As the snowdrops fade, the daffodils take over. At St Mary’s Church in Pyrton they are a sight to be seen. The birds timed their morning song with our visit too.
Daffodil teas available on Sunday 15th and 22nd March from 2pm until 4:30pm.

What can you not LOVE about our community ❤️
The most wonderful evening here in the heart of Watlington — the perfect moment to pause, look around, and realise just how special our community truly is.
Our very own SmurFit community spread throughout the choir, the band, the volunteers and the crowds — everywhere you looked.
Faces beaming with happiness, kindness and love.
It really is beginning to look a lot like Christmas ✨🎄
Thank you @fra_fee@thisainttherapy@thetipisessions for finding our community and bringing Christmas joy @friendsofstleonards@watlington.community.choir 🎄
