Zuzu's Petals launch party

Before the guests arrived... Taking a peek at the fabulous grub... Here come the first of the guests... The glamorous bar-tender in the conservatory... Reading an excerpt... A stack of Zuzu's... After the reading... The view from Scarthin... Signing an odd one in a corner... Giving the results of the prize quiz... The view from upstairs at Scarthin... Toasting the host... A restorative walk the day after... Photographs above were taken by Isaac Hepworth. Thanks, Ise.

p.s. Mary Dalgleish won the prize, and when she got home, Gerry ate it...
