SHARON’S TREES: A reminder of Sharon Morris’s exhibition at ‘British Design, British Made’ in Battle High Street, from the 5th till the 19th of July. Barbara Valentine of Mountfield Arts writes: “Sharon makes the most amazingly beautiful and accurate model trees, either free-standing or to be hung on walls. There will also be some of Sharon’s lovely paintings on display. An interesting exhibition, and well worth dropping in to look at.”
CAROLINE HOLLAMBY: We mentioned last week that Caroline is in training for her biggest cycling challenge yet: a 100 miles sponsored ride in aid of Bliss, a charity for babies born prematurely or sick. If you go to http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/cyclingforlife, you will see that many villagers have already signed up to support Caroline. And you will also find the story of Caroline’s sister whose little baby, Zara, was born at 24 weeks weighing 1 lb 3 oz — that’s about half a bag of sugar! There is the most extraordinary photograph of Zara. If you don’t have internet access yourself, get a child or grandchild to visit the page and print it off for you. (Zara’s story had a happy outcome — thanks to charities like Bliss.)

Hide AdFLOWER SHOW: The Chelsea Flower Show is long gone; the marquees of Hampton Court will be packed away for another year by the time you read this, so the next big event is the Mountfield Horticultural Society Flower Show on Saturday 29th July. All the details for exhibitors are on the Schedule. For visitors, doors open at 2.00 with the presentation of prizes around four o’clock. Let’s hope we have a strong entry from the children in the village.
