Alice and Friends,

I cannot see what used to be an essential item of equipment when friends and
I used to attend the Essex Lace Makers, Norfolk LM and Suffolk LM Lace Days,
Get-togethers, and any other Lace Days we could travel to - a Bottle-Opener!
I can remember one Lace Day in Suffolk, quite a few years ago, when one of
our lace husbands came up to our table and said he'd seen us before but
couldn't remember our names.   So - we told him, and he said in tones of
enlightenment, "Oh yes - I should have recogninsed you Essex lot from the
wine bottle on the table!"   (This was despite the fact that we did all live
in Suffolk!)

We don't now take our bottles, even though what we used to take were the
non-alcoholic wines - we thought the reputation may well take some time to
live down!

Carol - in a hot and sunny Suffolk UK - and hoping that Wales is going to be
the same for five weeks starting the 16th August!
