Pancakes away!!

Saturday saw the traditional pancake races organised by the Town Council up by the parish church. Such a fun occasion with the innovation this year of a team relay race for various groups. Buckingham Blue (local Conservative Association) won the relay. Lots of camaraderie and hearty laughs all round - and especially lovely to see lots of children enjoying the occasion too.

Thanks to Cllr Anthony Ralph for all the pics below.

The 'adult' race!

The winning relay team - Buckingham Blue.

Our tradtiional opening of course - from the Town Crier (who is about to run the London Marathon in aid of the Old Gaol and the Mayor's Charities - look out for the sponsorship forms!)

Cllr Angela Macpherson, leader of AVDC, as you have never seen her before...!

The team from the Library made a sterling effort - I suggested they should have had books in their frying pans not pancakes.

The police were there in numbers!

A panorama of joy!
