Playden village voice

Has anyone seen or heard a May Bug this year? Have realised that they are not about. It must be the cold weather causing lack of maturity, as it is also causing lack of germination of seeds.

Playden is “resting” after the Weekend efforts and gathering momentum for the Jubilee celebrations.

There will be a report on the Catwalk Connections next week.

The mid-week services are at 9.30am for Morning Prayer and 3.30pm for Evening Prayer on Tuesday.
