    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,
    Alex Harvey
