Committee "meeting"

This sunday your dedicated Spring Fling Open Studio committee along with the key Gracefield support stars were mainly falling in streams, falling in bogs and generally enjoying the sunshine and the amazing beauty of the Galloway hills.

Andy Priestman, committee member but this year not participating in the Spring Fling event suggested that we should have a committee hill walk and that he would be happy to lead us as he has walked the Galloway hills for years now and knows them well. I have to say we could not a have had a better guide or for that matter he couldn't have booked better weather for us.

The glorious sunday coincided with Rebecca's birthday. Rebecca had brought cake with her. At the top of the Buchan when we stopped for lunch Natalie unveiled another birthday cake topped with candles and Rhiannon pulled a bottle of fizz out of her rucksack. There is nothing quite like a well earned luxurious lunch in the sunshine at the top of a hill with the most fabulous views.

Spring Fling was discussed as were many other topics and it was fantastic to get together for pleasure rather than just business and without the strict agendas we usually have at the SFOS meetings.

At Andy's house afterwards there was . . more cake! Are you sensing a theme for the day here? Look what fun and great cakes you could be having, remember this when there is next a call for committee members!
