:D Silage, I think you'll find you'll be made welcome any time but I would personally make it on the Saturday the majority of people will be about for most of the time, on Sunday morning a lot of folks will be busy packing up and setting off home especially if the weather/wind is unpleasant 8) Havin...

Whatever, I'll see you Friday Folks

Cheers for that Jilly

Nice one Jill, I've started loading our van already, you'd be amazed how long it takes to fill that cocktail cabinet See you all soon Peeps!

:D Great Pictures Jill, loving the Alpacas with the canal behind. Couple of questions for you 1. How does the Three Magpies compare to the Golden Swan? food/drink/toilets/showers etc(thinking about going on Star Wars weekend) 2. I also saw a sign post for The Brewery Inn cider bar in one of your pic...

8) Actually for the Saturday, for a change of direction I was looking at perhaps walking to The Seven Stars Inn at Bottlesford (looks great), it would appear there is a cut through by Wilcot church and then along very quiet back roads past the Garden Centre at Woodborough and on to the pub. But Hey!...

That would be lovely, perhaps I could suggest this Jilly

Just read your post Jilly and was a little confused,
the school holidays in Hampshire don't start until the 3rd April as far as I'm aware.

Was nice to meet you Marion and I'm glad you enjoyed your trip into Salisbury, I'm afraid I couldn't join you as the sun was shinning and there was just to much cider in the beer garden See you in a field somewhere soon

Anyone recognize these Saturday night tootsies?

Glad I took my shades, what a great weekend and what a laugh (Boris is a Mormon! & whip round for a bus driver )
