Melton Times letter: Gracias, merci and thank you

Thanks to the Melton Times writing about my charity book 'The Village Awakes' online orders are coming-in from Spain, France, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Old Dalby’s namesake the town of Dalby in Queensland has picked it up and written about it.

In the eighteen months that I worked on the book, never once did I think, or even dream, that something like this could happen. I am truly amazed.

All monies from sales of the book go to benefit village good causes and it can be purchased for £8.50 from The Melton Mowbray Building Society in Nottingham Street, or at the weekends from Anna Stasinska, at The Old Brickyard Tea Garden in Scalford.

Jill Bernhardi, Old Dalby
