THIS year's Bosbury Players production will be Gilbert and Sullivan's Patience. Performances will be from Wednesday, November 30 to Saturday, December 3 in the parish hall. Musical rehearsals start early in June and producer Robert Lane would be pleased to hear from anyone who would like to get involved. Regular cast members are already enthusiastic but if you are new to the area, this would be an ideal time to get involved. Call Robert on (01531) 640211 for details.

On Friday, May 6 Bosbury's favourite village concert takes place at Holy Trinity Church, with performances from talented 8-80 year olds! Anyone who feels the urge to perform, can contact Esther Kay on (01531) 670634 as soon as possible.

The village shop is now open on Sunday mornings from 8am-noon. Although many of us have already placed a regular order for Sunday newspapers, additional orders would be most welcome to ensure that this valuable service remains viable. Your regular custom is appreciated and essential.

On Sunday at Holy Trinity, evensong is at 6.30pm.

Reminder: If you would like details of forthcoming events, fundraising or news publicised in this column, please let me know by 10am on Tuesdays.
