A Chilly Day and so many Scarecrows!

A walk in the gardens on Sunday 12th Feb was a big surprise as to how many families had ventured out on such a chilly day...it all looked very pretty but as the mist came down and the landscape vanished we wondered if the scarecrows came to life when everyone had gone home. Some of them did look a bit worse for wear slumped against trees as though they’d had a good time the night before! Very inventive, particularly Darth Vader but I did like the Pirate, he seemed to be ready to dash off somewhere...

 Janet and Sheila were doing very well on such a cold day in the marquee with the children’s activities making their own mini scarecrow...but we were glad to get into the restaurant and a hot drink and of course a cake!


Good to see so many people in Tatton on what was not the best of weather.
