The six girls all had such a fun day out.. no, they didn't have to wear hats and heels but they did eat yummy yumyum and slurp fizzy drinks! And they were SO fussed over and the paparazzi were crazy about them.. lots of photos were taken.
Yes, it was the Annual Staff Fair at Rockspace at Hayes! The staff were so pleased to see the girls.. four goaty kids ~ two British Sanaan and two Nubian cross Sanaan ~ and Debbie and my mum. Debbie answered the Goaty questions and my mum helped by 'girling' the cheeses counter, well, she isn't a man, so how would she 'man' it?
In a little lull they scoffed their picnic, mum had taken a pot of her garlicky mayo.. it is a veryvery scrummydumptious thing into which you dip a radish into and then into a tub of Maldon salt and likewise with a baby pea or a spring onion ~ scallion.
Lots of the customer remembered them from last year and came whizzing over to buy their favourites again. One big guy grinned when he saw the round one, whose name escapes me but it is famous for it won the GOLD award at the Nantwich International Cheese Fair last year, and said "this is my very favourite cheese in all the world", HOW nice was that!
The baby goaty folk thought the whole thing was very pleasant, for nice people held bottles for them and it was warm so they could zizz in the trailer, it was, all in all, a pleasant jaunt and as the three youngest kids had also been to Balham last Saturday and are going up to be part of a new goaty herd in Herefordshire next Tuesday, you can just imagine the tales of adventure that they will be able to tell!
She left poor Debbie to do the packing up, it is a very detailed job as everything goes in its' special place, and walked up to the station, two stops later she was at Paddington and lifting old WW onto a number 36 bus to Park Lane. A swift 74 brought her home, whereupon, I had to give her a good checking over to make sure those naughty kids had not stolen anything.
Like her heart, we all know she has a secret small place in her heart for a pure white kidney-diddley because of Victoria but she knows that she'll never have her own again, so she just loves from afar.
Funny weather, it was pretty humid, to say the least but hopefully it will be a pleasant day tomorrow when she goes to the allotment, for on Friday we are Singing With Dementia.. yum, I hope they have that boiled fruity cake again, I am extremely partial to that.
Goodness me, it is past five of the afternoon clock and we have not had a cup of LapySang. I must fly away to the YumYum HQ and supervise Mr. Kettle. FlapFlap Dear Readers FlapFlap.. I hope you're having an equally nice life?
GeeGee Parrot.
