Nativity Parish Council Play

No that should have read Nativity Play and Parish Council....Randwick School had their Christmas Nativity Play (see photo) - "The Whoopsy-daisy Angel" - not sure if I spelt that right but it was a charming, entertaining and even toe-tapping and wet-eye making performance mainly from the Reception and Year One's - some brilliant dancing snowflakes, great angels and a star performance by a boy in year one as the Whoopsy-daisy angel - other years also did readings and singing - the choir also - infact a great evening that left enough time to get to Whitshill and Randwick Parish meeting...

The minutes will soon be on the website - see under 'links' opposite on this Blog - but as usual lots talked about from siting the interactive speed sign to the Family Boxing Day Whiteshill walk - some 40 people setting off from the playing field at 10.30 each Boxing Day for a 4 mile walk and pub. Plus the 20 mph latest (see elsewhere on this Blog), the walking bus proposals for Whiteshill School, getting kerbs dropped for disabled people, signing the petition re the closure of Gloucester Mail centre (see elsewhere a Blog entry and interesting discussion anout this), news that the Village Sprng failed it's fit-to-drink test, the three solid oak benches that have been ordered - people needed to dig holes - always amazes me how hard many Parish councillors work for the community - instead of upping the precept they get out there themselves, paint varnish on the noticeboards, dig holes etc.

Anyhow we finished at 9.30 for Christmas drinks - and serious nibbles - all very nice and a chance to meet the new Clerk, Julie Masters who takes over from Wendy Maddison - looked like it could be very hard to replace Wendy's excellent service but if this first meeting is anything to go by I need not have worried - Julie looks set to be very efficient, helpful and all good things!

Anyhow it is too late again to write more....
