It would seem that the all-too-rare high note of
genuine originality was struck by one of our members,
Gisela Revill, in her unique creation at the Church
Fete Jubilee Hat Competition. This inspiring entry
depicted an elegant swan discreetly bearing the obligatory
red/white/blue colours - a challenge to any professional
design yet displayed at Ascot's Ladies' Day.
The W.I. played a small part in the recent very enjoyable
Church Fete and also welcomed the opportunity to hold
a Coffee Morning on 19th June to help in raising funds
for Coltishall Primary School - hopefully just a forerunner
for the bumper success of their School Summer Fete
on Saturday 6th July between 11am and
2 pm.
An excellent Talk in June added to the unreal atmosphere
of a balmy Summer evening when we heard from a retired
Metropolitan Police Sergeant (Mr John Allport) about
the vast scope and diversity of investigations into
one particular crime network. The core conspiracy
and stratagem far outstripped any fictional plot,
all springing from the simple world of toys manufacture.
Our interesting visit to Cook's Chocolate Centre
will soon be followed by a River Deben Trip and Summer
Garden Party with a complete change of lunch venue
in a new Fish and Chips Restaurant.
