Whit henge draws the sun worshippers!


It couldn't have been a better day for the visit of Sacrilege, aka the Stonehenge bouncy castle, to Whitstable.
The replica of the Salisbury Plain icon was designed by Turner-prize winning artist Jeremy Deller for London 2012 and is touring the country. We 'got it' for one day today as part of the Whitstable Biennale art festival.
I went along to see the queues and have a good look, though as my experience on bouncy castles is rather an exhausting one I declined the (free) offer to have a go.
 
It looked great fun, though, with plenty of room to avoid collisions and gave many children out to make the most of the September sun a perfect end to the school summer holiday. The chosen 'sacred' site, by the way, was at the end of Marine Drive, Tankerton, near the Priest and Sow.
