I'll return to the Herefordshire posts in a few days with a trip to Ledbury and St Michael and All Angels but first a more seasonal post.
Last year we went to the Pumpkins R Us event at Stoneleigh and really enjoyed it so D and I went again this year. It was a different venue with more to see outside which was just as well as it was half term week and heaving with people. I did plan to go last Friday but it rained heavily in the morning. If we go next year I will be sure to avoid half term week!!!!!
I didn't buy as many pumpkins as last year. Just one large one for D to carve and a Turk's Turban to make soup. I already have a small pumpkin at home to make the Wizard's Hat Pasties.
As it was so busy and we were the only ones wearing masks! we didn't go in the marquees except for the last one which you had to enter to pay. There were a lot of Halloween items on sale.
We didn't stop that long and so popped into the Farm Shop next door which was much quieter to buy a few early Christmas presents (if I dare mention the C word this early!).
The two pumpkins we bought. You do have a pay a small entry fee to attend but to be fair the pumpkin prices are very reasonable.
In our absence B had used more of the Herefordshire apples to make an apple pie.
I hope everyone is staying safe and well.
All photos taken by me with the Panasonic Lumix FZ330 bridge camera (I don't particularly rate my photos but if anyone wishes to use one or more I would be grateful for an email first - thanks).
