Missing sign

One of our new yellow signs has gone missing. It was on the grass verge before the garage approaching Yealmpton from Yealmbridge. If you spot it while out and about, please let us know.
The sign read “Easter Weekend,” as shown.

Found
Someone left a scarf at the desk, possibly a purchaser or a member on desk duty.

If anyone knows who it belongs to please contact me.
