On Saturday afternoon, 21st March 2015, members of Brinsley
St James church are planning a Special Spring Fair, the first of its kind in
the newly refurbished building.
A variety of stalls containing cakes, scarves, tombola prizes, gifts and Easter Treats together with
hot refreshments will be available in the sumptuous new surroundings throughout
the afternoon.
The top prize in the Raffle is a large wicker hamper
groaning with goodies Fortnum & Mason style!
In order to celebrate the occasion, local author Ztan
Zmith is launching a brand new book – his 16th with a Brinsley Theme.
The new book, priced at just £2.00, is called “Brinsley Briefs,” and includes tales of
the time when the film crew for “Sons
& Lovers” hit the village. It
also looks into local Troubles with the Law; Broad Lane & Plain Spot
characters; the fate of the man who was a member of Brinsley’s Comic Band and
tells the story of the delightful Annie Fletcher etc.
The book will be available at the Fair and afterwards
at Brinsley and Underwood Post Offices or from Ztan by telephone - 01773 783009
or by e-mail stan@powercomp.co.uk A pdf version will be available for e-mailing
to any part of the world.
