Almost December, when it finally becomes legal to put up your Christmas decorations. Still some November events to come but the December dates are now here too.
The November Church Coffee Morning will be held on the 30th and will be held in the Village Hall as there will be a range of local artists and crafts folk who will be exhibiting their wares in order that you can do a bit of early Christmas shopping.

The Lighting of the Christmas Tree with Burtle Silver Band is always a sell out event. This year it is taking place on Saturday 7th December with the Hall doors opening at 7pm for a 7:30pm kick off. Always a fantastic event which marks the start of Christmas in the village. Mulled wine and mince pies.
The December Church Coffee Morning takes place at Jim and Morag’s house, Old Manor Farm on 14 December. Everyone is welcome and these coffee mornings (with top baking offerings to boot) are a lovely way to meet up with friends and neighbours for a natter. 10:00am to 12:00pm.
On the evening of Saturday 14th the Final of Strictly Come Dancing will be shown on the big screen and new sound system in the hall. Doors (and bar) open at 6:30pm for a 7:00pm start. This event will have catering from Glastonbury Wood Fired Pizzas who will be in attendance through the screening. A Bar, Strictly and a Top Class Pizza – it doesn’t come much better than this!!
