The comment by a party well versed in the Village goings on was to the effect that there are quite a few villagers who show up for weekends arriving Friday nights and the store should have a phone number and encourage fulfillment of phone orders for food and household basics for this group so that it is available for pick up by these late arrivers.

However, I think that buying groups play into the hands of the big corporates such as DCC/GB Oils, who are the very companies sighted by ministers and the press as lacking in transparency. Indeed there are calls for the Competition Commission to investigate their relentless march. By driving down heating oil prices, the buying group naturally drives down the margins to almost unsustainable levels for the independent distributor. Long term, this will help the large players to dominate the market and we all know what happens then! Prices will rise and service levels drop; take a look at the big six energy providers in the UK. I've covered a number of these issues in my blog on the TateOil website. Some articles cover heating oil prices, others comparisons between fuels, yet more on market issues.

Lucy loves the Brownie's in our village and we would like her to continue with this? Would you also have information on local registered childminders in the area? Best wishes, Joanne Wright Dear Madam,

I am in touch with Valerie by letters. I lived in Sulgrave from 1939 -1945, then known as Anne Brookfield. I knew Daphne, she may remember me. I lived in Sulgrave House, Christopher Maneys parents owned it then. I was friend with Valerie & Phillip & often went to tea with them. Phillips mother nearly always gave us egg sandwiches made with egg whites, the yolks she kept for her cake making. I lost touch with Valerie & Phillip when I left Sulgrave. I found her again through Sulgrave Website after asking Colin to get in touch with her for me. I am so pleased that he did. God Rest your soul Phillip. You had a good life. Anne Wiseman.
