Halloween Time again!




Yes it's that time of year again, and our nice farmer friend from bedford has delivered a large selection of pumpkins to us. prices from £1.50 to £2.95 for the very big ones !
Oh and don't for get this sunday morning the clocks 'fall' back an hour !so extra hour in bed for ickleford stores, but mind you makes it that bit harder getting up at 4am in the morning for the rest of the week !

Spring may just be round the corner !



So, here we are on the 2ND of march 2010, and looks like another fantastic day here in ickleford. and as you can see this morning at 7am, we had a fantastic sunrise behind the shop. And with our first delivery of primrose's and garden shrubs and the ground being so soft, it could be a good time to start looking at the garden.So now, with a few hours to myself, i little walk round the village, with the dogs to see if our visitors from herts highways have put in and appearance........



And as i walk past the raised zebra crossing, and down into the village, i see still no herts highways and after seven weeks still no HUMPS !


oh well, over the fields now and take a look to see how the new horse field is looking.



And on my way home, a little stop off to see our new grave yard ! And i must say, the parish council have done a fantastic job in planning all this.
