Our last surgery was fairly busy again on Saturday. Due to the exhibition for York Road School there were a large number of people at the coffee morning which takes place at the same time as our surgery and makes for a nice atmosphere, though we still ensure that any issues are dealt with confidentially if required.
The weekend just gone has been a busy one within the ward with the event above and also a very well attended Craft Fair at the Old Hall on Saturday.
Today the Remembrance Service was held at the War Memorial opposite Maurice Lea Park followed by a parade to St George and Mary's Church. Once again the event was very well attended and our thanks go to the Staff from SDDC for keeping the road closed to ensure this went smoothly.
It is also worth mentioning that it is the first Remembrance Service since our vicar David Perrett retired. We wish David all the best and would like to say that today's proceedings were excellently performed by Lay Preacher Caroline Carr. She was well supported at the Memorial by Theresa Tilley and especially the young man playing the Bugle for the Last Post. Credit goes to the Scouts, Guides and Brownies who carry on the legacy of remembrance and all other organisations present.
