artistic rumblings....

Well the Hay-on-Wye food and drink festival lived up to expectations, a lovely town, lovely weather and lovely people... what more can you ask? Didn't get the chance to find out who the artists were but these mobiles looked really great, and they've got me thinking of a 'heath robinson' version of making scotch eggs for the eggshed shop

Meanwhile we were stretching things again with Penny returning to Moseley farmers' market, think it was September 08 last time we let her loose in the city streets, as usual a well supported event although on the way back she got stuck for a while in what can only be described as a cloud burst... torrential rain, thunder and lightening... really localised as wall to wall sunshine with me and Lotto who covered Cirencester farmers' market ( no celebrity excitement reported this week, sorry)

A pleasant day, just what she needed, after the dramas on Friday, when returning to collect the van after Cheltenham farmers' market she was involved in the discovery of a body, a poor chap looked as if he had died by the public toilets and Lotto called the emergency services, we are very proud of her, a lot of people would have walked by not wanting to get involved but with telephone guidance she checked for vital signs, only to confirm he was already dead, and waited for the experts to come and take over.

Sunday finds us back in the eggshed, nice to get a few moments when things are a bit quieter, getting on top of things, with Crayley moving on our new book keeper Kieron starts tomorrow, although I'd better get off reasonably smartly as we're having a leaving party for Crayley and Lotto at home on Wednesday, a picnic is planned so the least I can do is cut the grass!

PS anyone else stay up to watch the boss at Glastonbury on the telly last night- awesome!
