Here are some pictures of yesterday's Street Party. Despite looming rain, and competition from the opening matches of Euro 2016, we had a good turn out and a fun time. Many thanks for all the work that went into this from Seal Church and the Know Your Neighbours group. It takes a lot of planning and organisation.

Laying the tables - lots of them! |
|
The Messy Church activities looking suspiciously organised and unMessy (but only until people actually arrived and started cutting and sticking!) |
|
We made crowns, and a giant community poster, to be photographed and sent to the Queen. |
|
The refreshment team waiting for business. Thanks to all who baked and served. |
|
Our Messy Church card, in the background, was starting to collect greetings. |
|
Dark clouds loomed, but the rain held off until near the end. |
|
Stephen led us in some singing. |
|
The Hokey Cokey was an inevitable part of the proceedings. |
|
We repaired to the village hall for the... |
|
...belly dancing. There are normally 6 or 7 of us, but only two, including me, could make it on this day. My co-dancer, Carolyn, was brilliant, especially in catching up when I omitted a vital move... We tried to look as if we knew what we were doing, and the audience seemed to enjoy it! |

The finished 90th birthday community poster, ready to be printed out as a card (in A4 size!) and sent to Buckingham Palace. |
