St John the Baptist held their annual
Autumn Fair on Saturday 1st November, a little later than they normally
have it. They were rather worried that it may be a bad time as so
many other activities were going on. They need not have worried
the Cookham Dean Village Hall was packed out. So far £2,400 has been
counted, but there is some more to come.

There were a wide variety of different
stalls along with the possibility of a sit down for a cup of coffee and
a piece of cake.

In addition there were stalls selling
jams, chutneys, fudge, cakes, sweets and other goodies. Also books,
tombola, raffles for a Christmas cake and also for hampers, whisky and
wine. Marie Therese Ind had packed up hampers for the main raffle and
had made them look extremely attractive. There was a book stall,
Tradecraft and jewellery, plus beautiful containers of plants for the
winter. It was amazing that everything fitted into the hall along with
the crowds of people.
