If you do make the effort to go to the Tonbridge Carnival Procession on Sunday from 1pm who knows you may even be rewarded and catch a glimpse of our very own Dame Kelly Holmes. Here is the double Olympic Gold winning local hero making a sneaky appearance a couple of years ago much to the delight of the thousands of Tonbridge folk lining the road side. Incidentally Kelly has a childrens book out called Katy the Shooting Star about a scruffy cat down on its luck who rises up to become a winner (sound familiar?!) and she may be coming along to the West Kent Book Fair in Tonbridge later this year to launch the second instalment. So put October 25th in your diary if that floats your boat....
