Date: Tuesday 7th September 2021 ….
Venue: the Village Hall …
Would we remember what to do? Would we be rusty? Would anyone come?
Well, we needn’t have worried! The cooks, washer uppers, tea/coffeee makers & servers had NOT forgotten what to do after 18 months away, & loyal villagers (& new friends) turned up for a cuppa, bacon bap or tea cake & a good natter. What a lovely morning everyone.
Then the next evening, we decamped to The Shoulder of Mutton pub in Hamstall Ridware for our Skittles Night (& competition). A geat evening was had by all. The competition was stiff, but good natured & the buffet was fabulous. Hopefully, it won’t be so long till the next one!
Our September meeting was changed to the 4th Tuesday of the month – but that didn’t throw us at all! A welcome glas of fizz & cafe-style seating said ‘We’re Back!’ – & in style! That theme was carried on with our Speaker, Joanne Massey, who informed & entertained us with a wide range of stylish clothes form the 1950’s. Joanne talked about how she’d always been interested in ‘vintage’ clothing, even as a teenager… & could still get into first ‘vintage outfit’ she’d ever bought…. Envy followed – especailly concerning just how stylish & wellmade all these clothes were. A lovely evening to complete our first month back ‘in person’. The only way is forward now!
