A trip to Brick Lane Music Hall Theatre in London started off the month with more than 40 members, partners and friends boarding the coach at Papworth for London. They had a fabulous time with music hall style entertainment, followed by delicious afternoon tea.  A most memorable and enjoyable day out.

Choir:   Our choir, Lyrical Voices were delighted this year to be invited along to the Eltisley and Croxton Festival on Wednesday 13^th July to sing in the marquee set up by the Eltisley WI ladies.  It was a very successful evening with the villagers coming along for tea and cake and to listen to our varied programme of music.

Meeting: Despite our speaker for the evening being unable to attend, our programme secretaries thought on their feet as usual and came up with a really enjoyable Beetle Drive followed by a ‘Sitcom Quiz’. The competition was fierce on each table to complete the beetle in the quickest time and the noise and laughter in the room was unbelievable.   A great evening was enjoyed by all.

Next Meeting:   There will be no meeting in August although we will be enjoying another outing this time  by coach to Nottingham for a cruise and lunch on the river trent.  This will take place on 11^th August  and  looks to be a great day out.

Our next WI meeting will therefore be on 20th September.  Enjoy the summer break!
