MAMA MIA! HERE WE GO AGAIN

No drama, no history, no disasters tonight, just a delightful romp through ABBA’s songs with Colin Firth, Julie Walters, Meryl Streep, Cher and Lily James to name just a few. It’s funny, it’s heart warming, it’s touching and of course the music is amazing! A good way to start the Christmas celebrations!

The usual mix of biscuits, teas and coffees and drinks at the bar.

CAROLS ROUND THE VILLAGE

Each year Drimpton Carollers meet up to sing. No previous experience and precious little musical talent are needed!
We always raise funds for charities for the Homeless. Wrap up against the cold, wear wellies, and bring a torch to help light our way and read the words.
We also need door-to-door collectors so if you’d just like to rattle a tin, please come along.
Our starting point is at 6pm at the end of Applefield Road, by the bollards.
Carollers will then divide into two equal groups and hope to sing to the whole village!
Please, everyone, listen out for us.
Finally, refreshments at the Village Hall for the Choir!
