On Saturday we went to a fair at Hamstreet Kent.
There were lots of traditional stalls and lovely things to eat.
One of the displays was a old fashioned apple press, i have seen it before and had spoken to the gentleman who owned the machine once before.
This time i noticed a bucket full of wooden flowers that had been handmade , i asked the lady on the stall if i could buy a few.
We started talking and she told me her husband had made the flowers and that he was a Romany Gypsy, i mentioned that some of my family were as well and that we came from Erith.
She couldn't believe it and took me over to see her husband.

We quickly discovered that we were related . Amazing.
What a small world i am going to see them again at The Kent County show at Detling Maidstone which is coming up soon.
They still go fruit picking and i had a lovely time talking to them,
