THE LONGEST YARN exhibition at St. Giles Church, Wrexham 5th to 29th October
Highly recommended by Andrew & Anne Collier, a great outing for a school or club
https://stgileschurchwrexham.co.uk/events/the-longest-yarn-2-britain-at-war/
The exhibition takes visitors on a journey through six years that changed Britain.
Across its 80 knitted and crocheted scenes you will encounter stories of evacuation, rationing, the Blitz, the Home Guard, the Women’s Land Army, D-Day and VE Day, alongside the everyday experiences of those who lived, worked, waited and hoped through the war years.
Look closely. The extraordinary detail is part of the experience.
Tiny household objects, clothing, buildings, vehicles and individual characters have all been painstakingly recreated in yarn. Behind them are hundreds of makers who have used their skill and creativity to help tell these stories to a new generation.
This is not simply an exhibition about war. It is about people: their courage and ingenuity, their separation and loss, their humour and resilience, and ultimately their hope for peace.

It is a very long time since we had the very new Brownhill House Garden featured on Gardeners World in 1991 - when we were young and fit and full of energy and plans for the future.
Tonight
BRAMBLE COTTAGE at Shotatton was featured on Gardener`s World
Margaret phoned and alerted me to this very important programme but I am afraid life got in the way and I was not able to publicise the event in time.
But please do watch the programme as the garden is stupendous and quite unlike anything I have ever seen before.
The sad thing about the intervening 35 years is that there is less time to fit in all the things we ought to have done, including visit Bramble Cottage and also New Mills which is also open for the the National Gardens Scheme.
Next year is the 100th anniversary of the first NGS private gardens open to the public. So please make the effort to visit as many NGS gardens as possible including the ones in Ruyton XI Towns and especially Bramble Cottage at Shotatton. Your visits raise so much for all the very worthy charities supported by the NGS.
My apologies to Brigette and Adam.

Cauliflowers looking for a home!
Unfortunately, both our summer and winter cauliflowers have come ready at the same time and I just do not have space in the freezer for any more.
Just let me know if you are interested.
