HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY OFG

11th February 2014

This was our first meeting of the year and there was lots to catch up on.   We had a long show and tell, chatted about the years programme and Caroline showed us some scrumbling before the workshop planned later on in the year. Then Audrey blew out our two decade candles.
