Lions Club of Rutland Christmas Collecting at Tesco Oakham Photograph


Lions Club of Rutland
collecting for the poor and hungry folk
who live in Rutland this Christmas at 
Tesco Oakham.

Oakham police Inspector Johnny Monks wont like this 
photograph he feels I put my safety at risk by taking 
photographs of public activity like this.

I don't think I was in any danger from this Lion he looked friendly,
more than could be said about Mr Tyers who was standing to
my left a very angry Lion indeed. I made a risk assessment having 
a friendly Tesco security guard nearby would surely protect me 
from any predatory Lion!

Any way if your visiting Tesco today or the next few please 
consider buy something extra to help the needy this Christmas
(watch the use by dates on Christmas range, I purchased some tarts
dated for next week wont keep to Christmas)

Oakham in Bloom 2010

This garden was planted by volunteers of Oakham in Bloom in March 2010
with funding from:

Cory Environmental Trust in Rutland

Friends of Oakham in Bloom

Lions Club of Rutland

Oakham Memorial Institute

The Rutland Trust

Relatives and friends of Mr Gerald Clark (1931 - 2009)

Friends and Colleagues at RCC of Lynn Ralph 1953 -2009)






Once again well done Oakham in Bloom another grand job done but why do we have to have these awful signs that detract from your good work. The leader of Rutlland County Council has stated publicly there are to many signs in the county probably one of the few things I agree with.

I see clearly this sign contains a memorial for two local residents, I am don't disrespecting their memory. I am sure this will be said. I have been critical of these signs since you spoilt the work along Burley Road with Kitchen adverts that you need to stand in the road to read.

a small sign on the wall may have been more appropriate.

I wonder why you need planning permission for a temporary banner and no such planning permission for this type of permanent sign. Each year I like to photograph the Boat at Stamford Road I have not done so this year because Discover Rutland Sign is blocking the shot.
