Congratulations and thanks to all those who helped organise and run this year’s Crown Road Christmas Fair. And to all the volunteers who manned stalls and helped make it run so smoothly. The weather wasn’t always looking so good, but it held and hundreds of people where able to enjoy the night.

Event Reminder: Harvey
Veta Louise and her daughter Myrtle Mae have arranged an afternoon party — hoping to find an an ideal husband for Myrtle. But things go horribly wrong when Uncle Elwood P Dowd drops in with his best friend Harvey — a 6’ 1” white rabbit invisible to everyone else.
And as their party plans go progressively down the rabbit hole, the baffled family resolves to commit Uncle Elwood to the local mental hospital.
Come to the Richmond Shakespeare Society’s Mary Wallace Theatre, Twickenham for a madcap masterpiece of merriment and mayhem as Elwood and his bunny chum dispel the despair of the credit crunch in this beautifully written play by Mary Chase.

You Always Need a Brewer at Christmas
One of the most interesting and useful books that you will ever read was first compiled in 1870 by Dr. Ebenezer Cobham Brewer. While writing a series of educational books for children Dr Brewer began to sense there was a new type of reader out there, literate but not educated in the academic sense who wanted more from books than just pure entertainment. What they were looking for, Dr Brewer surmised, was self-improvement, moral guidance and the satisfaction of simple curiosity and enquiry.

Medieval Mugging in St Margarets
Maybe it’s something in the water or those strange odorous gases that sometimes drift in from Mogden. Maybe there is a crack in the space-time continuum separating the area from the rest of decent civilisation. Whatever the reason it is undeniable that the good people up in north St. Margarets are weird! First they stop the traffic with an annual street fair. Then they get their children rushing around the streets ‘beating the bounds’. Now they are intending to celebrate Christmas with a traditional medieval Mummers Play. Next they’ll be dunking witches and dancing around a maypole!
