BLANDFORD Evening WI’s first meeting of the new year is always the one where the resolutions are discussed and voted on. After a brisk discussion and a conclusive vote, the results were announced and noted for relaying to the County Federation Office.
To lighten the mood after the serious business, four of the ladies who attend an art group displayed some of their work.
Karen Howell, a serving member of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary, gave an insight into her life at sea on missions around the world. She described her apprenticeship and showed images of her performing her secondary duties as a first-aider and a firefighter on board ship.
The evening ended with a surprise game of bingo.
