Whitchurch Carnival and Procession
July 5th, 2008 · No Comments
This town of ours keeps on wow-ing us. Today was the first carnival and procession in the town since 1996 - and you could tell the event has been sorrily missed. The king, queen, prince and princesses were all in attendance, too!
The creativity and fun shown was second to none. Heck, it [...]

The power was supplied by the turbo-charged (it seemed) power lawn mower owned by the Millennium Green Trust. The picnic was supplied by Katya.

After a bit of bouncing (and granted, a short snooze after we calmed them down); we decided it was time to get up and open the blinds.
Oh my [...]

We descended upon the Whitchurch Millennium Meadow for the event. There’s even more photos in our gallery.
There were lots of [...]

The plans for the redevelopment of the site that used to have the “temporary” (from the 1970s!) library show a really ugly set of buildings.
I added my comments to the plans at the Basingstoke & Dean Borough Council (B&DBC) website. It showed the status as still being in “consultation” even though the notices [...]
