January's meeting was on the 8th - the earliest date possible. Numbers were just slightly down (winter chills, winter hols, who knows?) but the atmosphere was as lively as ever. No speaker had been booked as this was to be a social afternoon, All the usual events took place - WI business, notices, forthcoming events, competition and raffle plus two quizzes - as well as voting for Harlow's selection of Resolution choice for the NFWI Annual Meeting, and queueing up to renew membership. It was quite a packed afternoon.
