We have a lovely day out at the weekend at Bore Place Winter Workshop. We got our second choice of events which was Victorian Christmas Cards. Lots of card paper and glue later we have a lovely selection of cards. We were a bit anti-social and had a room and table to ourselves but people kept popping in to join us and see what was going on. It is such an idylic setting that your creative juices keep flowing.
This was followed by a great fun story telling where we all got to join in then yummy organic lunch. We had beef stew (squash stew as a vegetarian alternative) with rice and organic vegetables followed by organic local cheeses and fruit. Nick got quite excited about his orange still having a stalk.
This was followed by country dancing where the youngsters joined in. I am not sure that they quite got the hang of it though as they often seemed to be on the same side or turning the wrong way. The musicians and caller were great though, even I could have followed the dance.
While they were clearing the barn after lunch, to get ready for the dancing, we had a walk around the farm and the allotment. The cows were in the barn waiting for milking and they were so docile and friendly that I must share a few of them with you.
