“VILLAGE HAPPENINGS”

FOLK NIGHT – WEDNESDAY 2nd MAY

Last month we enjoyed a record attendance (well over 50 people including 17 musicians!).  Every player had the chance to play two or three numbers and Home Brew finished the evening with a couple of rousing tunes.  Alan and Linda Heath did sterling work on the bar and even brought two of their grandchildren who kept people entertained with card tricks and helped out with the raffle and collecting glasses. 

Now we look forward to welcoming you all to the Folk Night for May.  Doors open at Moggerhanger Village Hall as usual at 7 pm and music will start about 8 pm. You have the chance to come early, get yourself a drink and chat to friends.   So please come along—all are welcome to sing, play, listen—or all three.  Entrance is free and there will be a raffle. 

Brian has spent the last month on another long-distance trip—this time to South America but we hope he will be recovered enough to come to take more pictures and play for us at the May session.

Pictures from recent Folk Nights can be found on the Events pages of this website.

MUMS AND DADS COFFEE BREAK – Every Wednesday except school holidays (9.00-10.00 and later in the church). We look forward to seeing you there. Bring your little ones with you, toys are available – the group is open also to mums and dads who haven’t yet got any children at school. 18th April to 18th July – NO meeting on 30th May (half-term break)

KNIT AND NATTER – The group meets on the 4th Tuesday each month; next meeting will be on 24th April in the church. If you would like information on current projects, please call Jane on 641501.

GARDENING CLUB – Next meeting TBA. All are welcome.
Last month Lydia Wright of Home Farm spoke about Aquaponics. The talk included the proposed development of a teaching centre for missionaries who will be visiting impoverished areas of the world and cover the types of plants and fishes involved and how the techniques can be used in very differing situations.

WALKING GROUP – This new group has proved to be very successful and caters for most abilities from brisk walking to a leisurely stroll. Next walk is on Thursday 26th April. Please meet at the church for start at 10:00 am.

COUNCILLOR SURGERIES IN MOGGERHANGER

Next surgery on the 12th May 10-00 to 11-00 am.

Frank Firth, our elected councillor holds regular surgeries in the playing field Pavilion for parishioners to come and chat, ask questions or just pass on their village concerns.  These are held on the second Saturday each month.  Just turn up at the door for a chat.  If you intend to go but have limited time or would like to meet outside the published time perhaps you could inform me by email or phone message so that I can help Frank fix an alternative time.
