Burwash

Apologies: Once again I have to give my apologies for missing copy for the last two weeks. It has been quite a roller coaster of year so far, with my shoulder and arm, my dad passing and then an eye operation, not just for me but my hubby too. The up side was a lovely if somewhat shorter visit than normal from my lovely Canadian cousin and one of her sisters. And by the time you read this I will be returning from a much needed break. So I am really sorry if I have missed an event that you would have shared. I hope it didn't spoil things for you and you had a good result.

Seagulls Over Burwash: The AGM of Seagulls over Burwash is being held on Tuesday evening at The Bear from 7pm. All members are invited and should book their place for catering purposes.

It promises to be an interesting evening.

Table top sale: Last Saturday the Burwash village hall committee hosted a very enjoyable table top sale, kindly held in the beautiful gardens of Lynda and Richard Maude-Roxby. At this event the hall held their annual raffle too which saw prizes of £100, £50, £30 being won. The event was well supported and after expenses it is hoped to have raised about £700 for the hall maintenance funds. Thank you to everyone who supported.
