Burwash

Bowls: Last week the Burwash short mat bowls club hosted a friendly match against Hawkhurst. We had a really enjoyable evening with some great bowls played. I was good to include our new players in the match and they did themselves proud. Over all Hawkhurst played the better bowls and won the evening, but it was a very enjoyable evening for everyone. On Saturday evening, the Burwash village hall was the venue for the East Sussex B Team end of season dinner. This was a most enjoyable evening with lots of delicious hot food and naughty but nice desserts. I am very grateful to Laura Carver, Nina Davis, Wendy Woolgar, Kellie Eldridge and Lorraine Tasker for all the amazing work they did in the kitchen and serving the food. The amazing aromas emanating form the hall were competing with Julian's fish & chip van. All the diners had a great time and I thank them for making t such a wonderful evening.
