Thank you party



An amazing thank you party took place on Saturday at Eachwick, just outside Ponteland, where Charles and Rachel May kindly lent us their house and gardens; we had 200+ people come - who had all helped to stuff envelopes, put up signs, deliver leaflets, canvass or tell on election day.
Every volunteer was given drinks and a hog roast - paid for by me [and not on expenses I should add]. The hog roast was produced by Anguis Nelson and Richard Dodd and was delicious. Quite an achievement to feed 200. As Richard commented there was not a vegetarian option.
