Santa Sleigh Run

Message from Colin.

Santa toured the village on his Sleigh last night on a final check to make certain he knows where all the good children live. We know that his tour brought a lot of pleasure to many of the village children (maybe the lollipops he was giving out had something to do with that as well) and several of them walked quite a long way with him in absolutely pouring rain - so very well done to them (especially A & A - you know who you are!)

His trip was hosted by the Village Hall Committee, who took the opportunity to have a collection to help fund repairs and maintenance of our Village Hall.
Despite the horrendous weather we made more money for the Village Hall than we did last year, so a real success.

Here's a photo of a dry Santa on his sleigh before we set off! Later photos show a very bedraggled (but still happy) Santa!

Many thanks to the volunteers who made his trip happen, and to the generous folk who sponsored his visit with their donations - the collection raised over £100
