We had a wonderful evening with charlotte and her extended family..the kids made a fire and we cooked hotdogs and my children were shown how to make toasted marshmellows..gorgous..though our inexperience resulted in a few.”.marshmellows are on fire mum”!!!..and floras sausage was doing great till it fell to the ground!!! a great fun evening very chilled people do this lots round here apparantly!!we do look a bit like gypsies in the photos..but hey weve just had an email from my dad saying “calling all gypsies”!!!

I think you`ll find travellers is more PC!! The children had thier first recorder lesson from mum..a travelling trio..I hope to put them to work busking if times get hard!!!the kids were quick to learn and enjoyed making music(??) shame everyone within a 5 mile radius didnt fully appreciate the joys of creative play ( what possessed me to bring recorders…we might swap to harmonica lessons on route!)
