February 2019 Editorial
Christmas and the
festive events, enjoyed by all, are now over and we are well into the new year,
but as this is the first issue of 2019, I wish all readers and their families,
a happy, healthy and peaceful year ahead.
As always, winter and its dark and
dreary days has brought the inevitable seasonal coughs, colds and other
ailments. For those who could wish for
better health just now, we send our warmest wishes and hope you will be feeling
better very soon.
We also send good wishes to all
newcomers to the Village and to all those who have moved away.We hope you will be happy in your new
homes.
Although the mornings still seem dark,
the evenings are drawing out;
the bulbs are popping up and there are snowdrops out - spring is
on its way.
British Summer Time begins on the 31st
March, don't forget to put your clocks forward an hour on Mothering Sunday
[1.00 a.m.] or you may miss church services!
Although technically a freebie, the
Newsletter costs approximately £1.50 a copy, so your donations are still
welcome, appreciated and necessary!
Some postal subscriptions have now run out and if you are someone to
whom this applies, a letter is enclosed with your Newsletter.
This issue has lots of interesting
articles thanks to the regular contributors and everyone else who has put pen
to paper or e-mailed me articles; of course, Paul, our Artist in
Residence and Sue and Mike Richards for the frosty and misty view of Watermouth
from Napps on the cover.
Items and articles for the next issue,
covering April, Easter and May, would be appreciated as soon as possible and by
Wednesday, 6th March at the latest.
Thank you.
Enjoy your Newsletter and the events
planned for you in the coming weeks.
Ed.
