My name is Alex Harvey.

I am leaving this comment to enquire about the image on this page of the Butternut Squash and Garlic Soup.

I have had to leave the comment here as I could not find your email.

I was just wondering if I could use the image in question in my GCSE Dida course.

Please email me with your reply as soon as possible.

Yours,
