The Malvern Autumn Show





Well, shows are always a good excuse to meet up with new faces, stuff your face with home made goodies and bag a bargain. Today we met up with our good friends Paul and Shelley, met Hazel and Jane for the first time and also arranged for Hazels mum to move in with us in an attempt to reduce the ironing mountain, and a a great rate as well, thanks Hazel.
The grand cake with the "dreaded fifty" is in celebration of Claires (Scarey 55 from the grapevine) birthday. Claire, yes it did taste as good as it looks, another bonus of having Hazels mum round.
Kazzi, ever being aware of a photo opportunity, managed to bag a photo of herself with Medwyn Williams, the King of Veg. As a bonus we bought some of his new carrot seed for showing in "other than long" carrot classes, the ones on display were huge, very evenly sized and hopefully will bag us a rosette come next years shows. Never having shown before this may be more of a challenge than it seems.
All in all, we had a great time with old friends and new, were well fed and shopped out. Its a show well worth going to.
