A wonderful LPN social at Bedford Fields Community Forest Garden Huge thanks to Rahel Fitsum for bringing us a delicious Ethiopian banquet and coffee, to Val Arnup for perseverence in building our new (and rather difficult to assemble) BBQ.
Thanks to all the children, who collected the biggest ball of sticky w**d we have ever seen,
and to all who came and contributed to making it such a special evening.
