I've got one of those..............

..... is what I seemed to spend most of today doing! We went to spend the day in Maiden Newton, where they are holding a two day wartime re-enactment. The village was important regaarding tank warfare, and was on the southern stop line (or words to that effect), so it has an important historical link with the war. Lots of vehicles, dressing up by re-enactors and visitors, period music, home front stuff, children dressed as evacuees.....
Bean was filming the event for them to be made into a DVD later, so we tagged along; an enjoyable day on the whole, although I did have problems with the weaponry and the macho posing with "guns" and weapons, that sort of thing.......
However, the home front parts were most interesting to me, and I realise I have a rather good collection of bits and pieces now, a lot of which actually get used, much to peoples' surprise today lol
I bought a few plants from the allotment society as a reminder of the day; they had worked with the school children to make a Dig for Vicotry garden, including a couple of chickens and plantings in old tin baths.
There was a lot I could have bought, but managed to resist! Good beer too, from the lovely Piddle brewery - a pint of Silent Slasher and a pint of Piddle lol
