Back in the van for the last time this year before I put it away for the winter. I am at Tewkesbury Abbey. I have stayed here before and I like it because you can walk into the town and along by the river so don't need to keep using the car.
On the way in I noticed some signs on the lamp posts to say that it is the Mop Fair today and tomorrow. I didn't even know that Tewkesbury had a Mop Fair. (I know Warwick and Stratford do). Anyway the main road to the site was closed and I had to find my way round the diversion to get here. Always a bit nerve racking following diversions with the van as they are not usually very well signposted and three point turns are tricky if you go the wrong way!. Anyway got here OK and weather very mild. Site is busy. I think everyone is having a last fling.
From my pitch I can see the tower of the abbey in one direction and one of the rides from fair in the other!

I have done a bit more to the little Jenny Wren. Needs a beak but I will have to do that at home as need glue to stiffen it. Also have to put some tiny white dots on the wings and not sure how to do it.
