The church is still the centre of village life. Especially in Toorington. People are christened there, people get married there, and everyone's first school is St. Paul's primary school. The Church is not only everyone's life, it is also everyone's death. Everyone must have a funeral, too. But, there is one occasion in Toorington that is special. The Vicar's Garden Party.
The Vicar's Garden Party is a must for all the ladies of Toorington. The Vicar's Garden Party is not only Cucumber sandwiches, buttered scones with jam and whipped cream, and a nice cup of tea, it is more! The Vicar's Garden Party is, in reality, the Vicar's annual gossip party.
Who's saying this, who's saying that, and all the news that shouldn't be news. Women love gossip. However, women don't only love gossip, they also love hats. A new dress and a new hat every year is a must. Women are very creative.
The Vicar's Garden Party is a meeting for women. Men never have time. They must work. Of course, women don't only meet once a year at the vicar's, there are many women's societies in Toorington, too. Next time, we will be finding out about other activities for women in Toorington. You will be surprised. There is much to do in Toorington!
See you then.
