See `The Iron Lady` at Loppington

Loppington is not that far away and surely worth while going to see another great film -

The Iron Lady (12a) Tells the story of a woman who smashed through the barriers of gender and class to be heard in a male-dominated world. The story concerns power and the price that is paid for power, and is a surprising and insightful portrait of an extraordinary and complex woman. Running time: 105m

See WAR HORSE at Kinnerley Village Hall

Flicks in the Sticks has started again - what a great opportunity to see this very popular film  at Kinnerley Village Hall -  on our doorstep! War Horse (12a) From director Steven Spielberg comes War Horse, an epic adventure for audiences of all ages. Set against a sweeping canvas of rural England and Europe during the First World War, War Horse begins with the remarkable friendship between a horse named Joey and a young man called Albert, who tames and trains him. When they are forcefully parted, the film follows the extraordinary journey of the horse as he moves through the war, changing and inspiring the lives of all those he meets. Running time: 146m

More scarecrows are needed for the 

WEST FELTON SCARECROW HUNT

on Sunday 30 Sept!

 The entries are coming in now thick and fast but we could do with some more! Remember you don't have to live in the village to enter a scarecrow ~ you can choose a spot in the village to put them e.g. Churchyard, Punch Bowl car park, school playground, Nursery Close green, by the village hall, attached to a lamp post!! Anywhere!!

They don't have to be too elaborate either! It costs nothing to enter and villagers you don't have to be at home (just leave your scarecrow in your garden/drive)

You can buy the maps from the school, on the day, anytime between 11.30am and 3pm ~ refreshments and hots dogs will be available.

Table tops will also be available at a cost of £3 each.

Any donations for the cake stall would be appreciated along with any second hand toys, games, CDs, DVDs also. 

Join in the fun whilst raising money for West Felton School  

 Please drop me a line or phone by the middle of next week if you'd like to enter a scarecrow or would like more information.

 Many thanks, Sam Chair of Friends of West Felton School

Reviive exhibition of upcycled furniture

Well, this is something completely different - I must go and find out what upcycled means!

            REVIIVE EXHIBITION of new range of upcycled furniture
                    at Shrewsbury Market Hall Gallery - 11th to 29th September

 

Reviive has spent the last 12 months looking at how to develop a range of reused furniture.

 

Our designers select distinctive, well made yet out of fashion furniture, transforming them into unique individual pieces using artistic and imaginative style.

 

 

Reviive is now opening a new London store on Kew Green specifically to sell this range which we have quietly been producing over the last few months. We are tooling our workshops and bringing in a London based designer to help with our expansion and style development, Helen Edwards, who cut her teeth at Liberty's.

 

We really appreciate the Visual Arts Network for recognising this exciting new and now refined Upcycled Reviive technique!

Vintage Sports Car Club meeting Saturday and Sunday, 15th & 16th September

If you have any interest in cars, especially those wonderful old vehicles from Edwardian through to the 1920s and 30s, a trip with a picnic makes for a great day out.   Loads of space for the children to run around, beautiful surroundings and fantastic cars to watch belting up a twisty 1,475 yard track - see attachment.

Loton is about ten miles from Ruyton, at Alberbury on theB4393 from Shrewsbury to Llandrinio road.
