Minutes of the meeting 23/11/17

at Neos Sports Club, Pegeia.

Greetings Scribes:

Well, the homework, “write a story on any subject with an unhappy ending” which sounded simple, was not that simple. We obviously all have nice natures and like to give a happy ending, so this was a bit of a challenge. However, most members submitted a story or poem which kept the meeting vibrant.

Present: John Goodwin, Rich Palmer, Caroline Harman-Smith, Ann Joyce, Dee Leigh, Maurice Holloway & Carol Robb.

Readings:

John story It could happen to you

Ann story The little red tractor

Caroline story They do things differently there

Rich story Discussion on future story

Coffee break 11.00.am to 11.15.am

Maurice story Under the tree

Dee Post Pete, 2nd part.

John story Almost

Ann poem On Oyster.

Please Note: The Christmas break will be from 14th December returning on 4th January 2018. However, there will be a subsidised lunch at Neos for members and their partners after the penultimate meeting on December 7th

Homework: Write a story 500 to 1000 words on

“An alternative Christmas.” Avoid the obvious: Father Christmas and Nativity.

Thanks to all who attended, next meeting 30th, November

at Neos.
