Local author: Kirstie Pelling's debut novel published

We love reading books and finding new authors to talk about, and when it's someone we know from our village it's even better!

So can we introduce you to Kirstie Pelling's new novel, hot off the press: "Life's a Catastrophe".

It's funny, it's romantic, it has cats, and it's a will they... won't they... sort of tale (or should that be tail?!)

Highly recommended debut novel, and we look forward to reading more from Kirstie.

P.S. Villagers with long memories may recall her amusing articles for Burton News too.

"I'm Alan Hubbard, who are you?" book by Alan Hubbard, Burton-based author

Burton author, Alan Hubbard, publishes book

We've known Alan Hubbard for a long time, he's a near neighbour of ours, so when we heard that he has written his life story, "I'm Alan Hubbard, who are you?" we felt he deserves a mention on BurtonWeb News. The book is a chunky tome: some 337 pages, and is peppered with an assortment of colour and black and white photographs illustrating Alan's life.

Parking in Burton

PARKING FOR RESIDENTS

Burton-in-Kendal Parish Council is seeking information.

The Parish Council is looking into solutions to the parking problems some residents encounter in the Village.

Although the Parish Council does not own any land there is a possibility of a potential car parking facility for anyone who is currently struggling to park their vehicle or vehicles.

This is in the very early stages and to move it forward the Parish Council needs to make sure there is sufficient need.

There would a cost to users and it would be approximately £250-£300 per annum.
