Another spectacular and colorful Flower Show, organised by the Colin Barber (Show Secretary) was held on Saturday 30 August at the Village Hall. with lots of entries including those for the Junior classes and organisations. All the exhibits were up to a very high standard, despite the hot and dry summer. Those that visited the show in the afternoon enjoyed the display as well as a chat over cup of tea and piece of cake.

Thanks go not only to Colin, but also to the whole Committee and other helpers who worked hard to set up the display stands on Friday evening, and all day on Saturday organising the exhibits, supporting the judges, writing out the prize cards, making cakes and serving the teas in the afternoon. But most of all thanks also go to everyone that visited the show and making it such a community atmosphere.

For those that missed the show this page shows below the results and a selection of photos showing the colourful displays and exhibits of the day.
