Edie

We are thrilled to have this film’s producer, Mark Stothert, join us for this special screening of the new film, “Edie” .  He will introduce the film and then take questions at the end.

83 year old Edie believes that it is never too late – packing an old camping bag, leaving her life behind and embarking on an adventure she never got to have – climbing the imposing Mount Suilven in Scotland.

This touching film stars the indomitable Sheila Hancock, with Kevin Guthrie.

 

Doors open at 7.00pm                   Introduction by Mark Stothert    

Film starts at 7.45pm              Post-film Q&A with Mark Stothert

Our film is: “FINDING YOUR FEET”

Comedy starring Imelda Staunton, Celia Imrie, Timothy Spall, Joanna Lumley, Josie Lawrence

When Lady Sandra Abbott discovers that her husband of 40 years is having an affair with her best friend, she seeks refuge in London with her estranged, older sister Bif.

But different is just what Sandra needs at the moment, and she reluctantly lets Bif drag her along to a community dance class, where she starts finding her feet…

Village Hall Dates for your Diaries in July and August

Sarah Matthews Leave a comment

July-Aug 2018It’s high summer and halfway through the year already!

But the Village Hall is still busy:
Apart from the regular monthly Film Nights and Afternoon Teas,
the *VILLAGE LUNCH* Ladies invite you to ‘Bring a Friend for Free’ to their delicious Lunch on 9th July – surely an invitation not to be declined!

The *VILLAGE HALL* AGM on 10th July is a Public Meeting, so do come along to support all those on the Management Committee who work so hard to keep our Village Hall alive and buzzing!
On 11th July there is a *PARISH COUNCIL* Meeting, which is open to the public.  Both organisations value YOUR input.

And before we know it, it will be August, so we hope everyone is busy in their gardens, potting sheds and kitchens getting ready to exhibit at our 35th Annual *HORTICULTURAL SHOW* on Saturday 18th August.  And there are fun classes for children to enter, too.  (Schedules available from the Village Shop.)

Everything but the kitchen sink!
