MISS it if you dare! Time's growing short, and it's less than four weeks now to the social event of the season - the Rotherwick Village Hall Dinner Dance!

This year's extravaganza is booked for Saturday, November 15, where Back-To-Basics will once again give us their own special brand of '60s and '70s rock music.

Before the dancing begins, a two-course dinner will be served and, as usual, a selection of fine wines to hopefully cater for all tastes!

Tickets are £25 each and include a glass of bubbly.

Call Barbara Platt on 762243 to make your reservation!

WATER, water everywhere, and not a drop to drink? The Whitewater Pre-School Praise and Play Group have challenged us to beat their toddlers' action.

They are raising money for the charity Water Aid by charging a "water tax" at home - a penny for every litre of water used.

This "water tax" will be recorded, accounted and redirected before the end of October for the purpose of supplying clean water to those overseas who really do not have a drop to drink.

For further information and details, please ring Helen Robinshaw on 761698.
