Front Cover
This month’s cover, based on Tim Prince’s idea, is of the
flower garden in front of the Burberry Homes. The flow-
ers are planted up and looked after by Jean and Jack
Hall. We are grateful to Tim, Jean and Jack.
We are always looking for photos, images, drawings and
paintings to use on the front cover so please keep send-
ing them in. Please note that photos should ideally be in
portrait format and should be a
minimum
of 2400 x
1700 pixels. More is better!

As the finishing touches were being put to this edition of
Roundabout, I was surprised at exactly how warm it still
is! Popping out in the car to run an errand, the tempera-
ture on the dashboard was registering at 28 degrees!
Sadly, one of our editorial team has decided to relin-
quish his role on the team. We’d like to express our
thanks to Ian Marlow for his contribution and assistance
since joining us, and wish him well.
As a consequence, we are now looking for fresh blood
on the editorial team. We are a friendly, relaxed team
and we each bring something different to the mix. If you
have any interest in joining us, please give Ian Carter a
call for a chat, or send an email to the editor at the
email address given below.
This month, we have an article from Mark Ward about
the threat to our wildlife - it can be found on page 13
and is definitely worth a read.
This month also sees the start of a regular youth club on
Thursday evenings at Buckden Towers (see page 12).
Both the Village Hall Trust and the Parish Council will tell
you that there have long been requests for more activi-
ties for youngsters in the village, so please support this
new endeavour and help get it off to a flying start!
Please remember to visit the Roundabout website.
There are often articles there that we could not fit into
the print edition, as well as information that arrives dur-
ing the month:
