MOVE ALONG PLEASE UPDATE..

Not much progress to report really. Firstly, an attempt was made early this morning to find out what the Parish Council might be doing about the arrival of new neighbours on our nice village green, especially as the number of visitors seems to have increased overnight. Sadly, that attempt was thwarted by the Parish Council office being closed, so one can only assume that the recently appointed Parish Clerk has run away.

There is mixed news on the early morning cock crowing front. At around 4.00am when Mrs. Snopper let Barney out (I was `strategically` asleep at the time) there was apparently no crowing to be heard. I imagined that the directly affected Parish Chairman had successfully applied for a cock gagging order from the local magistrates, but people who live right next to the site confirmed that crowing did, in fact, take place.

I`m beginning to suspect that our visitors might, after all, be refugees from Portsmouth, where there are no open spaces left that have not already been occupied by the caravans of the local population.

More on that story as we get it.
