Nick Allen wishes to purchase a copy of his history of the church ‘An English Parish Church, its Story’. Perhaps someone may have inherited a copy they would like to dispose of. Please contact Nick on either 01295 232272 or [email protected].
Our genial hosts of The Bell, Michelle and Rhys both have classical music degrees, and always wanted to bring their beloved music into the relaxed and accessible environment of their great pub – so The Bell Proms were born!
And what a fabulous show they put on……… We kicked off on Monday night with The Bell Folk Club’s open session of folk and classical, followed on Wednesday by the brilliant classical guitar and flute duo Nick and Rae. Then the wonderful Adderbury Ensemble brought never heard before sounds to the pub on Thursday night.
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.
We have a few spaces in Cubs and Scouts. If you would like to have a free trial session, please reserve your place by sending an email to Cubs – Zoe Lee [email protected] or to Scouts – Catherine Hillier [email protected].
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.
