Summary
This month's issue includes:
- "Truly vintage" motoring by John Leaning. Article by an enthusiast who had a spin in a local and very rare 1937 Jensen Duel Phaeton. The 1917 Stutz Bearcat in the photograph is among the owner's four-wheeled treasures.
- Read about sea birds on the Scilly Isles by our regular contributor, Keith Davies
- "Wessex Diaries - Sketches from Life in Hardy Country" is a newly published book by John Vallins of Horsington. John has been contributing a fortnightly Country Diary column for the Guardian newspaper over the past 20 years and this book contains gems from these articles.
- Graham Wilkins - an article in warm appreciation of this most respected local man who was sadly killed in a car accident earlier this summer.
- Farm Watch - With the demise of so many local farms it is good for our rural community to keep up to date with what is happening on the farms in our area.
- Events Diary for these two villages for this month and various announcements of forthcoming events and activities.
