Bishops Castle Michaelmas Fair

We have had a lovely day today,first of all we went to Leominster Boot sale-we haven't been for weeks because of doing various craft fairs and also the weather. It was lovely to wander around and pick up some bargains-like a new cd system which sounds just brilliant and has been set up in the kitchen!I also bought some lovely jewelry for myself! As if I need any more!

I did also buy a lovely stand to hang necklaces and earrings off as well, so will be able to keep the new stuff tidy!

Then we went off to Bishops Castle Michaelmas Fair-we have never been there before and what a great event it was.

Bill was in his element-loads of steam engines, tractors and lorries on display.

All of the streets were buzzing with people and stalls.There was loads to see.

The morris dancers were very entertaining-how they kept it up with the dancing with it being so hot I don't know--but the funny thing is neither of us noticed the spotted house in the background when we watched them! Its only now when I was putting the photos on the computer that I 'spotted it!'

We went into the craft tent and got talking to one of the exhibitors who makes soaps of all description's from goats milk.We bought some coffee soap which removes smells from your hands-handy when Ive been cleaning brushes and some nettle soap which is great for dry skin.

She gave us all the imformation for next year and hopefully we will be doing the fair ourselves.

It had a lovely atmosphere and we really enjoyed ourselves there.Its not many miles from home , cant understand why we havent been to it before!
