My best friend Giles Ashton-Roberts is lucky enough to be running the London Marathon on Sunday, I’m lucky enough to have been appointed as Support Crew so will be cheering him on from the sidelines once the laces are tied and the gel packets pocketed! Please support Giles in this huge effort and donate to this charity which is a very close cause for him.
Help Giles Ashton-Roberts raise money to support Motor Neurone Disease Association

There was a tree down blocking Church Lane this morning. It has been reported to the Buckminster Estate. Hopefully it will be sorted without delay. Just for awareness that it has been reported and is being dealt with.
