Village Hall - Bring a Bake or Party Food

Thank you so much to anyone who is planning to bring a dish for the Christening. We're thinking afternoon tea vibes.. sausage rolls, quiche, scones, cake.. whatever your speciality is that is easy to knock up or pick up on route! 

We know many are travelling a long way and we are so grateful for you coming to celebrate with us which is more than enough

We are providing tea, coffee and squash for drinks

It would be really helpful if people could label the food so everyone knows what is what
