November meeting and Update

It’s not every day I volunteer to have needles stuck in my arm and then have an electrical charge passed through them in front of a grinning audience, but hey – the things you do for your W.I.



November’s meeting another success methinks. Naomi from The Harmonies, the W.I.’s own girl band, dragged herself away from Peter Andre in Longwell Green Asda to come and talk to us about the album, her tv appearances and how we’re all going to get Jerusalem to number 1 for xmas (download from i-tunes on December 12th please).






Lots of tea, wine and cake while we tried to get round some technical difficulties (2 laptops, 2 projectors and a memory stick and we still couldn’t get powerpoint going). Fortunately, our star turn for the night, Dr Freya Scott managed to talk us through the mysteries of acupuncture with only the help of a small white plastic man, and a not-so-small W.I. president. Fascinating stuff, lots of questions, really enjoyable.
