The Eagle Note from the Editors Has Spring sprung? Have we left the Winter behind? We do hope so. It’s great to see snowdrops and daffodils “spring-ing” up in the gardens and hedgerows around the village. The evenings are drawing out too, daylight for longer – it feels like it’s been dark for months!! And, how can we not mention the bleating of the new lambs in the fields around our parish.
Big Thank You Once again, thank you to those of you who have let us have your donations towards the production of The Eagle for this year. A lot of you have been very generous again – thank you. In the twelve months that I (Sharron) have been the co-editor with Pat, we’ve seen a steady increase in the number and variety of articles included together with more and more parishoners contributing which has meant an increase in the average pages each month from 16 to 20, and therefore an increase in production costs. You’ll have noticed a change in the printing of The Eagle last month. Amazingly it does work out (a bit) cheaper (and quicker) to get a printing company to produce the 130 copies of the newsletter each month rather than us printing it and collating it ourselves!! If you’ve mislaid your “little brown envelope” for your donation, please let us know and we can let you have another one. Unfortunately, if we haven’t received your donation before the April issue, we will assume you no longer wish to receive our parish newsletter. Don’t forget the deadline for submission of any articles for The Eagle is the 20th of each month. Until next time ……………………………. !!
Pat and Sharron
