Absolutely pooped after a non-stop day knocking on hundreds and hundreds (and hundreds!) of doors in Honiton. We had blazing sunshine and torrential rain & hailstones then sun again then more rainshowers leaving us with some very soggy leaflets!

Thank you to everyone who came to see the East Devon Green Party film screening of Food Inc. at the Broadclyst Victory Hall yesterday afternoon.
