A couple of cryptic signs have appeared roughly outside the dress shop. all there is is a green triangle & half a cloud plus the letter C ( sorry wasn't in a position to take a snap). The Cloud? Connectivity? Calming measures? I'm curious.

Friends of Marple Memorial Park have to say a huge thank you to everyone who came along to spend their money at the Handcrafted Christmas Sale in Hawk Green Reading Rooms yesterday, when an amazing total of £573.62 was raised for the park!
We must also thank our stall holders, with special mention for Diane Jackson, Gill Whittaker and Kathryn Procter, who raised £223, £76 and £40 respectively for the park on top of their table fees.
Thanks also to our wonderful volunteers who helped out and the good folk who look after the Reading Rooms, which is a fabulous little venue. They were extremely supportive from start to finish.
Considering this event was organised in just one week it has been an amazing outcome. Look out for a possible repeat next Easter!

Local Issues / Re: Where are our Trains at Rose Hill Station?
« Last post by Belly on December 14, 2021, 09:17:00 AM »We should also look to support this.
The Rose Hill train service was, until recently, a real success story. A classic case of 'improve service, attract more customers'.
The current timetable is a retrograde step and something that really shouldn't be happening in a COP26 world. We should be encouraging more use of rail, not less (Covid notwithstanding).
