There was a real buzz at yesterday’s BEWI meeting. Lots of happy people chatting and sharing their latest news. There was a warm atmosphere, it may have been stormy outside (did you avoid the puddles!) but inside it was cosy, cheerful and welcoming. In addition to the usual monthly events, this month we decided to raise funds for our charity, Maggie’s in Southampton (cancer support specialists). Our fundraising continues for a year and last night we added £148 to the collection. Well done everyone who contributed. Next month is, of course, our Christmas meeting so time to dig out the sparkly and outrageous jumpers. Only 46 shopping days to go as well as sending in a photo for the competition, brushing up on our singing for the Carol Concert, baking a couple of cakes, going for a healthy walk at the start of December and then there’s Wine Club – the list goes on.
