As a not for profit village we are always appreciative of donations, large or small. Recently we received a marquee from a community member. This is the perfect addition to our outdoor area when further shade is needed. We have set it up ready for the Kiwanis Christmas Markets that are being held at the Village on Sunday the 1st November. Come and support those that support us.

Friday night the village celebrated Dolly Parton. This included Southern American food, Corn Dogs and Mac and Cheese. Dolly Parton music and Dolly impersonators. Dave won best dressed. There may have been others that looked closer to Dolly but he made us laugh the most.
Thanks to all who came and enjoyed the night.

Safety is important in every industry. Here at the village we have WHS Consultants and we receive regular email updates on legislation and best practice.
Today we received the story below. This really hits home how important safety is and that its not a new issue. Its always been important but not always managed appropriately.

On Monday 17 October 1814, a terrible disaster claimed the lives of at least 8 people.

A bizarre industrial accident resulted in the release of a b**r tsunami onto the streets of London when a wooden vat of fermenting brown porter ale burst. The 6.7metre high vat was held with massive iron rings and contained brown porter ale (similar to stout).

On the afternoon of 17 October, one of the iron rings around the tank snapped. About an hour later the whole tank ruptured releasing hot ale that took down the back wall of the brewery. The force of the escaping liquid dislodged the valve of another vessel and destroyed several large barrels that added their contents to the flood.

Somewhere between 580,000 to 1,470,000 litres of b**r was released, described as a “tsunami over 4 ½ metres high”.

The wave of b**r swept into St Giles Rookery, a densely populated London slum area, where many of the city’s most vulnerable lived in crowded underground cellars.

Tragically, eight people were killed.

Hundreds of people scooped up the b**r, drinking it, and one person died from alcoholic poisoning.

The brewery was taken to court over the accident. The Coroner’s inquest declared the b**r flood an "act of God" and nobody was responsible, the eight people had lost their lives “casually, accidentally and by misfortune”.

Investigation Finding

The investigation found that this was not the first time the 317 kilogram iron hoops had slipped off the cask. A witness said that the hoops failed three or four times a year, without previous problems, and a passive toleration existed that “these things happen.”

An hour before the tank burst, a storehouse clerk inspected the tank and noticed an iron hoop had slipped off the cask. He reported this to his supervisor who advised him to note it in the maintenance log to be fixed at a later date.
