HOW HIGH IS BADSEY BROOK?

Wouldn't it be great to know how high the brook is at any time of day or night. Well now you can. Ryan Thomas, who runs the weather station in Mill Lane, Badsey, has added a feature which measures the depth of water in Badsey Brook every hour. To view this feature just click onto the Badsey Weather logo on this webpage. Ryan is also going to add an email flood alert system for people who live near the brook, and as they say fore-warned is fore-armed.

TWO AND TWO MAKE SEX
A Comedy by Richard Harris and Leslie Darbon
(An amateur production in accordance with Samuel French Limited)

Phoenix Theatre Group present their Summer production, Two and Two Make Sex, a play by Richard Harris and Leslie Darbon at the Badsey Remembrance Hall on Thursday 28th, Friday 29th and Saturday 30th June 2012. Tickets are £7 each and available by calling the tickethotline on 07910 499589 or email tickets@phoenixtheatregroup.co.uk.


A Synopsis of the Play: Middle-aged George is undergoing, in the words of his wife’s friend, Ruth, the virility crisis. Impelled by this uncomfortable but supposedly universal male accompaniment of a certain age, he has been seeking reassurance from young Jane, leaving his elegant Highgate drawing-room for dalliance in her bright but modest Holland Park bed-sitter. His wife, Clare, is vaguely aware of what is going on and, through a variety of events, finds herself behaving in somewhat the same way with Jane’s boy-friend Nick, who has managed to pass himself off to the older woman as her husband’s psychiatrist. The action swings between the two contrasting rooms until matters are brought to a general confrontation through the arrival of dues ex machine in the person of Jane’s father, Jack. In a long climatic scene mistaken identities abound and rebound, and a bizarrely humorous game of make-believe is played by all concerned, including friend Ruth.

Q&A Your Questions Answered

We are a Badsey family living abroad. We used to keep up to date with what was happening in the old village through reading the Community Newsletter pdf file which we could download from your website. Why did it stop?


The reason the Community Newsletter pdf stopped being published on this website was due to a breakdown in communications between the previous editor of the newsletter and this website. I have contacted the new editor of the newsletter and she is currently accessing the legal implications of putting a copy on this website.
