Birthday party

Congratulations Martha on organising the Birthday Party and thank you for all the time and effort you put into making it a success. Everyone had lots of lovely food to eat and it was good to see some new faces. I was pleased to exchange some glass for gems (and cash for those who were running low) It is great to see that the skills exchange brings so many people together to share their skills and their friendship. I personally have made lots of friends over the years that otherwise I would not have met. I have been busy spending my gems recently. Karina, Anna and Jan have helped me autumn clean now that Matthew and Alice are both away at university and Anna is coming back to clean a couple of carpets (brave woman) I am also looking forward to Flora sorting out my garden for winter. Last week I treated my friend to a hot stone massage with Anne. I am also looking forward to the pamper evening at Karina's After spending so many gems, I am going to earn a couple back by clearing Martha's garden of Kitchen debris and taking it to the tip. Thank you to everyone who contributes to the skills exchange and makes it such a success Cath M
