Editorial Here comes the second edition with the same layout but very different contents. Try the summer recipe, the crossword, but do take the advice given in the article re l'1edicines.

Judging by the nuraber of congratulatory messages received the first edition of the "News11 was a_ppreciated. Copies have been sent as far as Dartmoor, Darkest Africa and to Dallas in Texas!

I do ask all secretaries of organisations to sup :art the Diary page, and let us have your dates. It's free and ca.n only hel:p to avoid the clashing of dates, and consequent lack of income or interest.

Parish Council History 1iig:hlighted

If recent \.Jaunty Council floodlighting experiments at NetLleham Parish Church prove the scheme to be financially vJOrkable, then the Parish Council may go through with its project to �)rovide 3 sodium litsilts, mounted a.."ld ni ted to enhance the stone­work and structure of the 11th century building. So All Saints' Church, the "lesser place of 1r10rship on the Plain'' in medieval times, may soon compete for attention with its greater neighbour on the Hill.

'!'he quote given for expenses for which the Parish Council Hould be responsible, is t1,431, although this may be reduced to about £1,000 by voluntary labour in laying the cable. Running costs vwuld be about £50 per year. The idea has received support from Nettleham H.I., and the :Parochial Church Council- and a vrarm welcome from the Vicar, the Revd. Tony Burton.

Presentation

There was a pat on the back for Nettleham villagers who seem really to care about appearances, from hr Richard lJepler, Lincolnshire County Chairman of the Council for the l)rotection of Hural bllgland, at a tree planting ceremony which took place on the Green on Saturday 26th l"iarch. ¥Jr. l'epler was there to present, on behalf of CPRE a sapling oak, a certificate, and a smart blue plaque, assigning first place to Nettleham in the Small 'l'own / Large Village section of the 11Best Kept Village" competition, judged last July. Introducing 1'-Ir. :Pepler, Councillor Alf Frith, chairman of Nettleham :Parish Council, said that Nettleham's success \vas a great credit to all concerned. Particular mention ';TaS made of Ivlr. Tom Lane's outstanding contribution to the general tidiness of the village conservation area.

After the talking, came the action, left mostly to that well known wellie wearer, CouncilTor John Hill, vlho, having dug the hole, \vas expected also to plant the tree, which he did, surrounded by a crowd of Parish Councillors and residents.

At the same event, another tree vras planted on the Green by Councillor and l·lrs John Robinson of Highfields. John and }!;ileen, better known perhaps, from their close association 11i th a charming Boxer dog called �1 ins ton, gave the tree, an Indian Redwood Sequoia to me village. 'I'his species Has planted widely in &lglish parkland around the time of liaterloo, 1815, when it became known as the "1/ellingtonia". '!'he than."tcs of the Parish Cou.."lcil and the village, are cx:oressed to Councillor and I•lrs li.obinson.

In Your Garden Now

Ground Covor_.n::mts to solve the pr�l:�Jem of 1-.reeding round shrubs Due to the popularity of shrubs e>,nd conifers, the question arises as to what to

plant underneath them to provide cround cover and colour throughout the year and yet smother the constant threat of ·vreeds.

Just a few of the follouing plants, most of VThich co,n be raised from seeds sovm at this time of the year or can be purchased from nurseries. Planting out in September - October along 1vich Spring flm·rering bulbs.

Polyanthus, Pansy, Viola, Primrose, Aubreit?, Auricula, Campanula, Calandula, Saxifrage, Dianthus, Sedums, 'l'h;ymus, Lily-of- the-Valley etc. Nost of these plants are both shade and moisture loving and a good dressing of

peat, compost or rotted manure before planting Hill ensure their \vellbeing. I'Jaintena.nce from then on will consist of an annual top dressing of peat etc. and an occasional splitting up of the plants. Clear out any dbad foilage.

