News from Rina Bayly in Peru
"My parents lived in Fox Cottage in Fox Hill Road but they moved to live with me in Peru, my mother dying in November 1995. I want to let people here know that Dad died on 20th April this year, at the grand age of 93.
I know he kept in touch with Rita Dellar and Dawn Cranmer. Please could you let everyone know - many thanks indeed."

Andrew Lansley MP - Broadband speeds
"I am concerned that South Cambridgeshire does not benefit from fast broadband and that this is putting businesses and others who require internet access at a significant disadvantage. I have, following contact with several of my constituents, been informed many homes have connection speeds which are significantly below the Government's recommendedminimum connection speed of 2Mb.
I would be grateful if you would inform me, as to your knowledge, if, and to what extent how, slow Broadband speeds are affecting people in your Parish."
