Saturday 4th September, 9.30 am
At last we are able to have our usual joint effort to do the annual 'major clean' for St Giles. So I hope you are able to come - this Saturday at 9.30 - and do your favourite bit(!) and then come back to Hollycroft for coffee and cake afterwards. Sylvia (07923 563662) Hello All,
Please can we do something for the people who have arrived here from Afghanistan with nothing. We are all so lucky. Ideas please. Sally, Clayton Villa. Email:- [email protected]  Are you interested in learning about Yoga but don't know where to start? Join Rachel for a 5 week beginners Yoga course on Mondays at The Ranch in Great Coxwell. This course will start on September 6th @ 6:30PM. Movements will be supported with props such as chairs and bolsters to make the practice more accessible. This course includes a 20 min phone consultation so I know what adjustments to the practice will be needed for each student. Contact Rachel Wannerton on 07928583879 or [email protected] to book your place or ask any questions you may have. I hope to practice with you soon. -Rachel P.S- Yoga is for everybody, you don't have to be flexible to start practicing!  Saturday, 25th September – Barbecue at the Vicarage 5pm
This is for all villagers to come and join Maureen for a sociable evening. It would be useful to have an idea of numbers for catering purposes for this free event, so perhaps you could let me know if you intend to come ([email protected] or 01367 241632). I shall send out a reminder nearer the time, but please put it in your diaries and come and join in. Pat Jo (Danes House) is raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support and will be having her head shaved this weekend. Macmillan provide amazing support to those who need it, you can find out more about the charity here, 98% of their income comes from voluntary donations and if you would like to support them Jo's page is here. Thank you, Jo and Gav  Thanks for all the lovely pictures which I have received, a reminder to send an image to [email protected] by Sunday/Monday if you would like your dog to be on the card! :)
Thanks!! Fiona W The South & Vale Waste Team will be in Great Coxwell for 3 days from 21 to 25 October to carry out a ‘deep cleanse’. This consists of litter picking, sweeping and removing weeds/moss from pavements. They will not spray weeds, cut grass or vegetation or remove weeds or moss on roads. This work will not include footpaths or right of ways as these are the responsibility of Oxfordshire County Council.
They are willing to accommodate our requests for areas we feel that they should concentrate on and have provided a table to collate these and to list their relative priorities which is attached. If anyone has any suggestions, would you please use this table and return it to me at [email protected]. I’ll collate the replies and send the table to the South & Vale Waste Team. Could you please send your suggestions to me by Wednesday, 8th September. Thanks very much, Mike Harris Dates for your diaries

After speaking to people around the village we thought it would be nice to get together a personal card for the Postman Paul with all the dogs of the village on for him to remember his time here! As he was such a favourite of theirs! If you would like your dog to feature please could you send a picture to [email protected] before Sunday 27th August and I shall try to put one together! Best wishes, Fiona Watters |
