On Sunday November 27th Hewlett Court held it’s Annual Christmas Fair, and what an amazing event it was! There was an almost unending queue of visitors waiting to pay their entry fee and receive a ticket that could be exchanged for a cup of mulled wine and a mince pie. Hot food was also available with traditional meat and potato pie or chilli, while the massive assortment of home made cakes was very tempting.
There was every kind of stall you can imagine, not only selling craft and fancy goods but also bottle tom-bola and gift tom-bola. The younger visitors could have their face painted or, of course, visit Santa and be given a nice present.
Refreshments included Mulled Wine and a Mince Pie
Those cakes were so tempting – how did Susan resist?
To add to the Christmas atmosphere Irlam Male Voice Choir sang carols.
And the kids visited Santa
