Domestic & Dear Bruno
I note with interest the survey on a bus shelter outside the
Commercial Specialised Security tearoom, have the powers that be ever been on a bus?
Manufacturing Ltd The existing shelter opposite the Stag is never swept out,
A few Examples: the ageing outside wood seats are always soaking wet so
Ornate Gates you are unable to sit down, the other shelter opposite Mill
Lane is in a similar state with disgusting graffiti on the
Railings/Fencing wall that has been there for years and no seat inside.
I sympathise with the Tea Room and agree that the view
Shutters of the green would be rather spoilt from their aspect.
Instead of all the trivia of picket fences, flower signs and
Radio Controlled shelters, maybe get down to some important issues like
more dog poo bins (twice recently I saw someone drop
Systems their poo bags down a drain in the village).
Perhaps lean on the Co-op to tidy up the side of their
01371 874 600 premises. And most important of all think of an alternative
to the 30 mph signs, people still race through our village
Unit 3 Station Yard Industrial Estate, Great Dunmow, Essex at an alarming rate.

www.grillesandgates.com Yours Sincerely
Steven Amery
JLY Bookkeeping Services
Hello Steven
Call Jaime Yardley AICB (Comp) The reason the bus shelter question came up was
because Essex Count y Council is offering grants for
ICB Certificated & Sage Qualified - Self-Employed, bus shelters hence the question from the parish
Council , "do we need one?"
Sole Traders & Small Businesses - VAT Returns When the 30mph signs were put up Highways were
supposed to also install engineering measures

machinery, the task that they are carrying out today is
the same task that is recorded to have been carried out
here for hundreds of years. Coppices are important
not only as a way of extracting wood but also for
providing a significant habitat for insects and
woodland plants. The fencing off of recently coppiced
areas is essential to ensuring that the coppiced trees
successfully grow back without being nibbled away
by cattle. As an extra precaution we also build round
the coppice stools to stop the deer from being able to
reach them. For those of you interested in finding out
more then come along to our Coppicing in Action
Walk in Mid March.
Until the next issue I look forward to meeting you in
the coming months. As the new Community Warden
you are likely to find me near the Lake so come and
say hello and ask me about what is going on in

Recently, in the National Press, Philip Eden, the weather

was widely believed

that it was not possible

to have more than 100

inches of rain outside

the Tropics.Later,

records showed that

even more rainfall fell Sprinkling Tarn
on the north-facing

slope of the Scafell massif, also in Cumbria, with an

annual average of 185 inches at "Sprinkling Tarn". I

think the word of extremes, associated with Hatfield

Heath rainfall is really inappropiariate, when comparing

these Cumbrian figures. Just to remind you , that our

annual figure is only 26.09 inches.

HEATH IN VALENTINE’S MASSACRE!

It may have been two days premature, but Hatfield Hath
dished out their very own massacre on the week of
Valentine’s Day. Following their 11-1 mauling of Take-
ley, the league leaders demolished local rivals Little Hal-
lingbury 12-2 on home soil.

The visitors had managed to keep themselves in the
game during the first half having initially fallen 2-0 be-
hind, but Heath were out of sight by the end of the sec-
ond period.

Hallingbury pulled the score back to 2-1 in the game on
February 12, and after conceding a further two goals in
the first half, they scored again to make it 4-2 going in at
the break.

But after half-time, Hatfield Heath let rip, with the game
ending 12-2 to the home side. This time, it was Ewan
Rockell’s turn to score four, with Harry Feest firing in a
treble. Other goals came from James Baughurst, Harry
Bovington (2) and Rory Marrow (2).

UGANDA

Emerging from the devastation of civil war in the 1970s

and 1980s, Uganda has made significant steps in

economic and social

development, yet still faces major

challenges. Ugandan families and

communities struggle to access

healthcare, education and other

basic services and young children

often suffer disproportionately.

While the country has won praise for its fight against

HIV/AIDS, the epidemic has nonetheless been

devastating — Uganda has the highest proportion of

children orphaned by HIV/AIDS

worldwide.

A conflict in northern Uganda, now in

than 1.8 million people and has
