Palm crosses

On the evening of Sunday 29th of March a group of about seven met in the church hall to make palm crosses for Palm Sunday. In previous years the late Ann Brown had always made them - another of the jobs that no one knew needed to be done until after her death. Now about 3 people fill the
gaps. A few of us had done this last year but I must admit I had not
retained the instructions. Fortunately Richard had printed an
illustrated guide for us to follow. This still managed to flumox most of
us even after Richard gave us one to one tuition! Once the nack of
folding the two strips of golden palm in the correct order had been mastered the conversation flowed and the basket filled up with finished
crosses. It was a pleasant hour spent in useful fellowship and I look
forward to doing them again next Easter.
