Olympic Torch

Today the Olympic Torch came to the town were I live and as it was visiting it would have been rude not to wave a flag at it. haha.  First Wenlock drove past and a then a woman called Joanna carried the torch on this leg of the journey.  More people than I had expected turned out to cheer and wave and our enthusiasm was not dampened by the down pour that occurred just after these photos were taken.

 

 

Roll on 27th July!

I am really looking forward to the London Olympic games.

Introducing a friend for the summer

Please meet my flat friend for the summer, Fanny, or to give her her correct title Flat Fanny.  Now don't snigger I didn't name her.  She is Flat Stanley's (he of the book fame) relative from the USA. Actually a paper doll drawn by the wonderful Lindsay Ostrum.  Please check out what Fanny has been getting up to all over the world on Lindsay's blog.  

Today Fanny helped me pick more strawberries from my garden as Fanny is showing you there are plenty more yet to ripen if the sun decides to return.
