Problems with the Mailing List

Hi everyone,

I have sent out 6 mails to the mailing list over the last few days - none of which have apparently been delivered.

As before, this problem has been caused by someone`s computer reporting my emails as spam.

If it happens again, it is possible we can identify the culprit, and if we do find out the culprit, rest assured you will be deleted from the mailing list!

Surely it is not beyond the wit of man to direct your computer to accept all emails from Yoland the then delete the ones which do not interest you!!!!!!!!

Next Shrewsbury Repair Cafe - Saturday 17th June

On Saturday I went to the Shrewsbury Repair Cafe, opposite Wilkinsons, it is within the art gallery there.

My old toaster was not doing its job as efficiently as it should and my new toaster is rubbish!

I returned after an hour to collect my old friend, restored to full working order, and was more than happy to give my donation for a job well done.

The Repair Cafe`s Facebook page is just Shrewsbury repair cafe. 

The next Repair Cafe day is Saturday June 17th, Simon will be there again on electricals, Jim on mechanical items and Sue on textiles, not sure who else yet.
If you need more information, contact Liz Evans aelizabethevans@gmail.com

The idea of the repair cafe is very simple, if it is broke, rather than throw it away, bring it in and we will try and fix it.
The idea is to create a culture where people do not simply throw something away if it is broken, but try to get it fixed, which saves both money and resources.
What can we fix?
Torches, lamps, radios, ornaments, bikes, jumpers etc.
If it is small enough to carry in, we can try to fix it.
There is a small team of fixers doing a great job who volunteer their services and time once a month.
There is no charge but we do ask for donations.

Can you help?

Message from Anita Weeks, Weston Lullingfields.

We have material about the history of the church and what was happening around the world

when the church was built which we would like to display.

Does anyone have any display boards which we could borrow over the weekend of June 10/11 June?

Please telephone John or Anita Weeks on 01939 261293.

Bodnant has the best!

Of course Bodnant Gardens in North Wales has the wonderful and famous

LABURNAM TUNNEL

But did you know there is another LABURNAM TUNNEL right on your doorstep?

Wheras at Bodnant, two rows of trees, all cloned to flower at the same time, form a tunnel some 4 metres wide,

The LABURNUM TUNNEL at Brownhill House is one row of trees, planted from a packet of seeds, and asked to grow up, over and down the other side, makeing a tunnel barely 1 metre wide.

When the gardener in charge of the wonderful tunnel at Bodnant saw photographs of ours he said "if I had not seen the photographs, I would not have believed it was possible"!

The Laburnum is looking great right now so don`t wait until we are open on 30th May as I fear it will be over by then.  Drop me an email or phone 261 121 and arrange to come this week.

Julia Donaldson & Lydia Monks
Story Time & Book Signing

Join us for a very special 'What the Ladybird Heard' story time as Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks come to Oswestry  to celebrate the publication of What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday, the latest adventure from this stellar picture book partnership. 

We're delighted that Julia Donaldson, creator of  some of the World's best loved picture books and bestselling illustrator and author Lydia Monks will be joining us at the end of Independent Bookshop Week. Featuring Julia's trademark rhyming couplets and Lydia's bright and sparkly illustrations, this story time will bring their new picture book to life! Following the story time, Julia and Lydia will be signing copies of their books.

Don't miss this chance to meet them!

If you aren't able to attend but would like to order a signed copy of What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday please contact the shop. 

Those two bad men, Lanky Len and Hefty Hugh, are back! They may be in the city instead of the farm, but they haven't changed their thieving ways. In fact, they've got even more ambitious. They're planning to steal a monkey from the zoo and use it to pinch the Queen's crown. It's a pity for them that a certain crime-busting ladybird is holidaying in the very same city ...and she's got a good idea that will ensure the dastardly pair won't get away with it! With a whole host of noisy new zoo-animal characters to meet and even a cameo from the Queen, What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday, is a sure-fire hit!

Date: Saturday 1st July – 10.00am (doors open 9.30am)

Venue: The Marches School, Morda Road, Oswestry, SY11 2AR

Tickets:
£15 (Admits One Child & One Adult & includes a signed hardback copy of What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday) and

£7 (Admits one additional child or Adult & includes a signed backlist title by Julia Donaldson and/or Lydia Monks) 

If purchasing additional tickets, please let us know what backlist title you would like. Additional copies of What the Ladybird Heard on Holiday and backlist titles can be ordered.


NB - Only those books ordered / purchased as part of the event will be able to be signed on the day.


Tickets are selling fast so please don't miss out on what is sure to be a sell out event. 

Tickets are available from the bookshop or you can purchase online (with booking fee) here
