May and June were full of events in the Village—in this issue we’ve got reports and pictures from both the School and Church Fetes and the ‘Butler’ party. All of them were really successful and well attended— thanks to all those involved in keeping these lovely traditions going for everyone to enjoy. Whilst we’re on the subject of gratitude—all of us involved in the Hullavington News would like to express our sincere thanks for your donations—the envelopes were very successful; to date we’ve received £646.60 which is fantastic and will keep us afloat for a year. Your support and generosity is really appreciated! In this issue we have the schedule and entry form for the Village Show which takes place on Saturday 31st August. There will be something for everyone to enter and the show secretary would particularly like to encourage more entries from children. The show takes place before the end of the school holidays so perhaps something to keep them occupied! Some lovely Ro- settes have been donated and there will be one for every chil- dren’s entry (regardless of result). Regardless of age—if you haven’t entered before, why not have a go—you don’t have to be a serious flower arranger or cook—it’s a bit of fun and lovely to see people’s contributions. Hope to see you there! Sally The Editorial Team: Sally Jeeves, Liz Greenman and Carl Greenman 3 ♪♫♫♪♫♫♪♫♫♪♫♫♪♫♫♪♪♫♫♪♫♫♪ PIANO LESSONS JENNIFER J.

They state the victim is liable for prosecution. They suggest this can be avoided by arranging payment immediately by methods such as bank transfer or by purchasing iTunes gift cards. • If the victim is hesitant or refuses to comply, a threat is made such as immediate arrest, sending bailiffs to the victim’s address or, in some cases, deportation. • In genuine cases, HMRC will make direct contact with you via post/letter. If HMRC contact you via telephone they will quote the reference number on the initial letter.
