At our tea with the Mayor of Brighton and Hove, Denise Cobb, on November 26, 2013, as part of winning the Edward Furey Community Cup. We enjoyed tea, and were delighted by the explanations given by the Mayor and her assistant (gentleman-at-arms), Darren, about the artworks, silverware and furniture in the Mayor’s Parlour at Brighton’s Town Hall. Below pictures of, among other things, cake-eating and mace-wielding. Not the average Tuesday afternoon gardening session.

Oh yes, and click here to see what our Mayor was doing just before she met us for tea.
