It is with much sadness that we have to advise of the passing of Len Donald, one of our founder members.
Len will be sorely missed for his cheery smile and easy-going nature and not least by those who happened to acquire a little something (that they probably didn't really need) from his bric-a-brac stall on Fete Day. Our condolences and thoughts are with Len's family at this sad time.
The funeral service will take place at Elmers End Crematorium, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4TD on Monday 14th June 2010 at 10:30am.
Flowers may be sent to Len's home. (Should anyone need the address, please contact the Committee)

- Selby Field flooded! - 31st March 2010
>Due to the very wet weather we have endured recently at Selby and the particularly harsh winter, large areas of the site which would normally have dried out by the start of the season are currently still underwater.
In order to avoid too much damage to the grass and churning up of the ground, please try to avoid visiting the site over the Easter period, until the site has begun to dry out.
- Lympne Hill closed from 15th February 2010 for 6 weeks
Lympne Hill will be closed for 6 weeks from 15th February 2010 for drainage improvement works, so please be aware if you are planning to travel to Selby for the start of the new season.
