Zoe Simmonds is asking for help finding her cat which went missing while she was staying with friends in Lodge Hill. Zoe does not live in the village so definitely needs our help in finding the cat. She has put posters up and asks if we could all keep an eye out.

The cat is a small tabby with white paws.

Zoe is not on email but her phone is 07927 971936.

Catherine Mowat runs a monthly singing session in Wells and thought it might interest Westbury residents. She writes...

We learn and sing a variety of different songs in lovely harmony from round the World, all taught by ear, and unaccompanied. We also play with our voices, creating our own music in the moment. Everyone is welcome, whatever their musical experience!

First Saturday each month, from Jan 7th 2012 onwards, 10am - 1pm in the Seager Hall, Union Street, central Wells. £10.

The dates for 2012 (all on a Saturday) are: 7 Jan, 4 Feb, 3 Mar, 12 April (to avoid Easter), 5 May, 2 June, 1 July, 5 Aug, 2 Sep, 6 Oct, 3 Nov, 1 Dec.

St Lawrence's Primary School's would love the whole village to join them for "Hunger Lunch" (a basic meal of bread, cheese and delicious homemade soup) to raise awareness of world hunger.

Alongside lunch will be displays, games, a raffle, stalls and a quiz, which the children have worked hard to put together. Come and share what they have learned about the people of Uganda, raise some money and have lots of fun!

Enter the raffle to win a lunch kindly donated by our local pub The Westbury Inn .

NEW MOBILE LIBRARY SERVICE

Somerset County Library has announced a new schedule of mobile library stops.

Starting on Monday 17 May, the mobile library will visit

The Square from 12.15 to  12.30pm  every third Monday.

Dates for 2010 are 17 May, 7 June, 28 June, 19 July, 9 August, 20 September, 11 October, 1 November, 22 November and 13 December.

The mobile library will continue to call at Stoneleigh from 10.40 to 10.55am on the above dates.

On 12 January the Parish Council will decide how to spend our winnings of £500. The overall feeling is that it should be something that is permanent and of value to the community. If you have any thoughts on this, please contact Barry Lane on 01749 870457 or  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

Now the clocks have changed and it apparently gets darker earlier we have decided to move choir practice forward half an hour to start at 6.00pm on Friday.                                        

Should anyone reading this fancy joining us, perhaps with a view to learning some Christmas music, please do, we would give you a warm welcome.
