The Committee has decided to re-instate the raffle this week.
Prizes so far include :
A tin of sardines, sell by date illegible
4 reels of black cotton
Half a box of chocolates (Hard centres only)
As we have not had a demonstration for some time, perhaps we can prevail upon one of our members to give us an illustrated talk on the subject of their choice ?
The Committee is aware that many members are very talented and in these straitened times we must make our own entertainments.
Members will also be glad to know that the oubliette has been cleared and cleaned, ready for .....
Good evening ladies, I'm glad they've let you out ttfn.
I have brought a couple of tins of soup Spicy Tomato and a Cream of Parsnip, just slightly dented, a bottle of Dentex mouthwash. and a box of dates.
I hope you don't mind but I have also brought my knitting with me, winter is almost upon us, and my little Chumley needs to have a warm coat.
Hello champipple and Prudentia. (I think Matron may have got your name a little wrong champ - but please don't point it out, her eyes get tired these days, bless her)
True, I am from the spirit world and we have wine and all we need but, Tesco is only open for three minutes on st. tesco's day and we just can't all get round there, there are billions of us here in the queue even at the six items or less,.
The pussy is getting on a bit now ttfn, and a little threadbare I find it kinder to knit a warm coat for the poor thing.
I would be honoured to speak to the assembly, My talk would be about "The wonders of pearl and plain". If that is successful I will proceed with the "Garter for everyone" and "Advanced Cable". You will be spellbound.
I have a drinks trolley surplus to requirements. It is missing one wheel and the handle has worked loose. The veneer has worn through in the right-hand corner of the top tray and the bottom tray has unfortunately collapsed under the weight of the bottles.
But other than that it is in perfect condition. Works a treat as long as you don't want to push it anywhere. Any good for the raffle?
Oh gran please do start, I cannot turn a heel, only my ankle (unless alexanderd is taking me around the floor you understand). Talking of whom, has anyone seen the dark, handsome, mysterious 'a' yet tonight? M'lady - you cannot have set him to work at the moat,surely - there is a little nip in the air tonight and he has only just returned from warmer climes?
