Brimpsfield is a village in the Gloucestershire Cotswolds, nestling between Gloucester - (9 miles), Cirencester - (9 miles) and Cheltenham - (7 miles). It prides itself on being a village community, (with its own Celtic stone circle) and is inclusive of all, both young and old. There are 94 dwellings in the village with a population of approx 221 and in recent years Brimpsfield has 'grown' by the influx of young families with their children (and animals!) whilst enjoying the support and care of the more established members of the community.

An 80-year-old man went to the doctor for a general check-up. The doctor was surprised to see him perfectly healthy and happy.
Doctor: “What is the secret of your good health?”
“I get up before the sun rises and go out cycling, then come home and drink two glasses of wine. Maybe this is the secret of my good health.”
Doctor: "Okay. That means you must have good genes. Can I ask you how old your father was when he died?"
“My father died? Who told you he died?”
Doctor (surprised): "You mean you're 80 years old and your father is still alive? So how old is he now?"
“He is 102 years old. He cycled with me this morning and then also had two glasses of wine.”
Doctor: "This is very good. This means a long life is definitely in your family's genes. So how old was your grandfather when he died?"
“Hey! Why are you killing my grandfather now?”
Doctor _(puzzled):_ "You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather is still alive? What's his age?"
“He's 123 years old.”
“And he too cycled with you this morning and had wine as well?”
“No, Grandpa didn't join us this morning."
Doctor: "Why not?"
"Because he's getting married today.”
Doctor _(on the verge of going mad):_ "Why would he want to get married at the age of 123 ?"
“Who said he wanted to get married ? He had to be forced.”
Doctor shouted: "But *_why ?_*
“Because the girl is pregnant.”
*_After this, the doctor closed his clinic & has been cycling and drinking wine regularly ever since.

A plea to dog-walkers in the village, (as well as visitors to the village), to CLEAR UP AFTER THEIR DOGS - something that should always be done, but particularly at this time when more people are out walking and taking exercise and when we all need to heighten our hygiene standards in general. There is no excuse for not clearing up after your dog; the Parish Council has provided sufficient dog bins in and around the village that are regularly emptied.
There is an argument that we should not report our potholes in and around the village to slow down the 'rat-runners however if you wish to report pot holes please
