Would be good to see you again Mike. We're at Eastnor Deer Park, near Ledbury at the end of the month ...

Information for this event have now been distributed by email or post according to your preference. If you haven't received an email copy, check your spam filters or get in touch.

There is an addition to the activities this year. On Friday night, in the bandstand, we are recreating the heady days of Abigail's Party (1977). Bring you own food and share it around. 1970s clothing positively encouraged.

If you don't know Abigail's Party then see Alison Steadman's recipe tips here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PN76VhjoD7s

See you there!

We will be holding the 4th annual Crabbing contest at this bash.
1300 hrs at the boating lake on main car park Looe, for 1 hour.
It is tradition for last years winner to supply an appropriate trophy if attending.
I do have a back up Cup.
This is a fun event so none of last years scullduggery will be tolerated. :roll:
Always be ready for a Top Up!
