Scarecrows

I do like Caistor.  I've said it before and I'll say it again, I do like Caistor.  It's a small town with a real sense of community.

Next weekend is the street party and the 10k run, but this weekend is the scarecrow trail and open gardens.

I can't remember when scarecrow festivals first became popular in these parts but it can't be more than about ten years ago and they can be great fun.  Here are just two of this year's offerings.

I'm wondering if they will reappear next weekend for the street party's theme is "Caistor goes Mediaeval".
