Weston Favell Evening WI

 

WI met in April and Annette the Treasurer was delighted to report that nearly all the members have renewed their subscription by BACS, cheques or cash and passed on her thanks. Two new ladies joined us on Thursday and we are hoping that our numbers continue to be very positive.

With lots of ladies paying there subs and the fashion show being set up, it was really quite hectic at the begining of the meeting. Diane the President welcomed everyone and gave out news of further events including an Ascot Ladies Day, tea at Great Houghton WI and visits to St Sepulchre's Church, and the Northampton University Campus at Waterside arranged by members of the Committee.

Then it was on with the show!! Fran, Denise, Viv and Penny were brilliant models for the evening and showed us some super trousers, tops, jumpers and dresses for the warm summer we are going to have. Jackie Allen who bought the rails of clothes, lots of handbags, jewelery and scarves for us to see was a great compere and as soon as the models left the catwalk, we could all seek out somne super items.

We did manage to fit in our refreshments between trying on clothes and searching for accessories. it was a very very long time since we had such an evening and it was most enjoyable. Of course, we announced the winner of the favourite piece of jewellery competition and plenty of winning raffle numbers too.

Our next Monday Meeting on May 15th starts at 2pm so come along enjoy a quiz maybe, bring your own sewing or knitting and even have a chat and a cuppa.
