The Parish Picnic 2009

Welcome to the Parish Picnic page. This year (2009) the picnic was held on 3rd August at, what has become our regular venue, Sedgehill Manor.

In spite of an appalling forecast, and gloomy grey clouds all around and across most of the rest of the country, and rain beforehand as well as rain afterwards, we managed to avoid the rain entirely which was an extremely pleasant surprise for all concerned.
