How wonderful to win a prize, well done. Your neighbour makes a fine looking roast potato. 👍👏👏
Brilliant! These fairs are a celebration of the harvest. Unfortunately many had to be cancelled this year. Its not the prize money which is important, its the fun of showing off our produce. I would think your special potato made enough tasty chips for the whole family.
This was the 1st time we'd had a summer fair. We are keeping a selection of veg for Harvest Festival when produce is displayed in the Church, flower arrangements in all the windows and then the produce is donated to the needy, so all worthwhile. 😁👍
Such a lot of good things come out of these festivals. I love seeing these displays in the churches. Harvest Time is such a symbolic time which has been celebrated through the ages.
Wow diana, that's brilliant, well done and very kind of you to give it to someone - I must say that those roasties are done just the way I like them, yum. xx
Me too😜
Think it would feed me for a month!!
Well done you! What a whopper! I was going to enter some of the classes in our local show this year, but sadly, like many others, it was cancelled. Such a shame as it's the onetime of year that all the village come together. Never mind, next year …..xx
How do you plan to spend the £0.5?
You could put the money towards a frame for the certificate?
Wow that’s so good. What fun!
What was the weight of the potato please?
Well done! I hope you are not going to let the winnings change your life!😃
It is Ginormous! I have never seen a spud that big before! Wow! Thanks for sharing!
Well done!! I've never seen one so big!! 💜♥️
Well done you,what a whopper, wouldn't mind some of the roasties either 😃
very well done to you it looks great - I'd get about 10 meals out of it lol I wouldve thought youd ve won £50 not 50p
Yes, they only charged 25p to submit each entry! .Think they should have charged £1 as it was for the church. Just a fun day and a new idea. Think Mr Big would have lasted us for ages. We have another one slightly smaller. I only cook potatoes on a Sunday! 😂
