Thursday 20th November 2008 - saw a packed Village Hall in Wallington, when Sue Hutchinson spoke on her trips to Antarctica. John had taken the slides which gave a wonderful picture of this cold but beautiful region and its fascinating wildlife. We were also entertained to see the amount of clothing needed!
The Spender Cup for a homemade greeting card was judged by members and won by Joan Hoefkens.

Our New Year lunch is being held at the Moon and Stars on January 9th. Cost is £10. if you would like to come please let Sue Austin know.
