• Mollington and Little Bourton now served frequently by Stagecoach service 77A, six days per week
• Cropredy served by routes 497 and 501 on Thursdays and Saturdays • Claydon served by route 497 on Thursdays
• R indicates that the service operates to these points on request only
Particular questions related to service D:
• Is there enough time in Banbury for each service?
• What days of the week should this service run, bearing in mind the existing provision for Cropredy and Claydon?
• Is a minibus (16 seats) likely to be sufficient?
• Is there likely to be sufficient demand for this service?
Save the date for the Red Lion Harvest Auction: Friday 13th October
All proceeds to charity.
There will also be a Harvest Festival Service in St Etheldreda’s Church on Sunday 1st October.
An enormous thank you to everyone who helped to make Horley’s Progressive Dinner such a success.
£1485.50 was raised for the church which is hugely appreciated and the camaraderie and community spirit the evening engenders cannot be underestimated.
Our hosts all surpassed themselves, we know how much planning and hard work it takes and as always, we simply couldn’t have done it without you.
Thank you so much to Dave and Natasha for allowing us to descend ‘en masse‘ and then disappear into the night only to return slightly less coherently later in the night.
We will be deciding on next year’s date quite shortly and will let you know as soon as it’s confirmed. We have already had offers to host next year which is great.
With many, many thanks to everyone for such a wonderful evening from all the Progressive Dinner team.
We now have our full number of hosts for the Progressive Dinner on 2nd September.
This means we a have a couple of spare places for anyone who would like to come as a guest.
Please contact Helen Ellis on helenellis101@gmail.com
Due to a fantastic response to our forthcoming Progressive Dinner on 2nd September we are looking for another host.
Even if you haven’t hosted before we will happily guide you through the process and it really doesn’t need to be ‘Cordon Bleu’ cooking.
Please contact Helen Ellis on helenellis101@gmail.com
Horley’s famous Progressive Dinner date has been set for 2nd September.
A great opportunity to mingle with your fellow villagers and have what is always a really good night out.
Full details to follow soon.
The Parish Council is clearly aware that the street-lamp outside the Red Lion Pub is not working – now for 4 months! David Beck, Parish Clerk says:
‘I have regularly contacted Oxfordshire County Council on this matter and have received various replies, including being told three times the problem was fixed!!
Having recently received a communication from OCC that the ‘file was closed’, I contacted them again.
This is the latest response I have just received..
There is an electricity supply fault at this street light and has been sent to the electricity company for repair, it depends on workload as to how long it takes but is in hand to be rectified.
State changed to: In progress.’
