Thanks to everyone who came – it was marvellous, and £75 was raised for Vegfam. Thanks to Alv and Paul for hosting the event.

Everyone is welcome at this meet – held in aid of Vegfam, with a free BBQ in return for a donation to the Vegfam ‘Gimme 5’ campaign that was launched at the BVF 08. Please bring extra food too if you like to share, and please mail Ellen first if you would like to come so she can prepare our hosts with some idea of numbers. Thanks very much to Alv for being press ganged into allowing us all to descend on his house for the first time, all Kate's fault I understand. By the way, Alv was voted superstar of the BVF by the rest of us, he was truly awesome dude! Fair shout and thanks very much for inviting us to your house too....
