Many thanks to Cath Taggart for, yet again, entertaining us with a fascinating and fun look at the the 10 (+1) things that Yorkshire gave us, at our August meeting last night. Cath had been our Speaker on numerous occasions now, and we are constantly amazed at her knowledge of all things strange, surprising and interesting.

It was a lovely evening with 3 new ladies joining us, and some extremely tasty cakes provided by Kirsten and Annie.
