My Mum and Dad said we were going to the Camel Races for Bank Holiday. I didn’t really know what a camel was, but it was good fun to shout ‘Camel!’ all the way in the car.

As you know I have a new brother called Drum and he needs lots of things if we go anywhere like bottles and muslins and blankies and Moby wraps and we also wanted to take a picnic too, but thankfully we got everything in the magic PacaPod bag no probs – and I packed my apple juice and raisins and sunscreen and toys in my bag as well.

The Camel Races are held at a place called Northaw and they also race ferrets and ponies and hounds as well – but in lots of races, not just in one big one.

 

They have a fair with a helter skelter slide and things you can win and also a bar for  Daddies to get beer.

Camels are quite big and they don’t always do what they are told so it isn’t that easy to bet on them. We just bet on the red one – but luckilly it came in first!

We weren’t so lucky trying to win a pig tho…
