FATHER Christmas will be arriving at Redmarley village hall at 2pm on Saturday, November 30 when you can do your Christmas shopping as there will be stalls well laden with all kinds of good things. The atmosphere will be very jolly and festive in which to enjoy a cup of tea and one (or two) of those delicious home made cakes for which Redmarley events are renowned and it's all in a good cause.

The Women's Fellowship's Christmas party will now be held on Friday, November 29.

There has been another splendid collection for the Children's Society boxes for 2002 which amounted to £291.61. Congratulations to everyone who supports it and to Mrs Sybil Pratt the secretary.
