       achieved through the use of a hand-held radar device and if drivers are found to
       exceed the limit by more than a certain margin, they will receive a warning letter
       from the police.  Any persistent offenders will, ultimately, be penalized.

       Despite the potential penalty element, the aim of CSW is not to catch motorists
       out  –  it  is  simply  to  encourage  them  to  be  mindful  that  they  are  in  a  speed
       restricted area and that they should proceed accordingly.

       Further down the line, as data are gathered, we may be able to instigate moves
       to reduce the speed limit to 20mph and to extend the areas covered by those
       limits – these points were frequently raised in survey responses.

       As and when there is more to report, we will provide updates in both the parish
       magazine and on the community website.

       BLADEN SOCIAL CLUB  -  VOLUNTEERS
       REQUIRED


       The  Bladen  Social  Club  needs  volunteers  to  come  and  have  fun  and  enjoy
       themselves. No previous experience required just a willingness to visit the club on
       a Monday or Saturday evening, buy alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks and enjoy
       yourselves. Bring your friends, family, and neighbours or just come and meet other
       residents of Briantspuddle and Affpuddle who enjoy a drink and a night out.

       Without you the Bladen Social Club is just four walls, a roof and plenty of alcoholic
       and  non-alcoholic  drinks.    What  makes  for  a  good  atmosphere  and  fun is  your
       presence.

       The fun part:
       There will be a quiz night on Saturday 1  April and another on Saturday the 29
                                                                              th
                                           st
       April.
       Then on subsequent months there will be other themed events.
       Dogs are welcome so on a summer evening, why not pop in for a quick drink or
       two, after walking your dog.
       The club is open from 8pm to 11:30pm on Monday and Saturday evenings and if
       there is enough demand  on Friday evenings once British Summertime is up and
       running.
 Please get in touch by Tuesday 4th April   Details of future Bladen Social Club events will be found in this magazine and on
       Parish notice boards as soon as details are finalised.
