General

Thanks for your support at the Fete

A huge thank you to everybody who helped at the fete on Sunday and to everybody else who came along to support, despite the rain. It was a really fun and very well-supported afternoon and we managed to raise just over £1,100. We have quickly put together some photos you can download here and we will upload the originals individually in the next few days. Thanks again, Ginny & Bridget.

The fete is still on!

It looks like the worst of the rain is falling now (7:30am) and that it will lighten a little during the day, so the fete is still on. Besides, it will take more than a few showers to dampen the enthusiasm of the villagers of north Oxfordshire! We are calling for anyone with a gazebo to please bring it to the Manor this morning if possible. Also, parasols, oversize umbrellas, etc. We look forward to seeing as many as possible between 2 and 5pm today at the Manor.
