Dear Editor

Here’s a few pieces of news for your next edition.

Also attached is a Christmas recipe.

Station Camp Site has had another busy season. Many campers are directed towards the Grouse Inn, where they enjoy the all day menu. There has also been an increase in the amount of specialist groups, such as Duke of Edinburgh Award students. A new feature at the site this year has been the garden, which has had a favourable response from the campers.

Heather Blair has won a specialist music computer through the BBC Fame Academy Bursary Awards. To win she had to fill in a lengthy questionnaire detailing her musical achievements, performances and ambitions. Her referee was Mr Chris Duckett, head of music at Ysgol Dinas Bran.

Regards,

Judith Blair

Dear Editor

Through the pages of Y Bont could I take this opportunity to thank all those who supported my Fitness League Classes held in aid of the Neuadd. Although numbers attending were small we managed to contribute £100.

Dear Readers

I would like to remind you about house security especially as thefts rise at this time of the year.

1) Secure all ladders - chain them up with a padlock or put them inside out of sight.
2) Take keys out of the door and make them invisible from the windows.
3) Lock away valuable garden equipment.
4) Lock windows
5) Shut gates and secure trailers.
6) Use a steering wheel lock on your car when not being used.
7) Remember - your garage may contain many valuables - lock them up!
8) Make your house visible at night - use outside lights, burglars do not like to be seen!

Above all, let’s look out for each other and report any suspicious activity.
