Ascot comes to town!

Today there was a very festive feel to the town with ladies dressed to the nines and flaunting the most wonderful millinery creations  (- hats to you and me!). And all in aid of charity.

The Ladies section of Stone British Legion put on a town centre event to coincide with Ladies Day at Ascot. So there was a window dressing competition, a best hat competition, a tombola and, tonight, I understand a Duck Race was to be held at the Star.

And under the marquee Tony Panter had rigged up a very large TV set so that ‘the punters’ could watch the race itself. A great idea and one, I’m sure, that will be repeated.
