It's Been a Funny Old Week...

The Twilight Zone I went out shopping for a genuwine authentic totem pole, as you do, found one, well almost, ended up talking to the man who calls himself a wood butcher on a traffic island at Wolsley.

Had a surreal experience on the road to Catton, a route we have never been on and had my brother grinning and waving in the car next to me as they slowed down to pass us (my sister in law was driving) on their way to somewhere. The chances of seeing him on that road at that moment in time must be a million to one.
Got lost in a one acre field (being used as a car park) - now we are known for getting lost anywhere but even by our standards this beats our record !! However, read on...

Night of a Billion Stars. The Firework Festival at Catton Hall was nothing short of spectacular and totally mesmerising, the way the music and fireworks were orchestrated. It was totally magic and a real treat. Can't wait for next years.




The Journey Home well ,was quite honestly, scary. We left the field, we missed the sign 'home' (as usual). Went down some dark, dark lanes and through some dark, dark woods. We journeyed on and on into the wilderness and then, an orange glow appeared in the sky - was it a close encounter? A town? not really, it was Burton, real alien territory. At least it got us to the A38!! I always thought I wanted to visit Burton
