Looking for something more this Christmas?



The decorations light up the cold dark nights, trees twinkle through the windows, busy people rushing around all a mad rush for Christmas and the enjoyment of the festive cheer...
But is something missing? Do you feel like you want a little extra this year? Why not think of the "reason for the season" and pop into a local church to share in the story of Jesus' arrival in the form of a helpless babe...


What's available for us this Christmas?

Walk cancelled

Sorry all, but the wetness of the weather today has meant that we have decided to cancel the walk. It has been wet for so long that it probably would not be much fun on the walk. Watch this space for the first walk of 2008.

Call us on Billinghay 861107 if you want to know more, in general, about the whole walk thing. Have a happy afternoon.
