You guys in UK really know how to put on a fair. At our last state fair, none of the artisans were on hand to show how they worked, and all the pieces had already been judged before the fair began :( .

I sent my parents a link to your blog so they could enjoy it too. They love the Peak District but can't now walk in the dales and moors as much as they used to. And I live in Sussex now so I don't get there very often either. <BR/><BR/>A few weeks ago I walked with them through Bradford Dale and Youlgrave. We began the walk at Middleton and on the descent from there into Bradford Dale stood an intriguing piece of sculpture with a poem inscribed on it about sheep dipping. It looks like a rackety pile of books. Do you happen to know anything about it? There's a photo of it in my <A HREF="http://sarahsbookarama.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow"><BR/>latest blog post</A>. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again from SarahSarah Cuthbertsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17841282823433026980noreply@blogger.com
