MUSIC: Tonight, Friday, is music night at the Pavilion in Burwash Common from 8pm. This Open Mic night is for groups and solo artists. New musicians and singers too.

There is parking in the Pavilions own car par park. All are welcome to go along whether as a performer or spectator.

BOWLS: The Burwash Short Mat Bowls Club is three weeks into the the second half of the season and have got of to a really good start. Their first match was at home to Plumpton which they won 4-0. They next played at home to Chiddingly and again won 4-0. They then went away to Pevensey and came home with a 2-2 draw, a good result from a difficult venue. Well done to all those who played. Meanwhile our Monday evening roll up nights continue to be good fun and a great social gathering, with some competitive bowls played along the way. Fancy giving it a go? Then why not come along one Monday evening, from 6.30pm at the village hall.
