Alderton Village Newsletter - February 2024

​Note from Editor:
I am rewriting this having lost the whole thing after spending an afternoon on it.  Yes, there is, it appears, a limit to my technology skills! Thankfully it gives people a little more time to add a contribution. The forecast for February seems reasonably mild at the moment….not too much ice hopefully.  I gather we have lambs in the fields by the village. What a wonderful nod to Spring coming already.    

However, I’ve had a request to mention PLEASE wear something hi viz when out at dusk/night especially where there is no pavement as on Dibden Lane.
