 Welcome to Neston News - your weekly round up of local news and events in the Neston area. Click here for Online version (if your email or mobile programme has mangled the layout). I hope you all enjoyed our little jape on April Fool's Day. We were almost spoilt for choice in terms of potential topics this year, but in the end it had to be something to do with the Town Hall take-over, so there you have it. If you've missed our previous years' spoofs, you can catch up with them here. The Neston Ladies Day 200 Heritage Project is going well, but we NEED people to come to the Library on Saturday April 5 between 1pm and 4pm with photos, memories and any memorabilia. Please don't assume everyone else has it covered - ALL your contributions are valuable to the project. If you would like your photos to be in with a chance of going into the Commemorative Brochure, you need to let us have them, so please do check out all the details here. Easter Holidays coming up from Friday - we have some activities listed here, but if you are organising anything else, please get in touch so we can help get word out to local residents. We'll be taking a short break next week, so the next issue of Neston News will be on Wednesday April 16. Have a great week! Carrie & the AboutMyArea Team
