Many thanks to everyone who helped with, and supported St Mary's Church Flower Festival weekend. The promised showers did come, but they failed to dampen everyone's spirits and they did stay away for the afternoon of the fete. The Church looked magnificent with a host of wonderful and imaginative displays depicting Christina festivals and important ecclesiastical events through the ages. The craft demonstrations were immensely interesting and showed what an array of talented people we have living in our locality. The weekend was rounded off with a rousing Songs of Praise service in the church.
