Hi all, I can't make the 14th as I'm working until 8.30. I'm also working on the 12th so can't make the gallery cafe event. Will see you all on Sunday though.

Leila - this is great, looks like a good place to get in with and I
tink it would be good to do the fete if anyone can.
Mary Pole the media intern at Oxfam has post the following blog on the
Oxfam website and sent it out to various online media publications
(she didn't say specifically what) but it's really good.

Alex if you can't make Sunday is anyone else able to print off an
email sign up sheet to bring along?
I went to TWSY today and they had run out of leaflets so I gave them
more. The music was fine for the event and it was pretty busy so
hopefully we'll get some of their regulars popping along!

> Like mad dogs and Englishmen you'll find us all out in the midday sun this month as we take our events beyond the cafe walls and out into the garden. Make sock puppets and smash crockery at our second summer fete of the year, take your knitting outdoors at our knit and crochet club, then wine and dine under the sinking evening sun at our Vegan Gourmet Night. We may never want this summer to end...

> Saturday 12th June, 1.30-11pm, free entry, donations welcomed
> This is an all dayer full of fete-al attractions, live music and performance. Spin the chocolate tombola, take a lucky dip, check your raffle ticket, or have a moment of catharsis with the mini crockery smash (smithereens donated to st mungos for mosiac making). Head to the garden for a rummage through the jumble, make crafy purchases at the art stalls, or sip a creamy tea and take part in ukulele jams. Free zine, stencil making and sock puppet talent show workshops will be running throughout the day, materials provided, lost socks welcomed.
>
> Live music from: L.O.V.E Cherryaid's finest The Bobby McGees. Described as "Dostoyevsky Doing Skiffle!" (Everett True) and often cited as the founders of tweecore pukering up for a glasgow kiss, expect cherry bombs, melodicas, full beards, and songs influenced by words seen written on toilet walls.

> Plus Minnie Londoner, Johanna Tordjman, Animal Magic Tricks and Rebecca Hope
>
> Entry is free, but donations will be welcomed.
>
> FRIDAY NIGHT JAMBOREE - 4th June, 7-11pm, free entry

>
> This Friday is still one not to be missed, with Rockabilly from the fantastic J.D Smith, contemporary Americana from Henry Brill and rootsy sounds from Benjamin Folke Thomas.
>
> If you fancy a chilled cider after work and an evening of laid back Rootsy vibes then the cafe is the place for you this Friday!

> 'The Rings of Saturn' by W.G.Sebald
>
> In August 1992, W.G. Sebald set off on a walking tour of Suffolk, one of England's least populated and most striking counties. A long project--presumably his first book The Emigrants, his great anatomy of exile, loss and identity--had left him spent. Initially his tour was a carefree one. Soon, however, Sebald was to happen upon "traces of destruction, reaching far back into the past", in a series of encounters so intense that a year later he found himself in a state of collapse in a Norwich hospital.
> The Rings of Saturn is his record of these travels, a phantasmagoria of fragments and memories, fraught with dizzying knowledge and desperation and shadowed by mortality. As inThe Emigrants, past and present intermingle: the living come to seem like supernatural apparitions while the dead are vividly present.
>
> The group welcomes new members of all ages, and as long as you've read the book you are invited to come along and join us on Monday 17th May at 6pm when we'll be meeting up to discuss the book over cups of tea and some cake.
>
> If you are interested in joining the book club, please email Natalie nataliejoe...@cantab.net beforehand.
