We had our annual Village Day on Sunday and, given the rain on Monday, we left the dismantling and packing away of all the marquees till yesterday afternoon.
The climax of every Village Day is the Tug of War, in which different streets, roads and lanes compete against each other, in a men's event and a women's event. We will probably come under fire for not having a trans event, but seriously, merely putting on a wig and smearing yourself in lipstick to join the women's team is cheating.
I have a suggestion to improve the commitment and effort of the participants, which I intend to put to the Village Hall Committee - the trophy should be the gilded skulls of the losing team.
