This evening the Harvest Supper was held in the Parish Hall. The assembled company were served a fantastic meal of cold meats, ham and turkey, salads, green and potato, followed by apple pie and cheese and biscuits. A magnificent spread!
During the meal each table attempted the picture Quiz, and following a cup of coffee, we were entertained with a mixture of singing and readings for Harvest. Lesley told us about the history of harvest suppers, ably assisted by Michael and Gloria who demonstrated the traditional drinking game 'Turn the cup over' more difficult than it seems!! Mike Allissone read a fantastic poem bemoaning the changes in our church services, and Janet read 'the Church Mouse' by John Betjemen. Between these items the singers, Elizabeth, Janet, Val, Gloria, Lesley and Hilary accompanied by Beryl on the piano, sang a mixture of folk songs and 2 Flanders and Swan pieces, 'The Gasman Cometh' and 'The Hippopotamus Song' The audience joined in with the choruses. The last two items were 'The Last Rose of Summer' and 'Crossing the Barr'. In the latter piece, Hilary also accompanied the singers on the flute.
A very enjoyable evening, many thanks to all who worked so hard to make it such a success!
