The Sound of Music Through The Square Window began on 26th March.  Villagers, Shane Pym & Simon Emmerson prepared a snippet of what goes on for BBC Spotlight TV but sadly it didn’t make the cut as hoped.  It’s two minutes and twenty three seconds long, so it is unlikely they would have showed the whole piece anyway! Margery Hookings is sharing it on her Maddie Grigg YouTube channel.
But YOU can view ALL 2mins 23secs of it now 🙂

View and listen to the Village Playlist so far HERE.

See you at one o’ clock tomorrow!

Almost everyone loves the bees and despises the wasps but do you really know as much about wasps?

Countryfile.com offer an informative Guide to Wasps which looks at common wasp species found in the UK, their lifecycle and why wasps tend to sting in autumn. 

Are you worried about wasp stings?
Have you found a wasps’ nest?
The British Pest Control Association can answer those questions and much more – HERE

 

Sadly, contrary to an earlier post, Broadwindsor’s Sound of Music Through The Square Window didn’t make the cut for the news on Friday evening as hoped. So, we’re continuing the hope that it may be included sometime next week.  You can be sure if it is – you’ll be told 🙂

New parents, unpaid carers, the homeless, young people and cancer patients could benefit from digital solutions as part of the Government’s TechForce19 challenge.

The money raised by The Big Night In will be split between Comic Relief and Children in Need and will go on to support local charities and projects in the UK, so they can continue to provide vital emergency support.
There will be more demand than ever for support from local charities. This includes making sure people are safe from harm, mentally healthy and with access to food, warmth and shelter; as well as helping people stay connected, active and positive through these extraordinary times. #StaySafe
