Stripefest 2 - 11 September 2012 Windsor, Berkshire

 

Many will be aware that one of my past times is to play a FB game called Fairyland and over the past three years I have met a lot of wonderful players. Some time ago I became friends with Rowan, Liz and Vivien and was invited to join the 'Positive Thinking Takes the Chocolate Biscuit aka the Choccy Biccy Club" :). Our avatars on FL were all stripey animals:

• Rowan - Zebbie the Zebra
• Liz - Dunkie the Donkey
• Vivien - Scary Tiger
• Jan - Bandy the tabby cat

Rowan, Liz and Vivien live in the UK and some time ago Rowan and Vivien met at the London Zoo for the inaugural Stripefest. They had an absolute ball so over time we decided to hold Stripefest 2 and this time Liz and I joined Rowan and Vivien at Windsor.



 The surprise of the day was the gorgeous Bandit doppelganger that was presented to me by Rowan :)  Here are the Stripeys sitting patiently on the seat outside Windsor Castle - no doubt waiting for the humans to behave themselves!

We had a great day exploring Windsor including a 40 minute boat trip on the Thames. Here is an image of Vivien, Rowan and Liz getting into stripey mode!

 

It was with a lot of sadness that I left the others that afternoon - although lots of  great memories for the day and planning for Stripefest 3 ahead!
