AND finding my new favourite tea in the Japanese shop near my house.
The light through the trees outside the office this morning.

Giving out free breakfasts to cyclists and making people happy on their way to work.
Doing the walk with the Mayor in the sun, feeling so proud that this was my idea and I did it all myself.
Packing up after the final event and walking back to the office with Laura, who is much funnier than I thought, and Stuart, who came down to help.

A tiring but great day!
