Extraordinary scens last night at an extraordinary meeting of the Durnford Parish Council with the largest attendance in living memory.

In addition to parish councillors Steve Langdon, Nick Gallup, Ness Hawkings, Norman Southey, James Templer and clerk, Wendy Rountree a baying mob including Patricia Powell, Suzanne Waters, Malcolm and Stephanie Down, Jeremy Makin, James Templer and Peter Curtis gathered to here the closely guarded secret revealed. Pitch forks were at the ready.

An EGM of Durnford Parish Council is to be held in Woodford Village Hall at 7pm on Friday 6th November 2009.

The reason for the EGM will be revealed at the meeting but I'm promised it will effect the residents of Great Durnford.
