Bet you wish you could watch highlights of "The Bard" tomorrow morning

Yes wonderful weather until Sunday afternoon, it really made the show ..let's hope when they see the good turn out; it will encourage more stallholders for bits and pieces, gadgets and "ooo I could do with one of those"

Walked into the town centre from the site ..a 25min walk, very enjoyable, through green leafy lanes.

Here's a short selection selection, including me 1st past the post ..WINNER !!

You did well

Mijhan, Dave & Sue loved it, I hated it, it was weird.

A modern version of As You Like It, hardly any costumes most wearing jeans. 1st half was them rehearsing it.
Second half was the play I didn't have a clue what was going on and couldn't get any kip.

Also it's normally performed by young people but most of rhe cast were the actors that performed it in 1978.

Like I said weird and seats are the most uncomfortable I've ever come across in a theater.

Nice photos but a weird way of posting them and not user friendly for viewing.

 

[TinaLes]

He guys just wondering, does the Massive bar/Chinese Buffet restaurant still exist on the river near the bridge in Stratford? I was on a Biz course in the 90's and the last night we all piled into my 1st ever Chinese Buffet (eat as much as you like) restaurant.
The concept caught on across many towns in the UK, Camberley Surrey being one, but they seem to be disappearing fast these days.
Great while it lasted I guess.

[Lenny HB]

Not sure even the Charity shops would accept that shirt.

Didn’t need much encouragement. Actually, you were up with the bookies before Serina most races!!!

All your picks were donkeys… well they looked like donkeys, performed like donkeys, must be donkeys

Shows how little we know about horses and racing really.

 

[Chocy boy]

Thanks to Dave &Polly for booking us all in. A bigger thank you to Lee for parking us up and stoping the general campers from invading are pitch.
Will see some of you at Coleford to carry on the party. The rest I will see you in another meet soon.
John.

 

[Lee Fryer]
