Poynings Fete
Just in case you have been living under a stone recently and haven’t realised, the village Fete is this Saturday.
It looks like the sun will be shining so get over there and spend some money for the church in case it falls down J
This is a great chance to catch up on gossip, see the great events going on, get round the Maypole, watch the puppets, drink the Pimms and this year you can even be a detective for the afternoon. Who did Murder Tracey Rounder, can you figure it out at the Fete Accompli event, he or she might be your neighbour? Scary…
If you aren’t there you will never know!
