Member of the Month - July 2017

Lisa C

What made you join Cam City WI?

​

The Brancaster trip was so much fun, I wanted to expand my WI horizons with all the lovely ladies. So I knew a second WI was inevitable after that (my home WI is Castle) and CamCity's Wednesday worked with my diary… plus I'm not sure Bronwyn or Lisa would've let me not join!

​

Who inspires you and why?

​

Anyone who gets on and does it. It doesn't matter whether that's join a WI, learn a new craft, climb a mountain or a jog round the park. Do it, don't talk it.

​

What's your philosophy?

​

In so far as I have one: Do as you would be done by.

​

What are your Secret Skills?
 

  • I make a mean carrot cake.

  • I came 2nd for my age group in a sprint triathlon last year;

  • I can spot a typo a mile away (provided I have my specs on!)​.

​

What are your guilty pleasures?
 

  • Hill walking on my own.

  • Swimming in Jesus Green lido.

  • Reading a book in a day.

  • Instagramming Afternoontease to make lunch requests​.

 

What's your poison?
 

  • Earl Grey Tea

  • Vodka

  • Pale Ale

  • Chocolate

  • French 75 - I could go on!

​

If you had a million pounds, what would you do with it?

 

Do with a million - pay off mortgages, travel, fund libraries/buy kids books
Do for a million - play the lottery!

​

What's on your bucket list?
 

Well, if I had a bucket list, I'd tell you.​

​

What would your ideal day entail?
 

A walk up a hill or three with friends, in sunshine, with packed lunches, landing back at a pub for a restorative pint. And in summer, if there happened to be a tea shop or ice cream place along the way, all the better.
