The straw Panama hats were in evidence at Poundstock Revel on Whit Saturday. The sun shone across Brenda's Field to allow many people to enjoy the variety of stalls and refreshments. The curate cared for the coconut shy, and the snails raced across their course. There wasn't a pig but you could bowl for the bells. You didn't need a hat to splat the rat nor waterproofs for the fizzy fishing. There was corn bag tossing, two tombola, and both plants and flower arrangements to buy. Children were well catered for with face painting, biscuit decorating and bouncing along in the sack races. The event was opened by the Reverend George Rowe. Scones, cakes and tea ensured a good end to the day. As a result, over £900 was raised for Poundstock Methodist Church and the Gildhouse. Thanks were expressed to everyone who helped both before, on, and after the event and also to all the businesses and individuals who donated prizes that allowed them to make the event so successful.
