Wednesday was my birthday. So much has happened that I dont know if I will have the energy to write it all down. Left in the morning for a 47m journey to south Dorset.

To sunny skies did we venture, arriving at about 11.45 to this one of the four largest shows of this type in the UK. It felt a bit like deja vu with many familiar stands so instead I decided to seek out individuals and chat with them in my normal endearing manner. We first visited the Christian Churches tent where the rapport between the vicars was obviously close. There were five of them there...
