  MMmmmm...'Scotland's own' Stanley Baxter, but Billy Connelly is everybody's?
  
  A charming if incongruous 'lesson' from the vicarage:Don't sweat the small stuff, and in a Parish newsletter too.
  
  What with a piece on 'active retirees' next to an Ad for Skip Hire, the Parish seems action-packed.
  Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

  Thank you for highlighting the event sir, we need all the support we can get as this has been a long time coming and involved plenty of effort.
  
  I'll be there and I'm keeping everthing crossed hoping that the weather will be kinder as the Folkestone photo shoot yesterday was rained off outdoors.
  
  I'll be the one in.....come and see, it would be shame to spoil the surprise!

  i will be there amanda, the weather forecast is for a nice day.
  
  looking forward to seeing the new facility, we all realise that a lot of time and effort went in to getting it.

  Drat! Going to miss the Mini Skate Park opening at Capel today due to being called in for any problems from the Nottingham Hill Carnival.
  
  
  If any one from the forum goes perhaps they would be kind enough to post some pictures, as these are usually better than the official photo's.

  the whole recreation ground has many facilities with ample seating when the exercise gets too much.

  this afternoon wasn't just about the skate park, there was also the unveiling of the qe 11 fields in trust plaque, a new one on me.
  
  
  

  

  
  
  doing the unveiling were mrs ros mccarthy, deputy lieutenant of kent on behalf of the queens representative of the lieutenant of kent together together with mrs sue nicholas chairman of dover district council.

  Some great pictures Mr mcsweeney you even got a shot of one youngster who has tried to get me on a skateboard without success!
  
  As I wasn't able to be there would it be in order for me to copy some of the photo's you uploaded for my personal collection please?

  nearly forgot this one, it shows that despite all the facilities on site there is still plenty of open space for families to have an impromptu game of their own.
  
  congratulations to all in capel that have worked to get to this stage.
  
  i must add that i saw not one piece of litter or dog toffee in the entire area.
