Our first venture in 2016 included creating a decorated Christmas tree for the Capel Church Festival of Trees and Lights in early January. This year’s theme was “Famous People” and we chose Queen Elizabeth II, as this is the year of her 90^th birthday! Our tree looked beautiful, decked out in red, white and blue lights and tinsel, with laminated card baubles showing elements of the Queen’s life.

Why not pop along to one of our meetings in 2016, on your own or with a friend? We’ve got a good programme lined up for this year, speakers including a manicurist, a lady wood-carver, a wildlife expert and a theatrical costumier. There is a variety of outings too, amongst which are a visit to the Suffolk Records Office, a Badger-watching evening, a coach trip to the Greyhound Racing at Romford and a visit to the new re-cycling centre at Great Blakenham. Tempted to join us? Please do!
