Lovely Langham Street Fayre

Just a little post from me today to mention a gorgeous event, so special that only happens every other year. If you happen to be in North Norfolk this Saturday then you really must visit the lovely Langham Street Fayre there's lots going on.

A wonderful mix of stalls selling crafts, homemade & home grown food, bric a brac, books and anything else you could wish for. I think there will be vintage cars again this year (yes I will be taking photos but no silly posing by them this time thankfully ha ha). There are competitions, games, proper old fashioned village fete fun that are probably aimed at the kids - but too much fun for big kids to miss out on.

Anyway it's a lovely outing for the family, or just you & your friends. Oh don't bother with the picnic as there will be bacon butties, homemade cakes, afternoon teas and too many other goodies to avoid!

Did I mention the weather forecast?? Make sure you bring sunnies, a hat & suncream woo hoooo. Homemade icecream anyone?? xx

A Weekend A-fayre!!

Well it's good old British Summertime which means Fayres & Fêtes in towns & villages all over the place.

This weekend the Butterfly duo have two on.

Saturday is Somerleyton, which is a really cute chocolate box setting complete with duckpond, good pub and gorgeous cottages. No surprise that they film lots of period dramas & series in this area.

The event is for the Primary School on Saturday 10th July from 1pm to 5pm on the Green in Somerleyton Village. You won't miss the bunting fluttering in the Summer breeze.

Expect to find nice things to buy, cakes to eat, teas and lovely smiley people & plenty of good old fashioned family fun!

Norwich Lanes Summer Fayre

11^th July 2010 11am – 5pm

The Lanes Summer Fayre was originally set up as simply the St. Benedicts Street Fayre but has grown to include the “ Norwich Lanes” community. This is a really nice area of Norwich for unusual little boutiques. Lots of fabulous shops to be found, cool bars, nice restaurants and the Maddermarket Theatre.

This year the Lanes Summer Fayre is being included as part of the Lord Mayor’s celebrations too.

What you will find is a selection of scrummy stalls & selling a variety of hand-made goods, vintage clothes, antiques and crafts and food vendors. There will be entertainment moving along St. Benedicts Street throughout the day and various acoustic music and poetry will be taking place on St. Gregorys Green. Other activities will be happening in the variety of venues and churches along the street and up to St. Gregory’s Church and the Birdcage. Yep Butterflies & Hurricanes (me and Mummy Butterfly)are there selling accessories and my mates the Headless Teddy boys will be there selling really good coffee. I know some of the other stall holders too & it promises nice things (and treats for me oops).

It’s going to be a lovely event & all the shops in the Lanes should be open too, so shop till you drop xx
