Official opening



Today was the official opening of the WI office on the Isle of Man. I am the federation secretary, which I took over in June.Its a busy post, but I think I am enjoying it so far.
The Governor of the Isle of Man's wife, Ms Katie Richardson, came to perform the official opening. She gave a lovely speech and cut the ribbon on the door. It was a lovely day, the sun shone and there was lots of creams cakes!!

So proud of my Son


Last weekend we went to Chester to see My Son Nathans final degree show. I can't believe that that he has finished his 3 year Art degree already! He is waiting for his results now so fingers crossed he gets a 2.1 as then he has a place at Liverpool University to do a Masters degree in Art history and curation
Here is Nathan with his exhibit all on a theme of blue as a melancholy colour and loneliness.
