Wednesday 9 May is the 350th birthday of Mr Punch. At 7.30pm for 8pm in the Hall, Nick will be telling the story of Mr Punch’s first appearance 350 years ago, and explains why St Andrew’s has a painting of him dated 200 years earlier. Tickets £5 from the parish office or the Hall (in aid of the development fund) – or pay at the door.

There will be a glass of something to toast the birthday boy…
