Shepherds of the South Downs – an illustrated talk by Ian Everest
Rustington Heritage Association, Rustington
Central to Sussex farming in past centuries, and to the economy of the area, were the thousands of sheep that grazed on the Downs. The shepherds, who spent their solitary lives caring for their flocks, were a familiar part of the local countryside. Ian Everest tells their story, having grown up on a farm in the South Downs himself, before going on to work in agriculture.
Visitors £3, payable at the door. Rustington Heritage Association members free. All admissions subject to availability of seats on arrival.

Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy
Ferring Community Cinema, Ferring
Ferring Community Cinema will be showing their next film, ‘Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy’ on Friday 12th September.
The fourth of the Bridget Jones films has already become a favourite, managing to provide a good mix of poignancy and humour, delivered with heart by familiar faces. The stellar cast includes Renée Zellweger, Hugh Grant, Colin Firth, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Sally Phillips, Claire Skinner, Neil Pearson, Jim Broadbent and Emma Thompson.
After four years as a single mum, Bridget (Renée Zellweger) has been encouraged back into the dating game and finds herself caught between a younger man and her son’s science teacher. What follows is warm, funny, with the usual Bridget trademark of supreme awkwardness and physical humour, understood perfectly by British director Michael Morris.
We’re in for a treat!
Tickets are £6 and available at the North Ferring Co-Op, the Premier Stores in South Ferring, and on the door on the night. Ticket price includes tea, coffee or a soft drink, and biscuits. Doors open at 6.30pm for a prompt 7pm start.
Ferring Community Cinema is a not-for-profit organisation with profits donated to Ferring Village Hall and other charities.
