| Fulstow Newsletter October 2001 Here we go again. Was it you or your children out late on Saturday, who decided to ruin the flower displays outside the shop and destroy the papers ? Also which of the little groups of teenagers found it amusing to hang the swings higher up & in doing so have broken them, yet again. We all know it’s not our children” so whoever they DO belong to, we hope next time they set fire to the bin or hedge that they don’t get hurt, as sympathy & excuses have run out on trying to explain why these dull, brainless vandals continue to cause more havoc around the village.
