Raising Awareness Taunton

We had an Awareness Day at the Orchard Shopping centre in Taunton although the local still refer to it as the Pig Market.

Not many photo's as Patrick and I set up the stand and did the first shift then it was back home to get on with a lot of outstanding jobs.

We were in a terrible position not a lot of foot traffic and a very large poster behind the stand but all in all a good day got the message out to a lot of people.

Patrick did a good job setting up the stand

Time to hand over and off for a cup of coffee it is not the same balloons

We have had a lot of heavy rain and flooding in Somerset, we have been quite lucky only problem was a roof tile off at Christmas but unfortunately the rain has come in through our South wall.

We need work on the roof and the wall has to be re pointed but the worse thing is our lovely hydrangea that we have been growing for many years has had to be cut down so that the work can be carried out as soon as the weather improves.

When we started the sun was shining on the wall

This was taken later in the day and you can see where the main branches were clinging to the wall
