William the Fairground Car

Hi everyone, It was Easter here this weekend, and as we had already celebrated the UK Easter, it all seemed great fun but very tiring. Glad it is over now and 'normality' can resume.
Had great fun at one of the Bars in the resort. The bar owner asked me to bake some Hot Cross Buns, as they are not available here, and the 'brits' do miss them.
Spent 4 hours making them, took them to the bar, where they were holding an Auction in aid of a local children's Summer Camp, and I have to say they sold like - well - Hot Cakes!!

When there was just one left, several people wanted it, so it was suggested that 'it' was auctioned for the summer camp.
While they were getting that 'organised' - a lady walked into the bar, said she had enjoyed the bun she had just eaten - lifted the dome, and took the last bun, saying she had already got a plate!!!!

Fortunately, everyone saw the funny side of it, and the lady walked out (with her bun) not knowing what they were all laughing at!

I think I will have a 'Bun Baking' day next Easter.

Hope you all had fun at Easter, and did not eat TOO much chocolate!

Follows is just a very short excerpt from my book. Hope you like it - PLEASE COMMENT (and share this page).

The Circus Comes to Town.
William the fairground car and his friends on the merry-go-round were chatting in very excited voices.

They had heard Tom saying that a circus had set up in a field just down the road, and they were going to have the clowns come to the fairground to meet the children.

They were all looking forward to seeing the clowns, and enjoying the fun they would give to everyone.
