As we speed rapidly into January it’s long past time to reflect on the Christmas Celebrations that took place way back at the start of December.

Firstly on Saturday the 8th the Christmas Dinner went off well. The event was as packed as ever but with three long lines of tables filling the hall rather than the usual four, navigation to serve and sell raffle tickets was a lot easier. Turkey was eaten, wine was drunk and Carols were sung (though talk was of different entertainment for next year… time will tell). In general a good time was had by all. Thanks to the David and Catherine Waller, the village hall committee and all those who attended for a great night.

Sunday 9th saw the Children of the village replace the adult population for the Children’s Christmas party. After the success of last years party entertainment was once again provided by Joe Ridgely (CreativeShows.co.uk) who kept the over 40 children - ranging in age from a few months to early teens - enthralled for over an hour. Magic and Disco were combined with team games like Mummy rapping with toilet paper and silly string hair dressing. A huge party tea was devoured the Santa arrived with presents for all. Once again a great success and lots of thanks to Rachel Tipping for organizing, all the mums who made and brought such delicious food, and everyone else who helped and attended for making it such a fantastic success.
