Now that the rain has cleared away, I have secured a huge field for our jamboree ( courtesy of Farmer Giles as usual.) Bring camping gear, food, drink, and useful or decorative items.
No wives/ husbands/ partners/ toy boys allowed but you can bring a well behaved dog or cat ?
As always, in alphabetical order, and bring lots of things to do as we could be here for a long time.This is also a chatty time really, so say anything you like ( within reason?)

I will start things off with...
Apple pie ( from M&S) as I have a bit of a thing about it at the moment, which is why I shall be mainly wearing elasticated skirts and chinos for this shindig.

Orthopaedic chairs for the creaky guests (please!)

Needles for those who are not having as much fun as us and just want to knit.

Milk of Magnesia-Mum always uses that for stomach ache caused by over eating.

Lawyer (good) to get us off the charges the Keystone Cops might come up with if we fail to keep up our usual impeccable standards of behaviour?.

LauraNorder Thu 01-Jul-21 17:00:42

Keystone cops to keep the sort of order we’re used to

Germanshepherdsmum Thu 01-Jul-21 12:26:47

Comfy shoes for all the dancing and comfy elasticated waists for all the eating (sorry I think someone has already mentioned the latter?).

Armchairs. The comfy sort for when I need a nap during the festivities.

LauraNorder Thu 01-Jul-21 11:16:36

Astrakhan coats so that we are warm but look like hippies from bygone days. Second hand and unwashed of course

Zips for lips, for any inadvertent grumpy remarks.
