What a won
derful evening we had on Sunday and raised a magnificent £400 to send to the RNLI. A fascinating quiz expertly compered by Peter stretched the brain cells, the fish pies and the alternative veggie lasagna were yummy and the lemon tarts and special brownies absolutely delicious, and then we had a great singalong of sea shanties with Bygonz

Lydart Farm Walk on 11 September 2016
Local walk to explore historic Lydart Farm and enjoy Diana’s scones
A beautiful day for a walk and thoroughly enjoyed by those who walked up and those who met them at Lydart Farm. Thank you so much to Diana and David Price for their hospitality.
A soggy but enjoyable Village Fayre

Well that was a soggy day, wasn’t it! But the horrible weather could not dampen the enthusiasm of our wonderful volunteers as they set up the tents, stalls and games nor diminish the wonderful aroma of the Hot Dogs sizzling on the BBQ. Those who braved the elements seemed to thoroughly enjoy themselves, joining in the dog show and the fun and games. And the VPA Show was another resounding success with beautiful displays of flowers and produce, cakes and preserves and, of course, the children’s entries.
