MIKE'S pancakes are waiting for you at the Holy Trinity Church Hall next week. It's pancake feast time next Tuesday at 7pm so come along and enjoy a very sociable Shrove Tuesday at your parish church, all the pancakes you can eat for £1.

PRESTWOOD Gardening Club is looking forward to spring and its own bargain garden shop in Greenlands Lane is now open every Sunday from 10am until midday. I have just coughed up my £3 annual subscription and immediately got more than my money back by taking advantage of their discounts. You can call Gerry for more details on 01494 864061 or Paul on 01494 865660.

KEEPING with Prestwood Gardening Club, if you would like to meet up with other members, go along to the village hall next Thursday and enjoy a presentation by naturalist Victor Scott entitled Cape Spring Time. It starts at 8pm.
