Well done with the festival Becs and an especially bouquet for the coffee! I sold a lot of moon calendars and 'natural cleaners' charts and met a lot of very interesting people, including an author who is encouraging the production of a book on the heritage orchards of Southland. He's done the whiskey stills and had lots of good advice. I loved the Steiner group and their puppetty story telling!
