The Thames Festival



Today was the first day of the Thames Festival which is one of the best free events of the year. What should I use as the picture? A flowery sculpture? A penguin? A barbecue? No, I thought, the German Beer Tent. Not sure why....

Public service announcement: Anyone living near East London can come along today, Sunday 17th September at 14:00 hrs at Wanstead station for a FREE Blue Badge guided walk in celebration of National Walking Day. Should be fun!

Your motivation was nothing to do with the low-cut tops on their costumes? :)

Thanks for the info Ham, would have liked to have had a look at that walk, had no idea about National Walking Day. Unfortunately I won't be walking any long distances for a while :(

I'm thinking that Mr married Ham wasn't interested in buxom ladies at all...just beer - hence the empty cup on the table lol.

Am I the only one looking at the expressions on their faces?

They look a little, what? Sad? Confused?

 

Blogger Ham said ... (21:03) : 

Dutchie - hope your festival was as good as ours.

Pamela - you mean they are wearing low cut tops? I hadn't noticed.

Curly - LOL!

Anon - you mean you think they talk as well? what an original idea.

Kitten Heels - flatter shoes are good for walking ;-) (hope you aren't in pain) and yes, it was the technical issues involved in bottom-fermented beers that I was discussing with them. (strange how anything sound like it has innuendo)

Kat - winsome is what they are doing.

But, where's the beer? The walking tour sounds wonderful Great idea. Incidentally, the girls in the foto look charming!

pmsl Ham I'm saying nothing about froth because that would just be nasty.
And noooo to flat shoes! I need the height ;-)

'winsome', ah, ok.

btw, the barbecue link doesn't seem to be working for me.
