Photos of our 2012 festival!
This year's festival was a truly perfect day, particularly for the kids who ruled the street from morning till dusk including a most spectacular water balloon & splash fest.
We had plenty of stalls: bric-a-brac, books, toys, a barbeque, drinks, and then entertainment in the form of games, a clown, several bands & fair-ground rides.
The entire event concluded with a neighbourly open-air meal - a great opportunity to meet everybody.
All in all, everybody agreed our 2012 festival had been a major success!
