Do local village galas take place nowadays.?
Bryn Pydew used to have a brilliant one.
The village green was decorated with streamers and the procession of queens and their courtiers would assemble there.and progress down to the playing field and Village Hall .The queen in a beautiful dress, her maids of honour the prince (or was it the King) and little page boys and girls scattering rose petals. At the field they progressed to the stage for the crowning ceremony followed by party pieces, verses and songs.
Lots more going on in the field, dog show games, races, a merry go round and swings, and best of all first class refreshments.
Any more memories of this?
