From Monday 12 April all boaters were finally allowed to move. Hire boats could start up again, albeit still with restrictions on numbers and households.

2020 Hindsight! With 2020 now behind us, the team at Edmonds and Slatter are looking back with astonishment at last year. It brought us many new situations and an expanded vocabulary, including ‘social distancing’ and other Covid-related terms. Ironically 2020 was also the Chinese Year of the Rat.

Bridge 67 Butchers opened its doors on the 5th November 2020 just as we went into lockdown for the second time. Situated on the High Street in Kibworth, the butchers’ shop offers a fantastic range of quality products with the main emphasis on local, British products.

In August The Beauty Room will have been on the High Street for 16 years. We are thrilled to be opening our doors again following the recent lockdown. Liz Ives, the owner, can’t thank all of her loyal clients enough for their wonderful support over the last year.

From the front it’s hard to see what lies behind our doors because we’re not a usual kind of shop. Having no window display could be seen as a hindrance for many retail businesses. However, once people step through the door, they can really appreciate our quirky barn. Our unique barn allows plenty of room to browse safely. We're pleased your reactions say it all. We’re so happy we decided to revamp and reconfigure our shop ahead of re-opening.

I am pleased to introduce our Top Five Books for May.

At Edmonds and Slatter Opticians we pride ourselves in offering the highest quality of patient visual care. We are also very pleased to be able to offer the same high quality of hearing care to our patients.

Fiona Cairns Ltd is a local business based in Fleckney making many thousands of luxury cakes each year. The business has grown from its humble origins at a kitchen table in Mowsley.

I was asked by Amberley Publishing to write this book before we heard about Covid-19.
