This weekend.

Every so often I sit down tired aching and find it hard to see the keys but i have a glow inside because this weekend has been so special. This weekend we didn't go to MITP because we spent Saturday at Little bridge House the CHSW putting up gazbos  for their fete. Then in the afternoon we got our own games sorted. Splat the rat, berties balls and buckets Jo's quackers or hook the boat, wellie throwing and even park the mini. The children paid a pound and had a go on everything at the end they got a token worth a pound, which they could spent at our goodie table. We were kept busy from the moment the gates opened I think I lost 2ozs on Saturday going up and down the rat Ladder.

Everyone worked so hard especially Penny who organised it, running around with her clip board. To be able to make children laugh is magic to make their Mums & Dads laugh along with them well is wonderful. All of us had a great time keeping the children amused but it was hard work. We didn't make a fortune but who cared, then at the end of the day we had to take down all the gazbos.

Today we went to Westward Ho and spent the time chilling out on the putting green whist the Lions club tried to raise a few bob for charity. Then it was Appledore carnival. I love carnivals and for some reason the carnivals love the minis. We get such a welcome and you would think the minis have got something special going on with the people of North Devon, I love carnival.

So now I am so knackered and I have so much work to do but lifes to short to worry about it. Just want to say a very big thank you to everyone who help make the weekend such a good one. God bless minis and the people who drive them

It's times like this when I read something like the above that I just wish Devon and Kent were closer together   well done everyone

We went to a Classic Car Show in Newton Abbot. 63 Minis turned up in aid of Help the Heroes. It re-kindled my adrenalin after IMM. We've now got a spare weekend coming up before something at the end of the month IIRC. See you all on the 28th.

Talking about glasses I've taken my 'new' glasses back to specsavers for about the umpteenth time.  I got them at the end of May, had terrible trouble with them on LeJog, which wasn't good   Anyway I took them back yet again and saw the Director this time, upshot is they are going to remake them for me, so fingers crossed when I get them back I will actually be able to see properly through them.  I have been going to specsavers for years and to be honest this is the first time I've ever had a problem

We'll be drawing lots as to whether you're behind us in the convoy! Eat a few more carrots.

Oh don't worry I can see fine through my 'old' glasses, I'm usually behind Linda so p'raps Terry better reinforce Tinker's bumper just in case
