A Very Short Nativity: Sunday 13 December at 11am in St Peter’s

Posted on December 9, 2015 by Andy

A Very Short Nativity:

Children of all ages are invited to come dressed as shepherds, angels or wise men. We need one Mary, one Joseph and one grumpy innkeeper. It will be helpful if parents can sort out which children are playing these three parts – no-one needs to learn any lines!

Jesus’ Christmas Party will be read and the children (and adults) can all take part – stamping their feet, knocking on the door and generally joining in! This will last for about 15 minutes and will be followed by refreshments.

There will be photo-opportunities so bring your camera or phone. Don’t forget that the church is cold so under your dressing up outfit wear something warm!

Hello Horningsea

Here’s December’s Herald.

It always sounds a little peculiar at the beginning of December, but Happy Christmas to Horningsea!

As usual this is a very busy month with the usual Christmas events.

First we have the Xmas lights being turned on this coming Sunday, followed by a Nativity play and the very popular Candlelit Carol Service in the church.

Have a great month and a great Christmas. See you next year.

Kind regards

The Editorial Team

Sixth Apple Press day : report

Posted on October 4, 2015 by Chris Lindley

This year the tempo was upped. For the first time ever we ran out of apples half way through the afternoon and had to gather up people for a scrumping run! Perhaps it was industrial press (thanks John Harrison) or the production line quality scratter (thanks Richard Holton) that enabled us to produce probably the most juice ever (a very rough estimate was about 200litres). Luckily Richard had cider from last year’s Apple Press Day to keep the workers going.

We were lucky with the weather too. From a dismal forecast on the Monday the weather became glorious. We timed it perfectly with the ripeness of the apple crop too! For once we might actually have hit the peak of Horningsea’s apple trees.

Many thanks to everybody who came and joined in. Many people took away a lot of juice. If you are going to ferment it then it would be great if you could bring a sample to one of the village events. Perhaps even 2016’s Apple Press day!

We’ve had the French Cafe evening, a few International evenings, the German evening and the Greek evening. Now the HRA are pleased to announce our Curry Evening!

Spices

There’ll be plenty of chicken curry, vegetable curry, daal, rice and naans. People are welcome to bring their own dishes too!

The evening will start at 7:30pm, on the Saturday the 10th of October.

There’s a £5 admission which includes the food and a glass of wine or lager too!

A lot of you will be conflicted due to some sort of sports event at the same time….. And so the rugby will be shown outside on the hall too!
