Village Hall Events

Following feedback we have made a small change to the very successful Cocktail evening to celebrate the Christmas season, consisting of a variety of Canapés which can now be washed down with some Bubbly, Bubbly Cocktails or a glass of Beer on Friday 7 December. The Hall will be specially decorated to reflect the season and appropriate mood music will be playing softly in the background for this special Posh Frocks & Black Tie (or suits) evening. The price will be £12.50 per head and includes a selection of delicious canapés and 2 drinks. Additional drinks will be available and the evening will run from 8.00pm to 10.30pm (or later!). This is a great way to start the Christmas season and meet up and socialise with your friends.

Tickets, which should be ordered in advance, from Tricia Harbour on 680676.

Christmas Lunch – Monday, 10 December

Our traditional 3 course Christmas Lunch with wine for people 65 & over (and their partners, of any age) in the Village will be held at the Village Hall, starting at 12.30pm on Monday 10 December. In addition to the meal and drinks, we have Carols from the local school children. We are sending out invitations but if you know of anyone who is entitled to attend but has not received an invitation, please let Pat Crowther on 680705 know. Transport to and from the Village Hall will be available if needed.

Burns Night Celebration – Saturday, 26 January, 2013

Following the successes of previous years we are staging another Burns Night celebration on Saturday, 26 January, 2013. The evening will be a traditional event with Haggis (Vegetarian alternative available), Tatties and Neeps and a wee dram to keep out the cold. Our talented Scots from the Village will be on hand to recall and toast the life of Rabbie Burns, ‘address’ the Haggis and entertain us.

The evening will start at 7.00pm for a 7.30pm Dinner

Tickets, which cost £12.50 per person, need to be ordered and paid for in advance as this is always a sell-out. They are available from Tricia Harbour on 680676.

Planning Ahead

We plan to hold events in the Spring, 2013 and we have some ideas but we are entirely open to any thoughts or ideas that you may have for these months. If there is something that you would like to see featured call Derek Harbour on 680676 and we’ll try to incorporate it in the programme.
