SECONDHAND SEPTEMBER
With the changing of the seasons why not take the opportunity to clear out and freshen up your wardrobe by donating and buying pre-loved items with local charity shops e.g. LOROS (other charities are available).

MONTHLY WALK

Our next monthly walk will be on Friday, 12th September at 5pm. As usual we will meet at the church porch.

A short stroll to start the weekend followed by tea and cake.  Please let Debra Thatcher know if you will attend.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We are looking for volunteers for the annual strim and rake of the churchyard.

Sunday, 7th September at 11:00, followed by ploughman’s lunch.

Please let Debra Thatcher know if you can join the work party on that day or are able to undertake some work in the churchyard at an earlier date – it would be good to tackle this project in a more piecemeal fashion because none of us are getting any younger!

A BIG THANK YOU

A BIG THANK YOU is due to everyone who contributed to the great success of the four afternoon teas in August whether that was setting up, making, baking, serving, washing up and clearing up.

Great fun was had by all – volunteers and attendees and the monies raised will go towards the village charities. A grand total of 897.80 was raised.

Thank you.

 

 

 

 

SCOTT & SCOTT POP UP SHOP – AUGUST 30TH

Hi All,

As it is Burghley Horse Trials on the first Saturday in September, we have decided to have our next pop up shop a week earlier on the 30th August.

We will have fresh lamb, along with the usual frozen beef, venison and pork.  We will as always have bacon.  There will be Freshly Home Baked Sourdough (limited amount please order if you want to be sure of getting one!).  I am planning to have some cake by the slice, both fresh and frozen lasagna, and hopefully one or two other bakes.

I always welcome suggestions of what you would like to see available at the pop up shops, do get in touch and let me know if you have a favourite.

If you would like a specific cut of lamb,  joint  or pack size please do let me know by Wednesday evening so I can ask the butcher to prepare it for you.

If you are unable to come to the shop on Saturday and would like to visit at another time, please don’t hesitate to give me a text, call or email at any time.

Kind Regards
Sue Scott
