East Tytherley Country Fayre

A few snaps from yesterday at East Tytherley Country Fayre. We were really lucky with the weather all day,  the rain held off and the sun shone through, it was a little windy at times and one of the gazebos took off but we got it back and tied it down; not mine thankfully.

The country fayre is to raise money for repairs to the church roof and to bring the local people together. I was born only 1/2mile from where the fayre takes place and indeed I could see the house from my stand. My mum was helping out on the cake stall, selling the cakes which she makes for this event each year and giving all of the money to the fund.

I met some people from my school days which I hadn't seen for many, many years; it was good to catch up with them.

My stand, in between the cake stall and the BBQ; perfect

A very large crowd was present all day

These were amazing. They are created by Mandy Flynn and are made out of wire.
