  • FILM NIGHT IN THE VILLAGE HALL ‘THE MIRACLE CLUB’. 19th November

    CHIDEOCK HALL FILM NIGHT

    Tuesday 19th November     –     7.00pm for 7.30pm

     

    The Miracle Club

    The Miracle Club - Wikipedia

     

     Ballygar, Ireland, 1967: a hard-knocks community that marches to its own beat, rooted in traditions of loyalty, faith and togetherness. There’s just one tantalizing dream for the women of Ballygar to taste freedom and escape the gauntlet of domestic life: to win a pilgrimage to the sacred French town of Lourdes. And with a little benevolent interference from their cheeky and rebellious priest, close friends Lily, Eileen, Dolly and her son Daniel are the ‘lucky’ few to win this ticket of a lifetime at their riotous local raffle night.

    An exceptional cast (Maggie Smith, Laura Linney, Kathy Bates, Agnes O’Casey and many fine supporting players) leads the way. These four have a complicated mutual history the threads of which intertwine and finally resolve in unlooked-for mutual forgiveness which, if there is one, is the actual miracle.

    £5.00 Entry – cash or card payments accepted which includes free Tea/Coffee & Popcorn

    Wine by glass or bottle, beer, cider & choc ices on sale during interval.

  • WILLOW COURSE A GREAT SUCCESS!

    A great day was had making ‘willow deers’ in the lovely garden of Chideock House.  We all went home ‘proudly’ carrying our ‘deers’.  Thank you to George & Anna for ‘hosting’ this event which was enjoyed by all with a lovely lunch prepared by Lyn & Anna and cake – courtesy of Ros – who makes the best Coffee & Walnut cake ever. Thank you to Jo – who took so much time and was a perfect teacher of this craft.  We are hoping to arrange another course – maybe a Fox and Hare at the next one.  All profits to The Friends of Clapps Mead.
