Thank you to everyone who helped prior to the event by strimming the churchyard, doing great graphics, publicity, shopping, planning, finances and the transporting and setting up of the furniture and tent. On the day thank you to Margery Davies for opening the fete so elegantly and to everyone who baked, donated prizes and goods, loaned furniture, gave plants and produce and manned all of the stalls, the draw and the busy tea tent.
