KYN newsletter: March 26

Welcome to this week's Know Your Neighbours update.

So - finally after this weekend, my car clock (along with many others I know of), will be correct again, due to the springing forward for our summer time. We are still enjoying beautiful spring weather and can look forward to Mothering Sunday this weekend. It feels like we really may be leaving winter behind doesn't it?? So, let's see what we have ahead of us in Seal.


DISTRICT WEEKEND SPRING CLEAN;-
I'm a little late to this party, but this weekend, sees the Sevenoaks District Care For Our Community Spring Clean. If you have any time over this weekend, and would like to take part in a general litter pick, we do have some grabbers and hi vis jackets if you could let me know asap though please.

GARDEN SAFARI


Saturday June 4th - pm Frances Fish is going to organise another Garden Safari around the gardens of homes in Seal village.(Proceeds ro Kent Air Ambulance). If you have a garden that could be safely shown to others (or know somebody else that does), please let us know. You don't have to have a huge space - in fact sometimes, the smaller gardens are more inspiring, as we realise our small space can accommodate big ideas. If you think you might be able, but feel unsure, just say, and we can put you in touch with others who have participated before. I'm sure they will reassure you.
IF YOU HAVE ANY UNWANTED CHRISTMAS GIFTS OR ITEMS THAT MIGHT BE APPROPRIATE< FRANCES IS LOOKING TO PUT SOME RAFFLE PRIZES TOGETHER FOR THIS AND OTHER EVENTS IN THE VILLAGE. Please let me know and we will arrange collection.


BIG LUNCH AND FAMILY FUN DAY - HELP NEEDED PLEASE TO ORGANISE, BOOK FOOD OUTLETS AND BOUNCY CASTLES ETC.

We have a fish and chip van and an ice cream van booked at present. There will be games and fun for all ages - competitions, races and general fun activities for all.Annie Fish and Barbara Martin have already started planning our fun activities. If you have any ideas for games or contests, or would like to help with the planning, please get in touch and we will pass your details on.


We hope that many of you will participate in sprucing up our village beforehand, so look out for dates and times of community litter picks, etc. Also, we felt it would be great to encourage as many people as possible, to decorate/adorn the village appropriately. Here are some ideas:-


Planting your front gardens or outside areas in red white and blue - hanging baskets or borders, etc.
Display a 'Royal Scene' in your windows - rather along the line of Advent Windows, but with a royal theme
Display a royal scarecrow outside your home or in a public area where he/she or it, will be seen.
Decorate your home with red, white and blue bunting and flags
PLEASE DON'T BE SHY - GIVE US MORE IDEAS - WE ARE ALWAYS OPEN TO NEW ONES! WE ALSO NEED PEOPLE TO COME ALONG AND HELP TO ORGANISE THE EVENTS - CO-ORDINATE BOOKING OF FOOD OUTLETS, SOURCE FAMILY FUN ACTIVITIES ETC. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE JUST A LITTLE TIME TO SPARE.
I am aware that some people are already creating and planning for this. We will keep you updated weekly via these emails.
There will be lots of opportunities for you to get involved in the planning of these events, so please let us know if you are interested to help (before you get press-ganged)!


QUEEN OF PUDDINGS QUIZ
This event has been booked for Friday April 29th from 7.30pm in the Church Hall. This event will cost £5 per head and include a quiz with a 'loose' royal theme, and tasters of puddings between each round, In all, we hope to have around 20 different desserts for you to try, so eat before you come by all means, but do leave room for some sweet treats during the evening.

SEAL CHRISTMAS LIGHTS

We are giving you plenty of time to organise yourselves for this - we will be looking for a small team of people to come forward, to organise the installing of the Christmas lights this year. It is not that arduous, and, of course, I will support whoever takes this on in whatever way you might need. If you would like to lead on this project, please give me a call on 01732 763727 or 07909905975, and we can have a chat. There is no problem with fund raising, as this is already in place (unless you have plans for a much more dramatic display). It will mainly involve getting the lights PAT tested for safety, organise teams to hang ( we already have insurance sorted), and to take back down and store safely for the following year.

The Village Covid Commemoration Tree and Talking Village Benches

We have recently heard that the benches have been ordered, to be placed, as agreed, on the recreation ground, in a horseshoe shape, as Talking Village benches. KYN are funding 3 of these benches, with help from a generous annonymous donation made last year. They will be placed beyond the pavilion, and at the edge of the trees, to enable a good view of the football, and providing a little shelter from our blazing summer sun.

Meanwhile, the tree is still under some discussion. Chris Tavare has provided some very interesting articles on the best container grown trees, and so far, the most votes go to  the Amelanchier. There was some discussion about the viability of container grown trees, so this discussion goes on. Please, if you have expertise in this field, do give us your views. Whatever the decision regarding the tree, we will be having a planted up (probably wooden)  container on the forecourt in front of the dentist, to beautify the space. 

Once this has been decided upon we will be looking for a group of volunteers to build the planter as a community project. If you are interested and would like to join this group, please let me know via this email. Obviously, if you are a craftsman, with experience and patience with us poor mere mortals, we would LOVE to hear from you!

Thanks to Frances to organising the first 6 months of topics. She has also arranged a group of
volunteers to help with the teas and I am looking forward to seeing this popular activity back in the
library. We would be grateful if people could sign up if they are coming to ensure the right amount
of catering is provided!
The Reading Group continues to grow and one of last month’s books A Woman made of Snow by
Elizabeth Gifford was a resounding hit with the group, for anyone looking for a book
recommendation.

books sadly, died earlier this week. We have several of her books available to borrow in the porch
display and even more to reserve free to children on-line.
I have also a couple of middle grade children’s book recommendations this month.
The Escape Room by Christopher Edge, Illustrator David Dean: An adventure story with a surprise
twist- an original thought-provoking book.

Loki by Louie Stowell written in a similar style in Tom Gates, a funny diary style book centred on the
naughty Norse god Loki sent to Earth as a boy as a punishment. This is the first in a series.

ST PETER AND ST PAUL CHURCH SEAL

Just a reminder that Anne is still making podcasts of the weekly services, so please log on to the church website www.sealpeterandpaul.com to get the link. These were very popular with our KYN readers during lockdown, and we are aware that many are still not comfortable to go to church during the pandemic, and many still benefit from the healing ministry via these podcasts. If you are having trouble downloading, let me know via this email, and I will add you to the list of people I forward them to.

SEAL CHRISTMAS LIGHTS

We are giving you plenty of time to organise yourselves for this - we will be looking for a small team of people to come forward, to organise the installing of the Christmas lights this year. It is not that arduous, and, of course, I will support whoever takes this on in whatever way you might need.

It will mainly involve getting the lights PAT tested for safety, organise teams to hang ( we already have insurance sorted), and to take back down and store safely for the following year. 

We will be looking to hold another KYN drop-in at the Village Hall later in the spring. So - please organise somebody from your group or organisation to bring along some information and photos maybe, to promote your group, especially to new neighbours! Remember to encourage any new members to our community to come along as well.
