Village News – October 2015

Moving on …

Twenty five years ago we moved into South Street in Kingston. Towards the end of the road was Aeolia House. At the time, we knew no one in the village. A few days later, there was a tap on our door and Cynthia asked if we would like to join in the Village Christmas Party. We were of course delighted to accept this introduction to the village. As the years rolled by we got used to a tap on our door, our two dogs getting very excited and a visit from Peter. He would call in frequently on his way to visit others, to work at the church on various projects, and perhaps just have a cup of tea. Cynthia would sometimes come with him and we would put the world to rights between us.

The Village Fete, Harvest Supper and Christmas Party would have been poorer without their help and loyalty. As well as storing a lot of the equipment. Chairs and tables etc. they were always there doing their bit.

These loyal Kingston Villagers have now decided the time has come for them to move on. They will be sadly missed, but fortunately they will not be far away as their new home is in Norden, just down the road. Hopefully, they will still be able to join us for village activities in the future.

Peter and Cynthia, we wish you every happiness in your lovely new home. Homer & Rowan will not understand why they don’t hear your footsteps going by now. It always made their day as it did ours when you tapped on our door.
