At long last our summer appears to have arrived, providing ample opportunities to enjoy long summer days with glasses of bubbly and sizzling barbecues. Sounds good doesn't it? Unfortunately, other things can and do interrupt this glorious picture such as gardening and keeping gardens in check - the life of a churchyard is no exception. St James' Church is blessed to have a few acres of green space which sadly is rapidly becoming rarer in our world.
