We took a visit to Amberley Museum today, it closes in a couple of weeks for the winter months :(
We met some new home ed friends there and introduced them to some of our favourite parts. We printed our names in the print workshop and it's lovely to note that some of the volunteers there are beginning to recognise us and engage with the smalls it such an enthusiastic way. Today the gentleman in the print shop made a print just for Plum...her first of many I suspect!
The boys rode on the bus whilst I walked the route and we went into the telecommunications building and played morse code and semaphore and telephone operators. Bean was particularly interested in the different machines they used in aeroplanes to communicate and why they would need them. Fortunately the information given in the museum is comprehensive.
We also went to see the wood turner and saw someone new today who's speciality is making pens. He was very obliging and did a demonstration for us.
We took a train ride together and sat in the barn to eat a late lunch. Thankfully I had taken hot chocolate and soup as I had forgotten my coat and Wellies and it was wet all day, I was rather damp.
