Thorpe Show


Congratulations to Sybil for not only winning the 'craft' category of the show but also winning 'Best in Show' - a well-deserved and very popular result.  The WI craft stall proved a great success as well - thanks to all members who supported the stall both on the day and making produce beforehand.

September Meeting

Last night we were highly entertained by the lovely Milly Johnson - author and "Come Dine With Me " star.  She is (as you would expect) a fabulous story teller and kept us amused and chuckling all evening.  We could have listened to her all evening and its great to see that she is still a proper Barnsley Lass at heart. ( I loved your frock too Milly). 

 She brought a selection of her books along to talk about, and when I got home I discovered I already had a few of these on my "to read" pile - I shall have to get stuck in!
 We had on sale a few of the bags etc that we have been making at our craft evenings.  The rest will be on sale at the village fair on the 15th September.  I think £6 is a fabulous price - bargain!!

 And one or two comments about the number of birthdays this month led Jill to explain that we September birthdays are in fact as a direct result of our parents enjoying Christmas a bit too much!!!  There's always one who lowers the tone!
