Reports that two of the three roads out of the village have been blocked by fallen trees. Photos taken at 5:30pm

As much as we don’t like being closed, as much as we are always by your side not only with our services but also helping everyone, today Teles Patisserie has to follow the guidelines and be closed for everyone’s safety.

Please stay safe & hopefully tomorrow is a better day.

We are collecting old bras for Africa in celebration of International Women’s Day on 5th March.

The advertised event is at Swainsthorpe Church, but you can pass any bras that you can afford to give(!) to Alexandra Evans, Ferry Road 538234.

Many thanks in anticipation of your support…..!

Swainsthorpe Community Charity Trust – Charity Number 287784

Although we planted most of the hedging plants allocated to the orchard before Christmas, we still have a few more to plant out. Anyone who’d like to join us at the orchard on Sunday February 27 between 2 and 4 pm will be welcome. Gardening gloves and a fork/spade would be useful.

Someone has admitted responsibility and due process is being followed.

Be a community hero and help identify the driver of a (silver/grey) Toyota who crashed into a parked Nissan car at Ferry Corner this morning, but failed to stop.

Sadly the likely cost of repairs will probably exceed the value of the Nissan meaning it will have to be scrapped.

Please contact Norfolk Police on 111 if you have any information. We will advise the Police Incident Number when it is assigned; likely to be tomorrow.

Well, well, well it’s almost the most romantic day of the year so we have prepared a very special Sunday.

Tomorrow there will be loads available from gift boxes (made to your choice), love hampers and Portuguese wine – last day available tomorrow (from red, vinho verde or rose).

Have an excellent Sunday 💕💕
