Picture of the Day
Winteringham folks at the sea!
Latest photo of Winteringham people on holiday at Cleethorpes shows a rather unhappy Flyer Robinson (but he cheered up in later photos!) in the early fifties.
Since this photograph appeared yesterday (Monday), Flyer has researched Jimmy Slater’s Follies (see left side of photo), and discovered he was an interesting character, with details on this flickr page.
Latest Mystery
A wash-house was a feature of many Winteringham houses, and very useful they were then, and now! However, where could this one be?

 A New Mystery
Ken Jacobs
This one was found last Sunday by one of our club members at Winterton on another charity rally dig, (we raised £33 which has been donated to All Saints to buy a Christmas tree to decorate the church this Christmas). It is a bronze and gold gilded. This is a lovely and quite rare find.

A cautionary tale!
A warning to other local cat owners.
Our cat didn't come home last Thursday (26 Nov). By Friday afternoon, we'd got quite worried about him, as he still hadn't turned up. My husband had been scanning the field at the side/back of our house, where our cat liked to roam (we are the last house on the right on Low Burgage, as you go towards the Haven), and suddenly spotted something way down in the field. He went to check it out and it was our cat: he'd been attacked by something (?a fox), and looked like he's been dead for a couple of days. He had two large puncture wounds in his flank and, to me, I suspect he'd been throttled; but he hadn't been attacked out of hunger.
I'm hoping that this is some rare and unfortunate occurence. I can't imagine what animal could have inflicted these wounds on our cat other than a fox. I would be interested to know if anyone else has experienced a problem like this, or if anyone could possibly suggest an explanation. It's also worth pointing out that there are quite a few neighbourhood cats who roam the fields at the back of our house, and owners might want to keep their cats in at night if possible.
