The YRIWG gets off to a good start
Well, the G7 is over, the good weather has arrived and numerous events are on the horizon for us to enjoy. I am not a betting man; however, by the time you read this I expect the Prime Minister has announced an amended date for fully opening the economy to July. I am hoping that the good people of Northern Ireland can enjoy a BBQ, relishing the delights of a good British sausage.
I would like to thank the small team overseeing the refurbishment of the Hamlet children’s play area. Paul Hollick has organised a crowd funding page for
people of the village and further afield to support this initiative. The link is at: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/playarea-renovation. The page closes around 8 July; however, any queries contact Paul Hollick or see the Facebook page. Yetminster is a village of over 1300 residents and there is enormous potential to make this village outstanding (it is already a fantastic place to live), as there are so many untapped skills and wonderful people with great ideas to promote the village. I sometimes think we operate as three separate villages, top, middle and bottom. I would like to promote (and slightly amend) JFK’s statement, “Ask not what your village can do for you and ask what can you do for your village”. Get involved. Soap box moment over. The Yetminster and Ryme Walking Group seems to be going from strength to strength, they will have completed their second ramble, three miles, well done. 35
