craftyhunnypie Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Grrrr - We were supposed to be going to Wrenbury today for a walk round, bite to eat at the pub & to view the scarecrows on the scarecrow trail, but it's piddling down. What a pain in the bum! It's not even 10am yet & I'm bored. Think it will be a nip out to WHsmiths & buy my Home Farmer magazine instead. Nice, but I really wanted to do something today. Oh drat!

craftyhunnypie Posted July 5, 2008 Author Share Posted July 5, 2008 Well we are back after calling in at Nantwich aftewrwards. We were a bit disappointed this year - there didn't seem as many scarecrows as normal. We voted for the made from rubbish lady. A woman made totally from recycled plastic bottles, cans, carrier bags etc. Very clever. Also good were Mary Mary quite contrary, Deal or No Deal with Noel Edmonds & the old woman who lived in the shoe had so many children she didn't know what to do. The old woman was a papier mache rabbit & the children were real rabbits in someones front garden. Lovely to see & if you wanted to hold a baby bunny - you could ring the bell & the man / lady would come out & let you. There was also a duck race taking place at 4pm, with cash prizes. We had a snack & cake in the village hall. Tomorrow there is a Summer Fayre on at the school too. It's a lovely village to walk round! Photos to follow when hubby puts them on his computer.
