LENT LUNCHES: Lent lunches continue today, Friday March 13 at 2 Forge Cottages , The Green from 12noon to 1.30pm and will continue for the nest two Fridays. It does seem perfect weather at the moment to be enjoying a bowl of home made soup and crusty bread whilst meeting and chatting to friends old and new. Last weeks lunch was well attended and is in support of these two good causes, Farm Africa and the local Seaview Project in St Leonards. Everyone is welcome to attend and Margaret looks forward to welcoming you.
