Waldron

FOUND AGAIN: André Soucek reports that his cow that went missing last week has been found , wandering in the woods and apparently not remotely bothered by his adventure. A dog-walker flushed him out and fortunately had heard of the search so contacted André. The village jungle drums worked.

AUTUMN ARRIVES: I mentioned last week that the autumn appeared to have set in with a drop in temperature compared with the heat of last month. By the time my column had reached my readers, summer had returned and last weekend was beautiful and a balmy 25 degrees. The Village Croquet Club was playing in short sleeves again and hoping to be able to continue until our official end of season on September 22.

SINGING FOR FUN: And so our fun singing group begins its autumn term on Monday at the Methodist Hall in Cross in Hand, at the top of Firgrove Road starting at 2pm. Everyone is welcome and encouragement is given to bring along any music you may have and would like to share with the group. There’s time for refreshment too and charges are minimal, just to cover expenses.
