BONFIRES: Are again becoming a nuisance. We do not live in a smokeless zone. However, a little bit of consideration for neighbours is a must! At this time of year residents expect to be able to leave their windows open (if they are home), hang out their washing and enjoy our summer weather in their gardens. It is not amusing when an inconsiderate neighbour starts a fire and they have to rush around closing the windows, taking in the washing and retreat indoors.
KANCARE Coffee Club trip: Last Friday, Kancare Coffee Club members enjoyed their annual outing to the seaside. The coach left the rugby club car park at 10am for the drive down to Bournemouth.
