The Knitted Bible Comes To Evesham

Oh my goodness, you'll never guess what's coming to Evesham in the next week or so ........ ONLY the knitted bible, well, thirty six stories in woollen form from it at the very least!


Let me tell you, the ever fragrant one did an abrupt about turn when she noticed that the church nearest us (where we go to vote) had a very nice, new notice board outside and on it, resplendant ..........


........ a poster advertising the Knitted Bible to be on display between 21st May and 5th June. She said her heart started beating ten to the dozen, knowing exactly what Eric's reaction to such biblical news would be, having such fond memories of the Motor World knitted nativity back in the homeland and now with his own set, a wonderful and emotional gift from our best beloved Seaside Karen a couple of Christmas's ago.


We'd heard of the exhibition some years ago, I think we even posted about it on our old blog, but, to be honest, never ever dreamed we'd get to see it in actual, real, real life, especially in Evesham!  


Even without seeing it, we already feel totally blessed in a Hello Magazine and holy type way!


It goes without saying that if we lose Eric while it's on, I think we'll know exactly where to find him between the hours of 10.00 am and 4.00pm! 


Admission is free, but I know the little fella will be going through his piggy bank to make sure he gives a good account of himself.  As and when he pays his first visit, no doubt accompanied by Alice, you'll be first to see their reactions, especially Eric's!  Happy, happy, happy, happy days!

Oh my word, Christmas really has come early for Eric! What a spectacle it will be, I wish I lived nearer but look forward to lots of photos!

36 stories! That’ll keep Eric occupied for quite some time. I think the other monkeys will need to buy some ear defenders LOL!

That looks brilliant - I have contacted the people responsible for the event and asked if they are coming to our area. I have looked up the tour and currently it appears they are not - but thought it is worth asking! JantheFan X

In ref to the above post - I did contact the organiser about the exhibition coming to our area and sadly we are not on their list - I'm going into a corner to cry.....! (well not literally putting myself in the corner) but have to say I'm a tad disappointed. JantheFan X
