Lilley Flower Festival – 2013

This is St. Peter’s Church, Lilley last Saturday when I visited their glorious Flower Festival. You can read more about Lilley and its church here.

The graveyard is delightful, as is the church and I love to visit every year if I can. It is not my local church.

This year’s Flower Festival theme was ‘  On the Air’   and the festival ran for three days over the recent Bank Holiday weekend.  For once the weather was kind, which made the whole thing more enjoyable and hopefully helped to raise the funds needed to keep this beautiful church in a healthy condition.

Here are some of the exhibits:

‘Radio Times’ by Monica Thomas

BBC World Services by Kim Major:

‘Gardener’s Question Time’ by Betty Sharp:

‘The Chris Evan’s Show’ by Susan Constable:

‘Listen with Mother’ by Maureen Bland:

‘Sunday Half Hour’ by Pat Sayer & Margaret Dickenson:

I’ll show you some more of these wonderful flower arrangements next time,

and before I go – a Very Happy Birthday to my son David, who is 33 year’s old today and soon to be a dad for the first time!
