When the party's over

It was a fine time at the Forest of Trees awards last week. The day began with some rain but sure enough the sun came out for the ceremony. (Jan Andrews was the winner of the Silver Birch Express Award.)

The first photo is of two of the posters put up for kids to sign with messages for the author. Mine's on the left, Monica Kulling's is on the right. (Thanks, Monica, for sending me the photo.) Pretty nice! The second photo is from the workshop on the banjo that I gave. My friends Rachel (fiddle) and Conny (guitar) are playing a couple of tunes with me. I'm on my homemade banjo. It was a good time. (Thanks to teacher Jane Mundell for the photo.)
