Our Warm Space, residency at Kibworth Grammar School Hall at 12noon - 2pm on Monday lunchtime is rapidly coming to an end. This will be the second of the eight-week events.

When I first moved to the village in 1988, a letter appeared in the Chronicle. A lady requested people stop phoning the police when her husband went for a walk.
