What a lovely fresh-air fete-ette it was!, with pub nearby for evening refreshments and cor-blimey kneesup jollity. Yes!
Be prepared to bear those knobbly knees! Ms Elfa of Wilmot is lined up to judge, with a prize for the knobbliest!
Estimators, get estimating! Sweeties in the jar to be won for whoever comes closest to the guessing how many there are! Yes I'm an editor and yes! that's a terrible sentence! Roll up! Roll up!
Wheels keep rolling, tombolas keep turning! Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Do a challenge to take your turn at the tombola! A feast of treats awaits you!
