Trundling on!
Sunday 13 September
saw the Geddington Volunteer Fire Brigade’s annual
TRUNDLE !
taking place in the Recreation Field.
True to the posters and the advertising, there was food, music and games.

There were games and the rules for the first game meant each member of the team had to carry the plastic container or beer barrel, depending on age, down to the cone and back, then when all members had managed this, they had to pick up the rope and pull the Queen Eleanor several yards. The team with the shortest time was the winner.
