A bottle of Australian Shiraz waiting for someone to claim it. The lucky winner dropped £2.00 and 10 raffle tickets though the door at No 1 Chapel End Lane a couple of days before the Fete. Unfortunately the raffle tickets were not the stubs with your name and phone number, but the tickets themselves. So that your tickets could still be entered in the raffle we wrote out 10 fresh tickets and entered them into raffle knowing that the odds were against them being drawn! But. Guess what! They won a bottle of Shiraz – so you are now a lucky winner! Hopefully you know who you are! So, if you would like to contact us we will be pleased to exchange one bottle of Shiraz for your ticket stubs which are probably numbered 0356-0360 or 0411-0415. Please collect soon before we become too tempted by this bottle of wine standing on our kitchen dresser! John Painter

TWO absolutely free family fun days will be run here in the school holidays by Dacorum Borough Council, who have been awarded Lottery funding to put on a series of these events in rural parishes across the borough. A team of playworkers will provide an activity-packed day of arts, crafts, games, sport and leisure for children age 0 to 16. (Under eights need to be accompanied by an adult.) The first is at Long Marston recreation ground on Friday 24th July from 11am to 4pm. The second, at Wilstone recreation ground on Monday 27th July, also from 11 am to 4pm. The impressive climbing wall which proved so popular at Wilstone last year will this year be at Long Marston on 24th July, but not at Wilstone. Children and young people from all the villages are welcome to go to either or both events. Bring your own refreshments nd protection against the sun. No need to book –
just turn up and have fun, says the publicity leaflet.
