The fete

Yummy! Hot dogs!No Red Arrows, no sail past by HMS Hermes, no parachute displays but a good time was had by all. There were hot dogs and burgers, bric-a-brac and cakes, pony rides and a coconut shy, tombolas and a bouncy castle, refreshments and a shooting gallery, plants and books for sale. The purpose is to raise money to install central heating in the village hall so that winter events need not be attended wearing woolly jumpers and thick coats.

Well done everyone involved in arranging the fete and thanks for a smashing afternoon - even the weather worked out nicely!

2 careful considerations:

I really want a woolly Jumper.

Which, by the link you gave me, looks to be just an oversized sweater, but I WANT one! And I shall dance in the streets of New Jersey while singing the praises of my Woolly Jumper!

Tsk. A woolly jumper and a sweater have some similarities but they in't the same thing at all! Ya know, rather than learning Turkish I'm still sure you'd be better off learning proper Ingerlish :-)
