The River Cottage Autumn Fair in Photos
Strolling the busy streets of Musbury. Ben looking tipsy and Xander looking authoritative. Neither was either.
Did I mention the band that opened for Ben was called “Itchy and Scratchy”?
Ben Walker vs. the River Cottage Chickens
A real, live, authentic River Cottage Chicken.
Geeks.
The man himself, Mr. Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall.
Down time with Xander and Ben.
He was a big hit with the kids.
Oh you know. Just hanging out.
This handsome fennel-seed salami caused Ben a great deal of distress, and Xander and me a great deal of amusement.
Heading back to the cabin.
We’ve seen some fairly spectacular sunsets.
Nice pics, they underline the story well.
“Fairly spectacular”! Ah, we talk that way, too, Miranda.
“Faintly disgusting”
“Vaguely intense”
and of course the classic:
“Curiously strong” (that one ISN’T ours, of course,
but we love it.)
Yr furrin corresp. who is slightly less envious
of you now that I’ve RIDDEN MY BIKE FOR TWO MONTHS.
But I’m falling back into the envy slough…
