ready for the off.....

Well I think we are.

We have the bunting:

And things like piles of paper work......


....and big bags containing display boards...



...are taking over my house! We have, I think, everything organised. Really. Which is good because I was indeed on BBC Somerset Radio this evening giving it a plug, so who knows how many people may turn up now! You can listen to the show again here.

I thought I would do some 'before and after' shots....or rather before and during. So here it is. The view from my front door as of the 17th July 07:

And looking towards Garston. Come sunday this area will be filled with people sitting and enjoying hotdogs, a flairing bar (a la Tom Cruise), lots of stalls and games, and a bouncy castle

...and the view towards Portway, where the stage area will be for the Town Crier to open the day, the fancy dress parade to end up, scavenger and paper aeroplane competitions are launched from, and the live music will be performing....

...so there you have it. The eagle eyed amongst you may well have noticed Thing. He wanted to get in the spirit of things so donned his High Vis party gear...! (and yes, thing is most definately a HE. His chain got stuck again today on my way to an appointment...he has definate 'mars-like' qualities about him!)

And last, we have a seal of approval on the day from a higher authority I think!

See you Sunday people!