Inter planted vri th Spring flovJering bulbs, Daffs, Crocus, Tulips, Buscari, Snow­drops etc. these viill ensure good ground cover and a lasting show of colour.

Vegetables June Sow in open - Erench and Runner Beans, Swedes, Beetroot, Lettuce, Peas, Calabrese. :barth up Potatoes. Keep down -r,.reeds.

Plant out - Brussel, Sprouts, 'ilinter Greens, outdoor tomatoes.

July Sow more Carrots and Salad crops - Lettuce, Radish, Spring Onions. Try early potatoes for later ho.rvesting. Shallots \·rill be ready. Keep ahead of weeds. Hater crops IF Heather is dry.

August Sow parsley, winter salads. Plant out broccoli, Hinter cauliflowers. J:.lid August some s�n:·ing cabbage. Pre_;)2re onions for hervesting by bending over tops to let the sun ripen the bulb.

Roses Now is the time to spray Rose trees monthly against olackspot, m�ildew and rust. Any well knmm systemic fungicide i.e. 13enlate, Nimrod T or T".;unblebli te will do the job.

Check your trees for Greenfly and if present spray with systemic insecticide i.e. 'l'umblebug. Feed your trees agprox. once a month, especially when the first full flush of blooms are out; when over, a handfull to the square yard of a good Rose fertilizer will help build your trees up again for more flowers later. Hoe around your trees and cut away any suckers when they appear.

Cut back Brooms when they ha.ve finished flowering, cutting hs.rd to prevent the shrub seeding. Do not cut into the old \vood when pruning.

Overgrmm Pyro canthus (F'irethorn) can be cut back in June after flo'!Tering. \-ieepine Buddleia (Al ternifolia) This should be l)runed and. shaped after flowering

June or July. Both rlum and Cherry '.l'rees should be pruned if necessary in July to prevent silver­

leaf, as both are susceptible -eo this disease. If you h:cve to cut, paint the wound 1·1i th Arbrex or similar. June is a very good ;,ime eo take Heather cuttings. Take your young shoots, no longer than 1" in lengch, using a good rooting compost of 50�v ,Jilver I-·erli te and 50% Peat, dipping your cuttings in a rooting mixture. Silver Perlite is used at 3 to 1 of Peat for propagating delic2te cuttings such as Carnations, l:Uchsia, Geraniums, etc. :&'or Soil-less com�Jost use One of Silver Perli te to 3 of Peat and equivalent pro:_Jortions of Nutrients such as Vi tax ,t,Lj., Chempak, J:)hostrogen. See makers instructions.

July Prune Jasmine and l'hiladelphus (l•J.Ock Orange) after flowering.

Patio During the summer months be careful vri th your Patio Plants and trees '.·rhich are set in plastic containers. 'l'hose containers drmv the heat to the plants roots: T•h.llch wit::.1 Feat and �'iater everyday. Stone containers, although expensive, keep the roots cool and ensure be�-::.er )lants.

From The Methodist Minister Places often have an atmosphere. Nettleham does� Whenever I come into the

village I feel I am coming into a real community. Not just a collection of houses, but a gathering of people who care for one another and for the place in which they live. That this feeling of mine has some substance is amply borne out by the contents of your first Nettleham News. The Directory and Diary reveal a great deal of concern and caring. This should be a cause for general thankfulness. It certainly gladdens the heart of christian folk, for one half of the Christian Nessage is, "Love your neighbour". Of course, it could be claimed that christians and their separate denominations have not helped this feeling of community. However, things are changing. One interesting and thrilling event not in your last Diary viaS a ne\.,r bi-monthly "Happening". It is called, appropriately, "Come together". It is a gathering for all christian folk of the village, whether they worship here or not, and indeed, for folk who h�ve as yet no allegiance to Christ but would like to lcnow more about him. The next in the series is:

