Several golf balls have recently landed in paddocks and gardens near The Leys. A golf ball struck from the nearby public footpath or rough ground can easily reach houses, horses, walkers and neighbouring property. So far nobody has been hurt, but it is only a matter of luck. If you enjoy practising your golf swing, please choose somewhere safe and appropriate. A polite request from local residents: please don’t use this area as an unofficial driving range.
You may be aware that the churchyard grass is mown and occasionally strimmed by a small team of dedicated volunteers. We could do with a couple more bodies to help us. If you are able to assist in looking after a patch then please contact Andrew Donaldson [email protected] or 07870 900703.
This pre-loved toy sale will be held in ‘Riverside’, Dog Close between 10.30 am to 1.00 pm. It is a FOSMA event and ‘Riverside’ is the house with flags outside.
Neil Wilson will give a talk in The Institute on Oxfordshire Emigrants who were on the Cataraqui in1845. Doors open at 7.15 pm and the talk starts at 7.30 pm. This tragic story tells how the poor were ‘encouraged’ to emigrate in the 19th century and the fate of the 400, many from Oxfordshire, who endured the journey on the Cataraqui — only to be shipwrecked one day from its destination of Melbourne, leaving just nine survivors. Visitors welcome at £5.00.
