THE sun shone down on another Poughill Revel and Cuckoo Fair this year — an event which was one of the village's busiest to date. Lots of helpers were present, along with many adults and children looking to have some good old-fashioned fun at the fair. The new revel queen Tillie Parker-Crum and her attendants, Honeysuckle Parker-Crum and Isabelle Colwill, arrived at the Revel Field looking beautiful in purple and white sparkling dresses. The queen was crowned this year by Helen Smith, a girl from the village, on a stage decorated in great style by Sue Jenkins from Crazysuze Balloons, which also boasted a wonderful balloon arch. Helen Smith went on to officially open the revel at 2pm. For the full report, and a round-up of the area news and sport, see this week's edition of the Post.
