Here’s a joke my daughter recently told me: person 1 – “When a giraffe drinks a cup of coffee, the coffee gets cold by the time it reaches the bottom of its neck. Do you ever think about that?”; person 2 – “No”; person 1 – “And that’s just it isn’t it – you only think about yourself.”
On Wednesday 26th November Darcy had her long long hair cut off in school assembly!

It’s amazing what people have achieved since the middle of October. I’m really ecstatic!
Recruiting again in January with an all out focus on Abba! It’s going to be great.
AND… also considering starting up a children’s choir targeting children in South Hill Parish if there’s enough interest. If you are interested please contact me, Rachael Budd

Have you seen the new canopy that covers the patio area – looking forward to making good use of this area next year. Work is due to start this month on providing the outside toilet by Mike Palmer and his team, and due to be opened by the New Year.
My name is Fiona and I live in Golberdon. We are collecting for Gables Dogs and Cats home to help them over the Christmas period, unfortunately a time in which they see their numbers increase dramatically.
