Charlbury Co-op

Seconded for Evenlode Bookshop! Jon delivered my Xmas presents in person to my house seeing as I have been pretty laid up with a prolapsed lumbar disk ... and the kids have read theirs already so why do I bother buying them books rather than library ho hum but there is something magical about owning books I can't shake from my childhood where I would save for months to buy a plane spotters book, Spot the 50's born kid "Empire of the Skies" era heh. Incidentally a really good history for plane buffs is Empire of the Skies. Amazon is unnecessary with this service in the village!

I too am grateful for the milk deliveries and the Co-op.

I think a big thank to all the retailers in Charlbury including Mike, Vicky and Steve for the intrepid milk deliveries in an electric milk float!

The Charlbury Chess Club will not be meeting until further notice due to lack of support.

May I add my thanks to the Co-op staff for keeping going under very trying circumstances - and 'hats off' to the lad who walked to work from Spelsbury on Monday! No great distance maybe but with 10" of snow, that would have been quite a trek.

I would like to say a big thank you to the staff at the co-op who have worked so hard to keep the shelves stacked, and struggled with the thankless task of attempting to keep the floor dry, as well as having to face terrible behaviour from some customers panic-buying in spite of the deliveries getting through every day. Yesterday one young man had walked from Spelsbury to get to his job there, and was still polite and smiling. I hope the comnpany gives them all a Christmas bonus!
