From Richard Holness: Boilerjuice won the May fill up for 17 households with a price of 45.39 ppl + VAT. Richard and his wife are moving to St Ives in mid July. This means that, unless somebody volunteers to take over from him, the May order will be the last one for the West Wratting Syndicate. “It really is pretty simple to manage with orders in Jan, Mar, May, July, Sept and Oct, taking about 3 to 4 hours in total each time – and there’s the bonus of collecting the ‘phone orders from the pub!” Should you like to take over operating the WW Oil Syndicate, please contact Richard by emailing richardholness023@btinternet.com or ‘phoning 290404.

Residents of West Wratting and the Parish Council would like to improve / upgrade the playground here in West Wratting. To start with the existing equipment and surface could do with a good clean, but eventually we would like to replace the old play equipment with new.   A Facebook page has been created to share ideas and opinions on the type of play equipment users would like, plus any ideas for funding the project. https://www.facebook.com/WestWrattingPlaygroundImprovement/ Please ‘like’ and share this page with other people in the area who may be interested. 
Your playground ideas and feedback can also be shared at the Saturday morning café or sent via email to louise@chandler1.co.uk At the next Saturday morning café, on 6 April, we plan to show the ideas presented to us by two playground companies. Please come and have a look if you have time.
