Ably supported by our Park Ranger, Garry Meyer, and two of his colleagues, Friends of Dyke Road Park put on a delightfully friendly and relaxed event on the field at the park on Bank Holiday Monday. There was delicious local lamb and other food on the barbecue, well-stocked cake, plant, bric-a-brac and book stalls, and an indefatigable face painter who kept going without a break from beginning to end. What more could you want?
Well, the live lambs, brought by Garry from the flock he helps to manage on the outskirts of Brighton http://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/index.cfm?request=c1210514 proved the star draw, with opportunities for children to stroke them, and find out all about their bodily functions… A definite hit!
Many thanks to all those who made it possible.
