The Flower Show

Trelawnyd's 36th annual Flower Show is firmly booked for the 15th Aug, and some of the fine tuning for the day was debated this evening by the Flower Show committee at Auntie Gladys' house.
I now have been "elevated" to the position of Chairperson(!!!) and the committee itself now numbers eleven people with a score of "show friends" who will be available to help on the day, so people wise we seem to have bums of seats as it were.
Historically the show has always poured donations and sponsorship towards numerous village causes and has never really publicised the fact, so this year I personally feel it is important to let the village population realise how we support our own community.
If people understand that we have purchased the new tables and curtains for the village hall for example, then perhaps some of the new members of Trelawnyd may feel that the show IS of use to the community and may be compelled to be a part of it..... I do hope so.
As the meeting went on Auntie Gladys pottered around her farmhouse style kitchen organising tea an biscuits. The "ladies" of the committee always receive their tea in china cups and saucers where as the men have china mugs! She didn't quite have time to bake her usual scones for the meeting's interval but I did receive the surreptitious "scones in a bag" when I left her house an hour or so later (a small thank you for the small gift of eggs I drop off to her every other week or so)
