Bishopstone

12:40pm Friday 10th October 2008

CHOIR EVENING – St Lawrence Church, Bishopstone, was full to capacity on Friday, October 3, when it echoed to the Hereford Rail Male Voice Choir who gave a performance of distinction by singing songs from around the world. One number performed entirely in Welsh contained a superbly sung solo. What gave the evening a touch of piquancy was the two Stanley Holloway monologues delivered by Mr Ray Bonnington and the humorous interlude provided by Mr Tony Bailey. This was the choir’s first performance under the direction of their new musical director and it sent out all the right vibes for a bright future. The Friends of Bishopstone Church (who organised the evening) wish to thank all who supported the event, especially those who gave very generous donations to raise the total of £609 profit.

Bredwardine & Brobury Historical Society

9:21am Friday 10th October 2008

Just a reminder! The Bredwardine & Brobury Historical Society will meet on Thursday, October 16th at 7.30pm at the Damsons. Our new project will be to identify all those whose names are inscribed on the War Memorial, their family and other local connections and their service records in the two World Wars. When the Memorial was erected, everyone in the village would have known who they were. With the palse of time and memory the sparse inscriptions convey little information. it is hoped that the results may eventually form part of a booklet about Bredwardine. The society would be very pleased to hear from any relatives of these servicemen who may have memntoes or other information. Please contact Sheila or Alan. The Society also welcomes anyone who would like to be a member of this informal group (no subscription so far!).
