Tales of the Lockdown … Episode 12

New Year …. new Zoom get-togethers for us in The Ridwares WI!     We got creative in another ‘craft along with Gaye’ session & made a post-it note & calendar holder… and felt very proud of ourselves in the process.  There’s always laughter involved when we ‘meet up’ – catching up on news, both family & local (as well as County & National WI updates) , & waving to each other is still an ‘event’.  Well, it is the only time we get to ‘see’ one another, isn’t it?   Fun & friendship is still what we’re all about in The Ridwares WI, Covid or no Covid….

Cupboards & wardrobes were raided for anything ‘tartan’ for our get-together to celebrate ‘Burns Night in the afternoon.  Whiskey & shortbread were also in evidence.  Anna reminisced about growing up on the West Coast  & how different things were when she & her family moved ‘south’.  We may  speak a common language, but the same words can have totally different meanings. Fond memories of Scottish holidays were also shared by many ladies. What a lovely way to spend the afternoon.
