HASTINGS WELSH SOCIETY NEWS




Sadly, the Christmas Coffee Morning was sabotaged by the very seasonal snow! Apologies to those hardy souls who would have braved the scary weather conditions with their huskies!





Thankfully the weather was fair for our New Year party at Alan, Eric and Jimmy’s home in January. We had a convivial crowd of about 30 who were full of festive cheer! A particular thank you is due for the delicious food; the reluctance of people to leave was a testament to the party’s success!



THE CHARABANC HAS BEEN BOOKED and a group of us are indeed going to hear the famous Fron Choir from North Wales in Chichester on 12 February.  There’s lovely!

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 Tuesday 1st March 2011 from 10.30 to 11.30am. Members of the local Welsh Society (yes you!) will help to lead the singing!
