Could possibly do craft, depending on what’s needed cos from a techie point of view I’m not brill, but happy to learn. Crafts like sewing, knitting, paper maché, jewellery making - have to say for fun, rather than a self-sufficiency point of view - pls let me know.

Brilliant - thanks guys. Will put you down for that then.

Claire - maybe you didn’t get the previous newsletter - the group hasn’t yet been set up - that’s why you can’t join it :slight_smile: Hopefully it will happen this week.

As far as the bee topic goes - Bee club is going into the new group as the topic host - apologies for confusing you…

I’m happy to host bee topic, although is it really necessary given the existing beekeeping group? Surely it will lead to duplication? Also, I’m trying to join this group, but can’t work it out (again!) Clare
