Saturday 15th August 2020 …. ‘VJ 75 Day’ …… Tommy stood guard over the new WI commemorative planter outside the Village Hall …. bunting was raised around the Village Hall, as well as down Oaklands Close ….. as residents came out on their driveways to commemorate, & celebrate 75 years since the end of the Second World War with ‘Victory in Japan’. Friends were invited to join residents…. picnics were eaten, wine drunk (as well as tea/coffee, the odd G&T, Prosecco etc) and cake was shared. We were even ‘visited’ by a vintage car & tractor!
The weather kept good for us for most of the time – a slight shower sent us indoors for a brief spell, but we were back out in the evening for a ‘concert’ & sing-a-long.
A lovely time was had by everyone – it was so good to meet up with neighbours & friends!
