Wirral Writers Autumn Sunday Dinner

Doesn't time fly? 
Here we are again approaching Christmas. We had an early Sunday Dinner this year as our 'Lunch Calendar' became a little fuzzy round the edges - like after drinking too many G & Ts.
We ate at our usual haunt; Brook Meadow Hotel, Childer Thornton. This year saw 13 of us, sat down to dinner together; including new-comers/first-timers, Mick and Amy. Some brought their partners or friends, some came alone.

As is our custom, we all brought a piece of Flash Fiction - 200 words on the theme of Sunday Dinner. This year we had an interesting mix including poems from Nick, Mick and myself (though not a natural poet, I like to flex my rhyming muscles on occasion!)

After dinner we read our offerings then played a written version of the Exquisite Corpse - Each collaborator adds to a composition in sequence, either by following a rule or by being allowed to see only the end of what the previous person contributed.

The results were interesting and in one case, hilarious.

We were missing a couple of people; due to illness (get well soon) and in one case, swanning off in his caravan to enjoy warmer weather elsewhere!                                          
 I believe everyone enjoyed themselves and it was lovely to meet those who were supporting their partners and friends in their writing endeavours.

The Sunday lunch was very enjoyable and the new owners were attentive. Having a room to ourselves makes the occasion more of a party. It was a shame not everyone could come along. But there is always next year.
