We're back!!

 

Residents may have noticed an unusual stillness in the village this week.

Following Mr Humphrey Bellweather’s educational excursion to Leamington Spa, the village is currently unoccupied.

Mrs Nugget locked the hall and accidentally took the key with her.

The Reverend Pottle boarded the minibus under the impression that Leamington was near Jerusalem.

Sharon joined for the snacks.

Mr Percival Trotter came only because he believed there would be a functioning steam engine.

The Women’s Institute came to ensure Mr Bellweather’s historical claims were properly sourced.

Even Miss Daffodil Pruett’s seventeen cats appear to have gone.

The only remaining inhabitant is Jimmy Nobbs, who declined to attend on the grounds that “spa water is just rain with ideas above its station.”

He has since reported feeling lonely and has been observed talking to a scarecrow.

Normal village activity is expected to resume once the minibus returns, assuming Mr Bellweather’s colour-coded itinerary allows sufficient time for finding the car park and no one has to rush to the toilet.
