The annual Musical Supper will be held in the Festival Marquee on the Parish Field next to the church, by kind permission of Edington Parish Council, at 6.30 for 7pm.  A wonderfully light-hearted occasion when the choristers sing for their supper to raise funds for Parish facilities that are much relied upon by both village and festival.  Close harmony and humour are topped off by a good buffet and famous home-made puddings.  Tickets are £25, bookable after June 1 from Hugh Hancock at pcc-t@hancock-office.org or write to him at Dunge Farm, West Ashton, BA14 6AX. (01225 754626). You can pay by BACS or send a cheque payable to Edington Priory Church Music Evening.  Please let Hugh know if you would like to sit with friends, mention any dietary requirements, and if you need a disabled parking space.
