Requests...
From Kate Bedwell...

In the usual twist of unexpected fate - it seems that after finding our perfect house there is now the possibility that we may be moved to Australia for work purposes for up to 2 years.

Is anyone aware of anyone that may be interested to in renting a large 3 bedroom house in the centre of the village. It has a HUGE garden as well - but we would be happy to ensure that we get a gardener to help keep on top of it!

Please feel free to call us on 810954 to discuss further.

Child Care needed...

My two daughters Renace and Vanessa attend Cranham School and are in Year 6 and Year 2 respectively. I have recently been offered a new job starting in October, which will mean that I will have to work 9am - 5pm, three days a week. I live in Gloucester and I am having trouble finding any after school care that can collect from Cranham School.

I was therefore, wondering if anyone at the school or in the village may be able to assist me? I would either need someone to give them both a lift into Gloucester where a family member could meet them or someone to look after them until I finish work. I would preferably like to be referred to someone that is ofsted registered.
If you or you know of anyone who may be able to help. Please contact Jonelle, via the school - Tel: 812660

The Detail...
Welcome to Cranham.net's Friday email...

Hello,

Welcome to the second 'BIGGER' Cranham.net email...

I have started to receive lots of bits and pieces from lots of people - which is great - thank you - the more I receive the better this is...

If I have missed something or have anything you think is of interest please let me know.

Thank you from the Claptons...

I would very much like to thank the village for all of their suport during the period of Barb's illness and sudden death, your words and thoughts have brought trememdous strength to both myself and to Ian, Nicki, Jill and Jon.

The show of support at Barb's memorial service showed us just how many lives Barb had touched and this was also a great boost to all of us, this was then followed by the village feeding and watering what appeared to be the 40,000 back here at the Scout cenre, the seemingly endless queue where no one missed out.

When talking to some of you who patiently waited in the rain to be served with your tea, sandwich and cake a couple of words stick in my mind - "Thats Cranham" - how true that is, Cranham always shows its friendsihp and support especially when the chips are down and to all those who are suffering a loss of a loved one. I can only say what a pleasure it is to live in a village called Cranham.

Thank you all. Ken, Ian, Nicki, Jill and Jon

Baby Adder found on Janet Whitton's drive this week... Thank you Janet

The adder is the only poisonous snake native to Britain. Adders have the most highly developed poison injecting mechanism of all snakes, but they are not aggressive animals.

Adders will only use their poison as a last means of defence, usually if caught or trodden on. No one has died from adder bite in Britain for over 20 years. With proper treatment, the worst effects are nausea and drowsiness, followed by severe swelling and bruising in the area of the bite.

Most people who are bitten were handling the snake. Treat adders with respect and leave them alone.

Mark and Philippa bought the flight from a charity auction. They thought Harold was a suitable person to use it.
