Rushden Village Fete - 20 June 2015

with thanks to John Dingemans and Tim Fisher

Never trust a long range (even short range) weather forecast and so it turned out a bit damp. What the Irish would call a ‘soft day’! Very soft!!

Did it matter? NO, it definitely did not.

Rushden had a cracking good fete started off by the Aviva Ladies Cycle Tour. Not only did we have the usual fun games and stalls on the village green but also, in the car park, some outsider stalls, a fantabulous BBQ, a PIMMS tent and for the first time a ‘jazz’ tent with Dave, Nance and others plus some local ‘talent!’. What with the scrumptious teas in the hall the whole event went with a swing! Even the beer barrel went dry and that was a first!

There are too many names to thank but one has to be mentioned and that is Ann Garrott who was the ‘mastermind’ behind this year’s fete. She deserves all praise especially since, despite other local attractions we matched last year’s takings. Anyone who reads this who was not there should watch carefully for the date for next year!! CW.
