Mick Denton started the evening with some requests for the members to ponder and answer at the next meeting.
1 We are looking for 2 volunteers to pick up the hall keys, open up, close at the end of the evening and then return the keys.
2 Next meeting is a Christmas event so please bring along some savouries, cakes drinks etc. Alcohol is not allowed in the Hall.
3 Should we restart interval tea, coffee and biscuits
4 We need a couple of volunteers to help with the audio visual equipment.
5 We need a volunteer for Programme Secretary.
If anyone is interested in the volunteer positions please contact Mick Denton at the next meeting.
The main part of the evening was a hands on with a couple of lathes set up for anyone to use and a sharpening station. Each was demonstrated by Gerald Hubbard, Roger Gilbert and Mick Denton.
There was a great deal of interest in the machines and the demonstrations turned into a tuition event with quite a number of people getting involved. This was a great evening and time passed so quickly.
The December competition was also run and there was a dead heat for 1st place. Dave Simms created a merry-go-round and Roger Gilbert produced an olive wood bowl.
Second was Bob Green with a table light.
Third place went to Colin Humphries bowl.
