Jean
Cross is
a teacher who will be moving from Cornwall to Walthamstow (or nearby). She has an eight-year-old collie called Bet,
who is “adorable, well behaved and very good company.” Whilst Jean is at work, Bet has been spending
the days with a dog-sitter and Jean is really keen to find another such person
in the area. It is not necessary to walk
Bet, so if you’re able to offer companionship each day to a Collie dog, and get
companionship from her, please contact Jean
Cross on beancroft34@yahoo.co.uk
Open
Church – Sunday
afternoons from 2.00 – 5.00 pm. There
will be tea/coffee and cakes available.
Please do come! We need
volunteers to be hosts and serve refreshments and also people to make a cake -
please speak to Bernard, Judith, Frances
or Sue for more information or sign up on the rota at the back of church –
putting your name and if making a cake, what flavour it will be!
Be more concerned
with your character
than with your
reputation, because your character is what you really are
while your
reputation is merely what others
think you are
