Books! Books! Books!

Obviously, our well used Telephone Book Exchange has a limited capacity.  🙂
Each time, when tidied and cleared, excess books have been taken to the Comrades Hall.  There are now too many and the time has come to donate.

Lyme Regis RNLI Week which, all being well, will run from 24th July to 31st July this year, will be running a large secondhand book stall to raise funds that week.  They have arranged to collect our boxes of books from the Comrades Hall on Tuesday, 27th April when the Post Office Outreach service opens at 10am.

If you have any books you would like to donate, please bring them to the Comrades Hall, this Friday, 23rd April between 10am and 12 noon in order for them to be included in the donation.  Thank you.

A Request Re: Bernards’ Place

Chris Edgerley is making excellent progress building the wall by the play area in Bernards’ Place.  He is asking if anyone has a large ammonite or anything that could go into the wall as a feature, you will see the picture of the stone carved horse’s head which was donated and has been placed in the wall and is very impressive.

Also. . .

The Treasurer of the Comrades Hall Committee has need of a smart phone to allow him to do his online banking.  If anyone has a redundant one they no longer need and could donate – please get in touch asap. Telephone David Leader on: 01308 868275 or 07867 608652.  Thank you.
