'The Wonderful World of Joseph McCrumble' is now in stock at Burwell post office. This 284 page paperback charts the adventures of the eponymous hero, his friends and colleagues at the Cumbernauld Instiute of Parasitology - a research institute located nowhere near the Scottish town of Cumbernauld. Follow McCrumble as he battles against increasingly difficult circumstances with almost unfailing optimism. Be prepared to laugh and cry as things start to unravel, and McCrumble's life starts to, er, crumble. Life in the McCrumble household is never dull, but will it all end in tears?

RRP £7.99

All Author Royalties from the book are being given to the Matangini Project (www.matangini.org.uk) - a development project within the registered charity Stand Up for Africa (no 1102273).

Give a little time and make a BIG difference! Have fun and make a real difference to the lives of a disabled child and their family.
Cambridge Mencap are looking for people to provide regular breaks for families with children with learning disabilities. You would get to know the child, spend a few hours or more once a month involving them in everyday activities in your community or in their home, and at the same time you will be giving the child's own family a break.
You do not need to have looked after a child with learning disabilities before, as training and support are provided. You will also be paid travel expenses.

Interested? Please contact Suzanne, the Volunteer Service Coordinator at 01223 441157 or suzanne@cambridgemencap.co.uk

I have recently moved into the area and am looking for someone with a field with access to water to put my pony in the village, she's a hardy type and doesn't need a stable. Company would be preferable but not necessary and she's no trouble a very chilled out and friendly pony.
I'd really like to have her close by so if anyone can help me please drop me an email

The monitor we used for showing our collection of "archive" videos at the museum broke down a few weeks ago and we would like to replace it.
If you or someone you know wants to get rid of their old (working) large screen tv or video monitor we would love to have it (preferably for free but we are willing to pay).
Our old monitor had a 40 inch (colour) screen.
If you give us the tv/monitor for free we will put a notice next to it to say who donated it.
Please contact us if you can help.
Thank you.

Missing Cat
We live in Burwell and have lost our cat. He is one year old, grey and white, with a green reflective collar. He is a much loved family pet and has never gone missing before. He went missing on 23rd November. We think he may be in an outbuilding in the Buntings Path area or that someone has taken him as lost and is looking after him, as he is very loveable.

So if they is any other aupairs or any girls between 17-25yrs that can show her around I am sure she would really appreciate it. I thank you in advance for all your help.

Home wanted for Billy!!
Billy is a retired hospital cat. He has spent the last 15 years supervising doctors, nurses and patients at an inner city hospital in London. As Billy is getting into the winter of his life, he needs a home all to himself, with all the love and attention some very special person out there would be willing to give. Billy is an extremely adaptable cat, having been used to getting on with so many different people at any time, he is a friendly, outgoing little character, in search of a cosy corner to spend the rest of his days.
Any kind offers would be much appreciated!

Are you the next Sven Erickson? If so Burwell Swallows Girls Football team desperately need you! They have until the end of May to find a replacement coach. They are a great bunch of girls who love playing but without a coach the team has no future. If you could commit yourself most weeks to an evening training and a Saturday match, even if only for one season, then please get in touch.

We are always looking for willing volunteers to help with the physical, "behind the scenes" work at the Museum. This work can be almost anything including digging, painting, grass cutting etc.
If you would like to help just turn up on Tuesday evenings after 6:30pm or Sunday mornings after 10:30am (or both) and we'll find you a job! No specialist skills needed, just be prepared to get a bit mucky so bring your own old clothes or overalls.

Help Required.

I am undertaking some research into members of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers who died in the First World War. I am particularly interested in members of the Regiment who are buried in this county.

I know that an old RWF resident of Burwell who died during WW1 is buried in St Mary's. His name is Clifford Edward Bridgeman. I have a photo of his gravestone and also a photo of the plaque in the church in my files. I am trying to find more information about this man.

Is anyone able to shed any more light on this mans life and death ?

Any info gratefully received. Thanks.

I am hoping that someone can help me find out the last name of the family that lived at
23 Martin Rd
Burwell
Cambridge, England
in August, 1953 to April 1954. The lady named Laura was one of my grandmother's sisters. I just recently found two letters written by Laura, this is my first clue for any of my grandmother's relatives. I know nothing of the family except that Laura's maiden name was Holmes and there was another sister named Alice. Alice had a daughter whose name was Winifred. Winifred lived in a lodge in front of Gates (Cates?) of Scarboro Castle. My grandmother's name was Annie Isabel Holmes Lundstrom born Ferbruary 21, 1879 in England. Thank you in advance for your help.
