FEATURING FULMER – NEWSLETTER AT 50 Here's a plug, based on the 'Featuring Fulmer' entry, to commemorate this Jubilee edition. The Newsletter was originated by the Parish Council with Edward Guinness as editor. The first edition was a modest seventeen page stapled A4 document, subsequently enlarged to some seventy pages, give or take, and has been published twice a year every May and December. All the writing of articles, editing, typing and distribution to over two hundred households in the parish and other interested parties, has been undertaken by volunteers. Printing was provided by the Guinness Company, thanks to Edward's association with them. Company developments brought an end to the freeride. The addition of advertising has offset costs and the Newsletter continues to be offered without charge to parishioners. Edward Guinness retired as editor in 2000, but still contributes. He had expressed the aims as: 1. Keeping residents informed. 2 Ensuring that reported activities are pertinent. 3. Promoting harmony within the community. 4. Encouraging constructive proposals to improve the community. Ronnie Lamb took over as head of the editorial team, including Susie Simkins, who became joint editor with Ronnie Simkins in May 2010. In recent times the format has changed to A5 size with a striking, well-illustrated cover. Production costs are met by the Parish Council but helped by advertising income. The wide coverage continues with undiminished quality. RNLI NEWS FROM FULMER BRANCH Michael Saxby We have held one event since the May Newsletter – our annual Tennis Day where we entertained 65 players to a morning of tennis and lunch at The Spinney thanks to Susie Simkins. We had a most successful event raising £2,000 with proceeds from our raffle and a sale of Jamie Oliver cookware. Our next event is our annual Quiz Night, a terrific evening being held at the Colston Hall, Gerrards Cross on Saturday, 4 February from 7.30pm. It‟s always a very popular event with people making up tables of 8 and enjoying a fish and chip supper and then pitting their wits with some tough questions on all subjects. Please let Susie Simkins (662537 or susiemsimkins@gmail.com) know if you would like to join us. We have held our annual Bridge Drive again at the Colston Hall – again another very popular event with our legendary tea being served with sandwiches, scones and lots of cake and we raised a magnificent £950! Let me know if you would like to be on our mailing list for the next drive. SUSAN FAGAN 662193 sahfagan@lineone.net
