You can still download a copy of R&A. It is regularly updated with the latest issue, often before the paper copy is out, the photos are in colour ! and you can follow at least some of the links. So autumn is upon us already. Wherever did the summer go? They promised us a hot summer but it was a rather damp one, and now they say we will have a cold winter. Who knows? One thing that I can guarantee is that, whatever the weather, your village hall is available for you for a variety of uses. Let us know what you want from your hall. Clubs, events, meetings venue, absolutely anything will be considered. Perhaps you would like to hold a party without all the upheaval at home. Children’s parties, anniversaries etc. The hall is a great venue for such events and villagers get the hall at a reduced price. If you haven’t visited the hall in a while or perhaps even never visited, come along to one of our meetings or contact ant committee members to arrange a tour of the facilities. You will be impressed at the standard and facilities available at a very low price. As chairman, my intention is to make the hall accessible and attractive to all people in the village and whatever age group you are from. My number is in the R&A publication. Give me a call and help us to keep our village hall up and running for years to come. We are also looking for somebody to take up the role of secretary on the management committee. If you can spare a short time each month, why not come along and assist us in keeping this great village asset up and running successfully. Just call me on the number listed in this edition of the R&A. Take care and be happy.
