Los Pacaminos

What a fantastic evening! We were amazed to be able to welcome Los Pacaminos with Paul Young back to the Village Hall for a third year – and it gets better every time! Huge thanks to Lucy and Andy for starting the party going and to all the Bonfire team who made it all happen. They did ask if we would like them to come back next year….

Today (Friday) Sequence Dance is in the Village Hall at 2pm, and Adult Badminton is in Pretious Sports Hall at 7.30pm.

The next Bonfire event is the Craft Fair in the Village Hall this Saturday 10-2pm. With a fantastic range of excellent crafts, there should be something for everyone – and don’t forget, it’s Mothering Sunday next week! Bacon butties, home-made cake – and the famous Jimbola await.

The Library is open each Saturday and Thursday 2-4pm, and is free to join, just pop in and introduce yourself. There is a wide range of up to date books, and plenty of jigsaws.

On Saturday evening is the last of the winter pop-up pub sessions in the Village Hall – always a good opportunity to mingle and catch up on the latest news.
