The Village Hall was packed this evening, when the old ladies of Trelawnyd held their usual Christmas Fayre. For a pound you got a cuppa and piece of cake (my chocolate sponge disappeared quick sticks) and then had a chance to spend a ton of loose change on various brick-a-brack stalls a beetle drive and raffle.
All the usual suspects were there....Old Mrs Jones from the Pen-y-cefn Isa, Auntie Glad,Pippa,Sylvia, Derek and Heulwyn from the Flower Show committee,Neighbour Trevor,Geoff and Chris (below) and Carole from down the lane with Gwyneth in tow who was sporting a very glam white fur hat.
The whole thing is all rather old fashionably sweet. ....The village school Children massacred a set of Christmas songs, the vicar made a short slightly embarrassed speech of thanks and I bought a jar of pickled onions for 50p.

The excitement is palpableIs it me or does the guy on the right look like Paul O'Grady?

I'm still trying to get my tongue around the Welsh language - what's the correct pronounciation of "Pen-y-cefn"? Nx
