Some sideshow!

5/6/2022

0 Comments

 
Paul Getty (yes that Paul!) owns the Wormsley Estate, 2,500 acres near Stokenchurch - well not quite true as it's now owned by his son. HWCC were asked to run a croquet event within a huge walled garden there on Tuesday as a sideshow to the main attraction - a charity event with a talk by an Olympic Equestrian. I know it has no connection with croquet but any excuse to visit Wormsley!

As luck would have it, the croquet lawns were bang next to the bar....and yes we had a jolly fun time with most of the 200 guests. Helping out were Alan Clark, Nigel Clogg and Mark Higgins. Despite the main theme for the evening being Equestrian, many people skipped that bit and preferred to play croquet - I think that is a good measure of success!
