Badgers Drift, sorry, The-Lee church fêteBy Catherine Larmour
So, the fête is nearly upon us again, and with June come inevitable happy thoughts of idyllic afternoons wandering, ice-cream (or Pimm’s) in hand, from stall to stall soaking up the atmosphere. It’s all too obvious why The-Lee Green was chosen as one of the sets for Badgers Drift in Midsomer Murders. The Midsomer Murders Society will be on hand to talk telly with any fans of the show.
But even if you only ever watch the news and generally eschew murder mysteries, this year’s fête has delights aplenty for you. As if tombola, maypole-dancing, a bouncy castle, plants, books, bric-a-brac and teas weren’t enough, there are pony rides, cakes, a coconut shy and so much more. Enjoy yourself in a frightfully English way… and raise vital funds for St John the Baptist Church at the same time.
