All the fun of the pear

In Gote Lane.....

Turners farm shop

Turners farm shop has a new man in charge, Andy Dean. Check out the shop at Highfield Farm on the Halland Road. They're open 9 - 1 on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

And some lovely meat.

And some other stuff.

We have tested the beer on your behalf. It is excellent.

Ringmer precinct shops Christmas extravaganza

There was hardly any rain, which was extraordinary, given the last few days. There were free mince pies (thank you, Jack and Jill), free sausages (thank you, Lew), free pizza (thank you, Dominos), free Indian nibbles (thank you, Ganges), free winter Pimms (thank you, Ringmer Wine Store).

There was carol singing from the primary school:

and there were Jellicle cats, who I thought were delightful to watch and also immensely brave to do that on wet, slippery concrete, so many congrats to Empire Dance

and youngsters doing some very watchable moves (Can't identify what the dance was - wrong generation, but it was very good.)

Still gorgeous - fantastic clouds

But still stuck.
