Dear subscriber
The Annual Parish Assembly gets underway tonight at 8pm in the Village Hall and should be a lively affair. If you missed the Sports & Recreation in Grayshott exhibition there will also be another chance to see it at the back of the hall which is open from 7.30pm offering tea and coffee.
I hope the vexed question of whether the tennis court land could or should be sold off for affordable housing to fund a new pavilion won't overshadow the entirety of the sport & recreation study. A cry of 'political stitch up' being heralded in the local rag this week will have to be nimbly unpicked.
By all accounts the Messiah went down very well at St Luke's Church last Saturday and patron Karl Jenkins was obviously impressed and declared Grayshott Concerts is 'top rate' . The rugby was perhaps less impressive and we shall gloss over.
On Saturday morning at Grayshott Primary School a new community project is unveiled. Workbench, the brainchild of Rezurgence's Will Lanham-New, is a mobile community workshop offering free basic servicing and maintenance for cycles.
The beer and food evening last Tuesday at the pub raised £700 or so for Macmillan Cancer Relief largely thanks to the generosity of Fullers and The Fox & Pelican. This Tuesday at the pub, though not as tasty, will be the next BIG meeting which will be followed later on by a Jazz night at the club.
Tickets, just £5, are now on sale at Grayshott Books for the Grayshott Gardeners lecture, given by Gardeners question time panelist Pippa Greenwood, on 'Garden Pests and Diseases' on Wednesday 12th May. And whilst you are there don't forget the Little Shop of Horrors.
Tickets are also on sale at Grayshott Social Club for a PK Pre-School Race Night being run at the club on Saturday 8th May, which aims to raise funds to repair their veranda roof which collapsed under the weight of the February snow. And whilst you are there don't forget your Ska Wars.
Right that's your lot. I'm off to find that 'quick unpick' and will see you later at the village hall. Last time I was there I was fighting off that evil Boris who was intent on digging up the old A3 to put up a toll booth. Just a minute - now I come to think of it Boris did look familiar - I think I smell a rat. Do you think he could be after our tennis courts too boys & girls?
