Meeting Number 2: 24/07/07

Meeting number 2 was another great success - particularly Bridget's cheesecake! Thanks to Bridget, Sophia and Laura for hosting us all. And I just realised we didn't give you our €2, so we all owe you... Also i realised that we were meant to draw three books out, not just two. Next time... Til then anyway, can't wait for the movie of Perfume. Catch ya soon, Fleur x
