CROSS-IN-HAND WI: All our meetings are special, but this one was extra special as we filled the hall with all our invited guests. How lovely it was to see so many new faces to share with us the lively entertainment from our speaker, Peter Wilson who spoke to us about Music from the 60’s. Peter played clips from all our teenage favourites and tested us on our pop knowledge. By the end of the afternoon we all took part in writing our own song, a number one hit in the making so watch out for our debut album. Cakes and plants were available to buy on our sales table and our flower of the month competition was won by Jane Matthews. Birthday flowers were presented to Gill Poulton.

Our meeting in May will be when we discuss our WI Resolutions and enjoy a cream tea, and for our June meeting we shall be hoping for a sunny afternoon for our annual garden party. We meet every fourth Wednesday in the month at the Cross-in-Hand Village Hall at 2pm. New members and visitors can be sure of a warm and friendly welcome, so why not give us a try. Transport can also be provided. For further information please call Anita 01435 863479 or Dawn 01435 868388.
