Carnival 2015
This year we had a stand at the carnival and it was a great success with our combined selling of delicious cakes and telling people about the Twinning Association. We hope to get a few new members as a result.
We also took part in the parade; on food this time. maybe next year someone can loan us a Citroen 2CV?
Visit to Bohars
Our younger twinners and their leaders will be off to Bohars on the 20th of August for a week of activities. Bon Voyage!

Informal Meeting – 28th June
We will be having a short informal meeting on 28th June, to discuss the young persons’ visit to Bohars in August 2015.
If you’ve not been to a meeting before then phone David Dunning beforehand for details (see the Contact Us page).
Visit to Stretton Mill
We took our French guests to Stretton Water Mill. West Cheshire Museums were able to provide a French-speaking guide.
The group learned (mostly in French) about how flour was milled in past centuries. One of our visitors, Pierre, was particularly interested as he is a retired miller himself, albeit in a more modern flour mill in Brittany.
Had it been a sunny day we could have sat on the benches by the lake afterwards – but the weather wasn’t so good and we were obliged to retire to the Cock O’Barton for drinks!
Visit from Bohars
Last weekend we hosted a group of visitors from Bohars, and had fun showing them some of the local sights. More of that in a later post, but for the moment here’s a photo from our celebration dinner at Willington Hall.
