I remember a lot of noses being put out of joint in the village when someone from ourside entered nearly every class one year and swept the board. My children spent half their summer holidays preparing exhibits and were thrilled to win 20p prize money!<br />I particularly like the cup cakes in terracotta pots and the miniature garden.Annehttp://www.annewheaton.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1125904710470855608.post-43784790203429594602016-08-28T09:12:41.126+01:002016-08-28T09:12:41.126+01:00Thank you Brian for a lovely write up, and lots of...Thank you Brian for a lovely write up, and lots of pictures!
