The Hors d'oeuvres...
What did the pie say to the chips? "I can't talk now. I'm a little horse."
After eating a suspect burger, the patient is now in a stable condition.
Did you hear about the supermarket that's re-labelled its meat aisle "the bridleway"?
My doctor told me to watch what I eat, so I went out and bought tickets for the Grand National.
Those Tesco burgers were nice, but I prefer My Lidl Pony...
Why has it taken so long to discover the horse meat in lasagnes? Because the cheese on top is Mascarpone!!
Are you happy to have horse in your burgers? (Answer 'Yay' or 'Neigh'.)
Did you hear about the disgruntled butcher's assistant? He claims his work is "like flogging a dead horse".
I had a burger last night and there's still a bit stuck between my teeth...
And finally.... if you don't fancy eating beef burgers any more you could always switch to venison ones. Trouble is, they're dead dear...

Please Park Prettily And With Consideration...
Little Lane residents have been concerned for some time about inconsiderate parking at, or near the junction of Little Lane/Vicarage Road.
Such parking has restricted access and, occasionally, blocked larger vehicles from gaining access to the lane.
Following an on-site meeting with Ward Councillor Nigel Sherwood, residents are working in partnership with various agencies to resolve the situation and will meet Cllr Sherwood and NLC Highway officers later in March.
In the meantime, residents are asking all drivers to be aware of the narrowness of the junction and are requesting drivers to park with consideration when parking in the area.
