Sleights showstopper
THE sun shone as a large crowd headed for the 129th Sleights Village Show.
Entries were up on last year with most sections being well supported.
There was a magnificent display of home baking in the produce section and nearly 200 entries in the children's sections.
A display of birds of prey and reptiles, classic cars, several craft stalls and entertainment throughout the afternoon by Simply Brass Band created a traditional village show enjoyed by all the visitors.
The committee would like to thank competitors, visitors and helpers.
