Coffee morning

It is glorious here today (that indian summer finally hit Scotland). Little Owl and I took the day off from our studies to help out with the Toddler Group Macmillan Coffee Morning. The idea is to raise funds for the cancer support charity. We bustled about the hall and all the wee ones were very helpful (particularly around the plates of cakes!). We had a great turn out from the village and everyone was really generous. I also love how it contributes to a general feeling of community. We all get together for a good cause but also get to chat and catch up. I rarely come away empty handed either. I went with my iced buns and raffle prize but came away with runner beans and a bunch of flowers from someone’s garden. It’s like a big old friendly swap shop.
