Tickets are now on sale for an evening with Andy on Friday 15 May at 7:30pm at the Masonic Hall, St Leonards. Nikki Hawes, from the Sara Lee Trust, said: “Andy is guaranteed to have you laughing as he recalls his colourful lives as a Hollywood rock journalist, a Dordogne builder, and 21 years with the Antiques Roadshow. The evening will also include an audience Q&A session and, time permitting, Andy may be able to offer an assessment of any glass you may wish to bring along with you.” There will be a pay bar, sharing plates available to purchase, and a raffle. Tickets are £12 plus booking fee, with all proceeds going to the Sara Lee Trust, a local charity providing free therapy and counselling to those affected by cancer and other life-threatening illnesses in Hastings and Rother.
