Sorry for the delay on this post; I was halfway hoping that it would write itself.
On Saturday, Sunday and Monday (two months ago), the archers came to town! On Saturday and Sunday, we had a competition. I say "a" competition because some people shot one day, the rest shot the other, but there was only one prizegiving for both days.
On Saturday, it was wet and misty, on Sunday, windy and rainy; I with my usual knack for choosing the worse of the two options had decided to shoot on Sunday. The targets were great, though, and we got to shoot in the school courtyard. Carrying a weapon into school is not as interesting as you'd think it would be. However, it is pretty cool to say that you come here all the time.
I'll post all of Mummy's photos. (Thank you for taking them!)
Monday, a couple of the archers volunteered to do shooting lessons for the general public, and there was a bit of a market all three days.
It was a lovely long (two day!) weekend.
Ciao,
Florence

| There are two sets of "rings" which you have to pass through, one set is moving |

| yes, we had to shoot while sitting on the swings |
