Website of the Month - River Cottage Community

Not that much help was needed with this Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria):

Vanna Art Exhibition - "Nature's Bounty"

Yesterday was the first day of my wife Vanna's "Nature's Bounty" exhibition in the Noverre Gallery at Norwich Assembly House. We spent Wednesday morning hanging the pictures.
The exhibition features over forty of Vanna's paintings including acrylics, watercolours and linoprints and continues daily until Thursday 23rd September 2010. The Assembly House is in Theatre Street, Norwich, NR2 1RQ.
