Village showtime
Hello. Here's me playing catch up with the blog posts now. Pictures from the Summer Fair on Saturday on the village green. The usual array of stalls, charities fundraising, games to play, tombola, groups promoting their activities, bouncy castle, burgers and hot dogs, ice cream, school children singing and dancing, and independent traders selling their wares.
It was a bit slow in getting started. We are always there early putting up our cat rescue tables. I have them stored in my shed so it's only a matter of putting them on a trolley and dragging them across the road. Then Janet and Sue turn up with a couple of car loads of things to sell. So here are three general shots of the activities. The weather was just right, warm but not too hot, a hazy sun masked by the clouds.
The tea and cake tent always does well. A day when all villagers can get together and relax with a cuppa and chat.I skived off the stall for twenty minutes or so to take a look at the WI exhibition in the Village Hall. It was well laid out, with plenty of room to view the beautiful pieces of arts and crafts. I love the work they do, they are very talented. This bead work is fabulous, someone has a lot of patience.
Beautiful machine embroidery.
Hand embroidered pictures, clever ideas.
What a novel way to display stuffed hearts.
Exquisite gold work and bead embroidery.
There was an art exhibition in the church but I didn't take any photo's because the lighting is poor in there, and there were only a couple of artists showing and selling their work. It wasn't the type of painting which excites me, mainly landscapes, still life, and portraits.
Janet and Sue worked wonders on the cat rescue stall, the sales were up on last year, thanks to the kind friends who donate stuff to sell. Some of my shopping bags and cats beds sold. They usually do a few car boot sales throughout the summer months when they have time, which all helps.
It's another hot day today, too hot for me outside. If I do go into the garden it will be in short bursts. I need to trim the front hedges. Then I must go to the mobile library van before Stan disappears at 3pm to go to the school. I'll get off my bum and get on with some work now.
Thanks for popping in, we'll catch up soon.
