As I write this, the sun is streaming through the window.  Do we dare hope that spring has sprung? The daffodils are out in the garden at our café and, hopefully, it’ll be warm enough soon for customers to make use of our outdoor area when they visit us.

My name is Samantha Shields, I am the landlady of The Railway Arms. Derek Ward from O Hairdressing Salon and I got together and launched an Easter Egg Appeal for the poorly children in the Leicester Royal Infirmary.

Kibworth Harcourt Windmill Update - March 2022

My iPhone names it Mothers’ Day, but my WH Smith diary keeps the traditional English name of Mothering Sunday. Why the two titles? A clue, Mothers’ Day is celebrated in the USA on the second Sunday (why a Sunday?) in May but it was only introduced recently, in 1949. Is this another import from the USA, which partly explains its popularity in England in recent years, albeit at a different time to the USA?

A thank you from us!
