Round and Round in Circles.........

Jim and I visited The Barge yesterday...the heart of the Crop Circle Community .....Jim has a cheesy grin as he is as pleased as punch to see his Dad's legacy continue......you may remember the post about Dave Chorley(Jim's Dad) who, along with Doug Bower were the first to make crop circles .......here is the link to my post . Here is a video of the amazing ceiling at The Barge (I didn't take this just found it on You Tube)

Here is the work done by 120 yr 1 children yesterday and today. They made the backgrounds of the postcards yesterday and today they decorated them and a great job they did too ( 5 going on 6 yr olds )........I also had every single one of them operate the foot pedal of my electric sewing machine yesterday and they each 'sewed ' a side of their postcards ........Brilliant fun !!
