Taken last summer, in the refreshment area in the grounds of a large commercial sunflower field, which opens to the public every year. This was quite late in the day and unfortunately the Gin Emporium was closed, so we had to make do with coffee and cake :(

I know it's been insanely popular this past half-decade (here in Spain too) but the only gin I like is sloe gin where the taste of the gin is non-existent!
I bet they don't sell that!
But it's a lovely little van and a superb tree. Keith!

I love those old vans. There seems to be a lot about now, selling all sorts. First time I have seen a Gin Emporium though! Coffee and cake sounds good to me.

The sky is beautiful and you have framed it beautifully around the tree and van. The glimpse of sunflowers beyond look lovely. Is that yours on the table?

Thanks Rosa.............glad you like the shot. It was a lovely end to a very nice day out with both our daughters and the grandchildren.

The sunflowers on the bench had been left behind by someone I think. Everyone could take 6 blooms away with them, included in the entrance fee. I was just there for the photography :-))

A magnificent tree and a lovely place to sit and enjoy a little tipple. Lots of gin distilleries have opened up in Scotland but I haven't yet noticed and Gin Emporiums.

Bonjour keith. Cette photo est magnifique. En plus il y a cette camionnette. (En France, ce modéle est mythique, nous l'appelons "Le tube") Un des plus lointain souvenir que j'ai de mon enfance, c'est le boulanger qui nous livrait le pain avec un cheval.Puis, ce fut avec un "Tube".Je me souviens encore de l'odeur du pain lorsqu'il ouvrait la porte arriere. Plus, tard, lors de mon 1er travail j'ai eu l'occasion d'en conduire un. Citroen devrait en reconstruire à nouveau avec une mécanique moderne. Ce serait bien. Tu semble toujours inspiré trés bavorabmement par les tournesols. Amicalement. Jean Paul

Glad you like my photo Jean Paul. These old Citroen vans are quite popular in England. They're mainly used for selling food and drink, but a lot of people fit them out as camper-vans.

I quite like Citroen cars.............I'm currently driving a 10 year old Citroen C4 Picasso :-)

Effectivement Keith. Il me semble avoir vu la belle couleur rouge de cette Citroën agrémenter certaines de tes photos. Bon week end à toi. Jean Paul
