Music on the Green - volunteers required |
The “Music on the Green” organisers are looking for help. They need some volunteers to set up on the Village Green at about 10.00am on Friday 10th July. This will entail putting up 1 metre high security fencing.
They also would like somebody who has a truck or a trailer that could help to bring some items on to the green from the Storage Garage in Lark Rise.
During the late afternoon on Saturday 11th July they will again want some help in stripping down and putting some items back into the garage and hopefully some help at 9.00am on Sunday for a final sweep of the Green for litter etc.
If you can spare an hour or so please contact Phil Cowey ( p.cowey*at*btinternet.com)
Also EACH are looking for volunteers on the day (11th July) to help with the selling of programmes and raffle tickets etc.
They have a rota in place so again this will only be for an hour or so.
If you can help this very worthwhile cause please contact Mark Fox Tel. 01473 276117 or mark.fox*at*each.org.uk |

A LETTER FROM DARREN THE POSTMAN |
1st Class Customers
I could not leave my post round at Martlesham Heath, where I have been delivering post for the last eleven years, without saying goodbye to everyone.
I expect you have all been wondering where I have been but my dear wife’s health, and of late sadly mine too, has taken a turn for the worse. With two young children and a disabled wife to contend with, life became intolerable, trying to start work at 3 am and with so many changes in a difficult market place for Royal Mail and business of today. I simply could not be in two places at once. Unfortunately it left me no choice but to resign from the Post Office after twenty years, and try to return to better health for my family’s sake.
