Burwash

Fireworks: Wow, what an amazing display for the Burwash Bonfire Society firework and bonfire evening. The fireworks were the best I have seen for some time. And they were let of in time with music, a first for Burwash. Well done to Natalie Crabtree, Pauline Wilson and their wonderful band of helpers. Thanks to everyone who has helped and supported their fund raising through the year, especially the land lady of The Rose & Crown who hosted the quiz evenings. From the pictures on facebook the fancy dress costumes were imaginative and colourful. A fabulous evening for everyone. Brilliant.

BLG: The Burwash Ladies Group will meet in the village hall on Wednesday afternoon from 2.15pm. This group enjoy a diverse section of talks and displays, with a monthly outing too. The group are always pleased to welcome new members. This time it is their AGM, followed by a talk from Mervin Kaye, Auctioneer. with Going, Going, Gone. Do go along and join them, They will also be arranging their Christmas Lunch.

Bowls: The members of the short mat bowls club are enjoying a wide variety of games. Over half of the members had a very enjoyable bowling holiday on the Isle of Wight with some success. Some of the members have played in tournaments, in the Wealden league and the Eastbourne Australian pairs league. They are also playing in their own cup games and several members also have played against other counties in one of the three East Sussex teams. They are playing well in the first division of the Wealden league with a great 6-2 win away to Frant last week. Their next matches are away to Jarvis Brook on Sunday and at home to Broad Oak on Thursday. If you are interested in playing this game why not join us at our regular club roll up on Monday evening from 6.30pm. Call Mary Taylor for more information.
