LIFE
So much going on around us
Posh jumble in Cotterstock, jazz in Barnwell and a local hero running about
Spring is in the air and there is so much to see and do in this fabulous area of ours. Life is finally starting to feel something like the ‘old normal’ again – and it’s a great feeling!
Hoorah! Our lovely Joe Croser is back from his editorial break with an interesting article about Oundle at War. Do you know where the town’s wartime gas decontamination centre was and what is it now? (page 10).
Who doesn’t love getting a good deal? Especially when it’s on your doorstep! Pop along to Cotterstock and grab a ‘posh’ bargain at their jumble sale – something for everyone (page 6).
If jazz is music to your ears, then you should
head to Barnwell Church where the Oundle School Jazz Orchestra will be raising the roof with their amazing sound (page 8).
We found another worthy local hero in the form of Ian Gow. Just when we thought we’d exposed every pandemic legend, we receive the nicest email nomination, so we had to bring the feature back, just for Ian (page 24).
...and we finish off this issue with the most amazing looking cheesecake recipe from our friends at Aga (page 30).
We are your local friendly vets, putting pets and their owners at the heart of our practice.
