We've had a busy couple of weeks. Shed Opening Party last weekend at 18 Oxford Road with over 100 visitors, fabulous cakes, sunny weather and lots on display/for sale. 3 Shed sessions during the week, with people popping in to say hello. Busy stand at the Benson Community Celebration this weekend, with appreciation of what was on display, and lots of interest in the Shed.
