from the Editor

Christmas has come and gone once again - the family time of goodwill

and the giving of presents. It is

hoped the News magazine will provide

an hour or two of pleasure and read­ing in the New Year when life has resumed a normal pattern once again.

� public local enquiry took place

on Cecemoer 10th regarding the

Gbolition of a footpath alongside [;reenfields. The footpath as such

disappeared a long time ago but the

Ramblers' Association wanted to revive it. The result will not be

known for several weeks.

Fund raising is still going on by

the Clock Repair Working Party. Work is now advanced and it is

hoped that final completion is near. It's been 12 o'clock on the Church

for too long! A cookery book by

�rs. Sheila �oule is being sold now

for the benefit of the Clock Fund.

Full details are shown elsewhere in

the magazine but the book can be

well reco�mended at £1.75, making a good New Year's present for those

you missed at Christmas.

Finally I would like to pay a tribute to all those who help to

produce the magazine, giving of

their time and skills so willingly, and not forgetting the considerable

number who deliver the books - most

of them from the very first issue.

� Happy New Year to all - and all tne reader� in 1986.

Parish Council News

The Parish Council would like to

wish everyone a Happy New Year.

No doubt there will be changes in 1986 in all our lives; we hope that they will be for the better.

1985 has been a busy year for your

Parish Council and 1986 promises even more. A new feature intro­duced on the monthly agenda is a regular item "Police f"latters".

Our local constable attends and

notes any comments by residents

and parish councillors on policing in general. It is also an opport­unity for the police to communicate

with the village. The scheme is working well.

If you have any comments to make, whether on policing or any other

subject, you can make your views known to any parish councillor and they will raise them on your behalf. Better still come to the Parish Council meeting. The first item

on the agenda is for members of the public to ask questions or address parish councillors on any

relevant subject. We would like to see more people making use of this facility. Meetings start at 7.30 pm and are held at MulsRnne Park.

We were impressed by the level of support expressed by villagers

backing the Parish Council and West Lindsey District Council's opposition to Oixon and Hogg's proposed development off Scothern Lane. The application was rejected.

Notwithstanding a strong public meeting in the village and a petition of over 400 signatures,

Brownies Are you between 7 - 10 years old? Have fun, learn skills, gain badges and make friends. Join the Wednesday afternoon Brownies 3.30 - 5.00 pm at the H.Q. Vicarage

Lane. Contact the leaders:-

plus numerous supporting letters from villagers, we regret to inform you that Dixon and Hogg have appealed against the decision to the Department of the Environment. Your Parish Council and West Lindsey

D.C. have asked the Secretary of State to hold a public enquiry so

that everyone has the opportunity to have "a say". We have written

to Edward Leigh M.P. asking for his support. When the date of the

enquiry is known, we shall write to

you again and ask for your active support. This issue is one of vital planning principal for our village.

On a happier note, during the past year we have bought land for the

provision of tennis courts and

built a considerable extension to

the car park at the Mulsanne Park

Complex. A grant of £1,000 has

been made to the Village Hall Committee to help with the cost

of roof replacement. The Parish Burial Ground has been tidied up

and a purpose-built rubbish incinerator constructed.

Some of you will be enjoying the new seat at the corner of Kingsway/ High Street.

Le are always pleased to consider requests for improvement or pro­

vision of any village facility.

A scheme is now in hand for improved lighting of the Village

Green/Church Street/Vicarage Lane

area.

Finally a note for your diary -the Parish Council Election will

be in IVJay 19E!6.

Coming Up Roses Seventeen year old Jackie Key of

Willowfield Avenue, Nettleham, is

a determined young lady who knows exactly where she is going. A former pupil of William Farr School

Jackie is working very hard to

become fully qualified in the art of Floristry - not to be confused

with flower arranging.

As well as working full-time for

"Flowers by Suzanne" in Bailgate

Jackie attends Clarendon College

in Nottingham one day a week.

There she is able to learn the

practical skills and theory involved

in the complex job of Floristry.

Back at work she is able to put into

practice what she has learned.

