Selling fruit at Deershed

First visit to Deershed, which is just up the road near Thirsk. A very family friendly festival, loads of activities along with the music, including mass hula hoops, a science tent and early morning jogging groups.



Saw Meilyr Jones who was interesting, and Richard Hawley was excellent, but in general the music wasn't quite my scene, although I didn't see very much of it as I was working on the Fruit Basket stall selling fruit and veg to the masses with Hugh, Sharon, Susan and Chris and another Chris.



The stall next door were nice and friendly, but worked incredibly hard. We started at 7.30am and they were already serving.

Bought 2 great shirts for £10.

Whitby in July

Met up with Angela to check out a potential rally site on the North York Moors. A fantastic location, just a short walk to the NYR station of Goathland, and the trains ran right through the farm. However, the access road and facilities were 'rustic' to put it politely so no good for the club. I had swallows nesting over my van though, lovely to watch.


We had a great time anyway, got the train in to Whitby on a baking hot Saturday, had a good lunch, took a bus trip round the town and did a bit of shopping. (I bought some jet earrings).
