The versatility of this lady is amazing. From dealing with the requirements of members needs for library books to being an accomplished cook.

Apart from being the Librarian, she is to be seen in the kitchen area at our Annual Shows serving countless cups of tea or coffee and also a selection of her delicious fancy cakes, volauvents, sausage rolls and cheese straws etc. Sheila has also brought her consumable wares to the Clubs monthly rendezvous and on occasions the members of the executive committee have also reaped the benefit when she has supplied the refreshments at their meetings.
