amazing weekend

Well, I can safely say that I had a bloomin' fabulous weekend. It was the amazing 2012 Peterborough Arts Festival this week, which had so much going on to coincide with the Olympic torch relay passing through the region. From Victorian Helter Skelters to beat box folk music, local foods, giant flowers and yoga workshops Peterborough has been awash with cool stuff this week so the Minis, Miles and I popped on over to Central Park to enjoy the fun on Saturday. Luckily we managed to hang out and have a fab time before the rest of the day got rained off in the torrential July craziness, but we really enjoyed ourselves.  We got up super early to watch the flame relay in St Ives today, then we warmed up with a cuppa and bacon roll at Farm Club before weeding the plot and grabbing some lettuce for lunch. We headed over to Cambridge this afternoon to catch the Big Weekend stuff there, where we got hands on at some paint and graffiti workshops. Love it - thanks, weekend, for reminding me that being outdoors rocks, that painting makes my world feel colourful and that childs play is a magic we all need to remember. Play is so important to grown ups too - let's all go play outside from time to time and leave the screen squareness ;)
