Ladies enjoy Pat Hall night
AT THE September meeting of the Loughborough Ladies WI, members were very ably entertained by the comedienne and poet Pat Hall. Pat’s stories and reminiscences had everyone laughing.
The next meeting will be held on Thursday, October 4.
This meeting is the AGM when officers and the committee will be elected. Following this there will be a talk from a representative of the Dogs Trust.
Ladies are also reminded of this year’s charity and asked to bring decorated shoe boxes and gifts to make Christmas presents for ladies in a local Women’s Refuge.
There are a number of clubs run by the group, including a Book Club, Coffee Club, Cinema Club, Craft Club, Supper Club and Theatre Group.
The Book Club continues to meet on a regular basis, reading a wide range of books. The next meeting will be held at 7.30pm, on Thursday, 8th November 2018, to discuss ‘A Rising Man’ by Abir Mukherjee. This thriller is set in Calcutta in 1919. The Group meets at the Beacon Public House.
