Town Hall Island

Met up with Phil Shepherd of the Engine Room, and coordinator of the Island Project. What a lovely, passionate man. We talked about the practicalities of the business-side of the redevelopment, his aims for the new improved Engine Room and a possible fund raising gig that is being talked about for December. All exciting stuff, can't wait to be a part of it.

Just got back from a cider making demo at the Rural Life Museum in Glastonbury - how hilarious, there was a gang of misfit Morris men and people dressed as weird animals that were going round scaring children, oh ok, maybe it was just me that was scared... (I'll post the pictures for you to judge yourselves) The smell of the apples being pressed in a cold barn was strong and autumnal. Didn't get to taste the stuff though, apparently it needs a couple of mouths to ferment.

To top off the slightly eccentric day, as we were passing through the Hamp Estate in Bridgwater, a grey cat walked across the zebra crossing right in front of the car! What a sophisticated feline...
