There was a wedding today at St. John the Baptist Church, North Luffenham, and the flowers. all white, are still in place. There is no service tomorrow and the church is open: you are welcome to visit and enjoy.
Thank you very much to all villagers who have completed the Village Plan Questionnaire (paper copy or the on line version). There has been a very good response from across the village and this will enable a valid assessment of how the residents of North Luffenham feel about the present state of the village and thoughts and ideas about future developments.
If for some reason your questionnaire was not collected, or you haven’t had time to fill it in, then completed copies can be delivered to The Fox, or completed on line. If another copy is required then they can be obtained from The Fox.
AND there is still a chance to WIN A PRIZE: a two course meal for two with a bottle of house wine at The Fox.
Closing date for questionnaires to be returned is the 22nd May.

Our next meeting is this Thursday 13th April @7.30pm in the Community Centre, when we welcome Dr Andrew Ward with his talk on ‘Plants that Excite’ (A personal selection, mainly of herbaceous perennial plants – these are a mixture of unusual varieties of more common plants and some rarer ones which are just as “growable”.)
Andrew set up his nursery at Norwell near Newark over 22 years ago and specialises in choice and unusual herbaceous perennials and alpines. The nursery is based around a one acre plantsman’s garden which holds over 2,000 different species. Andrew is a well known and respected speaker to the Hardy Plant Society and many other gardening groups, and he really knows his stuff! Well worth listening to….and he provides a list of all the plants illustrated in his talk so you don’t have to write it all down yourself!
Guests welcome – £2 with tea/coffee/biscuits beforehand and a raffle. Don’t forget to bring along any spare seeds or plants you have yourself to sell too.
We are receiving reports of low water pressure or no supply in the L E 15 North Luffenham area, this has been caused by a burst water main. We aim to fix the problem by 6 P M. Your water supply will then gradually return to normal.
Sometimes the water may be slightly discoloured after the supply is restored. Running the cold tap gently should clear this. Sorry for any problems this has caused.
More info can be found at www.stwater.co.uk/in-my-area or Water Supply Interruptions in North Luffenham.

Hi
Just heard on Rutland Radio that a tree is blocking the Fosters Bridge Road
#RutlandRadio
A parishioner has reported that a tree has fallen and is completely blocking the road out of North Luffenham just before the Pilton Road crossroad.
Another tree is reported to be down near Glaston
Rutland County Council have been alerted
From Paul Cummings, PC Chairman
It has recently been reported to the Parish Council that an elderly resident slipped on ‘Dog Mess’ on the oval last week and as a result suffered an injury. All dog owners are requested to ensure that their dogs are kept under control and that they clear up after their dogs at all times.
If you have….and your family and friends have seen them all before….
…why not let local folk have a look too.
There is a Display board at the School – for anyone to show off their pictures.
They do not have to be certain themes, nor a certain size – its up to you to choose the ones you think we would like to see. So come on – pull out those albums and drawers, go into attics and garages…..
for more details, or to join in – phone 01780 720374 or email Pam at pam1plant@gmail.com
Listed below is the approved Minutes of the Parish Council (Trust) meeting for 5th December 2016, which replace the watermarked ‘draft’ versions of the same date.
