February already, doesn't time fly? At least by now we are seeing the approach of spring, lighter nights, warmer days, although our weather being what it is it will doubtless have a few surprises in store for us before we can really say goodbye to winter. Easter is early this year and if you missed the deadline for this issue and want us to know about your Easter activities then remember we can put these on our website and details can be sent to the Cambridge News Community page if you give the details to April Martin 14 Black Horse Lane, at least four weeks before your event to give time to meet the newspaper deadlines. Talking of deadlines please note that the deadline for the NEXT issue which is due out on 1st April has had to be brought forward so we can get it printed before the schools break up for Easter. The Deadline will be 18TH FEBRUARY. Please take note of this as our schedule is very tight and we cannot accept late items. Thanks to all of you for your contributions, keep them coming, and if you have anything you would like to share with us then your Meridian is the place to do it. April Martin. |

Re: The Death of Mrs Jean Cooper The family of our much beloved Jean wish to thank everyone, friends, neighbours and past neighbours; for the numerous sympathy cards received after her tragic death. Everyone has been of great comfort to us all. We would like to thank our vicar for his time and words of comfort and also Bethel Baptist Church for their card and flowers. Thanks also to all who attended the Memorial Service at St Andrew's Church on December 9th. Our sincere and heartfelt thanks to all of you. From Harry, Vi, Tony, Kathy and Mark Cooper Dear All, Our New Year started with having to clean up our house following the activities of vandals. They had taken the contents out of a dog-waste bin, close to our house, and then thrown them all over our home. We suspect that the culprits were teenagers (of both sexes) who choose to celebrate New Year in the streets of Swavesey. I can understand that being out in the cold and dark in the middle of the night is not a lot of fun, and that, under those circumstances, almost anything can seem entertaining - but to deliberately put your hand in the dog-waste bin and pull out the contents, is not just disgusting, it's also a health hazard, both for us having to clean up, but above all for the people doing it. If it was intended as a joke, please note that we are not laughing. We hope that all parents (we don't expect the youngsters to read this magazine) take this onboard and do what they think best to inform their sons and daughters about the seriousness in being involved in this kind of vandalism, which is also actually illegal. We wish you all a better start to the rest of the year. An un-amused neighbour What a lovely day we spent, on the 5th December, at the French Market. Wonderful food, drink, gifts to buy and the stall holders were delightful to talk to. My whole family enjoyed the occasion and hope it becomes an Annual Event. Thank you all the organisers.
