As promised, I can keep you updated on the tremendous success that the St Wulstan's Church roof restoration Christmas fayre realised back at the beginning of December. Thanks to all who arranged it, and those who came and supported it on the day, the restoration fund has increased by approximately £3,950! A success in anyone's book, I feel.

Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the Welland County Primary School's Christmas production of The Twelve Days of Christmas presented last week but according to several people who did go, it was a roaring success. Indeed one 'granny' thought that all staff, pupils and members of the community who helped with the production should be thanked and congratulated. It 'gladdened her heart' to see all the children, staff and audience enjoying the performance together.
