Dear all

Please see email below and do not open anything to do with Census stuff

 ___________________________________________________________________
Statement from Director of the 2011 Census, Glen Watson, Friday 27 January 2012.
Email Scam
We are aware that an email entitled 'Population Census: a message to everyone - act now' is being circulated, allegedly in the name of National Statistician, Jil Matheson. This email demands individuals provide further personal information, supposedly for the Census and threatens fines for non-compliance.
 

This email is a scam and a hoax. It has no connection whatsoever with the National Statistician, the 2011 Census or the Office for National Statistics.

We believe the links in the email could download malware to any computer where the user clicks on the links. This could put your personal data, including financial information, at risk.

Anyone receiving this, or similar emails, should delete them, not open any links and certainly not provide any information.

For more information on how to protect yourself from this type of threat, please see www.getsafeonline.org

If you wish to, please report receipt of any such suspicious emails to www.actionfraud.org.uk
 
ONS takes the protection of personal census information extremely seriously. Collection of census data was completed last year and no further requests will be forthcoming from the Office for National Statistics relating to the 2011 Census.

Just moved in


January 29th 2012

 

Hi.  I am Arthur (Celtic for "Bear") and I have just moved into Lerryn.  I am a Cockerpoo (a cross between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle) and am 7 weeks old.  My new owners are Ann and Bernie Gibbons.  I now begin the lengthy process of training them to pander to my every need.

 

I look forward to meeting my fellow villagers once I have had my inoculations.  See you about.

Arthur

 


Archie


January 26th 2012

A visitor to the Lerryn.net website sent us three photos of Archie which were taken in September.  He wrote:

Hi, I was sad to read of the recent demise of the village swan, "Archie".  I would be honoured if you could see fit to add these photos to your collection.  They were taken last summer. 
 
Thanks, Bob.
 
The photos are on the Photo Gallery and can be seen by clicking on the image of Archie below:

SUCCESSFUL FIRST LERRYN LUNCH


January 24th 2012

THE FIRST OF THE LERRYN LUNCHES took place on Thursday 19th January.   Thirty four people of all ages (including four toddlers) enjoyed each other’s company whilst tucking into a tasty casserole followed by apple crumble and custard.  Compliments on the food abounded and it was a truly social occasion which members of Lerryn Women’s Institute enjoyed hosting.  During tea and coffee afterwards, Catherine Murphy (President) thanked everyone for supporting the very first lunch, and asked Ronald Elliott (benefactor of the new kitchen) to draw the lucky ticket for a free meal next time.  This lucky person was Sue Pearce.  The small profit made will go towards the cost of the Hygiene Course which Lerryn Women’s Institute funded for the benefit of both its own members and the members of other organisations in the village.  Grateful thanks must go to everyone who contributed in any way to make the lunch such a success and particularly to Rachel Hoole, whose idea it was in the first place to have social lunches in the Memorial Hall.  Do look out for details of the next of the lunches, which will be hosted by the mothers of Lerryn Playgroup and the School.
