** knitting n nattering - yet again **

Hello there -  We did parkrun at 9 am on Saturday morning, then we showered, we had cooked breakfast in the local café and then we had a stroll down by the river to town. To our surprise there was a classic car show going on down on the riverway walk.  We stopped and looked at some of the cars on our way

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These scenes were on the outside of the car - fabulous

 

These chaps were sitting on the front seats - obviously keeping guard!!

 

 

 

 

 What an old jalopy - but what character

 

 

This is an old Isle of Wight licence plate before they went metric!

 

 

The Tea n Biscuit Boys were playing a few tunes

 

 

I love the character of this old building across the river

 

 

 

Can you see our shadows??

So on we went to knit n natter

 

 

 

Three children - two boys and one girl who have come along with their Mums for a few weeks have now said they want to learn to crochet and make squares with us and here they are having a go

 

 

This is what they started to make during the afternoon and there will be more about them another time

 

Thanks for popping by

PS

 

On my way home I popped into the local village church to look around the Horticultural Show

 

 

 

 

 

 

OOOOOoooohhhh that is mine - I made this back in June and thought I would enter it in the any other handicraft class - so what a lovely surprise when I popped in to see that I had won 1st prize and "Best exhibit in handicraft" - for which I got this certificate and cup
