Short Black motorbike touring book released


This month we attended the book launch of Short Black - short rides on a black bike.
The book is a description of many highlights of the Southern Highlands as seen during many short rides (or drives).  31 different cafes and restaurants are given short reviews, including the Wingello Village Store’s Un-named Cafe.
The book, designed as a “coffee table” book, provides a great resource to explain to family and friends why we live in the Southern Highlands.  We have sold a number to customers who send them as gifts to their guests who wonder why we live “so far away”, but are delightfully surprised we have discovered a secret place to live a good life.  The book has a plethora of marvellous photos of scenes you will recognise and enjoy.
There is a limited print run so we obtained enough for our customers.  The book sells for $25.00

Music under the Trees


Kathryn Hartnett is a local singer and will be the first entertainer to provide Music under the Trees at the Wingello Village Store.
On Saturday, 10 December from 1:00 to 4:00pm, while Kathryn gives us all a fine rendition of her singing talents, Pizza will be available as well as our normal great food and drinks, all in the shade of the beautiful trees in the Wingello Store back yard.
This has been fully renovated and landscaped by Don Turner (Earthworks) and Warwick Spackman (landscaping), next to the fully renovated shed by Daniel Hill (Carpentry).  These are all local tradesmen who provided great quality work.

Thieves about, 
Wingello watch out!


A few weeks ago, a chair was used to smash one of the rear windows at the shop.  The thief only succeeded in breaking the window, cutting himself and leaving blood in several places.
Police are investigating.
The same thieves attempted to break into Tallong the night before.  The following week the crooks actually broke into Tallong, smashing the window, knocking over the grocery shelves and discovered the till was empty at night time.  So no actual theft just stupid damage.
Other vandalism and petty thefts have happened, most likely from the same culprits.  Perhaps they don’t realise that their fingerprints and DNA evidence are on record and when they are caught in future all of these escapades will come back to haunt them.
The school has also been broken into twice causing much damage and minor thefts.
Your mission:
If you see someone who has cuts to his hands or arm, ask him where he got them.  We want our village to be a safe place to live.  It is thought the crooks are from somewhere between Wingello and Marulan.
Some of you know who is doing these thefts.  Don’t let them get away with it.
Remember.
This is from only a few people.  A very small group that aren’t very bright.  A vigilant Wingello will uncover the culprits.
