Don't forget The Clap and The Lamp

Dear All,

Not only have we The Clap, at 8pm, we also have the Lamp/ Torch at 8:30. For anyone Not aware, this is to 'mark' Florence Nightingale's Birthday- two hundred years ago. Everyone is being asked to 'Shine A Light', through a window. I have had my Solar 'Charger/ Torch' on the windowsill all afternoon. I thought that a Solar Light might be a 'Good Gesture', of respect, for the Lady.

Please DO take part everyone.

It was at 8.30 Tuesday night , put a light in your window. We did it but no one else nearby did. Just admit it wasn't very well publicised x
