The Women’s Institute

Last night i attended my first Women’s Institute meeting (Wootton Bassett branch) and i have to say it was ace!! There was going to be a talk on owls but the speaker is a gas man by day and there was an emergency so at the last minute a lovely lady called Madeline stepped up and created a quiz for us.

With questions such as “who wrote charge of the light brigade?” and “what is a group of crows called?”  – both of which my team got right!!  My team was myself and my friend Anna who came with me and a a very clever lady called Shirley, who if truth be known was kind of the brains in our team!!

Our team was named “the nerds” and nerds was right as we won!!! How good was that!!

Anna and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves so much that i have already signed up to the promises auction where i have promised to bake a choc cake for someone!! And we are also going to meeting where we are “hooking” up with the hook WI and will have an evening of tasting as they have a chef coming to cook for us… yummy!!

The Women’s Institute is not the old lady meeting that everyone thinks it is a great opportunity for a bunch of girls to get together and have fun and learn something along the way i highly recommend it!!

The next meeting we are having a lady from Marks and Spencers to talk about their underwear!!

Marvel 1602

Right I’m on to books the last thing i finished was Marvel 1602 by Neil Gaiman and winner of the quill award 2005.

Cover art for Marvel 1602

Cover art for Marvel 1602

The back says:

In marvel 1602, award-winning writer Neil Gaiman presents a unique vision of the marvel universe set four hundred years in the past. Classic marvel icons such as the X-Men, Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and Daredevil appear in this intriguing world of 17th century science ans sourcery.

Well that’s all i had to read before i was hooked and it didn’t let me down – I really liked it and if you’re a fan of any of the heroes that appear here you will be fascinated to find out how Gaiman placed then four hundred years previous.

I recommend this to anyone and everyone.
