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.

Energy drinks - for in between the alcoholic ones, to keep us
all dancing all night.

Great balls of fire Laura . That’s should keep us warm
Please could I have a bonkette ixion ?

LauraNorder Sat 26-Jun-21 20:59:16

How about hobby horses. Bobbing up and down as we go round and round. I’m so dizzy my head is spinning, like a whirlpool it’s never ending…
Do you fancy being dizzy Doodle?

Ixion giving us a performance of something classical and highbrow

Lord Lemongrove.
Noble gentry to open our Jamboree

lemongrove Sat 26-Jun-21 21:27:40

The only thing he will be opening is another whisky bottle, ditto the noble gentry!

Muffins, to go with the Horlicks cupcake

Mollygo Sat 26-Jun-21 21:37:16

Nasturtiums -lovely to look at and a delicate addition to the gateaux.

ixion Sat 26-Jun-21 21:56:27

Orlin?
Will he stay sober and do the honours, Laura?

muse Sun 27-Jun-21 00:44:19

Posh portaloos (soft toilet paper)

MawBe Sun 27-Jun-21 06:16:49

Queues for the portaloos?

LauraNorder Sun 27-Jun-21 08:51:27

Risky business smuggling in a husband, we’ve had strict instructions no others half to be included.

LauraNorder Sun 27-Jun-21 08:53:16

Sober! You must be joking Ixion, Orlin can’t handle a sniff of the barmaid’s apron.

MawBe Sun 27-Jun-21 08:57:06

Tea- brew a cuppa is always welcome especially if it is as cold as it has been recently
“The cup that cheers but does not inebriate” (plenty of the latter already!)
