FATHER'S Day was celebrated by more than 300 people with a picnic and family fun day at the Gardens of Easton Lodge on Sunday.

In the beautiful weather, fathers were encouraged to bring a picnic to enjoy, while the more energetic members of their families made the most of a host of entertainments that had been laid on.

Children's entertainer Barry Brainstorm performed a magic show before getting dads to join in with a singing and dancing part of his act.

Bouncy castles were in use throughout the afternoon and there was a mad dash as children raced to take part in a treasure hunt.
