We couldn't have asked for more perfect weather, 20 odd degrees (it's April!) and not a cloud in the sky.
The kiddies got the chance to make a wheel, try some wood-turning, beading, glass painting and printing as well as going on a steam train and open-top double-decker bus. Picnic and ice cream, a lot of walking, button pressing and water pumping... fantastic!
***WARNING...lots of photos***
See if you can spot a theme in my subconscious picture-taking!
If you ever get a chance to visit, it is a great day out for families and old codgers alike; lots of old engines, telephones, buses, steam-rollers, narrow-gauge railway, televisions, old-fashioned appliances, woodland skills and pottery!
And finally...
What a great day out - are you planning a mosaic??
ReplyDeleteI'd be bumping the kids out the way to get a shot at wood turning. Always wanted to have a go at that. Sounds like a brilliant day out.
ReplyDeletePossibly a bit of a quilt block theme?? Looks like a great day out. Postcardcwent in the post today :-)
ReplyDeletelooks like a great day out, and all those lovely shapes fitted together...reminds me of quilts a little bit....xx
ReplyDeleteGreat to know you had a wonderful day :
ReplyDeleteIt looks exactly like my type of museum, it's a pity it is so far away.
I can see interesting textures and lots of inspirations for quilts in your photos ;)
