Weekly Photo Challenge: Waiting

To catch to the apples

For the next breath

 

The right note

 

For the customers to arrive

 

For her make-up to be finished

 

For Cricket tea

 

Just a few of the things to wait for at Apple day, Cockington, Torbay. Held each October to celebrate the autumn fruit harvest. Juice is pressed in the traditional way with lots of different apple varieties on display. Once again this year the sun shone and everyone relaxed in the grounds listening to live music with Punch and Judy, a worlds worth of food choices and lots of ale and cider to taste. Kids, costumes, jam, dogs and of course lots of tempting crafts. A very happy and eventful family day out in Devon.

About Lucid Gypsy

Gilly Mbachu Goldsworthy is a mum to two kids that are supposed to be grown up and mma to a four year old and a new born baby boy. None of that means that I am grown up though! I love writing – travel and quite edgy fiction – and being an OU student for a degree which remains to be seen. What I do best though is counselling; I’ve been privileged to work with many people through big changes.

  25. Hi Gilly! I get a smile every time I click over to your blog because you have the same theme as I do and it’s always fun to see the theme from someone else’s perspective! I love your collection of photos for WAITING! Very festive and Devon looked like the place to be :) We have an Apple Festival in October too! It is great fun and an excuse to eat all things apple and other great foods. “a worlds worth of food choices” – oh yeah! yum!
