Sharks Cricket: I have been asked to add to my last input on this, that the coach will also pick up from Hurst Green as well as Burwash through to Heathfield. I am thinking that they would also pick up in Etchingham on the way through. . The coach will take you to each of the home games of the Sussex Sharks. Match dates are Sunday 9 July at Arundel, then July 12, 23 & 28, August 2,10, &18 all at Hove. Tickets/coach would probably not be more than £40 for adults £30 for under 19’s. To find out more email Tesky & Barbara on [email protected] or call them on 01580 860625.

Holiday on Ice: I am thinking of trying to get a coach up for the Holiday on ice show in January, for Sunday 14th, at 4pm. I will organise the tickets but would be grateful for some feedback to find out if this would be a viable proposition. We would probably have to pay £33 to £35 depending on coach hire. Children around £22. If you are interested, please call me on 01435 882107 or email [email protected] Tickets would need to be paid for by the end of November. Further details when I have more info and if it is viable.

Bingo: A date for your diaries. We are going to organise another prize bingo afternoon in the Burwash Village hall on Sunday 16 July in aid of Guide Dogs for the Blind. It will be from 2.30pm with doors opening at 2pm. If you would care to donate a prize we would be very grateful. please contact me on the methods above.
