Yessiree! May is upon us and that means a couple of Bank Holidays and, sssh, hopefully some decent weather coming our way. It also means the smell of Yeoford will return, but I won’t dwell on that! Anyway, how the devil are you all?! All shipshape and that I hope? April brought us quite a few events in the village, which was great to see. First up we had the ever random Bingo up at the hall, held by the School PTA. Another great turnout and another superb array of prizes...it always surprises me how generous local businesses are! Then we had a couple of quizzes, firstly down at the pub, and the second up at the hall run by the Young Famers. I expect a suitably head - scratching time was had by all! Harking back to March, we now have the near final tally for Yeofest (write -up later in the issue) and it’s looking like being one of our most successful ones ever despite of the snow! As ever, a huge amount of gratitude to all those who helped, sponsored and, of course, came, drank and were merry! Not an awful lot going on in May, but there is the return of the Family BBQ down at the pub on the 25th. So, get down there for meaty fun! That’s it! I’m off to get some sun cream, as it’s going to get hot, I’m absolutely sure of it!!! Until next time...
