The Stratford Writers Group members enjoyed their monthly meeting.
This month the members used a newspaper headline as the subject for their 10 minute exercise.
The headline was 'It may be boring but it's vital.' This was a bit of a struggle, but everyone came up with great tales for the theme.
The homework for May was 'Childhood Idols', and the members had a different take on this subject.
One of the idols was Gladys Aylward, a famous missionary in China just before the Japanese invasion. She set off with a large group of orphans over the mountains to the interior of China where they would be safe. Then there were such idols as cowboy stars of the 50s and 60s.
