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.

Roundabouts and swings for the younger members of the party.

Quiches - with jacket potatoes if it's cold and wet, lovely salads for a heatwave.

Peanut butter - great on sandwiches, in smoothies and cookies. You can even use it in ice cream!

Ogden Nash, book of amusing poems, I shall recite one now for you if you like?

Manolo Blahniks - because, if Brigitte Macron and Melania Trump can learn to walk on muddy, tufty grass in silly shoes, then so can I!

Scribbles Wed 14-Jul-21 23:33:16

Land Rover to get all my kit from home to the venue.

Fairy lights to string around my tent

Mollygo Wed 14-Jul-21 20:36:11

Earrings-a variety for earring lovers everywhere to look at, covet or buy. Earrings don’t care if you’ve put on weight.

lemongrove Wed 14-Jul-21 20:32:47

Damson jam ( same reason as Scribbles)?

Scribbles Wed 14-Jul-21 20:08:34

Caerphilly cheese (for no reason except I like it)

lemongrove Wed 14-Jul-21 19:51:40

Butter dishes ( have to have real butter for our scones)

lemongrove Wed 14-Jul-21 19:50:03

( we keep a few muzzles in the cellar at The Argy....for bad tempered llamas and customers.) wink

Ad libs.....we need some amusing light conversations.

Scribbles Wed 14-Jul-21 19:44:23

Oh fer heaven's sake! That was mozzies not muzzles.

Scribbles Wed 14-Jul-21 19:42:56

Zapper for all the midges, muzzles and other biting things
