Just arrived in time for the good weather are Yarde Farm ice creams, which are much in demand and Patchwork Pate, with a selection of liver as well as vegetarian pates, as well as a lovely range of sauces from Stokes.

There will be no film club in May 2013 because of other commitments, but I can thoroughly recommend the Haslingfield Little Theatre production on Thursday 16th, Friday 17th and Saturday 18th of May. The evening will consist of two very amusing plays and there will be the usual refreshment bar. Tickets at the village shop – don’t leave it too late to buy!
