Comments from Fay's last speech

Well, I had the paperwork from the AGM - but will have to fill in properly later. I think my motto this year will have to be - try and put those papers away - somewhere that you will later be able to find them!!! SO suggestions to think about in your WI:

1. Enjoy the friendship and have fun 2. Enthuse - share that fun - bring your friends along 3. Get involved - the more you know the more interesting it all is. Look at the Calendar Girls - little did they think they would raise 2million plus pounds for Charity. 4. Be creative - by trying new crafts - just having a go - you may discover a new you!! 5. Extend yourself - take that extra step - try something completely different. Never say NO - think about it - you don't know where a new interest will lead.

Well that's not quite what she said - but it covers most of it!!! Very interesting thoughts and tips - she did say something very similar when she came to our county 90th anniversary lunch!!! It is still very sound advice.
