Pauline handed me a lemon cupcake when I arrived, delicious. Shame I spilt all my coffee granuals on the floor of my van! Stupid Dowe Egbert's stopper.Need to find a word for the time interval between saying "ooh, peacocks!" and then saying "shut UP you flipping peacocks!"
Friday night was wet and blowy, I skipped the BBQ and ate in, but lots of people did persevere. A terrible night's sleep, with the attached awning bashing the sides of the van. At 3am I relented and went out to un-attach it and thwack some more pegs in round the edges. New wellies were a boon!
Slept a lot of the next day, and then went to the quiz in the evening. Hilarious, with a mix up between ladies fingers and killer whales, plus a maths question cancelled as it was so complicated Graham couldn't even read it out!
Next day, a photo before I set off:
On the way back, called in at Sherwood Forest Visitor Centre - AVOID! Horribly tacky, from the Robin Hood themed pub, to ye olde shoppe and paved paths.<---- Robin Hood looked like Errol Flynn it seems.
As I was there, I followed the orange, fenced path to the Major Oak. It was pretty fantastic, much more impressive than a photo can show. So I did get something out of the £3 parking charge!
