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.

Exceptionally good news Mollygo.
May? I come too please?

(Last seen live in concert 2018. Fantastic?)

Freddy please. He loved a good Jamboree. Plus the rest of Queen of course ?

Gorgeous Brian on his own will be fine by me, thanks!

Harpic to keep the loos smelling sweet! Nothing worse than smelly communal loos.

Irons-to keep all those tablecloths looking neat!

Lurve songs! All the chilled wine is making me a sentimental old fool ?

biglouis Sun 25-Jul-21 14:04:14

Marmalade, jam, chutney and other home made goodies and stalls to buy them on. Always a great attraction at country events.

lemongrove Sun 25-Jul-21 16:40:49

Nuts....plenty to be found hereabouts if you look?

Mollygo Sun 25-Jul-21 19:51:48

Orchids-such beautiful flowers. My Granddad used to grow them.

biglouis Sun 25-Jul-21 20:51:12

Peppers of all colours to liven up the salad

ixion Sun 25-Jul-21 21:36:03

Quoissants - yum?

Rain is back and flash floods in some parts! However we will carry on regardless. Anyone who gets stranded just yell for the hunky firemen ...

Spelling was never your strong point ixion?
Sou’westers to keep our hair dry during rain showers.

lemongrove Mon 26-Jul-21 22:41:20

Toffee.....if we put our teef in first?

Mollygo Mon 26-Jul-21 23:08:57

Underwear! We were always told to make sure we had clean undies in case we got knocked down or flooded out!

biglouis Tue 27-Jul-21 00:06:20

Vintage stuff for the bring and buy stall! Nothing like a bit of old tat to attract people and its all re-cycling so we are helping the environment.

Wondered who'd be the first to comment lemon?

ixion Tue 27-Jul-21 13:37:33

Xtraordinary library for the Quiet Corner.
(Please provide dictionaries?)

All the fun of the fair ???
Anything goes!

Bouncy castles for kids of all ages - properly pegged down of course. We don't want any accidents.
