Pig Race report...
Submitted by Grapevine on Mon, 03/11/2008 - 14:21.Many thanks to everyone who supported the Grand Pig Race in September. Over 80 people attended, many of them from within the Parish. There were also many people who couldn’t attend, but sent donations anyway. It was a hilarious evening – it’s amazing how much people will bet, and how loud they will cheer, for battery operated pigs!
The Blue Cross were delighted with the £1,850 we raised. Wendy Pinker, who also brought her beautiful hand made Nepali jewellery and bags in aid of her clinic in Nepal was equally pleased with her sales level.
