Yvonne Green 01506 440881 / 0750455188­1yvonnegre­en55@ gmail.com It’s Windball Cricket time here at Livingston Cricket Club on Friday 8th June from 3pm and we’re looking for teams to come and take part. Windball cricket is not unlike rounders and is played with a soft ball so it’s suitable for sporty and non -sporty people alike. If you fancy some fun with a group of 8 friends, colleagues or even neighbours then get in touch. We’ll start from 3pm so that parents can bring their children along if you want to....perhaps as a Mexican wave at the side of the ground . There will be a Bbq and beers for our teams so why not make a day of it? Costs will be confirmed shortly so watch the Cricket Club Social Facebook page for more info.

Wellhead Farm Appeal West Lothian Council and Murieston Community Council failed to convince the appeal Reporter to dismiss the appeal. The Reporter consequent­ly fell in favour of the Wallace Land Investment­s who have now placed the site on the market. Once a buyer is in place a full Planning Applicatio­n will be sought. However as the Reporter has awarded a planning applicatio­n in principal there can be no further challenge to the developmen­t other than ensuring that the conditions under the planning applicatio­n in principal are fully applied.
