Mystery Raffle at Downham

My career as a'narrator' is blossoming.  Last evening it was at a sell-out concert in the lovely village of Downham, Lancashire where the fabulous Karin Grandal Park was performing her S&C-based songs 'Lives on the Line'.



It was part of a weekend-long Folk Festival at Downham's amazing village hall, surely the biggest village hall anywhere.

First item on the programme was a one-prize mystery raffle.  Tickets purchase had been made a requirement of admission.

The prize?

A large pack of toilet rolls*.  The evening didn't look back.








* That is a reference which may not stand the test of time.  It refers to the current worldwide coronavirus emergency where some people have been panic buying loo rolls.  As they say in these parts, 'there's nowt so queer as folk'.
