After brekky I headed south down the M5 to Taunton and Vivary Park for the first event of two.
Lovely park, but my GPS took me to the wrong side of the houses running alongside it. So after driving around in a few circles I actually managed to find the correct car park and as it is Sunday it was free parking!! (Unlike the one near the hotel which is costing me a small fortune, LOL). Then a cut lunch and water-bag walk to the toilets at the opposite end to where we were meeting, of course! The middle of the park was fenced off as they were having a music in the park type thing over 3 nights. They kept doing sound checks and had the bass going at one stage, horrible!!!! Tom Jones is tonight’s music!
Had fun watching Alex feeding the rather tame squirrels. Anyway, did all we had to do there and then headed to the final venue, The Master Thatcher, a pub Sally had booked the function room for us all to sit and chat and relax a bit before getting the outside munzees. They had a great looking carvery so had that for lunch, the parsnips were very nice.
Sally has had a theme running through the events, the first icon was an apple cut in half, the 2nd a cider press, the 3rd a barrel and the 4th a glass of cider. So several indulged in the real thing. After saying goodbye to those still around, I headed to Bridgwater for some historical icon munzees, managed to get myself lost in some very small lanes, but finally sorted out the GPS and got back to the hotel. I did fill up with fuel and grabbed a sandwich for dinner, as not really hungry after that lunch, lol.
