It doesn’t seem like a whole year ago that we were just cautiously coming out of lockdown. Our picnic this month was the anniversary of our first in-person get-together in July 2021. Formally the new SCS group started earlier in the year, but our first meeting with ‘real humans’ that summer rather than rectangular people on zoom felt like a new beginning, so this years picnic was a nice anniversary. Numbers were slightly depleted this month, due to holidays, Covid, and the extreme heat. However, those who attended had a good day, and managed to stay cool with the help of a collection of gazebos. Our stand-in David Bailey this month was Sue P, so thanks for the photos Sue.
