A Photo Every Hour - Saturday 17th October

October's Photo an Hour challenge fell on Saturday 17th October - the same day as Taunton carnival (although at this time of year, any Saturday will fall on a Carnival day) :-)


8am - Up early to get ready to head out to an NCT sale in Frome (we'd heard they could be a bit of a bunfight!)


9am - Just about to leave and our garden is beginning to look very autumnal.


10am - Inside the NCT sale and despite what we'd heard, it's rather well organised and very civilised!


11am - Back home and sorting out some of the bits and pieces we picked up at the sale (and just in case you missed it on Twitter, we found out a few weeks ago that Findus is apparently Findina) :-)


12pm - Dropping off some books at the library in Wells before catching the bus down to Taunton to mooch round the charity shops before the Carnival (Andrew was driving down later in the afternoon to join me).


1pm - On the bus, somewhere near Somerton, about halfway to Taunton.


2pm - Ready for charity shopping!


3pm - Just in case I'd forgotten why I (and everyone else) was there today...


4pm - Time for a stop off in Wetherspoons for a cuppa, a sit down and a toilet break.


5pm - Whilst waiting in Primark for Andrew to arrive, these babygro/vest thingies accidentally fell into my basket...


6pm - Back at the car and enjoying some dinner before heading out to find a spot to watch the procession.


7pm - Carnival selfie with me, Andrew and the brother.


8pm - The first of the large floats arrived passed us (if you hadn't guessed, this one is based on the film, Madagascar).


9pm - The last of the large floats (and the end of the procession), Harlequin Carnival Club with their entry based on Phileas Fogg's world tour.


10pm - About halfway home.


11pm - We left the sorting out til Sunday morning!
