October 2017
Welcome to Autumn! The nights are starting to draw in and the trees are turning to rust. The colours of autumn are
a delight to see, but the same cannot be said of the weather!
The summer is often a busy time for the village with both the Village Festival and Buckfest in July, various holiday
activities in August and then back-to-school in September. However, for the Roundabout team, the August and Sep-
tember editions are often quieter as many of our contributors are on holiday and many of the councils, societies and
clubs do not meet in August!
We’d like to make another plea for autumnal photos. We have been lucky thus far with both the quality and quanti-
ty of photos we have received with a spring and summer theme. What we need now are a similar portfolio of au-
tumnal and winter photos! The changing colours of the next few weeks should provide ample opportunity for this,
so we ask all photographers to get snapping!
Please remember to visit the Roundabout website. There are often articles there that we could not fit into the print
edition, as well as information that arrives during the month:
