Hello. I just thought i’d share with you the historic news that Beckworth is to be in the Guiness Book of Records. The Guinness people have just rung to confirm the town has won the world record of the “most snuff-sniffers in a field at one time” and we beat the record, of six sniffers, by just one. So a big thank you to The Beckworth Smokelss Tobacco Club for their sterling effort, especially when so many members were suffering from hayfever. And who knows, they may even get a photo posing with the next book? Mayor G. Grimsby

Is A Snuff Enough?

Hello. A big thank you to all who visited today’s postponed Christmas Smokers Fair which for once went off almost without incident (luckily the marquee was insured against arson and there were no major injuries reported). But the big news of the day is just breaking… It’s currently too close to call but Beckworth may at last have won the world record of the “most snuff-sniffers in a field at one time”…. I’ll let you know when its been confirmed by The Guinness Records people, but it’s looking good…. Mayor G. Grimsby
