Needham Market W.I. Our speaker in June gave us a peak into life and food in the countryside in Turkey. Jenny is a very lively and interesting speaker and we always enjoy her talks. At the time of writing we are still waiting to host the Federation Quiz here at Needham Market which should be a good evening. Unfortunately, our speaker for our July meeting is ill and has had to cancel but we are lucky that Leon Petterson has agreed to step in at short notice to fill the gap. Leon makes pottery for the National Trust and we are looking forward to hearing what he has to say. We don’t have a meeting in August but are going on a boat trip along the river Deben followed by lunch at the Maybush Inn - we are hoping for fine weather.

We hope you all have a good summer with plenty of sunshine and ice cream!
