Today was Walking Day in our village. Representatives from all the local churches paraded accompanied by three bands. We were able to ring the bells for the first time and be part of this traditional community event. Afterwards people commented how good it was to hear the bells ring out on this occasion.

It was such a lovely sunny afternoon that the crowd remained in the centre of the village.

My daughter, who was visiting from Yorkshire, came up into the tower to listen to us ringing.

Afterwards we headed to a local tapas restaurant for an early supper.
