From Lotte Glob…….
“Lotte Glob
Spring 2025
Croft open dates.
Summer is nearly here - and the croft is green and full of flowers blooming. Many of you have already been to visit the studio and croft since opening for the season in March.
Here is a reminder of my open week dates, the first is starting next week on Tuesday 24th and running to Monday 30th. You are welcome to visit between 12 noon and 4pm, no appointment needed.
The second open week will be 24th August - 1st September.
You will notice a fantastic sculptural addition to the croft entrance, with a new gate made by Sam Moore Barlow which was recently installed.
Look forward to welcoming you to the croft.
Best wishes, Lotte”

Please, in honour of someone who died or is fighting cancer or even had cancer, but was healed; copy and paste.
Everyone says, "If you need anything, don't hesitate, I'm here for you".
So I'm going to set a challenge, I think less than half of my friends will put this on their wall. Just copy (don't share) I want to know who I can count on when you're done write "done
