Hello again!

Always busy the week before a fair, and I’m very proud of our Bibury Fair, and so pleased to say again we are full despite some people off on holiday, so I think it’s fair to say we are in “Tip Top” condition!

Some people call, this Plum Pudding Mahogany, but this year I think in August that’s just not right, maybe in November or December, certainly not in this heat! Way too warm for Brandy Butter!

Here is a clue…..

Is this the best view? I don’t know!
Upright and better colour!
Trying to catch the colour!
Still trying to catch the colour!
Tilt Top in the sun!

June is about to be! Time for tea?

I’m pleased to say our next Bibury Fair is this coming Sunday, 3rd June!

Why not splash about and pop by the River Coln, find us near the church, opposite end from The Trout Farm and Swan Hotel, but near Arlington Row. Inside the Village Hall will be a selection of antiques, and vintage items, including jewellery, silver, brass ware, glass, ceramics, and even a little furniture, and maybe a  few rugs too!

Refreshments will be served from just before noon, including some sandwiches and home made cakes, tea and coffee goes nicely with them in the sun outside, or on William Morris table cloths inside, depending on the weather!

Look out, we open form 10 am, close at 4pm too, as we may be seen sitting by the river looking for kingfisher or seeing how much the cygnets have grown since last month!

See you there?

Regards, Andy!

Hello! Here is a photograph of the river and The Swan Hotel in Bibury, and behind me the river runs next to the road and goes past The Village Hall, where Bibury Antiques Fair will be on show on Sunday April 1st! Please call in and peruse the lovely show we will have. Maybe a late Easter present for a friend could be found? There will be several Classic Cars on their way for coffee just down the road too, follow one and see where it goes! Happy motoring!

Regards, Andy.
