Festival gets underway!

I have just popped nto the gallery to have a look at the Kid's Medieval Workshop and it is packed! Loads of kids and parents all busy creating masks and more ready for the parade next Saturday (17th) in the High St.
The wonderful Town Crier was in fine voice down by the Memorial, spreading the news of the festival and the Opening Concert which starts at 12 in St Mary's Church. The Memphis Fliers were about to kick off with their rockabilly music that gets your feet tapping and there were more kids on the bouncy castle and being face painted by members of Christchurch. The Town Centre is buzzing which was fantastic to see!!
