******It is with regret that at this late stage this event has been cancelled due to the forecast of persistent rain and wind tomorrow. We do apologise to all who made plans to attend, it wasn’t an easy decision. It is possible to scythe in the rain but playing and picnicking wouldn’t be safe ******

Play in The Hay day, this coming Saturday, at the Moat Garden in Castle Cary (behind the George Inn) from 11am. Free family event with children’s activities, music and scything talk and demonstration. Please bring a picnic or grab something in town.
