I have just had to "put pen to paper" metaphorically, so say a big "thank you" to Jo, Pauline and all those who had helped put on the village Christmas Fayre!  Yesterday, Mike and I came back from a peaceful and friendly Holy Communion Benefice Service at Eaton Hastings and walked down to the Reading Room and our feeling of well being continued as we walked into the Reading Room where we were absolutely bowled over by the transformation that had taken place there.  
The atmosphere was so warm and friendly - the displays, the colours and the goodies for sale were perfect and so enticing!  It was lovely to hear folk's laughter and chatter! We walked round two or three times absorbing the sights, stopping at each display - we did managed a glass - Mike bubbly Elderflower and I "just" managed a glass of Prosecco! The raffle was essential to try our "luck" on and we looked at the furniture which was so tempting that we came home with a small table - thank you!
The occasion was perfect and I'm sorry for anyone who missed it! I'll end by saying once more - THANK YOU!!

Attached here is an note about upcoming environmental projects in Great Coxwell from the National Trust, it includes plans for the Great Barn Pond and for the paddocks to the south of Puddleduck on either side of the barns.

You'll notice a "P" marked on the plans, this is for National Trust staff to park and is not public car parking.

There are contact details in the document and there is a planting session on December 14th from 9 til 1.

Great Coxwell National Trust Projects

​Left-over from recent building work:

• A couple of barrow-loads of Cotswold stone, roughly brick-sized and shaped – good for a rockery etc
• One complete roll of fibreglass loft-insulation (SuperGlass 100mm) – install in your shed?
• Big bag of English oak off-cuts. Kiln-dried, great for a wood-burner or carving projects.  

Any takers? Please contact Russ@Stonevale on 07968-277059 (text or voicemail)

Please find attached the Church Services timetable.
