HEATING OIL SAVINGS - On Tuesday Ocle Pychard Group Parish Council will be discussing a suggestion that a local oil-buying group should be set up to take advantage of savings through bulk buying. It would be very helpful if established groups would be prepared to share their experiences with the parish clerk at parishclerk@ymail.com LENT LUNCH - Friday, March 23, at 12noon, there will be a lent lunch at Wanaki, Burley Gate (next to the Post Office/Shop).
