Monday, 21 April 2008 |
 You may have seen the handbills or the posters in neighbouring villages publicising the upcoming concert. Interest, however, is not only local.Organisers of the Kimmo Pohjonen concert on Tuesday 13 May, Mark & Sue Ringwood who live in Singleton, have reported unprecedented media interest in the performance.As one might expect it has been featured in Farmers' Weekly, and on BBC Radio's Farming Today, but on Thursday 24 April the Daily Telegraph will be carrying a feature, and the Independent's Janet Street-Porter is coming to the village to review the performance. The regional television stations of Meridian, and BBC-TV South are all set to preview the event. |

If you are wondering why the new speed activated road sign at the bottom of Cocking Hill isn't flashing any more, the answer is that it has been stolen. Apparently such equipment has become a popular target for thieves because of the valuable solar panels, wind generators and batteries it contains. This is not only a case of theft and criminal damage, it also threatens road safety and means that the good work the sign has done in traffic calming could be undone while a replacement is arranged. Sign components are now being security marked to reduce their appeal to felons and the police are stepping up their countermeasures. In the meantime members of the pubklic are being asked to report suspicious activity or interference with signs to the police by dialling 999. For a reminder of what it looked like, click here . |

The Village Spring Clean is now being replanned by the Parish Council and will take place as soon as possible. When there is a firm new date, it will be publicised here. |