July 2nd Subject: Prayer. Ivleetings are held in the Junior School from 3p.m. u1·1til 6})•Ll• Children are

catered for but please bring along a little food to share \d th one another. Sometimes, however, community means conflict. It is bound to. vie do not all

think and feel the same. At the moment v1e at the Chapel fed that vle are at the centre of conflict. Our Car Park proposal has met with less than universal acclaim. I will not use this space to argue \vhat might be claimed to be a partisan case. Nay I simply say three things. Y.le understand the points of view and feelings of the objectors. In fact some of our own folk are not entirely hap::.JY about the proposal. Secondly, may I ask you to understand our motive because of the grm.;th of our congregation and increased attendance at C�urch we do not wish to be a nuisance or the cause of an accident. Thirdly, we are willing to listen to objections and advice. If you have an alternative proposal please let us know. \{e Hant this community to stay just that, a community.

Revd • .David Bannister.

Food for Thought Summer

In spite of record rainfall over the past few vleeks, the first of the summer fruits are appearing in our gardens and the greengrocers. The rain seems to suit rhubarb- mine is a bumper crop. Soon vlill come strawberl'ies, follm.,red by raspberries, loganberries, blackcurrants, red currants, and in Autumn plums, apples and blackberries. All these fruits can be used in the following simple recipe which is both economical and nutritious.

Jvlethod

Summer Jvlousse 400 g. fruit 1 50 ml. via ter 1 jelly 1 sml. can evaporated Sugar to sweeten.

1 lb. i- pt.

milk (7 oz. )

1. Lightly poach the fruit in the \·later, unti_l soft. 2. 1/hilst still hot stir in the jelly until completely dissolved, add the sugar. Place

on one side to cool. 3. \fuip -che chilled evaporated milk until thick and creamy. 4. Fold in the cool fruit mixture and pour into a glass serving dish. 5. Leave in the refrigerator to set.

For special occasions the mousse can be set in individual glasses and dredged with grated dessert chocolate.

Why not grow all your own fruits too?

The Parish Council have a limited amount of allotments available for letting. Details from Clerk of the Parish Council, 2 The Crescent. Tel: 751570.

Medictnes When the Doctor prescribes Antibiotics, always finish the course. Do not stop

taking them when you feel better, or you may find you get your symptoms back again. Take medicines or tablets as directed, if you are not sure find out. Don't keep old tablets/medicines; throw them away down the toilet or take them to

the Health Centre. ALL ointments, powders, drops, medicines and some tablets have an expiry date. Usually on the package so check before use, they can change chemically if they are out of date and therefore it may be dangerous to use them.

NEVER take or use anything given by the Doctor to a relative or friend. Medicines should not be shared.

If the Doctor gives you a prescription, and the tablets/medicine upsets you, brings you out in a rash or you have any other side effects, report back to the Doctor and he will advise you and probably alter your prescription. If they don't vtork and you don't feel any better go back and tell the Doctor he won't know otherwise; DON'T put them in a drawer and not take them and complain.

Always keep medicines in a high preferably locked cupboard away from children. If a child should take any of your medication try to estimate how much and what they have taken and get in touch with the Health Centre or Hospital. Tablets you think quite harmless may be dangerous to a child. Always check, a quick telephone call will put your mind at rest.

There is no magic pill for the Common Cold or Influenza. Fluids, soluble aspirin and bed is the best treatment. If you have a complication then you should consult your Doctor.

Diarrhoea and Vomiting is another common complaint. In very small children give small amounts of 11fluids" ( tablespoonful) every 10 minutes; not a cupfull or even half a cupfull and no food. If the'child continues to vomit in spite of this treatment after a few hours inform the Doctor, an infant can quickly become dehydrated. Older children and adults follovl the same treatment for 24 hours and usually things will settle. "Fluids" means v1ater - only for 12 hours and then water, glucose, lemonade, orange juice etc. Nothing with milk in i.e. tea or coffee. NO food, even cereals at all. If symptoms persist after 48 hours then inform the Doctor or earlier if really worried.

