So here we are again and, as I write this, we are hopefully slowly coming out of our second lockdown. We were just about seeing green shoots appear after the first set of restrictions – with the school open under challenging conditions, the Gallery Cafe operating, the pub thriving and the SPAR shop continuing to offer its comforting support to the community by just being there – when wallop, up pops the lockdown, announced at great speed over a weekend. Carole and Jim were particularly devasted by the second lockdown and were looking forward to opening the White Hart with a new tenant lined up. Hopefully, this can still take place after 2 December. 38

In these difficult times it is important to remember that we are lucky to live in such a vibrant and wonderful village and if there was ever a time to say thank you, and to support local businesses, this is it: they and indeed all those who live in the village provide the very heartbeat of Yetminster. It would also be remiss of me, on your behalf, not to give a big shout out and thanks to the Health Centre and their staff and all those who work in the pharmacy. They continue stoically to provide caring health care under difficult conditions. The additional effort, as appears likely, to administer a possible Covid-19 vaccine will only place more pressure on them.
