The May meeting is 'Resolutions Time' and this year's were briefly
discussed and voted for. They were all topical and have been included
in government and opposition party policies, so it will be interesting
to see what action may result in the course of time. They included
cocnern about children's diets, exercise and health; care of older
people; vocational training to fill the gap in providing skilled workers.
Business was brief to allow member Marion Foers to give an illustrated
talk on "Anybody can draw!". Using basic shapes she showed
how anybody can draw an elephant, a clown or birds, all of which could
then be transposed into collage work. Members then used their drawings
as patterns and, with a variety of fabrics, braids and trimmings,
produced individual collages - quite an achievement in a realtively
short time - and quite a busy, chatty group!
Next month's meeting is June 4th when David Self will be talking about
backstage preparations and happenings at a T.V. quiz show - quite
revealing! Why not come and join us - 7.30pm in Castle Bytham village
hall.
Marian Foers
