BATH SHOPPING TRIP Friday 23 November 2018 We will once again be running our popular shopping trip to Bath. The Christmas market will be open and it is also Black Friday, so there should be plenty of bargains to be had.
The coach will leave The Spa on Dorchester Road at 8.30. We can also pick up in
Dorchester at Tesco. The coach will leave Bath at 5 pm and we should be home by
around 7 pm. The trip is open to members and also friends, so feel
free to invite friends along. We have managed to keep the price the same as the
last 3 years so it is still £15. I think you’ll agree that is good value. MAKE-UP DEMONSTRATION Monday 8 October 2018 Time 12.30- 3.00pm Venue: Weymouth Fire Station Cost: £15.00 Kirsten Sare is a professional make-up artist, who trained at the Delamar Academy of Makeup, London. She has worked on film, photo shoots and also offers bridal make up. Kirsten will give tips and advice to help you create your desired look. BOOK CLUBS WeyBay supports three book clubs. They meet regularly to review the suggested books - and enjoy a good chat with other members. Ask at the WeyBay meeting about joining one of these groups - or setting up your own. COFFEE MORNING  Thirteen WeyBay members including four new members met for the first monthly coffee morning outside the New Vic for the May coffee morning. They just walked over the road to enjoy coffee on the beach at the Boat Café. This is a monthly event meeting outside the New Vic on the first Wednesday of the month at 10.30am. All members welcome. See you there. WEYBAY LUNCH AND SUPPER CLUB
So far we have all enjoyed meeting up and having a good chat with members who we wouldn't usually talk to. It's been a good way of making new friends. There are about 30 ladies on the current list, which is now closed. In June, by which time we will have been meeting for a year, ladies can decide if they want to stay in the group. If some pull out, we will have room for some new members to join.
The photos shows club members enjoying a Christmas lunch at the Hayloft Restaurant on Portland. BOOKS WeyBay members are invited to bring a book that they have read and swap it for another. Many members add a short review. Many thanks to Sarah Holmes for organising the book swaps each meeting.

The WI lunch club meet every month. We are quite a large
group, but not every member turns out each month. There is a rota, so each
member takes a turn in choosing a venue.
We have had lunch or supper at some very nice pubs and restaurants. Anne
O'Neill started the ball rolling with lunch at the Ship Inn on the harbour.
Subsequent venues have been Cote in Dorchester, the Kings Arms in Portesham,
the Balti House, the Nothe Tavern, The Springhead Sutton Poyntz and the Cove
Inn Portland.
