From the Vicar:
"Hail dear Parishioners and indeed rain aplenty this month of June has fallen from heaven upon our blessed domicile and yet shelter from the sun is now the order of the day it seems as the winds turn south and bring in the Arabian heat. Ah, the vagaries of the weather cannot be fathomed by mere mortals, or the BBC Weatherman (other sexes are available) it would seem. However, even if Thomas Shafaknacker (a Troubling Name) cannot predict the produce of the clouds then it seems our local allotment club can. For mighty are the route vegetables now appearing in orderly line in Bill Grunt's portion. His Cucumber - as always - is a sight to behold and how Mrs Grunt can accommodate so much is a question I will pose the next time I see her pruning her bush, as she has want to do from spring to late autumn.
It was nice to see young Wilbur Wanklington-minor has been released from custodial servitude at HMP Chelmsbury upon the completion of sentence for bestial buggery with a non-consenting pot belly pig. Mrs Wun Gon Wong of the travelling Peakiness Chinese Take-a-way and Chip Shop has forgiven him in a truly Christian way, by posting the bands in the St Michael's without walls (please donate to the repairs). All those wishing to attend are requested to bring rice to the all you can eat reception at the Dog and Hernia - date to be announced.
Now much gossip has been circulated about the forthcoming W.I. Jam and Spam Jamboree at the Village Hall Tuesday week and the expected hot competition for the Strawberry Conserve Medal between Edna Bent-Double and Prunella Plat again this year. Most of you will remember the slight holocaust that ensued when M.S.G. was detected in Ednas flan leading to a regrettable breach of the peace and assault occasioning actual bodily harm so ably dealt with by PCSU Brian Dunkly. Damage amounting to £30 was settled out of court and both ladies bound over to keep the peace. Those of us who witnessed the event are reminded to keep all sharp edged items away from Pru this year.
Notices:
The Post Office:
Following consultation with Mace Supermarkets PLC the Post Office has announced that the move of the Village Post Office to the village store has been put on hold after Mrs Grace Glands (Post Mistress) invoked the Common Law amendment to the 1265 Moss Gatherers Freedom to Gather act. Apparently, Sir Cuthbert Swine as Lord of the Manor inherited the rights of Gathering and note posting upon the sight of the Post Office Notice Board and this pre-cursing the Royal Mail tenure of the premises holds precedence over the Postal Act 1878 and cannot be moved. Thus, confused the board decided to lay aside a verdict and so the Post Office is to remain as is, or erm... was! Well done Grace.
