August meeting day, you would have found us at a new venue! thanks to the awesome efforts of Jan, who arranged it all, with some input from Brenda as well, we will be meeting at St Margaret’s Ministry Centre in Sandgate for the next six months, and hopefully continuing on after that indefinitely… a pleasant old building with verandah and all conveniences.
Brenda organised a bit of mind mapping that we all found useful and interesting – Kim might give a few more details in the newsletter. We did the usual show and tell, Secret Santas, and checked in on progress on “Windows” and 17th Degree.
Without further ado, photos
