It
generated a huge amount of enthusiastic response and all will be explained at
our meeting, which has been arranged at the Village Hall Committee Room for
Tuesday 24 January at 7.30pm.
However
appreciating some cannot make it this is a quick summary of a few points:
Every household
in the parish had a leaflet drop and I would like to pay particular thanks to
Martin Gelston, who did the Springhill drop despite hardly being able to see
through his moped helmet visor from the rain and Tony Bass who was ably
assisted by his terriers – have a leaflet or they will bite your legs off!
