August saw the first Sundorne Community Fun Day . . . more to come in 2012. It was a lovely day, the weather was warm and the young people of Sundorne made a unique bunting featuring their own drawings. The Bunting has been hung in the Sundorne Lantern Library and Resource Centre.

During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces in the UK and around the world.
The aim of which is to raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men.

As a lady I can’t (yet) grow a moustache, however I can draw so I have joined in with Creature Mag’s call for Movember illustrations, here’s my offering below