Suggestions Medicines to keep in the Home

Always keep them in a high locked cupboard even if you don't have children. You will have visitors. Remember children are curious and can climb. Don't keep many things, remember expiry dates. Plasters

Strip dressings are best, vmunds can breath, 8.nd they are economical, you can cut them to required length. Savlon or another antisentic to \vash cuts and grazes with. Bandage Crepe for sprains etc. and a cotton bandage to keep a dressing in place. Cottonwool for cleaning vmund. Gauze to make dressing with. Soluble Aspirin/Panadol for family headaches, colds, flu etc. Rennies-Settlers for family indigestion. Co:ugh Nixture 'l'he Chemist vrill advise and remember to check hmv long it \vill keep. Host cough mixtures contain some Anti Histamine in them and can make you feel drowsy; be careful not to take too much if �rou are driving or working \·Ji th machinery, it can make your reflexes �Jlower. Medicines to take on lloliday

Yake sure you have sufficient of the tablets which the Doctor has prescribed. It may be difficult to get a further supply in another town and especially abroad. If you are going abroad check with the Health Centre if you require, or it is recommended, that you should have any injections i.e. '�phoid, Cholera. Check that all the family are up to date for Tetanus and Polio. Small Children and young adults may need a booster Polio if you are going to a hot country.

For diarrhoea and "upset" stomachs be advised by the Chemist or Doctor. Prevent­ative Holiday Prescriptions are not provided on the National Health Service they must be paid for in full. Plasters, Savlon and Bandages are \vorth taking. They may be difficult to ask for in a foreign language.

A Bright Future A box of old 78s retrieved fJ.:om a dustbin in 1 ')76 launched a fifteen year old

Nettleham youngster on a career in the Record Business. lToVT t\Jenty one, AliDY S'l'L..:JE.wfiSOL is currently making a big impact as presenter of

'I'HA'J: i'.1/.0GH.Ahl·.E each Sunday evening on lLadio Liner;. One of the youngest presente:cs in the business Andy obtah:wd the job in the face of corn}!eti tion. 'Jlli!\.'1' i'l1.0G.lUU·il.i.ri,; is for �coung peorJle and related "eo issues concerninG" them. Drug .1\buse, Difficulties \·Ji th �:arents and Relationships 1:ith the _ olice, are amongst subjects aL. �.a.dy discussed. 'I'he music of modern youth hel_r;;s to identify �-Jith the shov1, j_)resentecl \·Ji th case and confidence in a cheerful bouncy style.

JJes�Ji te his tender years lindy is no stranzer to "che vrorld of recorC:.s and business. He has experience of both, CSJ.!ecialJ.y record llroduction.

'i'hings did not '.-!Ork out as intended and it \·JaS during a lean spell that Andy hit upon the idea of l!roducing records for other peo)le. 'I'he corn �any ideally wanted to run their mm inde:Jendent record label but by itself it could not l!ay and until distribution deals and advances could be obtained something had to provide the daily bread.

Unfortmm tely a lot of �)rofe�csional v1indm-.r dressing did not translate into sales ironically because of a lack of 11air �Jlay11• i.,ventually in October 1 )80 Andy decided to take the custom record side aHay from D_.AD GOOD an:� form a separate company, to be called L:X:dlli..;S &;COHiJS H.fJfLlFAC'.i'URING. A Sillcl.ll factory situated near N.i£.\·JCAS'l.'LE was set up and fully equi_._Jped for the job of �)roviding a service to the ind•2pendent labels requiring betl-.reen 25 and 10,000 copies. Alongside this Andy ac([Ll_ired premises in PARK S'I'�l.6ET LilJCOLN that previously housed Sanctuary Records, he changed the name to :EX_JRL:;SS

RECORDS and entered ·che retail record business. Heavy competition was expect .. d but Andy Has confident he could become established

