January’s speaker held members spellbound as they learned about the lives of country women of the early 1800s. From laundress to leech gatherers, their jobs were all back breaking and generally poorly rewarded. Fortunately they had the comfort of the lysergic acid present in the gleaned corn. It gives a whole new meaning to happy country folk. The WI lunch will now be held on Friday 12th February at 12.30 for 1pm at the Moon and Stars. The previous lunch was cancelled due to the snow.
The next meeting is an open meeting, so all may come including men! If you are interested in the wartime history of Letchworth which of course includes the making of the enigma machine come and listen to Josh Tidy of Letchworth Garden City Museum talk on Silks, Sirens and Spitfires at Wallington Village Hall on Thursday18th February at 8pm. Entry for non members is £3.
