The story made famous by the legend of William Tell shooting the apple balanced on his son’s head.
We are in 14th Century Switzerland, and Tell, once a peaceful hunter leads his people to rebellion after his family and country are threatened by a tyrannical Austrian King.
In Switzerland, the once peaceful country is overwhelmed and bows under the Austrian might as it advances and upends the quiet lives of the Swiss peasants. With wonderful vistas of the Swiss landscapes, this is a remarkable film.

One of my clients is hosting an event in a neighbouring village, and is looking for someone (with the use of their own car) to provide a shuttle service to ferry partygoers back from the party to their lodgings in nearby villages.  The “do” is on Saturday 17 May, and their services would be required from around 11pm until the early hours of the Sunday morning.  The driver would be paid handsomely!  Please drop me an email if you would like more information and to be considered for the job.  If this appeals to a younger village member, please ensure that you run it past a parent first.

My email address is louiseingham1@hotmail.co.uk
Many thanks

I was recently left some wonderful plant pots on my drive. This is not an isolated incident because last year someone was kind enough to leave plants on my stall

I thought maybe after a few days I would learn who had been so thoughtful but never did, so all that is left is to post here and express my heartfelt appreciation.

Thank you

This stunning film is tipped to be Film of the Year. Starring the wonderful Ralph Fiennes as Cardinal Lawrence, a character who is tasked with running this covert selection process after the unexpected death of a beloved Pope. Once the Catholic Church’s most powerful leaders have gathered from around the world and are locked together in the Vatican halls, Lawrence uncovers a trail of deep secrets left in the dead Pope’s wake–secrets which could shake the foundations of the Church

.

Guardian review *****   Fiennes gives one of the performances of the year as a cardinal assailed on all sides in Edward Berger’s elegant adaptation of Robert Harris’s Vatican
