Dear Parishioners,

As we roll over into the New Year, there are still six days of Christmas left as officially Christmas ends on January 6th with the feast of Epiphany. So I hope there is still room in your heart to extend good wishes to those you haven’t yet seen and to celebrate together the gift of light and love given by God as he reached down from heaven to give us his Son.

Thank you to all those who helped make Christmas so special this year….to the team who put together the “Festival of Christmas” at the end of November for your inspiration and hard work thank you – to Ann Roberts, Pam Bufton, Heather

Pickering, Sally Wall and Jos Whitbread. What wonderful decoration of the church and delights of gifts and entertainment for us and warming soup and mulled wine to give us sustenance at this cold time of year. Thank you to Mr Frank Rowland for bringing down the fairground organ and to Mrs Daniel for bringing the school children to play and to Philippa Alexander for singing Christmas carols and songs. Thank you, too, to the local organisations and businesses who sponsored the event or gave a raffle prize.

going off to British Heart Foundation from this grand amount.

It was lovely to see many of you at the Christmas services and a big thank you goes to Vicky and her family at the Bell House for the gift of the crib set given in memory of her father who was a vicar. It was blessed on Christmas Eve at the Crib Service and we are blessed by its presence in church.

Thank you to David and the choir for their dedication and music which inspires our worship week in and week out, but especially when the Christmas Carols get into full flow and the descants are added. I hope you enjoyed singing your favourite carols as we gave thanks for the birth of Jesus. So now it remains to wish you a very Happy New Year – may 2015 be full of abundant life and I look forward to sharing it with you. Julie

to the Kings House at Pembridge for

our Christmas dinner. Once again a

jolly evening with very good food!

Nature Notes 15/12/14

Three unusual incidents during the last

month! A Bees Nest in a local cottage

chimney was seen to be very active on

November 25th – a warm sunny day.

Two swans were witnessed colliding in

mid-air whilst flying in opposite

directions some 30 feet above an open

field. These came to ground and then

proceeded to fight. Was this the Swan

equivalent of road rage? Number 3 was

the discovery of a Grey Squirrel present

in an upstairs bedroom, having gained

entrance to the house somehow. A

concerted effort bolted the animal to the

master bedroom, where the door was

shut, the window opened, and the

squirrel duly vanished. On moving a

chest the animal shot out of the bottom

drawer and under the double bed (with a

three inch clearance!) A tail observed

near the centre of the bed, a ceremonial

sword thrust at the target, a mis-moved

bed, and the rodent decided to dash to

the window, dive onto the lawn and run

up its own tree. Amazing creatures,

whose powers of survival amaze many

of us!

Odd slight frost, leaves virtually all

down, flush of water in the river, grass

still growing, shortest day fast

approaching – it will soon be 2015!

Carols on the Green

‘Thank you’, everyone who came out to

sing carols last Friday (Dec. 12th ). We

have sung in worse weather but despite the

evening being dry our numbers were down!

However a hearty twenty or so of us sang,

with Rev Read giving us the key. We ate a

bountiful number of mince pies and drank

all the mulled wine. ‘Thank you’, too, to

everyone who provided these treats.

We do miss the brass band that first inspired

us to hold this event and if anyone has any

ideas for musical accompaniment next year

please do get in touch. Likewise if a

different time and day of the week would be

more acceptable we are willing to change.

Despite all this and the poor quality, low

cost, and therefore low heat, charcoal that I

had found, we did sing happily and John

and Joe collected £31.08 for St Michael's

St Michael’s Hospice ‘Big Tea’

Help us make a big difference by hosting a small fundraising tea party this summer! At St Michael’s Hospice, ‘The Big Tea’ is all about sharing time with friends over a cup of tea and a slice of cake. Holding a ‘Big Tea’ party is a delicious way to raise funds for the Hospice and a perfect excuse to pop the kettle on and indulge in your favourite tea party treats.

Holding a ‘Big Tea’ couldn’t be easier: pick a date this summer, then think about the type of event you’d like to have, where you want to hold your party, and invite your friends, family or colleagues.

