Update: 11th July 2009
After a fantastic fund raising campaign, Simon Rutherford officially opened the new Cherington & Stourton Village Playground by dropping his arm to start the run through the tape by the local children.
A great turn out enjoyed the afternoon and whilst the incredible number of local children made the most of the new playground equipment, the parents quietly enjoyed the bar and barbeque kindly set up by Nick and Hillary.
The new slide was a great hit, as was the climbing frame tower, although many of the children decided it was more fun climbing on the tunnel rather than going through it!
The see-saw and toddlers swings were popular with the smaller children and the old faithful roundabout has never had so many children on it in one go before.
The predicted bad weather in the evening meant the fathers and childrens camp-out had to be postponed until the night following the flower show, and the day was slightly marred for Simon after an unfortunate incident with a horse fly, but the children thoroughly enjoyed the whole afternoon and many finished it off with a great game of football.

French night at the Cherington Arms - Dig out those stripy T shirts, the old bicycles and polish up your onions for an entertaining evening amongst good company with excellent food and hospitality. Tickets to be bought in advance only
As you can see there were some traditional French men and some very chic
Parisian ladies, some complete with their little dogs (and I'm not referring
to husbands here). We were also graced by a visit from Marie Antoinette
(complete with Cake for distributions to the peasants) and of course her
husband Louis XV. Some of the pictures reflect the homebound
state of one or two of the attendees. A good time the was had by one and all
and we must of course express our thanks to Hilary and Nick for the
magnificent French menu.
