south northants summer party, may 2008


 

...... was held at Charlock Farm near Silverstone on May 9th. Our grateful thanks go to Caroline Brocklehurst for her generous hospitality, which made the superb evening possible.

What could be better than a beautiful English May evening in a wonderful Northamptonshire country house and garden? Where else would you want to be? The party was held on the terrace of the garden in warm sunshine, with magnificent views of the Northamptonshire countryside, complete with mares and their foals. Many of us heard the cuckoo for the first time.

Then a big black cloud snuck up on us, unleashing a spectacular thunderstorm and we all had to scuttle indoors, salvaging what we could from tables and a bar that had been set up outside (PP).
