Post by JustSharon »

Just a little note, not wanting to be out done, The Georgia and her pals have gone for the Guiness Book of Records conker collecting record.
Daily mail have been and taken pics tonight, local rag and radio 5 live, so now we are all bonkers.
It's all the little moments in life that make it a big adventure.

I don't think kids play with them these days like we used too. I blame the interweb. I remember people used to bake them, soak them in vinegar etc etc

On the conker theme - when I started cutting up my SIKA (which will be transformed into a camper) I found quite a few conkers in the various cavities. It had been parked up in a field so I imagine it could have been a squirrel laying down it's winter larder!
Sorry Georgia, I threw them on my bonfire.
