Ladies, I know I don’t need to tell you because you’re all very sensible, but unless you absolutely have to go out , for the next few days I’d recommend staying at home, in the shade with a fan on! And drink lots of water! It is going to be exceptionally hot and sticky, so stay safe x

Ladies, just something to put in your diaries. We ARE open on 26 June (Michele will be running it as I’m away again, yes, I know I keep leaving you!) but we are CLOSED ON 3 JULY as the hall is being used for preparations for the Rotary Fair on 4 July. Michele will remind you on Friday but something to remember xx

Ladies it’s going to be Scorchio today - really really hot! If you are coming along to see us this afternoon, don’t rush, and if you’d rather sit this one out in the cool of your house or shady garden, I completely understand xx ☀️🥵🔥🌞
