I want to start a 'salon' on at least one Sunday afternoon each month, rather like an old fashioned 'at home' - you are invited for a traditional tea party; cucumber sandwiches, freshly baked scones and clotted cream, delicious cakes, a selection of different teas such as a first flush darjeeling or a tippy Assam, and perhaps a glass of fizz. I normally teach classes around this subject and love hosting parties. Stimulating conversation and an exchange of ideas and thoughts are welcomed.
