"The Bells! The Bells!"

Haydn is already working on his costume for Hay-on-Fire, at the end of October. He's going to be Quasimodo. He's making a fake hunchback and will be carrying a bell, possibly with a bat dangling from his shoulder, and a hideous mask that he found in Hereford. One thing that's causing him problems is the smock-like shirt (as worn by Charles Laughton in the film). He's been looking at ladies' dresses in charity shops, but so far he's been too embarrassed to try anything on.
Sadly, for the first time ever, Goffee may have to charge admission to the event - he's got to find the cash to put on the spectacle from somewhere, and local sponsorship can only go so far.
