The Walking club had a lovely sunny walk around Medbourne on Sunday followed by a cheeky pit stop at a local cafe. Fiona shared with the walkers her newly found foraging skills which they all enjoyed and will now look at their gardens with new eyes!
Many thanks to Fiona for organising.
We had a lovely evening in March listening to Bill Haley and hearing all about his time working in the Royal Navy on the Royal Yacht Britannia. A really informative and interesting talk.
Our next meeting is Wednesday 24th April and we look forward to welcoming Colin Cohen who will be talking to us about the history of Social Housing.
Colin also volunteers for the Market Harborough Food bank and so we are asking for donations for that on the evening also. An email has been sent with the food stuffs they currently need so please do check your inbox.
We look forward to seeing you all next Wednesday
A polite reminder that annual fees are due by the end of March. This year they are £48. Payment can be made by BACS and we ask that you put the reference as ANNUAL FEES so it is easy to reconcile the account. Many thanks in advance.

What a great evening we had at our ‘Cocktail Making Masterclass’ social event at Louisa’s Bar last week.
Ian guided us through the making of a Pornstar Martini and a Long Bramble – both of which were delicious! We enjoyed some nibbles, and an evening with lots of chatting and laughter.

A MASSIVE thank you to Laura and Jess from Laura Lane Studios who came to our January meeting. Laura provided a make up demonstration and shared lots of valuable make up advice. Jess then did a hair demonstration showing the different ways ghd’s can be used to curl hair and again gave us lots of really useful tips. 
The luxury Laura Lane studios are based on the High Street and have 3 floors dedicated to natural beauty and helping you look and feel amazing. There is also an amazing cafe on the ground floor which is also well worth a visit. check out their website http://www.lauralanestudios.com for more information.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our evening and now will all be looking very glamorous!!!
Happy New Year to you all. We are looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday.

We also welcome our member Diane Claridge who will be talking to us about Reflexology and the many benefits this provides.

We look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday and if you have any friends or relatives who would like to join our WI please feel free to bring them along.
We all enjoyed our December Christmas Meeting. We welcomed Bronwyn Ramsey and Mel Reed from Cambridge WI who expertly guided us through the intricacies of learning various dance steps. We may not be Strictly level but we certainly enjoyed ourselves. We quenched our thirst afterwards with wine from Chris at Viva Vino and enjoyed trying out some of the different wines he had bought for us to taste. It wouldn’t be a true WI Christmas party without a dutch supper and a christmas raffle!!
