Darling Flowers

Last weekend I went up to Darling with a bunch of the gurls. It was the weekend of the Darling Flower Show, but we went up there with a few other intentions ie drinking and wine. "Drink lost of wine, see some flowers" seemed to be the general motto. Friday night was so fantastic. We had a gay old time guzzling bottle after bottle wine, talking, shouting and laughing until around 4am. I remember at some point Tweeting the following gem, uttered by one Miss Helen in a moment of particular wine-induced mirth; "We are pigs of wine!"


On Saturday morning I woke up fully clothed with a head that felt six times its normal size. My eyes were sensitive to the light and the clock read 11:00. I can't imagine what could have caused all this.



Saturday afternoon was spent at the new Darling Brew restaurant/tasting room which is well worth a visit. The service was a little slow, but I think that was due to the sheer volume of visitors to this otherwise peaceful town. This was followed by a leisurely ride on the back of a trailer to view the beautiful flowers that grow wild all over Sarah D's farm. It really was such an amazing sight.
















Thank you Angie for the pretty pictures x
