Henley Royal Regatta two weeks today
The tradition, the flare, the greetings of old friends, the making of new friends, the Remenham roar, the pops of corks, crews past & present, Bucks vs Berks, ragged blazers, Pimms on tap, boaters and a whole heap of fun.
I bought these place mats in a Henley charity shop several years ago and I love them. I imagine they’re homemade with individual pictures and captions for each. It represents to me what Regatta means to many and that’s a whole lot. Years of traditions and ceremony for many and a new step into an event steeped in history for others.
I’m delighted to be back in town doing picnics again this year - thanks for your orders. Orders close at the end of the week so roll up, roll up and grab a scrummy fresh, locally sourced picnic!
