Well, all those worries for nothing. Binegar WI came up trumps as usual - got there earlyish to find Ruth W had been up and put out lots of tables and chairs in the main hall and got the chairs out for the afternoon old folks club - what a treat!! 6 different soups, lovely home made bread and fantastic cakes were prepared by members. Similar helpers to the photo of the Lent lunches further down the blog but Helen and Sue were on holiday and they managed to get Eileen dishing up the soup and Ruth making coffee!!! (the last two weren't as slick as the Lent lunch group - but they did show willing).
Good turn out of people (WI, Welcome Club and some villagers) and the B&B and raffle well supported. Everyone seemed to enjoy the lunch and stayed chatting for ages. Ashwick & Oakhill and Litton & Hinton Blewitt supported us and in total over £220 was taken - banked it straight away. Thanks to all our helpers both on the day and for the great food - as usual all members were really helpful - a great team effort - thanks again everyone.
