A well earned chilled Wednesday afternoon at STAND's meeting space at Cadham Neighbourhood Centre in Glenrothes. Lots of chat, great music and even a few questions asked and requests played. It's good to chill sometimes.

An amusing Wednesday afternoon at STAND's meeting centre space at Cadham Neighbourhood Centre in Glenrothes. Today we found out that if you cross a sheep with a kangaroo, you get a woolly jumper and that if you lay directly underneath a cow, you will get a pat on the head.

It's been a busy week for STAND members so far with an information table at both the Leslie Gala day and also at the Alzhiemers Scotland Conference in Edinburgh. Thank you to all involved. I have been thinking about you all whilst drinking cocktails and working on my tan.
