The Upbeat Collective - JULY UPDATE

Hi everyone

Trust you are all keeping warm during these cold winter months.  Despite having a few mornings where I've wanted to stay cocooned in my bed, I've actually enjoyed wearing lots of layers (oh to be an onion) and draping myself in ridiculously long scarves.  In fact I have a purple scarf I bought from London years ago and I swear it could double as a blanket!

The screening of "Happy" was a success and I thank those of you who came along and braved the chilly, wild weather.  For those of you who are unfamiliar, "Happy" is a 2011 documentary film directed by Academy Award winning film-maker Roko Belic.  

The film explores human happiness through interviews with people from all walks of life in 14 different countries.  You can find out more on the following link: www.thehappymovie.com
