The Autumn Show on Saturday 4th September was a great success. As usual the Memorial Hall was very colourful with a magnificent display of vegetables, fruits and flowers and a good variety of entries in the home craft and photography classes. Sadly the children's section was not as well represented as usual - the scarecrows were greatly missed. The prizes awarded were: |
| Phil Knights Cup Adam Curtis | Presidents Cup Adam Curtis |
| Debenham Cup Sakine Faulkner | Brewery Cup for photography Dave Coates |
| Rose Brown Cup Jasmine Faulkner | Diploma for Excellence in Horticulture Christopher Barry |
| Edge and Bolton Cup for Floral Art Sheila Lilley and Ann Faulkner |
Certificate of Merit in Floral Art Nancy Longmore |
| W.I.Cup for Home craft Sally Wood | The Novice Certificate in Floral Art Sakine Faulkner |




We have had a few evenings of unexpected firework displays. We do not wish to spoil anyone's fun but what about the poor stressed animals? It is bad enough when bonfire night is from October to December, but at least on Bonfire night, we can treat our pets with medication.
All we ask is perhaps a notice put up in a public place for us all to see to make arrangements for the pets.Simon Paul Sumners and Jeanette Trudy Stowe were married at St Peter's Church on 31st July 2004 Ivor Charles Matthews and Jacqueline Jane Davidson were married at St Peter's Church on 4th September 2004 Alistair John Barratt and Judith Dawn Williams were married at St Peter's Church on 11th September 2004 Charles Rupert Millen Whittington and Victoria Louise Perris were married at St Peter's Church on 3rd July 2004 |
