In mid afternoon the roasting of the hog started, and by early evening all was ready for the arrival of the villagers. Between 130 and 140 villagers relaxed in the early evening sun, and enjoyed the excellent Hog Roast.  The Hog with particularly good crackling was superbly cooked by Mike Walker and the salads and pudding were prepared by the WI. As the evening got colder the disco started up in the barn. The excellent choice of music got many villagers onto the dance floor, and some of their moves have not been seen for years. A great day was had by all with the festivities ending in the late evening.

A fun afternoon for all!

The choir would always welcome new members, particularly Tenors and Basses.  It meets every Monday evening at 8 p.m

in the home of it’s conductor, Robin, who would be please to discuss membership on 01420 82712 or 07811 466 722.

For 2010, we were entertained by Alton Morris – we even got to join in! In keeping with the atmosphere, the children’s’ fancy dress competition had the theme ‘In an English Country Garden’, with some wonderful imagination in evidence. Under clear blue skies, we wandered from stall to stall, marvelled at the local talent in the Flower Show, and joined in (or cheered on) the various sports, and activities. With ice creams, a barbecue, beer and Pimms and tea and cakes in the rose garden, what more could we ask for…….. another fete next year, please?

As to the purpose of the fete: community spirit is by far the most important aspect of the event. It is eagerly planned and looked forward for months in advance. There is a lot of hard work involved for a significant number of people, but also great satisfaction in working together to create an event that is enjoyed by many more people – not just from our own villages, but from many miles around. The proceeds provide welcome support to a range of village activities, such as family coffee mornings, magic shows for our senior residents and developing a village history archive. It also assists in maintaining our three lovely parish churches.

Please take a look to see what we get up to, and why not join us in 2011?

We are required to nominate the most used 6 Foot paths in our parish that may need clearance during the growing season so please let me know which paths you feel are most in need of attention.

The Hangers Way is already a priority route so this only applies to the other FP’s.

We also have a volunteer group within the Parish who will undertake some of this work from time to time and if you would like to join this group then please contact me.
