Family Summer Fun - Bucket Lists Ready

A combination of important worldwide and regional events has characterized this summer.


As we come into Summer we all ask the question "what has happened to the British weather" with so many outdoor events affected by down pours and thunderstorms and not knowing what to wear , taking sunglasses and a brolly just to be on the safe side!


We had some major sporting events such as Wimbledon, UEFA European Football Championships and now in full swing with the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics that draws global attention, showcasing athletic prowess and international unity.


Pop Up Summer Market


This took place at Denbies Wine Estate on Sunday 2nd July.


During our events in April & May, a regular customer commented that we always had good weather and our reply was do not tempt fate. Fast forward to July, the start of the day looked great and then it changed , with torrential down pours and thunderstorms which obviously had an impact on footfall. However, that did not stop the smiles from those outside who were undercover and a big thank you to those who took time out to support the 32 small businesses who were there.

Bucket Lists


Do you have a bucket list of things that you want to do and are starting to do them?

We have both wanted for some time now to try our hand at pottery (especially fans of The Great British Pottery Throw Down having watched all 7 series). We finally decided "let's have a go" and so we booked a Pottery Wheel Experience workshop to learn the basics of getting to grips with the wheel and have the chance to feel the earth beneath our fingers.

The classes are for 4 people but it was just the two of us and Paul our teacher was fantastic and his passion for what he does and really shines through. We can't wait to see our finished work that is then fired and glazed and later ready for us to collect.


If you have ever wanted to have a go on the potters wheel , to shape the earth as it spins, using your hands and the power to create anything you can imagine then we would highly recommend this you can book here .


Go on fill that bucket list and if its not right then throw the clay in it.
