Saturday night meeting and Inga's birthday

A meeting at SEF (Southern England Farms), Leedstown, with Inga and Vadim who will be working with me on workshops in schools around Cornwall next week. It's the end of a long day for them both - a Saturday night. And in addition Inga's birthday! Am so pleased that they are willing and able to help. Discover, too, new things about them both. Vadim was junior dance champion of Latvia. Inga is a champion runner (representing her home town, Vilnius).
Outside it's a cold summer evening.


The local parish magazine is out and in it is news of The Hidden Life of a Cornish Farm, shot by Inga and three fellow workers. Grass roots coverage. Great that this way, at least, local people will hear about the neighbours they tend to have little contact with...
