Now, here's an idea for Galleywood residents. What if we all got together for a carnival in late September this year? No motorised floats, but lots of dressing up. Start a procession at the schools and continue on to the library, the Keene Hall, and the church; finish at the Heritage Centre. Each establishment runs an event in aid of its own funds, with some joint events like an inter-pub tug of war in aid of a suitable local charity (Helen Rollason or whatever).
Would you be up for it? Would you like to be on a team organising it?
