You will have all seen the tragic images of the recent fires in the UK, caused by very dry and hot weather.
This year, we in Dallington, have let our verges, triangles etc., remain uncut much longer to enable wild flowers to seed and we have a great deal of VERY dry grass during this hot weather.
Please remember and take extra care with:
- Barbeques
- Garden fires
- Check your compost heaps (they can self-ignite)
- Move your mirrors/glass in line with the sun through your windows
- Cigarettes thrown from cars are an incredible fire risk at the moment
Please bear the above in mind and anyone working for you that the village of Dallington is now like a tinderbox and will probably be like this all Summer.
Please do take care.
