cakes...crafts and scarecrows...

and still more cakes...well done the cake bakers and craft makers and all the other events at the Dean Arts and Scarecrow Festival...so great to see lots of families and young and old out and about on bikes and on foot and in cars taking part and supporting a local community event!





oh and my stall at the craft fair..looked very happy!



some of my favourite scarecrows...and there were soo many more amazing clever and funny exhibits...it's amazing what people hatch over the long winter months in the pub...and then put such a lot of effort into their creations...





I think this one should win the star prize...I mean...a horse that looked so like a horse you really thought it was coming over the wall into the road!



slight bias with this one...as our Guides made them!! fantastic!


 and our Leader..Lyn..very lifelike! bit worried she's on the drink again...told her to stick to orange juice...



perhaps HM should have the last word...as it's her Jubilee maybe she should win?!

Hiya,

loving all the pics of the scarecrows. I also took a few. I'm planning an Ullock fair blog update too so I'll have to upload mine soon :)

Look forward to seeing you again soon for a catch up and some craftiness.
