The pupils, living in the surrounding villages of Lockeridge, West Overton, East Kennett, Fyfield and Avebury are offering their homes up to allow people to drop off. The donations will go to Love Marlborough Kids Meals which is providing food parcels to those in need in the area. They are asking for everything from packets of pasta to tins of tomatoes. Donations are sought until February 11, and the school asks anyone who wants to donate to contact them for details of the drop off points.

16 great whiskeys for a sip of holiday cheer
Craig LaBan
I can only speak for myself, but after the historic awfulness of 2020, I’d appreciate a gift of great whiskey wrapped up in a bow. I suspect I’m not alone. So I made sure my annual tradition of suggesting several bottles for the holidays was undertaken this year with extra rigor and, of course, adhering to stringent social distancing guidelines for my team of tasters to sniff, sip, and banter our way through the 30-plus candidates to land on this final list of 16.
As always, there’s a range of styles, prices and origins, from Europe to Asia, Kentucky, Philly, and Mexico (yes, for El Whisky). Each has their own virtues. But shared with a special person in your bubble, each can offer a taste to traverse the world, transcend the moment, and warm the mood with a sip of cheer.
