Hi all,
It's gone a bit quiet here so I thought I'd ask what you all thought of
the Mela that took place in Cowley Marsh Park on Sunday. We rather
enjoyed it and thought it was well laid out with lots of good things.
Well done to Nisha Prakash in the City Council for organising it again!

PS - Shameless plug: If you want a brain-stretch on a Sunday evening
then come along at 8.30pm to the Marsh Harrier where my partner and I
are running the pub quiz this week.
Is the Mela mainly a Pakistani or an Indian event? or both? Shame I missed it
but will go next year,perhaps it needs to be advertised more.A friend who has
just moved to Swindon claim they get 20,000 at Swindon Mela whilst Oxford with
possibly a bigger South Asian population only got 5,000.
