OK, so a trip to Cricklewood isn't quite as exciting as going to Greece, but still worth a quick blog!

This was an event (on 12 July 2007) for repeat volunteers (anyone who'd done at least 3 trips was invited) and was great fun - lots of food and wine, great talk from an African fellow, Nigel repeatedly telling us how wonderful we are (always good for the ego!) and everyone with 10 trips or more was presented with a certificate and a souvenir book of photos from their trips, which made us feel really proud (if a bit embarrased!).

We leave again for Greece in 5 weeks today! We're travelling by train this time, which will be an experience.... We're going with Claire (her 15th trip) which must be some sort of record - 3 volunteers on one team with at least 15 trips each! Claire's been booking our train tickets, which has proved to be a complete nightmare - the travel agency don't seem to have a clue. But it's finally sorted - just got to decide which ferry to catch from Italy to Greece.
