A new tradition is born ...

It started as a bright idea by Sue and Mike Drysdale of Kondi cafe, on Henleaze road.

It turned into a Christmas Fayre extraordinaire to rival the best Germany has to offer. Henleaze Fayre was a raging success, with a big wheel, countless crafts and charity stalls, mulled wine, candy-floss and free mince pies -which I am enjoying here, next to the Henleaze Library stall.

It was a real family event, running from 3pm right through the evening till 9pm, and there really was something for everyone.

I hope I am not putting undue pressure on Sue and Mike when I say the fayre had all the hallmarks of a long-standing tradition in the making. A wonderful community event, thank you.
