What happened to July? Oh, thats it, it rained and rained and rained ..Some Summer !!! Pictures, below, are of 1. The village pump, an old relic, preserved ..although it does need a little T.L.C. or weed killer .. No.2 The phone box. An old relic soon to be removed,(unfortunately.) ....Our grass verges have had 2 of the 6 cuts, not that we could ever compete with Hovingham. But we do try to keep up appearances. A Council meeting was held in the church, our annual Scackleton meeting, although it wasnt well represented by our own villagers. There was more talk on our footpaths, and a mention of buying a new noticeboard to be re-sighted on the wall at Manor Farm next to the Post box, so thats something to look forward to,not having to stand on a box to see it, and use a screwdriver to get into it .. Here's looking forward to August and some nice warm sunny weather

Thats all for now. Thank you.
