[Blackpool] Craft Council MAKE:SHIFT:DO

[Tony Hughes]

Hi Mike

This sounds great, as I said on Saturday I'll not be able to be there 
this week on Saturday but could come over on sometime on Thursday or 
Friday to help out if your not busy with tasks else where. I should be 
there on the 3rd September

Tony
