November 2015
The onset of the autumn always feels more real
once the clocks go back and the nightly dark-
ness starts to arrive earlier. I trust you all re-
membered to adjust the clocks? If not, you may
have been somewhat confused for the last
week!
November brings Remembrance Sunday. The
British Legion will be selling poppies in local
shops and by door-to-door collections from
Monday 24th October until the day itself.
Several village organisations are appealing for
volunteers this month; Buckden Gardeners, the
Village Hall Trust and the WI. Sadly the WI will
be forced to close if their appeal is unsuccessful
- please see p14 for details.
We are also appealing for autumn images for
possible use on the cover. We seem to be well
stocked with winter and spring pictures but are
somewhat lacking in autumn ones. Time to get
those cameras out and feature on the cover of
the magazine!
Please remember to visit the website. There are
often articles there that we could not fit into the
print edition, as well as information that arrives
during the month. The address is:
