In a flap

The loop is not exactly technically minded and so feels particularly thwarted and powerless when things go wrong. Some of you will have received the latest loop and many of you won't, because we have reached the 'sending total' for the day and google won't let us be more lavish. So apologies, it will be sent out in infuriatingly small groups. We nipped to the auction view yesterday for 'festival flog it!' and were enthralled by boxes of hats, crocodile handbags, 1920's shoes and lots of old samplers. If thats your thing you need to get down to the auction today .Look at the Three Shires textile festival link.

Might check out the action in South Park later and if the rain keeps off and that tentative sunshine holds out we'll get on our bikes and head down to the Middlewood way Open day.

we got drenched at the big lunch in south park. I guess around 30 people (with about as many golf umbrellas) were there listening to the orchestra and there was a good atmosphere despite the, at times torrential, rain. We were the only ones without a decent brolly and I didn't get many pics, but if I do this right there should be one here.

ooh, and thanks for the new Loop; it's wonderful!! (sorry; not to rub salt into the wounds of those who haven't been lucky enough to receive it yet ;-)). I've updated my calendar with all sorts of upcoming events that I'd never have known about if I hadn't read the Loop...
