A change of plans ...

In my last post I described the kinds of things that we do during the last few hours before the Donkey Derby. Well, this has been a busy week-end, but rather different from what we had planned. This morning, Sandhurst Town Council decided that the event could not go ahead - recent rain has left some areas on the Car Park field too soft for use.

Our fall back date is Sunday 24 June, so I and other members of the Committee have been anxiously ringing around today to let stallholders and others know that they need not turn up tomorrow.

Let's hope that the weather is rather kinder to us in June so that we can raise that money for charity.
