The members of Heath Charncok WI welcomed Linda McMurray to their December meeting and Christmas Party.
Linda told the meeting about her life as a singer in Liverpool in the 1960. She has done TV work and shows, and has met and worked with many famous people.
She started singing at the very young age of 3 years and was winning singing competitions when she was just 8 years old.
Linda finished her talk by singing Bring in the Clowns and dressed as a clown, doing full makeup while she sang.
This is an act that she has done on stage many times and it can be seen on Youtube.
The members and guests enjoyed a wonderful buffet. The competition of a Christmas Cracker joke was won by member Pam Durrant.
Also at the Christmas meeting was an opportunity for members to view the finished wonderful quilted banner made for Heath Charnock WI's 80th Birthday year.
Each leaf gives the name of a member, where possible embroidered by themselves.
Each side gives the names of Presidents since 1937. The banner was put together by HCWI's Crafty ladies group.
