Things That Go Bump in the Night

With a chill in the air and the evenings getting darker, Ely City WI were (trick or) treated to a fantastic talk on Ghostly Ely at their October meeting.

Norah Gardner from the Tourist Information Centre gave a chillingly spooktacular insight into the eerie goings on in this area.  With Medieval Monks, Wandering Witches, Spooky Soldiers and Demon-Like Dogs; the WI were fascinated to learn more about these haunting tales.

As well as some rather tasty refreshments, a bumper raffle and jewellery swap; Members were able to chat and catch up and also make plans for some of the side group meet ups coming up (Diner’s Club, Litter Picking, Coffee Mornings).

Our next meet is on Monday 14th November 7.15pm at The Old Dispensary, St Mary’s Street, Ely, CB7 4ER.  As well as it being our AGM, the topic is “Cambridgeshire Badgers” and our guest speakers will be joining us to share with us the work they do to in protecting badgers.
