Explosion heard over Haslingfield this morning

I (along with a load of other people no doubt) heard a really loud explosion followed by jet plane noises in the sky this morning. I looked at my watch and it said 11.33 am. I guessed the explosion might be related to the jet plane. I just checked on the internet and found this explanation. Looks like we are still living in the 9-11 era.

Luncheon Club celebrates

 On 13th June, the Haslingfield and Harlton Luncheon Club will be celebrating its 10th Anniversary.  The 1st meal was served on 26th June 2003 and we have met each month since then, only cancelling once because of snow!  This Club has been, and continues to be, a great success.
 
Thanks to the loyal volunteers and diners.

LOCAL GLIDING CLUB

glider1Haslingfield is fortunate in being only 20 minutes from one of the country’s premier gliding clubs, and we have several village residents who are club members.
Gliding is a form of flight that is both beautiful and exciting.  Nothing can quite match the thrill of flying silently, giving a birds-eye view over the surrounding countryside of Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and beyond.  Gliders from Gransden Lodge Airfield often fly two or three hundred miles on a good day.
