It was a gloriously sunny day for Kibworth’s very first Yard Sale. Charlotte Price had organised the event via social media and had invited Facebook friends and neighbours to run a home ‘car boot’ sale of their unwanted goodies from their front gardens, so no rental costs involved. Charlotte included online a map of the village and a list of streets where participants could be located. Prospective purchasers toured the village on foot, in some cases looking for bargains to buy. A great day was had by all. Another event is planned for the future. Smeeton Westerby and Saddington have asked to be involved next time.

As I write this, plans are now in place for our annual ‘Brass on the Grass' event.

Please feel free to bring your own drinks, light snacks and your own comfy chairs, although chairs are provided.

Last Sunday, 14 May, was an auspicious day when at last, Kibworth Harcourt Post Mill, a unique and outstanding historic mill, was officially reopened during National Mills Weekend by members of the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) plus interested guests.

The Spinners’ inaugural club tournament was held in April. First place was secured by 15 year-old Dillon Kearney. Runner-up Drew Harbidge pushed all the way in a final which was well worth watching.

By the time you read this, all of the Coronation celebrations and excitement will be over with just the end of May Bank Holiday to look forward to. WRONG! There’s still Last Minute Theatre’s QUIZARET! It’s a night of (very mixed) cabaret entertainment interspersed with fun quiz sections. You certainly don’t need to be an Egghead to join in and have a great evening!
