July 2022

The confetti fields near Pershore were open on 1st July. It is always busy so we booked to go on the first morning. It didn’t disappoint!

Different flowers too

The Archeology Festival is amazing. The city streets had 3-D carpets

Tony was a steward for the tram and here is a photo of it

A little further down Eastgate Street I was helping build the wall to defend the city from the Royalist troops in 1643.

And those are real canon balls from the seige.

Who could resist? I just had to be photographed on every single one but here are just a couple.

The Folk of had a lego display. Here is the Roman Forum

The detail was incredible. I’m not sure the fisherman was catching salmon.

Then the funniest Event of the summer! The dog show at Llanthony Priory organised by friend Kim.

Knowing we are not in the dog fan club we were given the task of checking dogs into each category and taking the money, however it didn’t quite work out as planned and….I just has to teach it to sit!

The gardens lovingly tended by friend Karen

Friend Sophie with her dog Dolly

I’m not sure whether these treats were for humans or dogs!

And Captain Colin from Sula did a splendid job with the commentary

Our neighbour Lyndsey with her dog, with award

It’s not every day your MP drops in for coffee

We had a cruise down to Sharpness and visited the SARA open day, on a very warm day.

Very interesting tour of the key base between the River Severn and the Gloucester Sharpness Canal.

Rather nice model boats

We had been meaning to visit the Nature in Art museum for some time..

We had lunch an spent a very nice afternoon both viewing the exhibits in the house and the statues in the gardens.

The most perfect delicious chocolates. Thanks to friends Karen & Roger.

A different view of Victoria Basin. Matilda is at the far end

And the TV star! Notice how he managed to get Matilda in the photo!
