Southern Electric have been in contact this morning. As you may be aware, we are expecting bad weather to come in overnight tonight (Wednesday 17/01 into midmorning Thursday 18/01).
From reviewing data on previous power interruptions from earlier this winter the circuit that Nettlebed is fed from was affected.
In light of the anticipated weather South Electric have additional field staff rota'd on to help overnight and tomorrow as well as strategically located mobile generation nearby should it be needed.
Attached is a leaflet on best practice for your reference. The most important thing to remember is SE emergency contact number 105.

This note confirms discussions held between the Post Office and John Howell MP, Member of Parliament for the Henley Constituency, on 12 January 2018.

Dear Sir/Madam
Nettlebed Post Office® Nettlebed Service Station, Port Hill, Nettlebed, Henley-on-Thames, RG9 5DB Branch Temporary Closure
I am writing to inform you that, regrettably, following the resignation of the Postmaster and the withdrawal of the premises for Post Office use, the above branch will be closing temporarily on Monday 12 February 2018.
I would like to assure you that we are working hard to keep any period of closure to a minimum and are currently investigating the options available which will enable us to reinstate a Post Office service to the local community. In exploring this, it is important that any future service is sustainable for the person operating the service, and for Post Office Limited.
If you have any questions you would like to raise about this matter, please write to me via the National Consultation Team at the address shown below. Please note that your comments...

I find I have been left with a 25 kilo bag and about another 15 kilos of granulated sugar and 120 glass jars ( 20gram size ). Is anyone making marmalade or could use the sugar in any way or any thoughts on where I could deliver the sugar to. Sadly food banks don’t want it as its loose.

This Sunday 14th January Patrick Amory is leading a drop-in work party on the Nettlebed Commons. We will be there from 11-4pm and keen for as many who might be interested to come and join - whether you are looking for a work-out before lunch, something to get your children outside for or because you love our wonderful Commons - come and help clear scrub, improve the habitats for the rare and threatened species we have and build enormous piles for bug hotels. Our Ecologist, Rod D’Ayala will be there directing operations and answering questions. The more volunteers the merrier. All ages welcome. Drop by for an hour before lunch, or for an afternoon’s exercise, or both. Bring warm clothes, bow saws, gloves or just your willing bare hands. We will be meeting on Priest Hill, roughly here:

A very Happy New Year from the Chilterns Conservation Board.
Today, we are launching a survey on the Chilterns. We want to hear from local organisations and members of the public about what they value about the Chilterns, what their concerns are and what the priorities should be for the future.
The link to the survey is here: www.surveymonkey.com/r/FutureOfTheChilterns
This survey will form part of our review of the Chilterns AONB Management Plan working with a range of partners. As an important stakeholder in the AONB we are very keen to involve you in this process. A first consultation on a draft plan will take place from May, and we will ensure you have the opportunity to comment at that time.

I recently junked my old HP printer but I have some print cartridges left over if anyone would like them.
There's a black and a yellow unopened and also the black, yellow, magenta and blue that I took out of the printer before junking it. Probably dried up but who knows?
If anyone would like them please let me know. I'll keep them until this coming Friday 5 Jan. Min McLoughlin 01491 641072, 07950-100653...
