STRATTON AUDLEY CHRISTMAS FAYRE

Saturday 2nd November can be remembered on two accounts.   England unfortunately NOT winning the rugby world cup and Stratton Audley Fayre being a very happy occasion – by contrast.

There was a great mix of excellent quality local stalls and, after shopping, what better way to revive oneself than with a cup of coffee and a slice of delicious cake!   Thank you to everyone who made the fantastic cakes!

This week has seen raffle prizes delivered, and believe it or not a couple of enquiries from potential stall holders wanting to have a stall for next year!!

Needless to say lots of great big thank you’s;  to Becky and the great team of ladies who worked tirelessly serving the teas and cakes and the men who helped the stall holders carry their goods to and from their cars.   Also a big thank you to Stephanie and Yvonne who ably helped man the tombola stall (always a great draw!) which – like the raffle – had some fantastic donations from villagers.   A total of just over £1000 was made which was great.

Shall we do it again next year?   Maybe we could think about it in 2020?
