( If anyone has any information on the use of this service, please add your comments to the Travel Forum )  

CallConnect is an on demand bus service that operates only in response to pre-booked requests (on a ‘dial a bus’ basis). There is no fixed timetable as the route the bus takes is defined by passenger demand and can differ each day.

Anyone can use the CallConnect bus service for any reason and as frequently as required. The service is operated by modern, fully accessible minibuses and operates between 7am-7pm Monday to Friday and 8am-6pm Saturday. The CallConnect minibus will pick up and set down at designated locations in each village or town. Home pick ups and drop offs are also available for people who are unable to use conventional bus services due to age, disability or mobility impairment.

South Kyme Festival 2012
South Kyme May Festival took place this year on 5th and 6th May. What can I say … It could have been wetter, windier, colder. Nevertheless many stalwart fans of the Medieval era and of South Kyme came and braved the elements. Eight narrowboats came up the River Kyme Eau / Slea but many other that had planned the journey were unable to make the trip due to weather / flood conditions around the Midlands. Even with the problems, The Woodvilles, the Northcote Heavy Horses and indeed all our stallholders were fantastic. On Sunday afternoon the weather improved and a lot more people turned out to enjoy the fun. Oscar and Noah, the alpacas proved popular along with have a go archery and clay pigeon shooting. Joe Wise too had a great weekend with his forge lit up and a couple of volunteer apprentices working at the anvil producing sounds not heard in South Kyme for many years. The Vintage tractors were beautifully turned out and as always the scarecrows around the village were brilliant.

Photographs have been supplied by a number of people in including professional photographer Peter McGuire whose website can be viewed via this link.  Peter’s photos are available for sale or you can just browse the excellent shots at leisure.

Save Our Villages! - is the cry from the Anti Windfarm Lobby. Are you bothered one way or the other? My personal standpoint is one which draws the response of  ‘NIMBYISM’. If that’s all they can say to defend the building of thousands of these ‘Metal Monsters’ then I’m proud to be a nimby. These things are proven to be next to useless producing around 1% of the power produced in the UK every day. It could be argued that if they build 100 times more wind powered turbines we wouldn’t need so-called ‘dirty’ power stations. They’d have us believe we have constant wind at consistent speeds. Sadly, living on the fens we know that is not the case. Click here for facts.
Unless we get our point across to government the future is dark and cold.
Write to our MP Stephen Phillips and let him know if you feel the same way.
