For the first time I have heard of a village that shares my last name. One day I wish to visit Cowling, seems such a beautiful place to see.

Does anyone know of any jobs going locally, preferably administrative, some form of customer service or just something manual. Looking on all the usual places but a lot of the best jobs are all about who you know. Grateful for any help.

A big thank you all those who did such a fantastic job organising Cowling Gala 2009.

It is a great tribute to our village, an occasion for everyone to get together each year and a tradition that continues to bring out the very best in us all - from those who give of their valuable time to attend meetings and arrange everything to the smallest detail to those who play their part on the day itself (including the weather too, I might add).

I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as we did and look forward to another great day in 2010.

Thank you and well done to everyone.

Overnight on Tuesday a property on Park Road in Cowling was broken into and items were stolen. Entry was gained by forcing the house key out of the rear lock of the kitchen door and reaching it through a cat flap, then using it from the outside to gain access. This is not the first time recently that this method has been used to enter properties. Can we ask that when you secure your doors, that the key is removed from the lock and stored in a safe place out of sight. Thank you - North Yorkshire Police

Wanted - Folding Chair Bag

I am wanting the kind of bag that comes with folding camping style chairs.

Happy to pay for it at right price and also collect.

Would like to point out the proposed licensing hours for new Thai Restaurant which are posted on window of premises and have been in Craven Herald lately. Any comments to that on notice, and not on here pls.
Wishing this new venture every success, and hope it will be an asset to the village.

OK so this is not Cowling related but if you have not seen it, it is worth watching and is very well done.

FROG PROBLEM! We have a very very large number of tadpoles that are turning into tiny frogs in our new wildlife pond - it’s like a plague! Does anyone want any for their own pond? They are great for naturally controlling slugs and snails! Does anyone know a place where we could take some of them to live before our garden is taken over? Please get in touch! May need to try frog birth control next spring!!! Darren

I'd like to say thank you to the lady who knocked on my door to say her dog had pooped outside my house and she had tried to clean it up the best she could but I think the dog must have had an upset tummy. Had I not had a screaming 1 year old to deal with whilst making the tea and cleaning up I wouldn't have been as vague - anyway it only took a minute to clean up and thanks again for not just walking away!

CONGRATULATIONS To the shopkeeper, For being the rudest shopkeeper i have ever met. He has no skills whatsoever in dealing with HIS OWN CUSTOMERS. I only use the shop if i must. I called in there tonight and all the time i was being served he never muttered a single word(please, thank you, would you like a bag) nothing, I actually asked him if he had lost his voice to which he replied WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO SAY in an aggressive manner. i am in disbelief.
