If you could have a cup of tea with anyone in the world, who would it be? What would you ask them?
Would you chat to an old friend? Sit down with your favourite star? You might even have a burning question for your four legged friend?
Take part in Talking Teapots with Scruffy Little Herbert at Newcastle Common, where you can decorate your very own teapot. Attached will be a tag for you to write down your question and who it’s for – whoever it may be!
Come along for free on Saturday 29 June from 11am to 3pm. Your teapot will go on display as part of an installation in the window of Newcastle Common.
Check out the Talking Teapots Easy Read.
