THE Greyhound tug-of-war team showed plenty of heave-ho to beat Cholsey Rugby Club in the annual village show in 1982.
Other attractions during the day included model aircraft flying, and a flower show and an appearance by Miss Oxford, Helen Winstanley. Do you recognise them?

Mrs Brooks is pictured, above, in the back row with Matthew. Other runners included, back row, Gemma Harding, left, and Donno Collins, and front row, left to right, Michael Gibbons, Oliver and Piers Simpson and Daniel Jenkins.
Seven members of the parish church set up First Fruits, a workers’ co-operative selling wholefoods, in Honey Lane.
