it's almost here...


......the 1940's weekend at Haworth.
I am very excited.


We plan to go tomorrow as it seems to be a better weather forecast for Saturday. We will arrive by steam train and get the vintage bus up the hill into Haworth.



Unfortunately my mum hasn't managed to finish my 1940's sweater-I will have to wear it next year!
These are some of the things going on over the weekend.

There are dances on Friday and Saturday evening.

The Lancaster fly past on Sunday and the children evacuees arrive by steam train on Sunday too.


They even have some classic films showing.

but I watched this film to get me in the mood!

Will be back with photos soon.

    Have a great time, sounds like its going to be lots of fun.
    Just love that film YANKS, especially the little lad in it ... he always tickled me.

    I'm so jealous....I want to come! Where is Haworth? Don't think it's near Exeter :(
    Looks so much fun, looking forward to hearing all about it :) x

    I hope you have a wonderful time! I am truly envious, I chose to work at the Imperial War Museum because of my slight obsession with 40's fashion and it's one of my favourite periods to design for.

    Have fun! Bethx

    Sounds fabulous! Hope you have a great time. Look forward to reading all about it. I've been using the 'Make do and mend' posters with my Year 3 class this week. We are learning all about what life was like for an evacuee during WW2 this half-term. They have been making Spitfires, gas-masks, Anderson shelters, cooking WW2 recipes and planting potatoes and carrots. All good fun! :) Ros
