THERE were musicians, puppets and even alpacas at the return of the Blossoms and Bygones Festival in Haddenham at the weekend.
The annual festival, which raises funds for the Arkenstall Centre Charity, took place at various sites across the village with more than 700 hundred people turning out to enjoy a range of activities on offer.
As well as new additions to the festival like open gardens and historical re-enactments, there were also the more traditional events like tractor ride and classic vehicle shows for people to enjoy.
Cllr Gareth Wilson, who sits on the organising committee, said: "It was a chance for the whole village to come together and I don't think it could have gone any better, especially as we had such nice weather."
In total organisers made more than �2500 from the event which will go towards the upkeep of the Arkenstall Centre.
