FOXLEY VILLAGE APPRAISAL
The recent questionnaire
sent to all the households in Foxley has now been returned in fairly reasonable
numbers. The return being more than half made it possible for the
Steering Committee to analyse, to collate, and to prioritise the various
wishes and concerns of the residents of all ages.
These findings will be on
display in the village hall on Thursday 13th March 2003 between the hours
of 2---4 pm and 7---9 pm. The Steering Committee will be available
at both sessions for questions and comments. Remember---What is considered
important for the village, and what is not, rests finally with the residents!

ALLSAINTS CHURCH,
BAWDESWELL
50th Anniversary of the
church
The rebuilding of Bawdeswell
church, after the War damage, started in the Spring of 1953.
The Friends of the Church
are organising a celebration on the evening of Saturday 10th May.
There will be an exhibition of photographs and supper will be served with
wine.
John Timpson, the
well known broadcaster and writer, was a young reporter on the Dereham
& Fakenham Times in 1953 and it was he who reported on the event for
the local newspapers. He has very kindly agreed to come and talk
to us and tell us about his life from “Bawdeswell to the BBC and
back again”. He had a varied and most interesting career and with
his great sense of humour has many stories to tell.
It will be an evening not
to miss!
Another highlight not to
miss will be the planned
Barn Dance/Ceilidh
at Harvest Time. The Friends of the Church have booked the very popular
Norfolk Wherries for 27th September. The band has a caller
and a good repertoir of country dances, making sure that nobody is left
out. A rustic atmosphere is planned, with food and beer and cider.
On the weekend of 13th
– 14th December
a Christmas Tree
Festival and Concert/Entertainment in the church is planned.
Eight to ten trees will be provided by sponsors and groups/clubs in the
village will be asked to decorate one of them for the Festival. On
the Saturday evening there will be entertainment in the church, and a Festival
Service at 4pm on the Sunday afternoon.
The Friends of Bawdeswell
Church 100 Club still has some tickets to sell. They work out
only £2 a month and the Quarterly prizes start at £100 plus
many more. It’s all in a good cause.
Contact (01362) 688499
or 688512, evenings.
