Hello! What great news to end the year with - a brilliant new website! Well done to Simon for his hard work in designing it - it will be a credit to the village I’m sure.

This is my last issue as editor, and I would like to take a bit of space to thank everyone who has contributed to the issues I’ve edited. Particularly the Jewells, who have

been brilliantly supportive. I’ve had great fun creating it and am sure your new editor - Annette Spurrell - will enjoy making the Chimes her own, as I did. A warm

welcome to Annette, and please be sure to email all your submissions to her from now on. All details inside as usual.

Enjoy the Christmas edition and have a wonderful festive season!
