Fairtrade Wine Tasting & Flower Design Demonstration for Fylde Borough Council

Welcome to an evening of Fairtrade, Flowers, Food & Wine at The Lindum Hotel

Jason doing a tasting of Red Wine " Los Robles" Carmenere from Chile, £4.99, the room was awash with Fairtrade supporters and wine lovers!
Everyone without exception enjoyed this one, it's available from Booths in Lytham.








This is the extremely talented Janice Flynn, Janice has organised an evening of Musical entertainment, Janice will be singing along with The Frank Flynn Quartet at The Edge in Poulton, 18th March, The tickets are £5.00 and all proceeds will go to The Blackpool & Wyre Alzheimers Society, to book and I strongly reccommend you do call Janice or Frank on 882015.

I really loved this particular design, it reminded me of a birds eye view of "Fairtrade" farmers fields, I've used some Viburnum Opulus, Paper Whites, Arabicum and mosses.
