The only really heavy shower we had all day coincided with a one hour indoor music and magic show by Nutty Noah. I could say that we didn't take any photos because of the poor lighting - but in reality we were enjoying ourselves too much to think about taking any pictures. But to give you a quick flavour here is a clip from Youtube of Nutty Noah on his Hornophone - a musical instrument made up of lots of bike horns strapped to a large metal frame. I did think maybe we should get one of these for church instead of the organ.

Nutty Noah and a few animals
The title of this post has nothing to do with the Bible story recorded in Genesis about a large boat and lots of rain. Yesterday we had a great day at Pennywell Farm, getting up close with lots of animals and enjoying an hour of music, magic and mayhem with children's entertainer Nutty Noah. Here are a few photos.

Stroking a hedgehog is ok as long as you only stroke from head to tail. Stroking tail to head is a mistake you only make once.
Even a light shower during lunch would not deter us from our picnic.
Three times round a track with a steering wheel and an accelerator and already insisting she's ready to drive my car now!

Plans for a Rainy Day
Yesterday, we looked at the weather forecast and thought we'd better plan for the first rainy day of our holiday so far. But by mid-morning the sun was shining once again. But we had fun doing our rainy day activities anyway. This morning we went to the swimming pool and this afternoon we painted penguins.
Later this week the two penguins, 'Joanna' and 'Penguin' will be fired in a kiln and will be ready for collection next Thursday, by which time we'll be back in London.

Cricket
Today there was time for cricket practice. With the decisive Fifth Test starting tomorrow which England's men must win if they are to regain the Ashes it is maybe worth remembering that England's Women's Cricket Team are champions of everything this year. And here are future stars in the making!
A great pull shot to the boundary.