Age Concern After Church Vieu flats and some bllllbralo•.-Js for the aged had been built in Nettleham,

it was felt that there should be formed a bTOup of pe9ple who could look into any needs of the over 60's, particularly vJi th regard to those living alone, or in the new Church View flats. In 1 n 4 Hi th the guidance of filiss E Briggs and Nrs 0 Pettifer and others from Social Services, Age Concern Nettleham came into being. l:ach week in Church View Common Room a group of people provide tea and cakes and some kind of entertainment for the Residents who come along. Some are brought by cars fi·om the bungalov;s, others are in residence. This becrune very po:;:mlar and another need seemed to be Hanted - vThereby those capable of walking could be taken out, and those who could not, were trans_.orted to the Day Centre in Nettleham for morning Coffee. This Has started in 1976. Since then this has grovm in popularity bringing in many people too from outside the village Hho are housebound, or lonely. This lead us on to another need, a Luncheon Club, and after many attempts at looking at this, it became �Jossible in 1982 by the excellent legacy of Mrs Mabel Briggs giving ··1s the means to go ahead 2.nd plan and buy the large equipment neeL�.ed for cooking lunches. Both the Coffee mornings and the Lunches provide a very real need for people to meet together in their m-m village and amongst their own contemporaries, and by the numbers H!w come to these it is obvious that Age Concern fills a very real need.

�1ere has been much going on in Linelands over the years vTith the Library �rolley, Trolley Sho:p, Bingo, (nmv no longer being done) Hethodist Service or..ce a month, visiting etc. But again Linelands felt that there >-JaS a greater need for the village )articipation in various 1:1ays, and so in 1:J82 "Friends of Linelands"came into being and all organisations in the village Here asl�ed to be represented. Nm·T there is a committee that looks into entertainment from time to time, visiting, and one to one relationshi}s, taking out some of the residents in v1heel chairs and t, e Churches ta�cing Holy Communion or having services. Also in the village Ar:;e Concern is mvare of the need of visiting the housebound and some of the committee do this. �le are also aware in Committee that He do leave out some people that need contact, and do not knoH anything about, but \'There l)ossible the HealJGh Centre the 'idarden of Linelands and of Church Vie\v are of tremendous help, either telling us of needs, or guic"ing us in what we do. Alongside all this He try, to do for the over 60's there is of course the excellent For-get me--not Club that meets each ',/ednesday, the Heals on \'/heels carried out by hrs. I1o:cris, and the many peorJle >"lho do so much in giving ?leasure to the Senior Citizens.

Space Invaders Do you take lodgers'! Not the two-leg(;ed variety, but those with four, six or even

eight legs, and maybe \·rings as vlell, such as fleas, cat fleas \now enjoying a population bonanza in fitted carpets) rats and mice, bed bugs and feral :pigeons. You can enr!uire for free advice about your l)articular :Pest 1'roblem from your local District Council Environmental 1lealth officer, I-ir. Bryn Jom:s at ;lest Lindsey District Council offices, 10 J?ark iJtreet, Lincoln, 'l'el: 29605.

For ecological reasons, wasps ·and bats are evicted vJi th reserve, and only if necessary as the Council's deputy ilivironmental Health officer, r'ir • .Don Horgan explains. In nature, they co:1trol potential plagues of insects uhich might othervTise menace food production, and so are among the best friends that any pest officer or farmer could wish for. Bats, handled Hith the greatest care, can be gently discouraged and moved elsewhere; says l·tr. Horgan: but emphatically not in their breeding season. He adds that Hasps are best just left alone, unless they constantly assail you, or there are young children around.

The householder can best treat ants on a Do It Yourself basis, very effectively, by applying "Nippon" or any other sui table insecticide, i-Thich is taken straight to the nest - and the queen - on the insects' mm legs, and Hhich is non-toxic to humans and pets. However, manufacturers' instructions for application should always be followed carefully. Your pest officer \>lould prefer to leave m-Tarming bees to another expert -the local beekeeper.

