Pumpkin Show 2011
This years Pumpkin Show, held on Saturday 24th September 2011 was not quite as good as other years due to poor weather conditions throughout the summer resulting in fewer large pumpkins.
Many thanks to Mike Reed who turned up with many good sized pumpkins - what's his secret?
Beer Puffins and Primary School put on a magnificent display of decorated pumpkins - well done.
Auctioneer Kim Aplin was at his loquacious peak encouraging all and sundry to part with their money and £200 was raised for the home nurses at Seaton hospital.
Many thanks to all who helped put on this yearly extravaganza.
See the left of this page for a gallery of 2011 pictures courtesy of Jayne Aplin. N.B. they will open in another window.
