Dear

Hope you are all well and
have enjoyed some sketching outdoors while the weather has lasted?
I'm just letting you have

It might be colourful and I think its a worthy cause anyway for health,
environmental and animal welfare reasons.
Might see you there and, if
not, catch you sometime soon.
Best regards,
Carmel H
