cafe that will leave you purring with pleasure... just don't
be surprised to find a whisker in your tea t's a cafe with a
difference. Your imperious hosts don’t lift a finger, but wander
around as if they own the place. And the odd hair in your coffee
is to be expected. For Europe’s first ‘cat cafe’ opened earlier
this month in Austria. Customers sip their tea and lattes while
resident moggies Sonja, Thomas, Moritz, Luca and Momo settle on
their laps or purr underneath their chairs

Ralph
Mynn writes The story of the
Halewick Lane rubbish site had me thinking a bit
as before this time when I lived at Mickey Mouse town (
Hillside road), Linfield's nursery occupied most of the
valley. My mother, sister and I were evacuated to
Sompting from Peckham, London toward the end of 1940
shortly after my birth, my father was in the RAF. My
mother worked at the nursery through the war and I can
just about remember being taken there and sat on the
ground whilst my mother picked radishes

 A
JUBILANT JUBILEE – a FREE ENTERTAINMENT! by the Seadown Singers
at 7.30pm on Monday evening, 4 June at St Peter’s
Church Hall, Bowness Avenue, Sompting . This will be the final
performance of our group (with a little help from you)! Our
repertoire is, as usual, hugely diverse and music will be
interspersed with poetry and our very popular refreshments, not
to mention the raffle - and a Finale suspiciously like the Last
Night of the Proms. Spend this Jubilee evening with us - and a
retiring collection will be entirely donated to charity. As the
hall does not have unlimited capacity and we do not sell
tickets, a phone call or e-mail to
rosemary@roseybru.plus.com 01903/242171, will ensure a
seat is saved for you |
