We start this week with a plea from little Titch the chihuahua and her owner who are new to A.G. They would like to go walkies with a  new friend  or two, to get to know some local people in the parish. Can you help this little doggie find some new friends? They can be contacted through the village Facebook page and would be very grateful for some company..

It’s Jazz time again next Tuesday May 1^st . This months musical guests are the fabulous Storyville Jazz Band who last visited two years ago; they were very popular then and received a standing ovation for their performance.Their music is influenced by  British Trad Jazz, especially Chris Barber who traveled to the Netherlands in 2014 to play with them on their jubilee tour.  Their music will include a lot of popular tunes and old standards, definitely not an evening to be missed. The early bird menu will be on offer from 6.30pm, but booking will be necessary before 6pm on Monday April 30^th . There is a choice of main courses and sweets; for further details, contact the Fisherman’s Rest on 01548-550284. Everyone is welcome, and  there is a raffle, guests £10 on the door.
