Daffodils, Cakes and AGM

17 Jan

When we arrived in Redruth in 2008, our lovely neighbour turned up with a jam jar full of local daffodils and joined us on the floor (furniture arriving the next day) to share our Chinese takeaway. Every year since, on the anniversary of our arrival, she has come round with daffodils. Just the best neighbour!

The cherries didn’t sink in the cake and the Victoria sponge was a huge success. As well as being my favourite, it is clearly loved by many.

It was the AGM of Community Roots this evening, a fascinating account of what is being achieved and what  hopes and plans there are for the future of the project. I share three of the slides here with you, apologies for the slight fuzziness.
