London Free List

Bill writes: We often think of what we could be doing in London. And the main way we usually decided what to do when we were there--which we aren't now, but wish we were--was to look at the London Free List.

Here's what's available tomorrow. I present it unedited and without comment:

SHEEP & WOOL FAIR

Sunday 4 June 06
12noon – 4pm
Admission Free

A family day celebrating the role of sheep in all our lives – from the knitted sweater we wear to the carpet we walk on. Visitors will be able to meet our friendly sheep and observe traditional crafts such as sheep shearing and the spinning of wool. There will be a BIG KNIT-IN with the Cast Off Knitting Club, a display about Sheep and Wool History, workshops in felt making, animal mask-making and face-painting, stalls with woolly items, refreshments with sheep biscuits and chocolate droppings and World Café discussions on sustainability. Highlights of the day include Sheep Racing, Guess the Weight of the Fleece, Best Shepherd and Shepherdess of Spitalfields Fancy Dress Contest and the opportunity to feed the animals and meet our new “Teddy Bear” sheep (rare breed Southdowns) and have your photo taken! Bhaamy music will be played by The Lost Marbles String Band.
