IT WAS wonderful to be able to arrange the Easter Bonnet Parade this year and I would like to thank all the children and adults that attended for making such a fantastic effort.

There truly were some outstanding bonnets on show.

We even wondered how some managed to keep them on their heads.

Arranging events such as this is what we, the traders, strive to achieve.

It is all about bringing the community together and having fun.

We have more events in the pipeline which will be just as much fun as the Easter Parade.

So watch this space.
