Woolpit Steam Fair

 Last time the fair was held, in 2019, Eldest Daughter was staying and Youngest Daughter drove over and with Son and Daughter in Law we all went to the Fair together . The day was hot and we had to find a shady spot for out picnic lunch. Since then there's been Covid, two more Grandchildren and the eldest two are now at school, which makes weekends more precious for them.

So it was just me, Son and Middle Grandson who popped down the road to visit last Saturday....and the weather was weird. One minute warm in the sun and the next a cold wind whipped round. I didn't stay too long as I was still suffering from tireditus but it was fun to see Grandsons face seeing all the machinery.






Not so many things there as 3 years ago and not picnic-ing weather for sure.

Apologies to everyone whose comments weren't published through  late May. I checked the awaiting moderation bit but had forgotten to check the spam file for several days. It's all very strange but now I will try to remember to look more often.
 

Back Tomorrow

  2. Hi, you mention this spam folder. I had a look at my blogger account in case I was missing reactions too, but I don't see a spam folder. Where can I find it? Thanks!

  4. Little boys & machinery... they all love it! I remember, many moons ago, our road was being tore up in front of our house (back when we lived in-town) and my "little boy" would kneel on the couch and watch out the window for hours! That little boy is going to be 35yo next month! Good memories! ~Andrea xoxo

  6. We have a steam show every year as well. The kids are fascinated by the noise and the action.

  9. Little boys do love machinery and your grandson must have been overjoyed to be at the fair. Hopefully, June weather will improve and we'll start getting warmer days. It's 60 degrees here and cloudy...very cool. If you continue to feel tired, a check-up with the PCP is probably a good idea. Your busy life can not accept feeling tired!
