As usual there are many things going on this Bank Holiday weekend which, if they are not listed in the monthly Fixtures, will probably feature in Adams’ side window in the High Street, or on a passing lamp-post.
This Friday, May 26, the East Surrey Morris Dancers will be outside St Mary’s Church from 2:45pm.
As it is the last weekend in the month, the Rye Spice Company is featuring free tasting events from noon to 3pm on both Saturday May 27 and Sunday May 28. There should be lots of interesting dishes to try and a free glass of wine or beer with every tasting. Rye Spice can be found in the road down to Rye Harbour on the right, near the end of the trading estate by Bournes Removals. For more details contact robbie@ryespice.co.uk.
