November AGM - text version!!

Interesting reports - good to hear just how much has been accomplished this year AND finances OK - hurrah!! 10 on committee for next year!! Another excellent poem by Ruth about the Somerset Annual Meeting AND she managed to visit the bar (said she had a bad cough - she did, but a drink soon soothed it!!). (Shame she missed the talk by the 69 year old from Kilmersdon who went to Denman on a 'fitcamp' - goodness that was amazing - but she did hear about Helen, hat designer from Litton). Next we had a play - an alternative version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves (Seven Dwarves played by Chris) - well received!! (Drama Team: Wendy E, Wendy B, Cynthia, Ann, Chris, Angela & Eileen) Glad members enjoyed it - we certainly enjoyed the rehearsals!! Well done to Ann our drama organiser.

Then it was time for a chocolate fountain break with strawberries, pineapple, marshmallows - hmmm ....... yummy!! Ruth borrowed the fountain from her daughter - good one Ruth!! Certainly very popular. Evening ended with another skit - The Carol Singers - with a final carol chorus which everyone joined in!!. Lots of chatter and a very relaxed finish to a great evening. Congrats to Helen and the committee - Helen returned for her third year as President.
