On Friday evening we went to see Giffords Circus at Cheltenham Racecourse with Rob & Laura...it was GREAT! The show this year is called Yasmine and it’s all about Yasmine Smart who has a lifelong partnership with horses…

The show itself never fails to amaze, and as mentioned by Chris Evans on his show last week it most definitely is ‘the best ticket in town’…
Go while you can!! - they’re touring until the 12th September - see http://www.giffordscircus.com

After the show, we had some circus food with ‘Circus Sauce’ - a unique 42 seat travelling restaurant that is part of the circus on tour. Every evening after the show, they serve a starlit 3 course dinner (using fresh seasonal and local ingredients) to the artistes and the audience…
