After the stocks, I moved on to the coconut shy and despite having my eyes closed in the picture actually managed to hit one!! Since I don’t have a clue what to do with a coconut I let them keep it! Then I moved to the penalty shoot out – 3 shots for 50p – and this time, having scored a goal, I kept my prize of a packet of Haribo sweets. Back inside I bought two hardback books for 50p – one on Disraeli and one on the Royal Family written by Jeremy Paxman. It was a great little fun day and I hope the weather held off for the rest of the afternoon.
UPDATE: I have been contacted by Jamie’s mum and I can publish his picture so here is one of the brave little lad preparing to take a sponge in the face for a good cause. Well done Jamie!

The boy in the stocks with you was my 9 year old son Jamie Andrews (yes he is crazy most of the time) and had a great time at the fete as did most people from the feedback I gained. Thanks again for your support – the weather stayed fine all afternoon although I don't think everyone stayed dry!. Lesley Andrews (Care Co-ordinator Abbeyfield St Martins)
