Hedingham castle Vintage and classic car show



We had a rather lovely day out at The Vintage and Classic car show held at the Beautiful Hedingham castle.
It was a lovely sunny day, so we spent a lot of time sitting on the grass, sipping Pimms and listening to the Jazz band.








My favourite:

Lovely things:

1) Watching Whitney - reminds me of me and my hubbie.
2) Learning to crochet.
3) Dipping luxury chocolate chip shortbread into tea

Sounds like a fun day out. Such a stunning castle and grounds. I like the vintage cars, I think my favourite one is the vintage blue car in the third photo :) (as you can see I am not up on the actual car names though..haha :P).
I would defiantly be paying that milkshake van a visit, just couldn't resist!
Enjoy the yummy shortbread cookies and the cups of tea (hope the crochet is going well).

Hedingham is a great place to visit - if you ever get the chance go when they have the jousting. We took our boys many years ago and they loved it - little son even got Knighted!!

It looks like you had a great day! And what great photos!!!
How are you learning to crochet? I've just crocheted a few granny squares and little, simple toys. Can you recommend any good beginner projects/books???
Happy Friday!

Visually refreshing! Vintage cars + scenic background = perfect vintage car show! Looking at the photoset, I can already feel the classic, breezy ambience. I love the perfect spot of that car in the first photo! =)

Scenic, indeed! Hosting a vintage car show around a Victorian castle just makes a perfect sense. The setting, including the green landscape, the big castle, and the September sun definitely played a great role in distributing the vintage ambience around the place. :’>
