Hi all, a couple of updates for this week -

• Please click here to read about a Trading Standards scam relating to computer problems. At least one person on the estate has been contacted like this so be aware that they may call and pose as Microsoft support.
• I've had about 30 donations from residents to contribute to the grit bin for our estate. Thanks to those of you who have made a donation and dropped it off at my house. I still don't have enough to buy the bin so if you want to make a donation please can you put £2 in an envelope (write your name, address and email on it please) and drop it off at number 39 Jubilee Way.
• The Village Festivities Group (the people who organise the Christmas Fair in December) are holding a car-boot-sale fund raiser at Bishop Rawstorne on Sunday 11th September. A pitch costs £10 for traders and there is free parking if you want to go down and pick up a bargain!  You can read more about it here. And, while you're on their site they have details of the Elvis night on October 8th at the Social Club on Westhead Road. Tickets cost just £10 and there is a hot pot supper, disco and quiz too.  You may be surprised to know it cost over £4000 to run the event last year and all of this was raised by the volunteer committee.  Both of the events will help raise funds to pay for this year's event and ensure it can continue to take place.
