The Editor's Letter
A very Happy Easter to you all from Kirton News. If you’re looking for something to do with younger family members during the week leading up to Easter, look no further than St Peter & St Paul’s church! The Big Easter Egg Hunt is on from 28th March to 5th April and is open for children up to and including 11 years of age. Find the Easter Egg shapes with pictures, hidden around the church and in the windows of our local shops and businesses to win a prize! Pick up an entry form (with instructions) from St Peter & St Paul’s Church, Paula’s Gifts and the Scout Shop in the village. Entry fee is £1. The winner will be announced on the 6th April at the church.
I don’t know if you have any family traditions at this time of year – when do you give out the chocolate? Is it first thing on Good Friday or do you wait until Easter Sunday? Do you always have fish & chips on Good Friday? And I can’t ever remember that old wives tale about not hanging your washing out, is that Good Friday too? If I don’t have to wash clothes and eat fish & chips on the same day, I’m all for it!
I do have to make a very short but well-meant disclaimer. Please ensure you check your contributions before sending these through to me for print. We do not have the capacity to check every article or letter. Please also check that if names are mentioned in your article or letter, you have checked with that person beforehand. Thank you.
If you have always had a dream of seeing your name in print, or even having a regular column, please get in touch, I’m all ears! I’m always contactable at Editor@kirtonnews.co.uk. We also have very competitive advertising rates (please look at our website for further information).
Take care of yourselves and each other, and remember, when you eat chocolate over the Easter period the calories don’t count.
