We start with coffee at 11.45am - Cool Earth Coffee! - one jar saves on rainforest tree.

This morning Ken and Angela and I planned the food and  then went into the Hall to plan the event.

Afterwards I took photos of Settle:-

Here's Settle Methodist Church looking through an arch of the Settle Carlisle Railway line. The Church Hall is on a side alley left of the van with the black window.

And here is the Church Hall seen from Castleberg Flagpole

Here is the same picture but wide angle - can you see the hall - it is a third in from the left and a third up from the bottom.

 Castleberg cliff seen from Settle Christmas tree - my car is next to it.

The moon was rising as I drove home - the white line above the sheep is the Settle Carlisle Line
