Our Group Meeting!

 We welcomed some members from Paignton WI and from Galmpton & Churston WI to our afternoon ….which turned out to be not a Treasure Hunt after all!

Instead we drank tea, played an excellent quiz and then ate some delicious sandwiches, scones and cakes! Everyone agreed what a fun and friendly afternoon it was! The treasure hunt is postponed! 

The quiz winners won an egg cup and crème egg!

There was a fab prize for the team at the other end of the scale!

A huge thank you to Lynn, Jayne and Ann for planning and organisation. Also to all of our kind and clever cake makers, and to the hardworking folk who slaved away for us in a hot kitchen. Thank you all, we really appreciate your efforts and we will take our turn next time!

Treasure Hunt today!

We are going ahead with our treasure hunt and afternoon tea today! Wear a raincoat just in case there is a shower! We are all looking forward to seeing everyone!  (There is a plan B if necessary!)

Silver Workshop

 Here are the photos from the workshop today! Everyone has made a beautiful pendant with matching earrings.

Great silversmithing workshop! Big thank you to Mary C for arranging

Didn’t we do well! Thanks to Mary for organising it 

Really hope there will be another opportunity. They look fantastic

Gosh they look lovely, wish I could have come along but I am sure there will be another time to do it. Well done.

Really enjoyable afternoon, and really lovely items to wear and enjoy. Thank you Mary for arranging it.

Beautiful.  Well done!
