CHETNOLE with
Hamlet, Melbury Bubb & Stockwood
REP: Liz Tebbatt 873140 tebbatt.towers@gmail.com DISTRIBUTOR: Stan Darley
We say farewell and good luck to Nicola Berry who has crossed the border into Devon and moved to Seaton. Nicola and her family have been Chetnole residents for a long time and we’ll really miss them but wish her many years of happiness living by the sea. Covid-19 has put paid to Dorset Art Weeks for 2021 but you can still get some culture by viewing Bee Grant-Peterkin’s online exhibition – see p.50 for details. And don’t forget to take a look at this year’s Flower Show & Fete’s schedule on Instagram, Facebook or our Parish Council website to get ahead with your entries. The Chetnole Chuckers have resumed playing social boules, limited to two separate groups of six players, on Wednesday and Sunday afternoons. Also, read on for how you can join the five new patrons of Wriggle Valley Cricket Club, it won’t be long now before those blissful afternoons watching the match on the playing field will be with us again. The Yetminster road, Chetnole will be closed for essential work on the water supply network from Tues 4th to Fri 7th May inclusive. Access for residents only. Have a great May and enjoy the long weekends it brings. Liz Tebbatt 12
ST PETER'S CHURCH CHETNOLE
CREAM TEAS in the CHURCHYARD (in village hall if wet)
with TEDDY BEAR PARACHUTING
Sunday July 4th from 3.00 to 5.00 p.m. Once again Teddy Bears will be jumping off St. Peter’s church tower. Bring your parachute and teddy bear (or any other soft toy) and have a go! Any size or design will do, provided it fits into the basket for hoisting up the tower. Make sure your Teddy’s name and your family name are clearly marked. Children and adults of all ages welcome. All entrants get a certificate and the slowest descent (that lands in the churchyard!) will win a prize. £1 per jump for church funds.
