Turning the clock back
MORE than 130 Hailsham residents got in the mood on Saturday night at a VE dance at the town's community hall.
Co-organiser Joy Bowdery, Hailsham Lions social team leader, said three-quarters of the guests wore authentic 1940s outfits.
She said: 'RAF and Army officers were popular but we had spivs and a Miss Marple lookalike as well.
'Fancy dress winners were the land girls.'
And she said Oxfam and the town's charity shops did a roaring trade in accessories.
Guests jitterbugged and jived the night away to music by the Johnny Spice Swing Band.
