I would like to invite any interested BLF'ers to an informal Christmas get together at my place at Strathpine on Sunday 9th December.
It will be undercover.
Come along and put some faces to those names you chat with online :D
Bring some food or drink to share (something from your own garden is always good for bragging rights but not a necessity) and also your own chair if you are into comfort.
If you have seeds, any excess plants or crop to share and swap please bring these also.
RSVP is appreciated and family are welcome - please advise numbers.
PLEASE NOTE: RSVP on this site is needed to receive the email with the full address closer to the date.

That looks like lots of fun was had by all. Well done Lissa.
Take care Florence :) Looking forward to some bub pics in a few weeks if possible.
Thanks for your hospitality Lissa ~ Great catch up ~
Wow, we could have made it an all day event there was so much animated conversation and sharing of ideas going on! Wonderful day. Thank you all for coming. It is always good to get together with like minded people isn't it!
Thank you all for bringing plants, seed and good food and in Jame's case, his Mulberry wine, to share. Thank you for bringing your inquisitive natures and sharing your knowledge with each other :)
James, don't forget to have a look at Andy's "Home Grown Liquors" group - I think you and Andy would have a lot to talk about with your common interests.
If anyones cuttings or plants fail (easy in this heat) let me know and we'll organise some more.
We were walking and talking so much it was a bit hard to be both host and photographer but I managed to get a few shots off while people were eating and drinking:
Chris and I thoroughly enjoyed the day. Thanks heaps Lissa. Took the route
through Albany Ck. The Gap and Brookfield onto Mt Crosby and home, but stopped off at a friends at Brookfield and was offered some curry leaf root suckers. Have four potted now and will only require one, so three will be available in the future.

A lovely get together once again, thank to all for the friendship and conversation another learning day.
Thank you so much for the hospitality and warm reception Lissa, as well as my new projects! Thank you as well to Elaine for her generosity :) The Bay tree is now an official family tree :) My daughter laid claim on it and will plant it for posterity in her front garden. Its wonderful meeting you all! What a delightful group! Such a Blessing.... <3
Thank you so much for today Lissa, it was really enjoyable today. Sorry we overstayed but the conversation was just heating up! Merry Christmas everyone. Karen xx
Thank you Lissa for your hospitality and the plants :-) Good to see some new members along with the longer-standing members.
I won't be able to make it I'm sorry Lissa. Have a wonderful day.
Always add photos using the "From my computer" option, even if you are on a mobile phone or other device.
