Come one, come all!

Lots of superb stalls selling all sorts of handmade fare.  Liz's food stall is always a sell out within the first half-hour so well worth coming early for the delicious treats on offer there.  Everyone's welcome so come along, enjoy a glass of mulled wine and mince pie while you do a spot of Christmas Shopping.  We look forward to seeing you!

Friday's Mexican 'Dia de los Muertos' Feast at the library was amazing - we raised just over £500 for the library!  The fancy dress costumes were brilliant (Martin's 'Chinese' attire was slightly off brief but he more than made up for it with the Tequila -not a drop left by the end of the evening).  David made a toxic punch which was drank in its entirety.  Liz's menu was inspired and delicious, and quite unbelievably carried off considering there's no oven at the library and she had to cook the lot in advance before transporting it over from her house.  Everyone seemed to have a grand time so thank you to all who came along and those who helped out decorating beforehand and clearing up afterwards. (Masses of washing up!)

There's more photos of guests in costume over on the library facebook page, but here's the decorated room...

We thought this little book apt for wishing everyone a happy halloween.  By 'a mere phantom',it was published in 1880 by Houlston and Sons. "The increased use of the Magic Lantern as a means of beguiling the long evenings of winter, render a brief and simple guide for the unscientific purchaser not only desirable, but necessary."
