Making Tracks performed by LADS

Tonight I went to see Making Tracks, the story of the Cambrian Railway,
performed by Llanymynech Amateur Dramatic Society.

Written Neil Rhodes, a member of LADS, and something like 105 parts
played by 70 or so adults and children with an excellent music group and
brilliant singing of songs, also written by LADS members.

I can recommend this production, do try and get to Llanymynech, either
the outdoor performance, or like tonight, in the village hall, both on
the Knockin road as you drive into the village.

Tomorrow`s performance starts at 7pm and 3pm on Sunday 24th.

Making Tracks will be performed again at the old Cambrian Railway
Station, Oswald Road, Oswsestry next weekend - Thursday, Friday and
Saturday, June 28th-30th at 7pm.

Please go and support LADS and learn a bit of local railway history.

Our Village Hall is nearly finished!

So sorry Colin and all of you out there.  This email would not go at the time and then got lost in `Save as a Draft`.  My apologies.

The redecoration of the Village Hall continues this week, with the work being done by the same team as before - they have done a tremendous job so far.
The work is scheduled for Wed (today), Thursday and Friday, with a second session next week planned as well.

This week we are concentrating on the downstairs of the Hall - both loos and the entrance hall.
There is a bit to finish upstairs (some woodwork needs a second coat) and there are parts of the exterior that need finishing.

We shall work around existing bookings - Zumba is still scheduled for 7:30 on Thursday evening. However, we encourage all users to watch out for wet paint, and you are reminded that clean, polished floors might be a bit slippier than some are at present. But on the "up" side, the lights in the ladies' loo will be brighter (and not so "unflattering") and we will fit a bigger mirror.

If any villager would like to bake a cake for the team for Thursday and Friday I am sure that will be appreciated - the Village Hall Committee and some friends and neighbours did exceptionally well last time, and I have cake for today - thank you all.

Can I remind you all that the Talbot have very generously donated £125 towards the cost of materials, and B&Q in Harlescote have given some discounts on paint etc. - though we have "run them out" of paint sometimes!

Infinity Bus - everything you want to know

The BT Infinity Internet Bus is visiting our area for the day on SATURDAY 23rd June - this Saturday.
The bus will be able to supply information about Infinity - the BT version of Superfast Internet.
What businesses and domestic users can do with it, how it changes your on-line experience, how to get it etc.

It will open at 9:30 on Saturday 23rd at the CORBET SCHOOL in Baschurch (many thanks to the team at the Corbet for facilitating the visit)
It will stay until 12:00 before packing up to move on to

It will open at the BBQ at 2:00pm and stay until 4:00pm (many thanks to the team at school for inviting us to join their BBQ)

Everyone is welcome to come and see what it's about - whether young Primary School children, teenagers, Mums and Dads or Grannies and Grandads. Anyone in business, or working from home, youngsters doing homework or playing games, Skype, Facebook, Twitter and all the other common uses. And Video on Demand - one of the services that is made possible by Superfast Broadband.

Infinity is already available to most people in Ruyton XI Towns and the contractors were busy last week in Baschurch installing the fibres to get Baschurch connected.

Please pass this email on to friends and neighbours who might be connected to the Baschurch Exchange - particularly if you live in Baschurch rather than Ruyton XI Towns - our "communication network" via Yoland's email system is not as extensive in Baschurch.

I will send further information later in the week.

Yes, Colin is quite right - please can we get more people on the mailing list from Baschurch - PLEASE TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBOURS TO CONTACT ME.

Having so few people on the list from Baschurch means we very rarely get information about events going on in the village next door.

PLEASE send information to me to cut and paste or attach a poster.

Looking forward to hearing from you very soon,

SHREWSBURY QUARRY PLAY AREA REOPENED

Part of the Quarry play area in Shrewsbury, which was forced to close due to health and safety reasons, has reopened today, Friday.

 

The infant section of the playground was closed on June 1 after a routine check of the site revealed signs of a collapsed drain running from the Quarry Swimming and Fitness Centre, underneath the site.    The junior section of the play area was unaffected.

West Felton celebrates 60 years of local history

Felton is one of the original XI Towns and they supported and added to the Ruyton Local History Exhibitions in the lead up to Charter Day so please go and see their exhibition in the church which illustrates  changes in their village  community over the last 60 years.