It does in fact take about seven years to become fully qualified and

this two year course is only the

first stage for Jackie. In a recent flower design competition organised

by the Interflora Group she was a winner at her first attempt from a catchment area which took in

Lincoln, Newark, Skegness, Matlock,

Nottingham and Loughborough. This

really was some achievement.

The theme for the competition was a Christmas design for the children's

ward of a hospital. After winning

Jackie decided to present her entry

to the Ruston Ward of Lincoln County

Hospital where it is now on show. Jackie's ultimate aim is to have

her own business hopefully in the

Lake District. She sees this as an

area of great potential where, at

the moment, little exists for her type of service.

In order to achieve this, however, and remain successful Jackie is

realistic enough to admit that she will need to know the business "back to front", and this she

intends to do. Floristry is com­

pletely new to me and when I asked

her about it,Jackie quickly said "Please don't think this is just flower arranging, there is a lot more to it than that. It takes in

floral displays for funerals, weddings and other occasions. Not

just the arrangement but also the construction of wreaths, bouquets

and sprays. The massing of

wreaths, displays for terrarium and the complex study of Botany".

A good all round knowledge of

people is essential and part of Jackie's training will include

the handling of people in a range of situations. Discussions con­

cerning floral arrangements with

bereaved relatives, those of the

bride and groom and those cele­

brating birthdays or anniversaries

all require a different under­standing and a different tone of

voice. Skills need to be devel­oped, therefore, to make the dis­

tinctions.

The determination shown by Jackie

is nothing new. Having had an interest in this type of work for

some time she tried to relate it

to a Youth Training Scheme. Unfortunately no one was willing

to take her on. She decided, therefore, to take the initiative

and contacted the Lincoln Chamber

of Commerce who took up her case. With their help she was eventually

offered a training place in the

shop where she now works. This

ended with Jackie producing the best ever Training Diary by a

student and the offer of her pres­ent job. She was on the way.

She has a long way to go and is aware of this. But if resolution

and determination mean anything, and I'm sure they do, then this young lady will reach her goals

and the business jn the Lake

District could well become a

reality.

The Naturalist

I was collecting some vegetables from the garden shed, when what

appeared to be a dead leaf in the corner of the ceiling caught my

eye. I assumed it must have blown

in during the autumn, when the

door had been left open, and had

adhered to a spider's web.

Yet somehow it was the wrong colour for a dry and withered leaf, and on closer inspection it turned out to

be a small tortoiseshell butterfly

with wings tightly closed, endeav­ouring to survive the bitter cold of the winter months in the compar­

ative warmth of the garden shed.

The life expectancy of a butterfly in the wild would normally be num­

bered in weeks or even days, for

there are many hazards that face

these fragile and delicate creatures,

and they must seek a mate and ensure

the continuity of their species before they perish.

The eggs are usually laid on the

leaves of the common stinging nettle

which is the main food of the small tortoiseshell, and often during the spring and summer months, communal

groups of the greenish-black spiky

caterpillars may be seen devouring

the plants. These larvae seem com­

pletely immune to the vicious sting­

ing hairs which clothe the stems and leaves of the nettles, and the inges­

tion of the irritant fluid these

plant cells contain may even render

the caterpillars distasteful to pre­

datory birds.

The caterpillars spend their entire

lives in the security and natural protection of the nettles, eating

constantly and only stopping to shed

their skins a number of times as they grow progressively larger.

Eventually they crawl down the stem and seek a suitable site, usually

quite near the ground, to pupate.

The caterpillar then spins a silken pad from which it hangs head down,

and the final larval skin is shed, revealing the pupa or chrysalis.

Soft and pale green at first, it

subsequently changes to � light

brown colour with metallic gold

flecks as it hardens, and it is within the armoured protection

of this pupal case that the meta­

morphosis is completed, with the

adult insect or imago emerging

some days later to start the cycle all over again.

When the colder days of autumn arrive, butterflies seek a sheltered

place to survive the winter, and many find their way into the crev­

ices and corners of our houses and outbuildings, where they patiently

await the warmer days of spring.

Alas, our winter resident was not

to live to see the springtime sun­

shine, and to venture forth on

frail wings to seek the strength­

giving nectar of the first spring

flowers. It must have stirred prematurely and, perhaps lured by

the deceptive warmth of the winter sun through the glass, had flutt­

ered to the window where it had

become ensnared in the untidy

tangle of web cunningly placed there by a large spider.

