Tenbury Wells and Ludlow 19-20 August

This weekend my Mum and I went visiting her side of the family. We managed to see more of the family than usual which was lovely.
Richard's Castle village hall
On the Saturday evening, myself and Hollie went to a party where her boyfriend, Jake, was playing in his band. The colour of the dark wood indicates how old this building is, which is expectable giving that it is a village hall in Richard's Castle. It was strange to be at an event where you had to take your own drinks as there wasn't a bar, I don't recall ever going to a village hall. This got me thinking about how different venues are still around in the countryside compared to in towns. My town doesn't have a village hall and the one in Richard's Castle is still frequently in use. It turned out that the night was an evening for jive and I got taught how to jive by one of the teachers. It was great to learn something new, however my heels were a bit too high to be moving around the dancefloor so quick.

Hollie, Jake and I

On this night, Hollie and I accidentally wore outfits that included the same colours- white and nudes. These plain, soft colours accentuate Jake's illuminous green suit jacket and tie, even if it didn't need any more attention being drawn to it. This was what Jake wore in his band, his other band mates wearing illuminous orange and purple. As this photograph was taken in a room with little light, our bright and light coloured clothing makes us the focal point. If I could take this photograph again, I would make sure there was nobody in the background as the flowery patterned top to the right detracts some attention away from the subject.

Olives in Ludlow Food Centre
On Sunday, Mum and I met up with her family that live in Ludlow at a summer fun day. For lunch, we picked a selection of foods from cous cous to scones. However, I have included this photograph of olives in my blog as this is a new food that I have enjoyed over the summer in various places; Barcelona, many restaurants and in Ludlow. Olives are a food that I never used to like as they have a strong taste, but now I love them.
