ARMED FORCES DAY ANDOVER 26th June

A very hot day was spent yesterday at Andover for another Armed Forces event.  Very well supported again with lots of activities for everyone.  The little TIGERS children's motorcycle display team were brilliant.  Taking their little bikes through fire and over ramps.

The Red Devils parachute display team flew in, the strong sunshine made it difficult to see them up at 5,000 feet, but as always a very impressive show:  You get the idea though!!







And of course no Show would be complete without handful of Motorbikes!  there were a good 25 from the Royal British Legion Riders Branch

VETERANS DAY PARADE WEYMOUTH 19th June

Yesterday Sunday 19th June saw Paul and I take the Harley for its first long ride since the engine rebuild!  It was the Veterans Day Parade in Weymouth and we have attended this for the past three years as part of The Royal British Legion Riders Branch.  The Branch is made up of Military Veterans and still serving members of the Armed Forces as well as non members of the Armed Forces all who have an interest in riding motorcycles.  We now have just under 5,000 members, scattered all over the UK.  I think you will find the pictures below tell their own story, this parade is well supported in Weymouth and the people go to great lengths to dress the part!   The parade too a good hour from beginning to end and as always it was a pleasure to be part of such an event:  

 Our Harley in the middle!

Latest Bears!

May/June was the month for the Gemini Birthstone Bear - I made PEARL, enjoyed making this lovely white Bear and even made the little necklaces of Pearls to go round each Teddies neck, my beginnings at jewellery making are growing!
#1 headed for the USA very quickly followed by numbers 2, 3, 4 and 5

The June/July Bear is coming along now ready for all those Cancer Birthdays!

I did make a smaller version of Pearl at just 8" for Sue (my Sister in law) 60th Birthday on the 7th June.

Then lastly this past week I had a commission for a little ones Christening Bear - 'AXL' he is a 15" cuddly Bear, with blue and silver trimmings
ready for the end of the month
Lastly was the competition I ran at the beginning of the month - I made 'Mocha Chocó Latte' and opened this competition only to my mailing list members.  Sue Douma from the USA was lucky one! and Mocha Chocó Latte is well on his way to her now.
