Good Old Fashioned Fun

We spent the day with  my father and his girlfriend today. In Olney, Bedfordshire. Today was Olney's Dicken's Christmas Fair. We had some good old fashioned fun.

Very pretty town - our first visit.
Which was much busier than the first photo gives the impression.

Timeless fun.
Sheer determination.
Craft stalls.
Santa's elves, and a teddy of choice to take home.

Love these swings!

And that was our day. Sewing shall recommence tomorrow.
