Abbotsbury

I have been visiting our children and grandchildren who live in Burgundy, France for the last couple of weeks from where I have been sending the Community News

Isn’t technology amazing!

So apologies to anyone whose event I have missed.

CHESIL Bank Pre School Christmas Fayre will take place on Saturday, December 4

The fun starts in Strangways Hall at 12noon and finishes at 5pm.

Father Christmas arrives at 2.30 pm so come prepared with your wish lists.

There will be refreshments including mulled wine and cheese tasting.

Also among the other delights there will be a raffle, tombola and a cake stall, Christmas decorations and cards, jewellery and books and something quite different, a hair-cutting corner.

THE Friends of St Nicholas Church will be holding their annual Friends evening on Monday, December 6 from 7pm-9pm at Wheelwrights Tearoom thanks to Sue and Nigel Melville

This will be a chance for old Friends and new Friends to have a chat and pay their annual subs over wine and cheese.

So far this year the Friends have raised over £800 through various events for those little extras for the church community.

The Friends subscription remains at £10 for another year.

Anyone wishing to support the group is invited to join them at Wheelwrights where they will be made most welcome.

The St Nicholas Church Patronal service will take place at the church on Sunday, December 5, at 10.30am.
