The morning of Saturday 12th September saw a well-attended market at the village hall. There was an array of small stallholders offering bespoke items for sale. It was great to see so many new, as well as our usual supporters attending the market; thanks to everyone who came along. Our only regret was that we were a victim of our own success – the kitchen ran out of breakfast baps and cake (apologies to anyone who missed out); we will ensure we have adequate supplies for our next market on 12th December.
But enough of what happened last week, we have our Community Social Evening on Monday, and here’s what you’ve got to look forward to the rest of the week:-

Monday 14th September – 2pm until 4pm – Short Mat Bowls – The Short Mat Bowling Club has a roll-up every Monday afternoon from 2:00pm until 4:00pm.

No experience is necessary as training is given to new and inexperienced players. The club holds a range of different size woods to fit all hand sizes. Please bring a pair of slippers or soft soled shoes with you to wear on the bowling carpets. The first three sessions are free, after this, each session is charged at £3.00.

All the exercises can be done on a chair or on a mat – the choice is yours, and they aim to strengthen the core, increase flexibility and improve balance. You can join in as many or as few of the exercises as you feel comfortable with. After our exercise session we have some social time to catch up, relax and unwind with plenty of refreshments!
