THE speaker for the October meeting of Eckington WI was Richard Kendrick who took us “Behind the scenes with a film caterer”. He gave an interesting illustrated talk explaining how he started in the business, how the business developed and the type of work he was involved in; needless to say, we enjoyed the titbits fed to us during the evening! After his talk and refreshments, the meeting continued with business. Members were advised of the opportunities to join the Group trip to Cardiff, the Group Quiz and the activities at the Hive. There were also reminders about our current initiative of collecting 100 items for a Food Bank as well as saving bottle tops for Guide Dogs.
Our next meeting on November 4 is a talk on Silver Engraving by a local resident, Vince Crowley; this meeting will be open to members’ partners and friends who may find this interesting as Vince engraves on rifle butts!
