Jackdaw Chatter - The Quarterly Magazine about Stow-cum-Quy

Hello

I can’t believe that I am now approaching my second year as Editor.
I have had a really good time reading all the articles that have been placed in this edition. A great big thank you to everyone who makes the effort to send in articles for the Jackdaw as without these the magazine would certainly not exist. I had a little chuckle to myself reading about the Jackdaw Christmas meal and I could just imagine the Catering Quartet ‘fly past’ and the great time that was had there, almost makes me wish I was 60!!
Spring is certainly in the air and I have really enjoyed watching the wildlife movements. I watched the swans the other day making their nest ready for this years ‘batch’ of cygnets and went home to get the camera ready for the front cover. As I suspected… they had moved on and I had to wait ages for them to return. When they finally did they would not go near the nest and I had to make do with a picture of the two of them on the water, I hope you like it anyway.
A special thanks to Jim Watts who has included in this edition an index for those of you who like to keep your Jackdaw Chatter in order. This must have taken absolutely ages (and a trip down Memory Lane) so thank you.
Best wishes must go to Bill Watts who tried to saw his own hand off – fancy blaming Jean!! Shame on you.
There is no Young Quy for this edition so apologies to you, but send in any stories or pictures for the next edition.
There are lots of notices and dates for your diary so make a note of them and I will see you in the Summer.

A very Happy Easter to you all, see you soon.
