Looking forward to attending this evening, although am coming straight from work so don’t have the mini cards on me. Also forgot my speedos Who else is coming along?
Great almost confirmation news for our community bid for the library & great news going forward for the street art under the railway bridge & info on what to do next.
Maybe Chris has taken some notes, I didn’t as I was doing an update on FHFW & I never feel comfortable standing & speaking at the front of a crowd, so was nervous doing this so missed out half of the events, but no one questioned it, so must be happy with this. So great there will be even more free events than what all are expecting
Michael gave updates on a few things & came across fab as always.
The great surprise for me & all is that LC Assembly Funding have said they will give £5000 to the new community library for a project. This had us all gobsmacked & none of us involved knew about this. I shouted woohoo! just by natural reaction. Maybe I shouldn’t have.
But guess what, I’m so super excited about this & so was everyone else too
ETA I think @anon5422159 enjoyed meeting @JohnRussell tonight & @JohnRussell is a great friend of mine. The talk was all about #Photography maybe @stefan74uk another great friend of mine might want to talk about this on Thursday, can you make it Stefan 7.30 at Sylvan Post Xxx
Loved the meeting and the drinks afterwards. Great to meet @Simon (sorry we didn’t get more chance to chat), @JohnRussell, and to have more opportunity to talk to @Michael, and also to @MajaHilton.
Was really impressed with Michael’s talks in particular - came across really well, and to a tough crowd on one or two occasions
It really struck me last night, as a newcomer to this community, just how much is going on in the Forest Hill, and how many community-spirited people are working together to make their area better.
I didn’t take notes, sorry. Only a few names and Twitter usernames. Your update about FHFW was good Pauline, it’s only reading the above that I realised you were nervous about it. You came across well.
