28 April 2020 - More good news
Dear everyone,
Again some good news. Let’s hope that this is a pattern which will continue.
Firstly, Tony Ferrari tells me that once more you have come up trumps with your donations to the Sunday foodstuff box collection at the Telephone Box. As you know these foodstuffs will be used by Littlemoor and Preston volunteer support group to help those in need at this difficult time. Such was your generosity that by Sunday afternoon the box was overflowing, and then some of the more eagle eyed amongst you spotted a suspicious character emptying the box, and wisely reported that the food was being stolen. Well fear not, for after Sherlock Hubbard’s detailed forensic examination of the circumstances, I can tell you that the ‘thief’ was none other than young Louie O’Leary who organises the volunteers! He did not want to leave foodstuffs out overnight in case of foxes or other varmints damaging it. As a suggestion Louie, it would probably be better next time if you didn’t wear your mask? He returned on Monday to collect further donations, and would like to record his thanks for all the support you have provided. The food will all be put to very good use. Well done to everyone who is helping this worthwhile venture.
Secondly, a reminder that DCC garden waste collections resumed yesterday, so put out your bin on the usual day and they will whisk away all the detritus (you can see who has been passing the time by playing Scrabble) resulting from tidying up your garden.
Stay safe and positive.
Best regards
Chris
