It was Lulu’s 75th Birthday, we all appreciate what she does for our parish community, clearing, tidying, teas/coffees and keeping our garden pots around the church & hall beautiful.  We presented her with a beautiful plant, a special “star studded” bag full of goodies including a voucher for Waitrose and a special birthday cake with sparklers.  She was so amazed, she was speechless.  Emily paid a fleeting visit from France, so we had a large Christmas Cake too! (one of the things she misses most).  She has organised a student visit from her school in France and St Richards College.
