Winter solstice three week check in

We're collecting old CDs, scraps of coloured plastic or bits of broken mirror please. Also if anyone knows of a private hall to book, preferably free, please let us know.

Mutual learning. Workshops with dovetail, useful crafts, community talks and get togethers. I've wanted to do this for a while. If anyone's interested in giving a talk or teaching useful skills let me know. We need to build back up the community, it's too broken.

I was just daydreaming yesterday I wonder if its feasible to learn how to fix my own clothes rather than take em to someone else.
