THE WURZELS MINDERS
OOO ARR OOO ARR… that be we, that be.
 
 

 
 

With no national rally this bank holiday to go to, I had to find something else to
do, so I got involved in running the village fete again. After six months of fund raising we had enough in the kitty to pay for a big attraction, so we went for an open air concert with The Wurzels. When you book a world class act like this lot they always ask for some "extras" in the contract. The one thing that was proving to be a stumbling block was the "personal security" whilst they were on stage.

Ummm…well the HA did it for the Rolling Stones back in the 70's when they played Hyde Park so why not get the Scrumpies to do it for The Wurzels in Box?

We just set up a compound at the side of the stage and sat around in the sunshine drinking cider, eating homemade cakes and quiches from the WI stall.
 

  

 

When the time came………………we lent them some of our womenfolk!

The Wurzels first got together in the 1960's and still have 3 original members, one having died in a car crash many years ago.

In spite of them being in their 70's they still play at least once a week, every week and when they come off stage, they still want what they always did.

A Beer and a Girl!!


They all signed Joan's tee shirt so we now have something to auction off

All in all it was a great day out and on behalf of Box Revels I'd like to say thanks for helping us out.

As ever the sun was REALLY shining.

Sorry if you couldn't be with us.
