The annual garden party by the group helped to mark a special anniversary as the group turned 90 this month.

The match took place at the home of the Matching WI president, Mrs Jean Morgan at her home in Little Faggoters.

She welcomed guests with pimms and a afternoon tea, as well as a large birthday cake, baked by Katerina Gerstorfer to kick off the celebrations in style.

Part of the display included archive scrapbooks of the groups early meetings, as well as recieveing cards from other WI groups.

The next meeting will be at 2pm July 8 at Matching Village Hall.

Gill Newman will be speaking on the subject of the ancient art of china painting.
