¨
Now
that summer is coming, villagers are able to spend more time outdoors and the
grass is growing, the Council would ask, where-ever possible, for noisy
machinery not to be used on Sundays. Please let us have one day a week
relatively peaceful.
¨
If
you take your dog through the
Allotments, will you please keep it on a lead. Much damage can be done in a
short time by wayward animals.
Coffee
Mornings: Many
thanks to everyone who has hosted, helped at or attended the coffee
mornings. These began in order to raise money for the cleaning of the
windows in the church. The cleaning has been temporarily delayed because of
the need to do other necessary work first, such as re-plastering, rewiring
and redecorating. This would obviously make the windows dirty again if we
had them cleaned before this work is carried out. We hope to be in a
position to have the windows cleaned later this year. In the meantime, we
plan continue the coffee mornings, as they provide a valuable and enjoyable
social get-together. Any money raised from them will go towards the church
repair fund.
Parish
Council:
Dogs: The Council has received several complaints recently about the fouling of footpaths by dogs. It would like to remind all dog owners that to allow this is an offence as well as offensive, and a potential health hazard.
Allotment Footpath: The path between Pound Lane and Woodperry is not a bridle-way and should not be used by riders or drivers.
Waste Disposal:
Please
check with the notice boards at the Shop and Village Hall nearer the time

For
