For the first time in 18 months .........
We were able to meet in person, something many of us have greatly looked forward to, whilst still being concerned about keeping safe. We’ve moved our monthly meetings from the Library, who have not yet reopened their meeting rooms, to the Quaker Meeting House, which is just up the road from Cass Art and The Bluecoat. It’ s a very accessible space with lifts, and we are using the library, which has opening windows. We were able to space the tables and so were as safe as we could be. Our book this week included a moveable hinge , and is also also known as a 'Waterfall structure,' although ours was slightly modified. Many examples are available on You Tube.

We also shared books we had enjoyed making during lockdown, including a complicated “Find the Lady” from Jac, and other pieces of work, not all books. Many of us had found that inspiration came and went over the pandemic, and that continues as we find our way towards a new sort of normality.
After discussion, we agreed a new theme in the run up to Christmas, which is..................
“First Saturday connections”,
{Same destination but different journeys}
referencing the fact that people travel to our meetings on the first Saturday of each month, and make connections both personal and in transport terms. Make of it what you will, we look forward to seeing the results!
