Open for transformation

On Saturday, this was just a plain, unadorned (but still lovely) wooden bench.

Over the last couple of days it has been transformed, as people have responded to the invitation beside it to 'write on the graffiti benches what you celebrate about Friends so we can CELEBRATE together'.

A selection, in no particular order, of the words people have chosen:
Silence
Messy benches
History
Biscuits
Parents
"If not now, when?"
Living love
Peace
Faith and action
Friendship
Having fun
"Be the change you want to see"
