A wonderful couple of days for The Story Traveller!  Today was the Wick Court Open Farm Day. I of course was story telling and generally helping out. We had an amazing 712 visitors – last year it just over 400! As always when you are story telling at these sorts of events is you have no idea what your audience is going to be like in terms of age range. I think I managed to compromise with the stories I told especially my second session.

Yesterday was the most delightful of days as a grandparent!. We met our two grandsons Owen and Robin (plus their Dad) at WWT Slimbridge. Well Robin who is 16 months was so animated at seeing all the birds (even the swans were “Quack, quacks” He was loving every minute of it. Owen went on the canoe safari with Pete his dad and I which was great. However, we had a lovely time later with Owen in Welly Boot Land. The best word to describe it was joyful as he whizzed round splashing in the water chatting away to himself. Even as i write this I am smiling at the magical day!
