Cyril Mistletoe. Night watch /Bellman to the gentry.
As well as being a purveyor of traditional festive music and hearty greetings for
Christmas, Cyril is also available for other occasions throughout the year.
Although not a stilt walking character, Cyril is well elevated upon his ladder which, can on request, bare the name of the County, City, Town or Village in which he is summoned to be about his business.
Not only will he ‘call the hours’ but can be prevailed upon to entertain with music, magic, juggling
and a story or two.

Berti

Dapper Character. Frequents Henley, Wimbledon and Ascot. In fact anywhere attractive young ladies or older ones who have 'means' can be found.

Scarecrow

Great for children. His days in the field can be quite lonely so when given the chance he will babble on for hours about country matters and why he is looking after Mrs Wren's nest.
