A warm welcome to our village.

One of the joys of village life is that every time you go walking round you meet someone you know and stop for a chat. There is always something interesting to talk about.

Yesterday on my way down from the Knott I met the current President of the Botanical Society of the British Isles. The natural history enthusiasts in the village are very pleased that she has chosen to live here for her retirement. She is, as you would expect, a fount of knowledge.
