Bobservation No. 15
We had a successful village Christmas party on Friday 18th December principally due to Nick’s great mulled wine (ably assisted by Mr Lidl), Lee’s decorations and Louise, Jay and George’s efforts on the Tombola together with the helpers who passed food and drink around and cleared up afterwards. The generous number of donated prizes made for an excellent Tombola.
But… why such a low turnout? The attendance at the village Christmas party seems to have shrunk over the last few years. Please give me some feedback to bob.pamrowland@btinternet.com. Is the Friday before Christmas conflicting with other festive events? Is it the wrong location? Is it the wrong time of day? Should we have better facilities for children? Should we give it up altogether? Do you dislike the idea of mixing with other villagers? Have you any other suggestions?
I believe it is such a good way of introducing newcomers to the rest of the village and other people connected with the village that it would be pity to have it disappear. Please respond and I promise we will do everything we can to get the event back on track.
Fulking Social Committee Annual General Meeting is at 7:30pm on Thursday 4th February in the village hall. If you feel like getting involved come along.

Bobservation No. 14
This year the party is being held on Friday 18th December from 6:30pm in the Village Hall as usual (although it was once held in the former clubhouse at Preston Nomads).
We have tried all sorts of variations in the past, carol singing (no one listened!), having a kids’ party at the same time (pretty chaotic!), charging for entrance (someone had to be on the door!), dimming the lights (dangerous with mulled wine!) and finally ended up with what we do now: talk, nibble and drink!
Over the years it has become a wonderful way of introducing newcomers to the village to other villagers and getting them to see what a welcoming and hospitable village Fulking is. All villagers, their families, and former villagers are welcome and although the event is principally for adults, if you cannot get a babysitter, do bring the kids with you. Incidentally, the Shepherd & Dog is having a children’s Christmas party on 24th December at 4:00pm.
We gave up having an entrance fee some years ago (see above) but, if you are coming, please bring a plate of savoury eats with you. Wine both mulled and unmulled and soft drinks are supplied by the Fulking Social Committee and the cost is usually defrayed by having a Tombola, for which we need both adult and child prizes (drop them off at 13 Clappers Lane (Louise, 773) or Furzefield, Clappers Lane (Bob, 271). Help in passing wine and nibbles around is always appreciated, as is clearing up afterwards.
If you are free on the evening of December 18th, I do urge you to come along. I promise we will make you welcome and you will enjoy the company.
