🐉THRESHING DAY 29th SEPTEMBER - BREAKFAST IS SERVED🐉

On Tuesday 29th September at 8am we will be holding a breakfast release of Threshing Day! This is an UNTICKETED event and will be on a first come, first serve basis.

Day one release Hardback copies sold at RRP of £22

On researching the actual meaning of "threshing day" - it appears it's similar to a harvest festival, an old, agricultural term for a day of community, hard work and unity when 'threshing the grain' happened. To support this notion, I will be taking donations of non-perishable food items that will be donated to the Sunflower cafe (swipe for info leaflet) that is held in the EVI every Wednesday 🌻☺️
