The Mix-M-Up Group has been very well attended this past year with Helena Heathcote, Cynthia Brett, Elizabeth Higgs, Margaret Clack, Graham Hibberd and John Lawrence being enrolled into the Mothers Union in October. We meet every third Wednesday evening of the month at the Parish Centre or St Lawrence Church Centre.
Our meetings have included a talk by Andrew Cole about Chyp in January, Flower Arranging by Amanda Wheatley in February, Banner Making by two members of the Methodist Church in March, an excellent talk by Reverend Warwick Heathcote “Journey from Graham Town, South Africa to Watermoor in April, and an informative talk by Martin Evans from BBC Radio Gloucester in May. In June we visited Gloucester Cathedral and John Lawrence was our wonderful guide. In July we visited the Three Choirs Vineyard and this proved to be a most enjoyable evening. In August we met at the Greyhound, Siddington to plan 2008 programme over a light supper and glasses of wine. In September we attended the Eucharist service at the Parish Church and afterwards enjoyed a shared supper. We held a Jewellery Party in October when most of Mix-M-Up bought some attractive good value jewellery. A really excellent talk with slides was enjoyed by all in November given by the well known sculptor, Rory Young and that brings us to December when we all enjoyed a Christmas meal at the Fleece Hotel.
We have a wonderful programme for the rest of this year and invite everyone from 16 to 100 to join us. We really enjoy Christian fellowship, friendship and fun.
