Village Life

In contrast to this morning's cold start, Saturday was sunny and warm - absolutely perfect for the Hurst Green Village Fair. It was great to see the event so well supported with stalls publicising and raising money for a variety of local causes and organisations. Among the many there included the Rotary & Inner Wheel, Hurst green Scouts - running a very satisfying crockery smashing stall -, three of the Churches (St John's, Pains Hill Chapel and the Evangelical Church), Oxted One World Group, a couple of the play groups, the Hurst Green Society and many more all to the backdrop of music from the Oxted Band and refreshments served by the Aggies on the Green group.

It was great to bump into so many people from the local area (literally in some cases as it was so busy). And to top it all I managed to win a prize on the tombola! An enjoyable way to pass the last Saturday of the Summer.
