the innocent village fete day two
Blue skies and sunshine for the second day running. How lucky are we? Someone must have had a word with Michael Fish. Here are some of the many highlights from Sunday...
People enjoying the shade. Thank you trees.
Even more bunting making with the Girl Guides.
People dropping by for a stitch or two in our knitting tent.
Cheerleaders reaching for the skies on the village green.
Dog agility by persuasion on the village green.
Sack races in the sunshine.
A very high standard of alfresco dancing.
And our drinks continued to prove a popular attraction...
Your fete looks like the best thing this summer. I wish you'd come to Glasgow. We have many fine parks - The Botanic Gardens, Kelvingrove Park, Pollock Park, Queens Park...
Maybe next year?

I went to your village fete on Sunday and I must say it was an excellent day, well afternoon more like as I arrived a bit late!
I took along my mum and sister and they both had an excellent time. We all won something from the hoopla stall, a first!
The weather added to the great atmosphere and was boiling! Everyone was really friendly.
I'd never been to Fruitstock, but I want to go back to the Village Fete next year and bring some more friends. I didn't find it too crowded but maybe I was too in awe of everything.
Congratulations and well done!

I know the weather helped but....I spent only £10 all day and we had one of the best Sundays Ive experienced in 7 years in London. Yes it was really busy, (the words victim & success spring to mind), but the atmosphere was fabulous - and for what is still a relatively small company, Innocent your organisational capacity is amazing. Highlights - Pimms on top of the bus, and dancing our flip-flops off to Geno Washington - legend!!

Wonderful day, delicious smoothies, lovely food from your friends, top chunes from the man Geno Washington and generally a wonderful summer's day.
But did you break the bunting record?
