The Village hall weekly roster:
Monday Lunch for the elderly has been cancelled following the theft of the tea spoons. PCSU Urban Beat Officer Mustapha Leak - Reports investigations are on going alongside the theft of a tea service from the Vicarage prior to the Vicars cancelled tea party.
Tuesday Yoga 10 till 11 am.
Margery Mongoose-Smyth and Pippin Huntingcombe-Bumble will be encouraging us once more this year. Their "Lion Face" relaxation therapy rightly has been the talk of the village and for only £2 a session is most excellent value for those with joint issues and the mildly mute. There is no truth in the rumor that Misty Pringleton facial contortions has in any way been caused by her attendance last year at yoga. Medical investigations are on going as this newsletter is being compiled and we wish her a speedy recovery from whatever it is that causes whatever it does for however long it may be.
Tuesday Jazzercise 2 pm 3 or exhaustion - whichever is sooner.
Penny Prune and Penelope Squid will be leading the Jazzercise once more. Villages are encouraged to remember the autopsy report concerning Martha Prenderghast's most unfortunate death was attributed to cerebral concussion and not being hit on the head by Willy Dents foot during last tuesdays free style kung-fu line dance sequence. Still, remarkable value for only £2 a session. Bring your own defibrillator.
Tuesday - Ladies Choral Society 7 pm till 10 pm
Ms Principle Lead will be conducting again this year following the groups majestic production of Pearl Harbor The Musical last year during the village fete. A little Birdie reports we can expect something even more monumental this year. Readers may recall, The local Huntingdon Express theater critic noted "this truly will stand as one of the most authentic battle sequences and war musicals ever enacted by a amateure group. Will IWas goes on, "I was moved to tears when Mrs Sheila Spoonbill (playing the USS Arizona) was struck by a torpedo fired by Mrs Brenda Slovene (playing a Japanese Torpedo plane) exploded and sank in the duck pond causing substantial blast damage to the green house of Mr T. Brown to the rear of the duck pond. The subsequent panic soon abated and we are all most impressed by the fact that Sheila survived intact thanks to her substantial under garments. Plucky gal! Spontaneous applause broke out and many tears were shed when the survivors regrouped at the end of the show to take a final bow before conveyance to accident and emergency. Amazing so few died really!". Here here say we all.
Wednesday - Village and Parish coffee morning 12 till 3 pm.. Please do not miss this weekly social gathering, so enjoyed by all. Should you feel the need to help please volunteer to join our loyal band of ladies and gentlemen who perform so splendidly in the running of this well attended event - well, it keeps one fit!

Wednesday - Evening Bible reading 6 ill 8 pm.
The Methodist Bible and Spoon bending group welcome all comers to this weekly contemplation of the good word from the good book. Entrance is free but exit costs £3. This week Kathleen Quietly-Dim and assistant lay chief vocalist Ms Faith Fartington-Ovenwear-brown will be concentrating (weather permitting) on the place of cod in fish and chips vs haddock as a artistic style choice in modern post war biblical art. Any readers who may understand how this fits with modern faith should call for psychiatric help immediately, or attend the above group. Last weeks contemplation entitled "Jove who drove to shrove tuesday and lent his ass on ash wednesday", was well received by the usual plaintiffs. Mable Claggwort has since been released on her own cognition from safe custody following her sectioning last week by PC Hill after Mable lost the plot ripped off all her clothes and ran around chanting "Peas Pudding Peas Pudding Peas Pudding" much to the amazement of the junior net ball team on the court outside. Kathleen and Faith have promised to not over spice the fruit cake again.

bulldozer with tremendous zeal. And none more so that Ariadne Bloomergust who shortly will sadly start her five year term in the Scrubs for possession of an offensive weapon and criminal damage to a JCB. I know many of you found her talk on home made anti tank weapons very useful last month. However, the battle is now to save the great crested newt and move them to speedy sanctuary.
