Samhain

We like Samhain. It is, I think, my favourite festival to mark from the old calendar. Every year we invite some friends (mainly boaters) to join us for a meal.

With the help of these friends we decorate the boat:

And Rob and I carve some pumpkins. From here on the photographs are a bit shaky as the main photographer for the evening became very drunk (and passed out rather early).

DSCF4673We crammed the narrow boat full of as many people as we could and fed and watered them (though technically no water was drunk). We also set aside a place for those who could not be with us.

Hey! You're back! I knew if I kept coming by I would get a result some time.

That looks a great party and it must have gone well in the cosy ambience of the "Green Man"

Gandalf,

It was your prompting that made me return! A kidly nudge reminding me that I have a blog to upkeep and bloggy friends to annoy! Glad to see you back here :)
