Monday's Word - Country Fair


Today, as a change from the usual 'weird' word for Monday, I'm cheating a bit because I thought it would be nice to share some pictures with you, of a country fair we attended at a National Trust Property in the Chilterns, not far from where I live.  It was a lovely day out, many stalls with local produce, pony rides, logging demonstrations and refreshments from stalls and barbeques.
This lovely Clydesdale mare attracted a lot of attention


Taking a well earned break



How to make a wooden dining chair

Everything from handmade garden scarecrows
To honey and cute animal candles
A display of how prehistoric man lived 
Being an animal lover, not too sure about all the animal skins,  but it was a very interesting exhibit








Delicious homemade cakes, not forgetting...
Flowers 


...and vegetables

  4. Hi Mary, dear friend,

    Those wood carvings were beautiful, but very, very expensive.(They're started off with a chain saw, but most of the carving is done by hand and must take days.) I'd have loved a bear, or a red kite (first picture) to put in my garden. Those cakes all had rich butter cream frosting!

    (DH actually enjoys these events as much as I do, which is a good thing, or I wouldn't get to them.)
