Tweedy the clown

Spent the morning helping out at the Fun Ride at the Cotswold Farm Park - every 3 weeks horses and riders are able to ride round a 14 mile course - it's very popular with almost 150 riders. I was covering for Adam who had a lunch appointment.

In the evening we went to the local visiting circus - this is an annual trip for us. It was a lovely show the acrobat/balancing group were fantastic, the jugglers amazing and the star of the show was the funny man 'Tweedy', such a talented chap, juggling, horse riding, trapeze and best of all making everybody laugh - in one routine he walked over a woman juggling some daggers while wearing a kilt with no underpants - the lady laid on the floor covered her eyes!

After the show we went to the local pub adjacent to the circus field - there was a local band playing.

All round a very enjoyable day
