Button pressed

… generous donations, I've been able to push the print button, ordering copies of our leaflets and posters from our friendly (he knew Jessica for years) printer - 11,000 in total. It sounds  a lot to me, but to get them spread as far and wide as I'd like we'll have to print an awful lot more.

I should have them in time to take to the South West regional CEMACH conference at the end of the …

This photograph is hanging in poster size on their bedroom wall, so that they will never forget her.

An Inspector Calls

… my home printed business card.

"Can I have another card, to give to my friend? And do you have a poster? I could ask in the office if I can put one up on the notice board."

I don't have a current poster, the only one I've ever designed was promoting the now closed petition to the Prime Minister, so I've spent the rest of the day designing a new one.
