At last weeks meeting I took an Easter themed hands on.
I had seen an AI picture of a bunny and decided to make it using a cream egg as the base. We had a fun night and everyone seemed to enjoy it ,we had a good catch up too. We will not have a meeting in May unfortunately,as it was cancelled due to the hall being used for local elections . We are back in June see you all then. X
