FAIRFIELD (DARTFORD) WOMEN'S INSTITUTE

Fairfield (Dartford) WI members held their birthday party this month. Each member had brought an item of party food for the buffet and we had a selection of drinks to taste.

The committee had organised some party games and a table quiz to keep us busy until it was time to enjoy the buffet. What a choice we had! From sausage rolls to gateaux, chocolate eclairs and mince pies. As everyone finished their eats, the birthday cake was cut by two new members of the committee.

A final challenge for each table was to make a hat out of different pieces of craft, the resulting hats were judged by the members and with a model from each team showing off their creation - Joyce Rose and her table were the winners.

The Christmas pudding quiz was won by Helen Wingrove and her table with each table member taking home a party bag full of goodies.

In December our WI is hosting the District Carol Service at Holy Trinity Church. The knit-and-natter group will be making many different Christmas crafts. The evening reading group seasonal book is Dicken's A Christmas carol'.
