Whatlington

HELLO: Another cold and chilly week but each takes us a step nearer to spring. If you, like us, were missed on the recycling collections this week please make sure that you log it with Rother District Council so that they can properly manage and enforce the contract requirements to ensure that all our service needs are met.

GOOD COMPANIONS: Although it was very cold & frosty when we left home to travel to Battle; in fact the frost was so white it looked like snow, the sun did come out and we had blue skies.. Members of The Good Companions enjoyed a meal at The Royal Oak, Whatlington where Marie served a delicious two course meal followed by tea & coffee which certainly warmed everyone up before going home and out into the bitterly cold weather.
