Pre-Christmas Sale 2014
Fox & Hounds over Xmas and New Year
Please join us at the Fox and Hounds for carols around the tree on Friday at 7.30 followed by the Christmas draw.
Christmas Day, we are open lunchtime only (but not serving food.?!?).
Most other times are normal except New Years Eve, when we’ll be opening at five in the evening instead of six and going through until 2014 (the year that is!)
The weekly quiz will be running as of New Years Day ( due to popular demand!)
Best wishes to all our customers for the festive period and for 2014.
Sian, George & Maz Roberts

Choir are tuning up for Christmas
The Chater Community Choir will be giving a seasonal concert to raise funds for a local charity called ‘A Christmas Garland of Song’, featuring the Beaufort Wind Quintet, which will be performed at St Andrew’s Church, Lyddington, on Friday 6th December at 7.30pm.
As in their sell out December concert last year the choir will delight the audience with popular non seasonal favourites along with seasonal songs and readings.
There may even be a mince pie or two!
Tickets are £5 and will be available in November from Tracy Steward.
The concert is in aid of the Rutland Rotaract Family Support Centre based in Oakham. The RRFSC aims to provide social, recreational, educational and therapeutic support to children and young people (0-25) with special educational needs (SEN) or disabilities, and their families. The choir has previously raised over £2000 for charity including Fibromyalgia UK and the Stroke Association since being formed in 2012.
Pub Quiz results and Christmas Greetings
This week saw the first loss of the season for the domino team but a win again for the quiz team.
The weekly quiz was won by Anty’s Mob with The Old Comtempitble’s dragging themselves off the bottom slot for the first time and coming a very respectable second. (Alzheimer’s and Coogies third and fourth respectively)
Looking forward to the carol’s around the tree tomorrow (Dec 21st) followed by the Christmas draw later in the evening.
We’d like to wish everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy, health new year. Thank you all for the support you’ve given us over the last three months.

Christmas Quiz, Carols and Draw
Been an odd week here at the Fox & Hounds (even by our standards!).
The monthly quiz was very well supported yet again and was won by first-timers, The Mikado’s.
The domino team had their match re-arranged to next week but the quiz team were again victorious!
There was no weekly quiz this week as we had a large Christmas party booked but it will return on 19th December with a hint of Christmas about it.
Friday 21st we will be doing our Christmas draw. Tickets are still available for 50p and ALL money goes to the prizes. The Draw will be at approx 9.30pm after Carols around the tree starting at 7.30pm. Everyone is most welcome, children included for the carols.
