More networking and having fun

This weekend was really the start of the now constant socialising leading up to Christmas.

This evening we got together with other Transition Town members for a Christmas BBQ. The kids had fun running around on their two adjacent properties linked via a gate through the fence, walking amongst the chickens to get there and playing with the other kids. I had fun chatting and meeting new people and remembering why I joined this group.

After my wee solar cooking trial today I feel a lot better prepared for the solar cooking get together I'll be hosting with some homeschooling friends in the next few weeks.

Next weekend will see us attending "carols by the sea", doing a Christmas lights trail and a playcentre family Christmas party.

And just coz the consumer in me always seems to sneak out, I bought myself some fairy lights...at least they're solar powered...

(well clearly the shutter speed without the flash and my unsteady hand don't go together too well!).
