Tam, Rosie and I have had a lovely day out at Wonderwool, which is held every April on Builth showground. It was £14 to get in (I winced) and I had told myself NO wool (and I was good). I need to finish the things I started knitting last year and the year before and then perhaps I will allow more wool into the house. All I bought were a steak pasty for lunch, and two dye plants - Woad and Dyer's Chamomile. I will do a 2nd post tomorrow, but wanted to concentrate on this truly amazing Wartime exhibition, to celebrate the 80th Anniversary of VE day (which is 8th May). It was knitted by knitters in France and beyond.
Needless to say it was all too exciting for little ones to sleep! Especially once she had seen the SHEEP and then had a bit of a hissy fit when we took her away from them. Outside, she also decided that she absolutely HAD to hold onto the side of her pram and help push it. When deterred, another mini melt down happened. Gosh, she knows what she wants, that child, so had to be distracted . . . She's still awake now, probably not helped by having some of Tam's Blackberry Crumble ice cream (I had Raspberry Pavlova).
I don't feel I will need much in the way of an evening meal tonight, after the pastie and ice cream, but there is mince with tomatoes and spicy Taco Beans in the fridge.
Gabby's here tomorrow and we will have our Easter roast a week late. Have a lovely weekend.
