Two More Bank Holidays until Christmas ....

And the last one dawned nice and sunny but by 11am it was overcast, grey, cold and horror of horrors the 'R' word happened - it kept drizzling on and off - true to form it was the local PreSchool's Maypole Fete. That said though everyone had a good time - there was loads to do, plenty to eat, cream teas and a beer tent. There were tree climbling races, go karts, kiddie fairground rides, welly wanging, stalls and a load of other interesting stuff.Even the Fire Brigade came ....
These people didn't seem to mind the weather ....
Oh - and the most important thing of the whole day ... The Stall .....When we turned up, we were the only ones without a Tent. So after the third patch of drizzly rain, there was a quick dash to the local garden centre and bingo - a Gazebo with sides. We didn't bother to put the sides up but what a difference being under cover made. This is my daughter doing her salesperson of the year bit .... I did very well which was great; and I think my daughter has plans for us to do the School fete circuit this summer - with the Gazebo - lol ......
