The Editor's Letter
Aren’t we lucky to have such a lovely green space right in the centre of the village? Kirton Parish Council will be hosting a Picnic in the Park on Saturday 23rd May. This is a FREE Community event where you can bring your own food and chat with your family, friends and neighbours. Please go along to support this event as they take a great deal of effort to organise and fingers crossed for great weather!
Due to holidays, we will have to bring forward our deadline for the June edition. If you have any contributions, events or letters, please could you send them to me by Friday 8th May at the absolute latest. Many thanks!
My lovely Mum, Jill Lee, will be 80 this month. She may not want that to be publicly known but I have always had a little rebellious streak! We wish her a very Happy Birthday and here are a few things that happened in May 1946!
• First class cricket returned, having been suspended during WWII.
• London Heathrow Airport opened fully
for civilian use.
• Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering
(later renamed Sony) is founded, with about 20 employees.
If you would like to feature as a Meet the Local, please get in touch and we always welcome new contributions. If you have anything you’d like to say, someone you’d like to thank, a poem, a recipe or a puzzle you’d like to share, get in touch! I’m always contactable at Editor@kirtonnews.co.uk.
Take care of yourselves and each other.
