EVENT LISTINGS
For those of us planning our spring and summer diaries, here are some of the dates you might want to make a note of, or completely avoid even if they're not your cup of tea.
There's obviously lots more going on across Somerset too but these are the well-known regulars in our neck of the woods:
😊
Monday 5th May - Kingsbury May Festival @ Kingsbury Episcopi
Sunday 8th June - The Green Scythe Fair @ Thorney
PS - is that how you spell scythe?
Saturday 5th July - Party by the Parrett @ Kingsbury Episcopi
10th - 12th July - PitFest @ Emmen - this is the hardcore punk heavy metal festival held every year in the Netherlands - don't type that one in to your SatNav 😐
PitFest @ Pitney [Somerset] can't find a date online - still looking/waiting.
18th - 20th July - The Steam Fair & Country Show @ Low Ham - if you've never been - it's a great venue, great site up there on the hill and it's not all about steam engines & tractors....there's a lot more going on up there including live music, shows, displays & fun for the kids 👍
Finally
There are unconfirmed reports that Westcountry charity event promoters Gamble & Holland, who can't be named for legal reasons, may be putting together a 30th anniversary 'bike ride' one Saturday this summer.
