Hello snowy campers!
Well we pulled it off against the odds on Friday – ballpark 400 people, around £1200 made. I’m thrilled (anyone who saw me at 4.30pm will know just how positive I was feeling at THAT point…)
Huge thank you to all of you who came early, put the kettle on, played the oboe, put up or took down the staging, put things on chairs, moved chairs, welcomed, tidied up, put lights on signs, lugged stuff around, looked after rough sleepers, wore a tabard, organised the Eucharist and sang loudly. I know there were a few who wanted to be with us but couldn’t – my thanks to you too for keeping us in mind!
I cheekily asked Anna and Jonathan Meyrick if we could do it again next year (I have ideas, I’m sure you do too – ooh it’ll be GOOD) so can we tentatively put the 16th December in our diaries?
On to the other business:
Our first Friday back is Friday 7th January - and this will be an open team meeting at the Old Deanery (opposite the Cathedral) at 7pm. Bring and share for all who are able and willing – tell us what you’re bringing on the sign up to the left please. And do bring your diaries.
Our first normal Friday is the 14th January.
Finally – Charlotte Page sent us all a Christmas card but I forgot to show anyone on Friday. It says Merry Christmas and I miss you, or words to that effect.
A massive dollop of best wishes for a peaceful and warm Christmas, and a fantabulous start to 2011.
Festive love,
Laura
Friday Night Coordinator
