  "middle age spread" made me laugh all the cream teas by any chance.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  a correction to my post is in order admission is £.2 for adults and £.1 for children.
  
  the £.5 i mentioned is for the gardens on sunday the 17th between 2 pm and 5 pm.
  
  dogs are welcome but there will be intermittent cannon and gun fire.
  
  all proceeds to st clements church.

  been sent some pictures of the event in sandwich, a truly great event i'm told with plenty for people to get hands on with as well as watch.
  
  sandwich technology college threw open their gates to enable people to park, even then some had to park in the road.
