Chicheley’s almost annual French Evening was held a little earlier than Quatorze Juillet, but that did not stop us enjoying a wide range of French food, wine and music.

Many thanks to Pierre and Christine Girrard for organising and hosting a great event.

The weather was unfortunately rather cold, but the warm fellowship and joie de vivre more than compensated.

£380 was raised towards the upkeep of St Lawrence Church.
