Strange bird thing in Brownhill House Garden - please collect if it is yours
Dear Blogger
We have a stray `animal` in Brownhill House Garden -
Bigger than a pheasant, makes a squeaky noise not at all like a duck, swan, chicken, goose,
Has a white backside/wing
S`pose it could be a young Christmas Dinner?
If anyone recognises this thing, please come and collect.

Parcel for Daniel Wardel
Dear Blogger
We have a parcel left here for Daniel Wardel, Brownhill House - but there is not Daniel Wardel here.
Please remember, there are 35 of us on the Brownhill with the same post code so it is very important that you ensure your house name is on your order.
WE are at home now but will be out for much of tomorrow, Wednesday.

Details of great walks with Oswestry Ramblers
Dear Blogger
Message from Diane Gray <dianeegray@gmail.com> forwarded by Ingrid Knowles, Oswestry Net
Oswestry Ramblers has over 180 members and we offer a varied programme of great walks. We usually walk twice a week, on Thursdays and Sundays. We are a friendly group and like to chat as we walk. There are usually about 10-20 people on our walks. New adult members of all ages are very welcome, you don't have to join immediately but can come as a guest on three walks to try us out.
Some walks are close to Oswestry and others further afield in Shropshire, north and mid Wales, Cheshire and sometimes on the coast. We enjoy exploring villages, woodlands, valleys, and local meres and mosses, as well as the Welsh and Shropshire hills. We also organise social events, group holidays and help maintain and improve nearby footpaths.
Here are details of our upcoming walks, along with links to the Ramblers website where full details of all our walks are available.
Thursday 4 December
Non-members welcome
A 6.5-mile moderate walk from Cockshutt Village Hall. We will head via lanes, tracks, bridleways and fields towards Loppington Grade I listed church, this will be our lunch stop. From here we complete the circular walk through Woodgate Brown Heath and English Frankton back to Cockshutt. Please bring refreshments for two stops: lunch and coffee. For full details see https://www.ramblers.org.uk/go-walking/group-walks/loppington-loop
Sunday 7 December
Non-members welcome
A 6-mile leisurely walk from Merrington travelling through lanes, fields and tracks heading towards Myddle. Some climbing but nothing too arduous. Maybe muddy in places but the sandstone area makes it easier to drain. Coffee and lunch stops, bring your own refreshments. For full details please see https://www.ramblers.org.uk/.../merrington-green-myddle
Sunday 14 December
Non-members welcome
A 7-mile leisurely walk exploring the wide open spaces of Fenn's, Whixall and Bettisfield Mosses National Nature Reserve, on both sides of the border. Our route will be flat and is likely to be squelchy in some places, waterproof boots recommended. From Morris' bridge we will cross Whixall and Fenn's mosses on the trails and visit the viewing tower. Then we will join the old tramway to Bettisfield, circumnavigate Bettisfield Moss and return via a short section of the Ellesmere canal (Prees branch). Please bring your own refreshments for coffee break and lunch. For full details see https://www.ramblers.org.uk/.../fenns-whixall-and...
Thursday 18 December
Non-members welcome
A 6-mile leisurely, relatively level circular walk from Ruyton XI Towns along field footpaths and some quiet country lanes to the churches of Little Ness and Great Ness, finishing near the church in Ruyton XI Towns, all of which should be decorated ready for Christmas. There will be a stop for coffee and another for lunch, please bring your own refreshments. For full details see https://www.ramblers.org.uk/.../three-churches-round-cliffe
Sunday 21 December
Non-members welcome
A 6-mile moderate walk from Powis Castle to the canal, along towpaths and back up through the Powis estate. We should be back in time to take a look at the festive decorations inside the castle. Remember to bring your National Trust card if you are a member. Bring refreshments for coffee and lunch stops. For full details please see https://www.ramblers.org.uk/go-walking/group-walks/christmas-powis-castle-0
