Games Evening (with Poynings)
Table Tennis: Friday 29th June, 7:30pm: if the weather is fine then this event will be held at the outdoor table tennis table next to Poynings playing field (bring other outdoor games if you like); if the weather is poor then it will be in Fulking Village Hall. Followed by a visit to the nearest pub, as usual.
All welcome. Ring me, or email me, on the day with any queries (e.g., about the weather) — Jen Green (552).
Hurst Village Cinema
Five months notice — but these live broadcasts of National Theatre productions sell out quickly so you should probably book now if you want to make sure that you get to see it.

A millennial reflects (on house prices)
Dave Evans writes:
Before we reached Poynings we cut through some fields until we reached Clappers Lane and followed that until we reached the handsome village sign that welcomed us to Fulking. Fulking is one of those quintessentially English villages that most of us could never hope to have enough money to live in.

Leptodon smithii at Perching Hill
Sue Rubinstein writes:
Walking towards the old lime kiln near Fulking in much wetter conditions last September I stopped in a cow-trampled clearing to check the epiphytes on the surrounding trees. One horizontal Ash trunk over a particularly muddy slope seasoned with cow pats was coated in vivid green Leptodon smithii, bright and feathery after heavy rain.
I think this patch at the bottom of Perching Hill near Fulking is the largest I have seen. A nearby more vertical Ash tree had a small area along with abundant Neckera complanata. Radula complanata, Syntrichia papillosa and Cololejeunea minutissima were all present in small quantities. Other Ash trees around the clearing, even the really ancient ones were dominated by more common epiphytes.
