Lovely People
The sun is shining and the garden at WHC HQ is full of life,
witness the noisy jackdaws on the chimney pots opposite. In short, it is shaping up to be a very
special spring. You, dear reader are
recalling the halcyon days of childhood,
swinging off a rope over a local river and trying to remember this line
from Wind in the Willows -
“There’s
nothing––absolutely nothing––half so much worth doing as messing about in
boats.”
All of which is my roundabout way of saying The Hereford River Carnival will soon
be upon us Saturday May 2nd
and I hope that everybody is planning on joining in, even if like me - embarrassed
cough - you haven’t got round to
building a raft.
The Hereford River Carnival is really a community affair and
I am very pleased to say that the WHC is mucking in by hosting the AFTER-CARNIVAL PARTY at The Left Bank in the evening so that
the revels can continue into the night. Old
friends of the WHC, The Three Deuces
will be coming up from London and plying their time-seasoned R’n’B, or what
head honcho, Charlie, refers to as ‘holiday honky-tonk’. Adding to the fun, will be local folksters Slippery Slope, who many of you will
remember from last year’s festival, and also our favourite seasonal DJ, Jus Jay who also designed the wonderful
poster.
It’s £5 on the door, which opens at 7.30, so cheap as chips
too. Now go tell your friends on FB – the more the merrier.
Hopefully see you on May 2nd and maybe at the
Bevvy Sisters shindig before that (25th April at St. John’s Ambulance).
