Farewell lunch in our tiny flat for the ladies of the Craft Group at the British and Commonwealth Women's Association. I cooked, they bought loads of wine and champagne. I shall miss them!
After my farewell, it was time for Peter's. They said some lovely things about him and his management style which they had clearly appreciated. Apart from the two main 'speakers' others stood up to pay tribute to Peter. He was very touched and I was very proud. They bought him a new pencil case with his name on it (having been amused by his attendance at meetings with his pens in a zip lock bag), four enormous wine glasses and a beautiful carafe. Then, more champagne!
And now we are back in Norwich - unpacking, washing, ironing, sorting out! Back down to earth in fact!
