Village Hall AGM 
 The Village Hall Management Committee will be holding the AGM on Monday November 3 at 8.00pm in the village hall. Everyone is welcome to attend.

Village Hall Open Meeting - details of this meeting held on September 22 2014 together with outline plans for a new hall can be found on the notice board and on the website here.

Buses through Chearsley - From the beginning of November, Arriva will no longer be responsible for the 110 buses on the route from Thame to Aylesbury through Chearsley. Red Rose Travel of The Blinking Owl, Dinton will be running buses, presumably to the same 2 hourly timetable as before, so apart from different buses, there should be no change to the service. Time will tell if my information is correct.

New Pilates Class in Cuddington
Debbie Corpe, who initiated a Pilates class in the village a few years ago, is now holding a Pilates Barre class in The Bernard Hall, Cuddington every Friday from 9.15am until 10.15am. The class consists of a warm-up, barre section, pilates mat work and stretching, all to music. All you need is a pilates mat and a desire to release your inner ballerina and have some fun! Please call Debbie on 01844 208420 for more information.

Unlock The Box 
This is the new game which has now started on Friday evenings at The Bell. The person who has the winning ticket that evening will win £50 and then has the opportunity to pick the correct key which will unlock the box to win the money. There are 20 keys to choose from. So the game could run and run as did the Joker game with the prize money accumulating each week. £10 will go the charity bottle of the winner’s choice. The draw takes place at 8.30pm and all participants have to be present. Tickets can be bought at The Bell throughout the week. It could be a nice little windfall for Christmas and is a time to meet up with friends at The Bell on Friday nights for a drink or a meal.

Friday Morning Coffee and Cake at The Bell - The Bell will be open from 10.00am until 12.00pm for coffee or tea with a selection of home made cakes.
