A & P show

Always a popular day in our household is the local A and P show... this year just as much excitement as always...
the day was sunny and hot, and their was much to do and look at... this year we managed to we were busy there for 5 hours !!

The animal nursery was still one of the highlights for us.....
































With her old friend 'blanky'







We loved watching our friend Bella on her beautiful horse .....









 A plane ride....


















And a fantastic bungy trampoline......









Becca LOVING the flips she could do







 Anton having a go and LOVING it. "I think I want to stay here all day"

We learnt about spinning whels and just how to turn that sheep fluff into wool with this lovely lady who was really tolerant answering all our many questions we were asking her....









 Loving (as always) the vintage machinery display especially the old manual water pumps.....














Finding some relief from the heat and the sun in the sheep sheds....













A very long ,but most exciting day!!

  1. Country shows are so much fun! Love the pics of your kids on the bungee trampolene - looks like they are flying up in a bluer than blue sky. Fantastic!

    1. Thanks for kind comments. We chatted with the spinning wheel lady for quite some time, and I was quite inspired. Am now looking into a wool carder.. maybe a spinning wheel next.
