clip June Music Night at the Sports & Social Club

May 31, 2013, 09:20:04 AM by TonyBurroughs
-- Posted on behalf of Alan --

We have a real quality acoustic act for you this coming Music Night, on Friday June 7th – TC4. What’s that you say? Well, remember the superb Taylor’d Country from past Music Nights? TC4 is drawn from the same members of that band, and they’re coming to perform a beautiful mix of quality “new” country songs, James Taylor classics and other Americana. Husband and wife Ian and Irene Entwistle head up the TC4 quartet on vocals and guitars, with bass and backing vocals providing support. Remember Ian’s James Taylor tribute performance at The Players Theatre in Thame a couple of years ago? They played a packed house of 120 to rapturous acclaim and all members of TC4 were in that line-up. That’s the kind of quality we’re talking of here – this one is not to be missed! Starts 8:30-ish.

clip Brill Hilly - Proudly sponsored by Lodge Garage, Kingswood

February 18, 2013, 04:36:51 PM by Diane Sharp
The Intsika Trust and the Radley Athletics Club present the third running of the Brill Hilly 10k, 1k run fun and “Dash” proudly sponsored by Lodge Garage, Kingswood. http://www.lodgegarage-mazda.co.uk/

On Sunday the 14th April the Brill Hilly 10k will start at the famous Windmill and finishing at the Sports and Social Club in Brill.  The 1k fun run for all ages and the “Dash” for the littleist runners will be taking place on the Sports Fields.  Fun for all the family with prizes for the best fancy dress outfit in each race!

You can enter on line at: http://www.runnersworld.co.uk/ or download an entry form and view the map of the route at: http://theintsikatrust.wordpress.com/brill-hilly-2013/
You can also collect an entry form from Londis Stores, Brill.

The race raises funds for the Intsika Trust, a local charity that provides assistance to those affected by HIV/Aids by working with grassroots projects, particularly in South Africa.  All administration of the charity, including the organisation of the Brill Hilly, is done by volunteers.  We are therefore able to ensure that all funds raised go directly to support those most in need.

Hi
Can anybody help me. I am doing my family tree and need some assistance. My family name is Welford and we were millers at the windmill, and many members of the family lived and worked in Brill marrying into the Nixey, Glady and Monks to name just three families.  Adrian

Posted on behalf of Brian Bush:

Hi, I am the local BBKA swarm collector and have collected honey bee swarms in the local area for several years. I would appreciate the attached information sheet being placed on your village website prior to the start of the swarm season so that anyone discovering a swarm knows what to do.

Many thanks
Brian Bush
