Food Hygiene Course PDF Print Email

I have a preliminary date for the basic food hygiene course of 13th  November, I am happy to host this although it may be a bit cozy!! (we are just outside Scunthorpe)

Could I have confirmation from everyone who expressed an interest please?  We  will need (non refundable) payment in advance too, cheques made payable to the "LSSSC" and sent to Chris Fletcher, the final cost will be £25 per person and can only go ahead if we get at least 15 people.

 

You can pay online here.

 

Places will be allocated on a first paid, first in basis. However we should be able to acccomodate everyone that has expressed an interest so far. 

 

The course will consist of completing a study pack in advance of the day and a 4 hour revision session and test.  This should suit most people especially those who have held a hygiene certificate in the past.

Thanks
Sharronx

Country Markets PDF Print Email

Country markets are what were formerly known as WI Markets . Country markets are a co-operative which offer a retail outlet to small producers of home produce and handmade crafts. There is a nominal fee of 5 pence for joining and as part of your membership you are covered by their public liability insurance. collective produce is displayed on one stall and manned by volunteers . A 10% commision on sales is taken to cover costs and any money due to you from sales is paid monthly. I think if you sell food you have to do a Food hygiene course which they can organise but there is a charge . There are already many markets in Lincolnshire (links below) but I did (ambitiously) wonder if we could set up our own at one of the regions farmers markets). check out the website and let me know what you think.

A cautionary tale PDF Print Email

Because of the hot weather I have been leaving extra water out for our Jacob sheep. Today one of our lambs kicked over a bucket and managed to get the handle and bucket stuck between her fore and hind legs with the bucket sticking out from her flank at 90 degrees. This immediately panicked all the sheep who charged around the pasture being chased by a strange creature with a black protuberance. The sheep were so upset that they would not even follow me withsheep nuts into the pinfold. A long hot sweaty pursuit ensued until I finally caught the lamb and removed the bucket. I immediately removed the handles from the water bucket. My foolishness caused unintended stress to the flock. It seems funny now but it was a nightmare in the heat at midday.
