I'm A Poster Girl!

We went into a coffee shop, and I went to the counter to order while Bob found a table. He sat near the window where there was a display of leaflets. The 'what's on in Norfolk' type of thing.
I ordered, paid, and went to sit down. And thought "Hang on, that's ME on that leaflet"
June last year, I went and helped at the annual Voluntary Norfolk event in The Forum in Norwich, trying to interest other people in volunteering. VN people all have bright pink teeshirts and red lanyards- unless they work with VN for the Community Health Trust, in which case they have plum coloured polo shirts and blue lanyards. And there I am, right in the middle - looking like I am in the wrong uniform. Well fancy that!

  1. Maybe you could get a photo of you holding that photo of you holding the leaflet.

    1. I believe that's called "The Droste Effect" after the design of the labels on Dutch Cocoa packets...

  2. That picture was also in the EDP a few weeks ago when they wrote about volunteers. I was going to tell you but then assumed you would know. I spotted you! Rachel

    1. It was last year, and I seem to remember they did, VN are very hot on not taking pics without permission
