Village Hall Events

We are continuing the popular Friday night theme with a simple meal and a chance to socialise with friends. This month it will be Sausage & Mash plus a pudding, all for £7.50 per head.

Food will be available from 8.00 p.m. until 9.30 p.m. Tickets are available from Tricia Harbour on 680676.

Friday 1st April - A Nautical Night (with Fish & Chips)

Oxhill may be as far away from the sea as you can get but don’t let that stop you joining us for a night of nautiness. We have a talk and presentation by Belinda Marklew on `Sailing the Southern Ocean – been there & done that’, with, appropriately, a freshly cooked fish and chip supper.

Belinda took part in the BT Global Challenge Round the World Yacht Race in 2001 on board the yacht Norwich Union. She completed the arduous Southern Ocean crossing from Sydney to Cape Town in six weeks. Her yacht finished the leg in second place. “Never again” is what many sailors say of the Southern Ocean!

There will be slides, video and audio from the world’s toughest yacht race.

More details on cost, time and tickets in the next edition of the Oxhill News.
