10th June 2012.
Dear All,
How was the Jubilee for you? It was rather cold and damp here and if not low key – moderate key at best. There was a children’s sports day on Saturday, a joint service on Sunday and a tea party on the Green on Tuesday followed by lighting the beacon and singing of “patriotic songs”. Not quite up to London standards but warmer watching on TV than waving at a flotilla of boats for 4 hours!
Damp tea party

Loyal singing!

The Beacon
We managed a swim on Wednesday and our first chapel cricket match between showers in the evening, beating St Neots Methodists at Waresley.
My feet however were so sore afterwards that I missed the Thursday walk – perhaps someone is trying to tell me something? Kate went to the walk beginning at Cavendish and taking in Clare.
Cricket pitch preparation has been a bit fraught with the weather and our heavy roller being broken but the county under 14s played London under 14s here on Wednesday and there is a county under 10s! on the square today.
We plan to go down to Godalming tonight as Mary-Ann has to have a minor op. tomorrow. On Wednesday we are invited to Joy Larkcom’s latest book launch at the Garden Museum, Lambeth and then we are off to the Mendips for a family holiday on Saturday.
Love
Mike & Kate
