HASTINGS WELSH SOCIETY NEWS

HASTINGS WELSH SOCIETY NEWS

Our Noswaith Nadolig in December was well-attended and full of Christmas Fun. Thank you Rhiannon & David for going to so much trouble to give us all such a lovely time and to all who contributed.


CRUMPETS AND SMUGGLERS!


You may have noticed that we’ve had a little bit of snow, but this event sadly had to be postponed – not due to the white stuff from the heavens - but due to our entertainer’s illness! Apologies to anyone who was inconvenienced by the last minute change of plans.



We have moved this event to Sunday 7th February 2010, 3 – 6 pm at The Red Lion, Brede TN31 6EJ. We are being entertained by Geoff Hutchinson (as ye old smuggler!) – fingers crossed that he will be recovered in time! We will have tea and toasted teacakes or crumpets around an open fire. You must book with Rhiannon  no later than 27th January and tell her whether you want a teacake or a crumpet. Geoff Hutchinson is a professional historian and actor – it should be great fun! It’s just £3 and please do bring a raffle prize.



ST DAVID’S DAY WITH THE MAYOR

We are all invited to coffee and Welsh cakes with the Mayor of Hastings, to be served in the Town Hall, Hastings on Monday 1st March 2010 from 10.30am. Members of the local Welsh Society (yes you!) will help to lead the singing!



ST DAVID'S DAY LUNCH - MONDAY 1 MARCH



Celebrate ‘Dewi Sant’ in style, in the company of your friends! Our annual St David's Day lunch will be on Monday 1 March at 12.30 for 1.00pm at The Brickwall Hotel, Sedlescombe. Please send Marjorie your cheque, made out to Hastings Welsh Society for £21.00 (the same as last year and it includes a gratuity!), by Sunday 7 February to book your seat for a 3 course meal! Please give details of any special dietary/vegetarian needs at the time of booking.
