Still trialling other writers, but will eventually go back to reading a bit of Blyton! Just too many books...

I was just looking back at the pages and Tony said that the Society Stall was a great success. I did consider buying a Journal but I thought I'll see if I had any money left later. I remembered that I needed to buy my friend a present. Spent £3 on it. Should of bought the journal while I had the chance, my friend came up to me a couple of days later and said she didn't like the book. I should of bought a journal while I had the chance. :evil:

Where is this year's write up? The link from the homepage just takes you to this thread? :?

Yes, it’s all in this thread and in the journal I guess.

I was thinking back about it, what a highlight it was. It was great to meet you all and be part of it.

Great to see you also Lenoir. Izzy and I enyoyed the event and the
picnic socialising as well. The only trouble is the lack of time to chat
to so many people - needed a couple of weeks.
