Apologies for the late notice; our wedding is at 2.30pm on Saturday 21st May.

There will be a rehearsal at 3.30 on the Friday – we will make sure to keep cars to a minimum.

On the day we will be leaving the church in a tractor and trailer at about 3.45; the tractor will parked by the church for 5 mins while we ‘load up’!  I hope this won’t cause any inconvenience.

Bagpath residents:

We are having the reception in a marquee at Ashcroft. The party will go on until…..

We apologise if this disturbs anyone.

Thank you so much

Bea

Come and find out all about sherry and taste six different sherries and a manzanilla, along with appropriate tapas……and – before you ask – one will be an Amontillado, but the others will be ones your maiden aunt never dreamt of! (Or, for pedants, of which your maiden aunt never dreamed).

Tickets are just £5 and are available from Carol Paton.

Friday 20th May
7pm in the Village Hall

Graham Nicholls organised a bonfire on land between Kingscote and Bagpath and many villagers gathered there at 8.30pm on 21st April to toast the Queen on her 90th birthday with a drink from the Hunter’s Hall.

And a Right Royal Knees-Up it was, with the planting of a tree in the churchyard to commemorate the Queen’s 90th Birthday, tea and cakes fit for a Queen at the Village Hall, the surprise arrival of the queen of the village, Vida Sutton (the VIP guest) and a talent show by the very enthusiastic children (and a few adults, too).  It was an event the Queen would have been proud of, wonderfully organised by Seema Bowers and her able helpers on the Knees-Up Committee.