Last year, your ‘Big Tea’ parties raised over £13,000, which helped St Michael’s Hospice provide services free of charge to local families at a time they need it the most. It doesn’t

matter how big your party is, or whether you raise £20 or £200, every penny really does count and you will be making a real difference.

For your free ‘Big Tea’ pack, which is full of ideas to make your ‘Big Tea’ party a success, contact the Fundraising Team on 01432 851000, or visit the ‘Big Tea’ page on our website at: www.st-michaels-hospice.org.uk/events

Royal British Legion

Branch Meetings. The Quiz and Christmas Draw on the 1st December was well supported and the excellent number of draw prizes raised £101 for our funds. We now take a winter break and our next meeting will be on 2nd March at the usual time and place.

Widow and Widowers Lunch. The Christmas lunch at the Corners Inn on 10th December was a great success. Although some of our regular guests and members were absent because of illness, a total of 37 enjoyed a very good meal and the draw for the three hampers raised £135. We wish to thank Sue, Richard and all at the Corners Inn for the meal and Anne Roberts and Heather Pickering for all the organisation and preparing the three hampers.

Poppy Appeal. The 2014 Poppy Appeal in the Kingsland area raised £4426.30, a slight increase on last year, but still a very fine effort by Jan Nichols and her small team of collectors. The main sources of income were as follows:-

House collections £1223.15 Static points £1055.06 (shops post offices etc) Donations £ 413.09 RBL £1000.00 Church collections - Kingsland £ 490 Orleton £ 164

Seasonal Greetings. We wish to extend our thanks to all those who have actively supported our Branch activities

during the year. In particular, our thanks to Sue and Richard at the Corners Inn for providing a base for our Branch meetings and to all the Poppy Appeal collectors and donors. A Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year to you all.

Weobley & District Local History

Society

At the November meeting David

Whitehead gave a talk entitled

“Herefordshire in the Early Middle

Ages”. David has an encyclopaedic

knowledge of the period and it is

impossible to paraphrase his talk that

lasted over an hour and covered a range

of subject matter; but there is no doubt

that anyone who absorbed even one

percent of the information David

presented would be a great deal wiser

than they were before. Did you realise

that Hereford was a very important city

to William the Conqueror and was the

9th largest city in England; the

equivalent of Leeds today? His

enthusiasm for history, particularly

medieval history, was infectious.

The next meeting will be on January

28th when Pat Millington will tell us

about William Call, who was the

illegitimate son of a Cornish Baronet

and a French seamstress. Born in Paris

in 1879, he came to school in England

in his teens and studied at the Royal

Academy of Music. He took up

photography and, up unto the mid

1930’s, produced literally thousands of

postcard views of Southern and

Midland England. Pat first became

aware of William Call from the

excellent postcards he produced of

Weobley and found researching his life

fascinating and surprising.

We hope to see you on the 28th

January

at 7.30pm at Hopelands.

Dog Poo Alert!

Over the last month or so someone

walking their dog (or dogs) through the

village is letting them poo all over the

pavement. The main area this is

happening is from the Corners Inn to

the Church, including the school.

Children are walking through this

mess, all for the sake of someone not

bothering to clean up after their dog(s).

This happens early as the mess is

normally there before 7am. This is

when other, responsible, dog walkers

have seen it.

Could everyone please pick up their

dog mess from the pavement. It is

unhygienic and some other poor soul

has to pick it up for you which is not

nice. Thank you,

Luctonians Sports Club

The 1st XV’s losing run continues

despite serious training, discussion on

tactics, game plans, and much effort by

all concerned. A positive spirit is there.

The 2nd

XV currently the high spot –

good Rugby played at pace, resulting in

some impressive results. Junior sides

all functioning, and are well-coached

and organised. The social side is in full

seasonal swing with total bookings of

pre 1st XV home-match lunches. The

match-day café near the side of the 1st

team pitch is gaining popularity.

Manned by volunteers, it is an

interesting example of supply and

demand! The treasurer/director of

finance is a busy person. All is not

doom and gloom. Cricket-coaching

courses available.