This free advice, plus treatment vJhich is also free, but which may be carried out only at the discretion of the officer, is available to domestic householders in the West Lindsey District Council area. Advice is free also, for commercial :premises, farms

etc. and business :premises. Here, hm-Tever, a charge is made for any treatment found ·

to be necessary.

May we ask motorists, as they drive along Iligh Street near Beckside, to keep a watchful eye for ducks on the road, particularly as there are now ducklings around as well. These mallards are very tame, and a delight to the many village children who come to feed them, but they seem oblivious to the danger of passing traffic and there has already been one fatality recently.

Tracing Your family Tree by r�r.A. Gravens

Nevor neglect the obvious. You almost certainly �mo1.-1 the full names and dates of birth of your parents, and probably of your grandparents, as \vell as your mm name and birthday. h.\ren so, every detail should be checked back to the source in government records or elsewhere.

Before going off to 'dig' in the archives, you need '�o know just vrho you are looking for. So the first step in your l'escarch should be to write dmm all you know about yourself and your family. Ask relatives to fill in the gc:"ps. Invariably an aunt, uncle or _0arent Hill turn out to be one of those _peo�Jle \'l�ose minds store n2liles, dates and details of birchs, marriages and deaths - the very subst;:mce of genealotrJ• Remember that a family record is more than just names, dates and places. It is about people what they did, vThy and how.

Look for old yhotot,Taphs, family bibles (it wa.s the custom in the 19th century to write details of births, marriages, etc. on the fly leaf).

If your ancestors belonged to a village in Lincolnshire the first )lace to sea.rch is in the Lincolnshire Archives Office at '.i'he Castle Lincoln. Hegisters of births, marriages and deaths can reveal a mass of information.

Having obtained as much information as _1ossible the next place to go in your search is the General Register Office, St. Ca therines House, King�May, London ';JC2B 6JP, which holds records of all births, ma.n·iages and deaths in .�-ngland and \!ales since 1st July, 1837. 'l'here is no c�1arge for searching, and if your name is an unusual one you could mruce a general search for all entries under your name. Here, too, if you do not already have one you can ayl)ly for a copy of your mm birth certificate and then, Horking back-· wards from the information surJplied on the certificate, look for your ]arents marriage certificate, their birth certificates, the marric:ge certificates of both sets of grand­parents, birth certificates of these grandparents and so on.

You can \Hi te and ask for a search to be done on your behalf but this \'.fill be a very ex�Jensive exercise.

If you were born in Scotland you will have to consult the Scottish Record Office, :i?.O. Box 36, li.N. General Hee;·ister House, .Ldinburgh .u.1:.1 3YY. (Scottish Certificates contain much more information than lliglish ones) .

For records before 1837 you have to consult local parish registers. Host of these are deiJosi ted in the local archives.

Then there are census returns. A census has been taken every 10 years since 1 801. You may look at these in local Libraries. Census returns Hill tell you vThere the ;Jerson was born, indicating which pa:r·ish re0isters should next be checked.

The l'lormon church has recorded parish records on a computer file and these may be examined at local archive offices. Lincoln Archive Office at the Castle have these indexes for most counties and as they are in alphabetical order of surnames, they are easy to examine. The Public Record Office, Chancery lane, London 'dC2 and a nev1 building at Kew, houses all manner of S)ecialist records such as Armed Services, Seamen, Chancery proceedings, Feet of Fines, Hearth Taxes, Patent Rolls, etc. 'l'he Public Hecord Office vlill send applicants a series of l'amr;hlets, outlining their services, on request.

'l'he best genealot3'ical records in private hands are held by the Society of Genealogists, 37 Harrington Gardens, London S.\·1.7. This includes the 'Great Card Index' and lists 3 million individuals by surrlB.IDe. 'l'he Society VTill also send details of services to
