This is an extension of the work Anglian Water was doing earlier this week. The usual detours will apply, but you can find out more here.
Another road closure on Poplars Lane; Monday 1 June until Friday 12 June
Has your cat gone AWOL?
I recently received this message from a Holcot resident:
“I have a stray cat in my garden. She is a young tabby who was extremely hungry and arrived on Sunday evening (24 May). She appears well looked after, so does she belong to anybody in the village?
She is currently making herself very comfy in my garden!”
If anyone knows where this lovely little lady normally resides, please contact Kim by email at kimmabbutt@hotmail.co.uk
URGENT UPDATE (due to editor’s frazzled brain cells…)
Road closure between Holcot crossroads and Back Lane; Wednesday 27 May through to (possibly) Monday 1 JUNE (not, as in previous post, ‘July’!).
I’ve had a chat to the team who are working on site and they tell me that the pipe-laying work is meant to be finished by end-of-play on Friday 29 May (NOT 31 May). If not, it will overlap into Monday 1 June (NOT Monday 1 July).
[I was telling someone the other day “I have never kept a diary; I’m just not a diary person.” This chaos is what results… – really sorry, guys.] :0(
SAVE THE DATE: Saturday, 6 June 2026; 2.00pm
Come and join Martin and Hayley to help celebrate their 10 years at The White Swan.
There’ll be live music from three bands: Brighton Riot; Barn Lane; and HOBO – alongside hot food and cool drinks. So plenty of opportunity then for Bacchanalian revelry and drunken debauchery (well, you gotta live in hope).
The celebrations will start at 2.00pm-ish and end sometime before Sunday…
More details to follow soon.
