The Editor's Letter
Well, if you can’t find an event to pique your interest in this issue, my name’s not Rachael! There is something for everyone this month, from live music at the Town Hall to a Rummikub tournament at St Peter and St Pauls church! Thank you to everyone who has sent these through to us.
I’ve now been Editor of Kirton News for over 8 years and it’s something I’m very proud of. I hope that you all find it useful, sometimes entertaining and representative of our whole community. But of course, it’s only as good as you make it. I would really appreciate more contributions, and we are always looking for businesses to take part in our Meet the Locals feature every month. This is completely FREE publicity, delivered to over 2,600 homes and shops in the village. Our advertising rates have remained largely unchanged since my time as Editor so do get in touch if you’re interested in a regular spot!
Thanks so much for the adorable front cover photograph, taken by Zoe Decesare. We have precious little time to spend with family, especially if we’re working in the week so it’s important to carve out some time, away from the TV and the phones to do something a bit simpler. Here are a few easy ideas!
• Slow village walk with no destination — just wander and notice things you normally ignore in Kirton!
• Sit outside after dark with blankets. Look for stars, satellites, bats, owls.
• Family litter pick walk. Surprisingly satisfying and gives the walk a purpose!
Take care of yourselves.
