The last weekend in May saw glorious weather welcome our French Twinning friends to Hadleigh. The packed French coach arrived in Hadleigh to a "champagne" reception, courtesy of the Mayor, Mary Munson at the Royal British Legion Social club where hugs & speeches were exchanged. On Saturday they were given a tour of Vanners Silk Factory in Sudbury followed by lunch at the Mill Hotel. In the evening the Old Town Hall looked splendid in red, white & blue for an early Jubilee dinner followed by dancing in the Grand Hall. The Mayor was presented with a gift of a glass lamp which was handmade at the glass factory in Trelon that we visited last year. This lamp is now on display in the window of The Framestore. Sunday saw the customary French/English committee meeting this time in the splendid setting of the Guildhall garden whilst the members took part in a treasure hunt along the High Street. A shared picnic lunch followed in the garden and we were careful not to get sunburnt in the heat. Whilst we ate we were entertained by a group of singers from Ipswich who sang a jolly collection of songs; thanks to Bob Newton for bringing them. Our last meal was at Whatfield Village Hall; a tasty Bangers and Mash and trifle, thanks to Cheryl Chaplin for scrumptious catering on both nights. We then danced the evening away to Lyndy Lou, delighted the French with our eclectic raffle and rolled for a bottle of whisky. They left on Monday morning, you may have seen the emotional scenes at Magdalan Road car park and wondered what the commotion was! If you would like to join the Twinning activities we always welcome new members. The guests are accommodated in our homes which is an interesting linguistic and cultural experience. Throughout the year we hold various fun fundraising events so we can pay for this biennial weekend. Next year we go to France in May or June to be entertained by our French friends. Kathleen Freeth
