We also made arrangements for our Christmas party on December 14.
Instead of having a speaker this month, we had an Iced Flowers workshop.
Margaret Smith, from Belford, gave an excellent demonstration, showing us how to make not only flowers, but also various Christmas items.

The worst part was clearing up afterwards.
The competition was won by Pat Newton; 2 Marilyn Martin; 3 Ann Thompson.
