Easter Eggstravaganza

Despite the weather, we had another wonderful turn-out at our Easter Eggstravganza with lots of decorated eggs for Councillor Richard Johns to judge – thank you Richard for Easter Egg prizes.  Excitement grew before the judging and then the Egg Rolling Races,  as Easter bonnets were decorated and little fingers had fun with colouring pens and stickers,
while a roaring trade was done in cakes and very pink biscuits, with plenty of coffee and tea. 
And then warmly dressed out into the cold for the races