                                        ---------------------------------------

Please tell all your friends about our special Diamond Jubilee event and come and enjoy a lovely Shropshire day out,

St Michael’s Church, West Felton

Friday 15th June - 10am to 5pm

Saturday 16th June - 10am to 5pm

Sunday 17th June - 11:30am to 5pm

Church Service  at 6pm

 

60 GLORIOUS YEARS –

a celebration in flowers and Memories

 

An exhibition of memorabilia, photographs, souvenirs,

school craft projects and much more.

A trip down memory lane for some, for others a delightful peep into the recent past in a small Shropshire village.

 The changes over the 60 years are quite remarkable.

        The main London-Holyhead road used to split the village. Articulated lorries thundered through – people hardly mixed with those on the other side of the road, it was too dangerous for the elderly and children to cross.

·       School meals were cooked in the village and the children trooped down a lane that is now almost concealed, to eat their dinner in the Haslehurst Institute – now a house, originally built by the Church as a club to keep the village men out of the numerous pubs.

·       Only one pub left now, plus the Queens Head restaurant, (which used to be a People’s Refreshment House Association temperance hotel!).

·       The first Royal British Legion Harvest Festival to be held in a pub anywhere? – that was in the Fox & Hounds. West Felton – now a row of houses!

·       There were THREE garages – two of them selling petrol, now there are none, the last one disappeared in 2008, now nine family homes on the site.

·       The Montgomery canal at Queens Head had completely disappeared, having been a thriving commercial route until the railway came. Now it is flowing freely again under a ‘new’ road bridge.

·       Who’d have thought? Rednal Airfield, where pilots were trained to fly the iconic Spitfire fighter plane, producing some of the finest air-aces of the era, and where the US Air force landed D-Day wounded personnel for treatment at the Orthopaedic, is now the scene of ‘wars’ with paintball and laser – just for fun. The runway is often a testing ground for air ships and balloons. The giant 'doughnut' that opened the 2010 Commonwealth games in New Delhi was made in Oswestry and tested at Rednal. The airfield is also a thriving industrial estate for small businesses.

The church will be decorated with fabulous flowers

arranged by resident award-winning floral artist.

· Refreshments in the churchyard,

· a ‘treasure hunt’ quiz,

· produce and cakes for sale,

· all the traditional pleasures of a special Shropshire summer day out.

Sunday 6pm: ‘Church Service for everyone’

featuring the Pradoe Singers and the Whittington Choir.

Looking forward to seeing you in West Felton

 Best wishes

Colleen and Des

Weston Lullingfields Local History

The organisers of Weston`s last Last Local Hitory event were very pleasantly surprised that several people attended as a result of reading about it in one of my emails!
                                    THAT`S WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT!!

Here are details of Weston Lullingfields next local history evening

 SATURDAY JUNE 16 AT 7.30

LOCAL HISTORY

WESTON VILLAGE HALL

Following the success of our first Local History evening, we have been very lucky to secure a speaker from the League of Friends group who published the book about the life and Times of Dame Agnes Hunt, “This is my Life”. This will be a very interesting insight into her life and the establishment of a pioneering institution in Baschurch. £3.50 including light refreshments, children free.

More details from 261293.

The story of Dame Agnes Hunt is moving, inspiring and on occasions, hilarious - don`t miss this opportunity to learn more about a great local woman.

Also, put this in your diary

SATURDAY 30 JUNE - 2.00 TO 4.30

Jubilee fun at Shrewsbury Market Hall - Play area closed

This Jubilee weekend  Artist Annaliese Powell, 23, from the Shawbury Village Players, will be at Shrewsbury market on Saturday offering face-painting and temporary tattoos from 10-12pm and nail painting from 1-3pm.

 

As well as face-painting, free drop-in workshop sessions to make the ‘crown jewels’ are being held by Compost Kids throughout the day and there is a chance to win an extra special prize by taking part in a crown treasure hunt which runs from Saturday, until June 9^th.

 

Kate Gittins, site facilities manager at the market said: “We’ve already had such an exciting week with the arrival of the Olympic Torch in Shrewsbury, and our links to one of the torch bearers who works in the market. We’ll be continuing the celebrations over the Jubilee weekend with a number of events and activities so come along and join in the fun!”

The Quarry play area in Shrewsbury will be closed until further notice following a suspected drain collapse.

Councillor Steve Charmley,  said: “Our staff at the Quarry Swimming and Fitness Centre have changed the timing and reduced the volume of water to the drains to try and alleviate the problem. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and we are working closely with the town council and Severn Trent to reopen the play area as soon as possible.”
