Weather fails to dampen spirits in Birmingham and Bristol!

Following a glorious weekend in Leeds and Newcastle, more typical British weather greeted the tour when it arrived in Birmingham and Bristol - rain. However, it didn’t seem to dampen anyone’s enthusiasm for our pancakes!

Take a look at our gallery of images from Birmingham and Bristol.

Were you there? See if you can spot you and your friends!

Birmingham
Despite the weather, our visit to Birmingham was extremely busy, with the queue for pancakes remaining steady throughout the day. Perhaps this was down to our prime position outside the Bullring, or the fact that the people of the Midlands didn’t seem to mind a bit of wet weather. In fact, we gave away the most pancakes so far – 1800!

Bristol
It was much sunnier in the West Country, and we had a steady flow of people visiting the van, eating pancakes and leaving messages. It wasn’t just humans that made the effort though – the local pigeons also seemed to be very intrigued by what was going on!

Next stop… Norwich on 24 May and Peterborough on 25 May – come and see us if you’re in the area!
