A chance for a bit of nostalgia, courtesy of Phil Moston. A pleasant day in lovely surroundings with a catering van and toilets laid on. Even the vicar turned up. I'm not sure what was happening in the last photo.

The chief inspector from the gambling commission using the latest digital raffle ticket detection system, checks to see how many raffle tickets Phil has purchased.
Cleverly Phil tries out the lost Cheshire tradition of the back wheel and hand brake clog dance to distract him.

Hi Nick, sorry you missed the event, will PM you if we are doing similar things, with regards to "The Drum" it is a late 1930s
54" drum (info via Phil Moston).
