Look at the weather now, what a shame. when myself and Tracy left we saw the children standing on the corner with our balloons, it was quite spooky really. I wonder if my balloon is still stuck in the tree?

Brenda I had a good time too and enjoyed meeting everyone. Vera and I left together and as we still had our balloons, we released them on Mosley Street at 1.50pm in bright sunshie. They floated away over the buildings so I wonder where they are now? Looking forward to the next meet. Lynne
