Overwhelmed!

Yesterday afternoon I was given a box of 7000 leaflets to be distributed in West Bridgford.
All very exciting when Malcolm of local printers Milward Printing knocked on the door but very daunting to think that these needed to find a good home in the next week or so.

So, I sent an email out to our wonderful friends of the Skills exchange and found that many of them were willing to help. Some could do with earning some gems, others were happy to give some gems to the community fund as they were too busy themselves to do the work and others volunteered their time and did not want any gems.

Since there is an abundance of apples and pears in our area, my son and I went out picked them and then turned them into freshly squeezed juice. We thought it might be a nice and refreshing drink for all those hard workers.

So when they arrived on our doorstep to pick up the leaflets, we packed them off with their bottle of juice, a Totally Locally West Bridgford shopping bag (printed by the kind people of South Notts College) and the leaflets. Young and old(er) turned up.

It trully was a hive of activity on our front door. See them all come and go....
