It’s Charter Fair time...
Oh it’s so exciting: a whole afternoon of food, frolics and fabulous fun!
This month our Q&A features Bletsoes who have been a cornerstone of the Thrapston community since 1881. Alastair Brown is Head of Auctions and he gives us a very interesting insight into the business (page 6).
If you need to breathe the fresh air of summer and feel some sunshine on your face, then why not get out into your garden? The Barn Garden Centre talk us through an early summer garden – fragrant roses, exquisite peonies, towering lupins and, of course – weeding (page 11).
There’s so much going on in the Thrapston area. We have two full pages of What’s On – a
flower festival, line dancing, WI, wing walking, opera and ladies club (page 10 & 16).
The Charter Fair looks like it’s going to be a fabulous afternoon out. Could you help arrange next year’s event (page 21)?
