Glad you like Clarksville Tiff, I prefer the high street though, I never find anything in the outlets.
It's been horrible here today, cold and wet and wet and cold.
The fair is on tomorrow too, Tess. It's at the show ground & opens at 10 a.m.
I prefer Street shops too, well, I can't resist charity shops & there are several in Street. It's daughter who likes the village outlets.
It was very cold, I nearly froze at the fair as well as getting soaked.
Here it's about 8 degrees warmer than Zumerzet.

The Antony and Cleopatra Fair sounds interesting though. "Give me my robe, put on my crown; I have Immortal longings in me" ...
My mother warned me about people like you.

Yes, Teddies, 2 Charlie Bears & a Dean's bear, at the Fair & a present for a pal in Radley's in Clarkes Village, Daughter bought chocolates from Thorntons. We also had a wander around Street & bought books in the charity shops.



Antique & Collectables fair, d00d, you funny man.,



I have been to Glastonbury, Shepton Mallet town & various other places in Zumerzet, but we went today for the fair, would have stayed longer if not for the rain as there were quite a few outside stalls too, not as many as the September fair, but worth a look if not pouring down.
Daughter loves Clarkes Village.
Glasto Town is a bit … weird but I do like the reclamation yard nearby. The view from the rebuilt church tower on the hill is fandabibidzo but it is a pacemaker recharge walk up to the top. I also like Wells and the reclamation yard near there. It's THE place to go if you want to buy an old Russian Tank.

Re: Shepton A&C fair & Clarkes Village

Lovely part of Britain but yes it always rains buckets at this time of year.

I love Clarkes shoes for my working wardrobe. Mine have always lasted forever and are usually really comfy.

Glasto is a bit eerie but isn't that the ley line magic?
