In The Square - Liz and Sheila are in the front row

A lot of singing in December:

  • We join in the Pop-up Choir in East Meon
  • The Rubbish Singers are a group of people from Life Church Petersfield who sing, then go and pick up rubbish!
  • We sing around the town with Rev'd Will Hughes
  • Then join everyone in the square for the PACT Carol Service
  • Suki enjoys the Christmas Tree
  • The post box is decorated for Christmas
  • John and Liz spend Christmas Eve with Tim and Lorna (and Robyn!) in Winchester, then drove to Petersfield for the traditional drink at the Queen's head
  • Then back to Winchester for Christmas Lunch: Venison! Wonderful.
  • Back to Petersfield on Boxing Day, with the traditional walk around Chapel Common.
  • A drink at The Rising Sun at Miland then...
  • To Mark and Kerry's (and Wren!) for Boxing Day lunch - more great food!
  • The neighbours across the road lit the street up as usual
  • Tim and Lorna (and Robyn) popped in to see Chris and Ed
  • Ducks and geese still need feeding!

How about this for a pub name:
The Dog and Duck!
  Tim and Lorna popped in to see Chris and Ed and Chris was given the job of feeding Robyn - both seemed to enjoy the event!
     
Mark and Kerry's neighbours always put on a good light show!