When I returned to the shed some

days later, two pairs of brightly

coloured wings were all that re­mained, and for a moment I mentally

cursed the spider that was respons­ible for the destruction of this

beautiful insect. And yet one can­

not reproach the spider, for its instinct is the survival of its

own kind, and were it not for the continuous efforts of countless

members of its family, we in turn

would suffer the consequences of a massive increase in destructive and dangerous flying pests.

Despite the loss of this particular

butterfly, there would still be

many others which would come through

the winter in safety and whose off­spring would continue to graoe our gardens with their brilliant colours

and delicate flight. c

Operation Raleigh-Being There A good adventure needs the right ingredients, opportunity, travel, action, guts and nerve. All were there in abundance for seventy-five venturers who set off on the Peru­Phase of Operation Raleigh, amongst them Chris Helson of Ashtree Avenue, Nettleham.

Organised by the World Scientific Exploration Society under the direc­tion of John Blashford Snell, Opera­tion Raleigh is an opportunity for people to visit under-privileged countries, engage in a variety of projects and, at the same time, experience the adventure of a life time.

After a rigourous weekend at Notting­ham, during which time he took part in a series of tough initiative and endurance tests, Chris was selected. More hard work of a different kind was to follow. Money had to be found to finance the trip and life became a hard round of collecting names, writ­ing letters, attending council meet-ings and press interviews. Four months later the money was there and Chris was on his way - destination Lima, Peru.

He first travelled to London for the initial briefing on the 11th July and after delayed and cancelled flights eventually arrived in Lima, via Madrid, on July 14th.

The flat in which he stayed was area roughly the size of Market

in an Rasen The and the rich part of the city.

remainder consisted of sprawling shanty towns - dirty and very poor. Peru also has its share of terrorists and as a result the police carry weapons of one kind or another. Before leaving Lima for the project sites Chris and the group were able to spend some time talking to the, soon to be deposed, President of the country.

Camp was set up in the village of Rafael Belfunde and the project was the building of two twenty metre bridges (soon to be changed to one

seventy metre bridge). At this time they were·badly off for equipment. They had no money and a Customs strike was holding up all their food and supplies. It took four weeks to

collect stones and sand from the river to make concrete. A long hard task as everything had to be done by hand.

The most memorable experience was the visit on Sunday, 28th July, to the village of Paz-y-Esperanza, only one year old and primitive. The villagers were, however, educated, clean and friendly. The translator introduced the party and told them of the second group who would be coming to install water pumps and build a second bridge.

Before leaving Chris and his friends were asked to stand in the centre of a circle formed by the villagers who then sang to them in Spanish and Quechua, the old Inca language. Chris's comment is worth noting -"I was so pleased to help these people who made me realise just how trivial the problems are that we moan about at home".

Unfortunately it was about this time that Chris twisted an ankle and spent four days with his foot in a hammock. During this inactive period he "kept the books" and did some sketches. His main project, however, remained the setting up of a clean water supply which the second group would finish.

Eventually came the time to leave and the Church Service on the final evening was a very emotional goodbye. The villagers had developed great respect for the group and were appreciative of the work that had

been done. Supplies and equipment had become available and the bridge was almost completed. Various mem­bers of the group, including a doctor anrl a nurse, had treated hundreds of people for worm, malnutrition and anaemia. A local lady had been taught to treat these problems and a supply of medical equipment was left with her.

With a combination of pure water and a medical centre the health of these people should improve dramatically within a year.

Chris's adventure was but one part of Operation Raleigh's four year project. He describes it as "the most incredible experience of his l.:i. fe". It took him away for three months, a short space of time but a period he is unlikely to forget.

Holiday in Guernsey Robina Harris and Sally Rand of Brookfield Avenue, Nettleham, had always wanted to visit the Channel Islands. When Len Charity began to think about his next holiday for Senior Citizens, the ladies suggest­ed this as a possibility. It just so happened that Len has a niece who, along with her husband, runs a hotel on the island of Guernsey and he decided to investigate the idea.

This eventually resulted in a party of twenty Senior Citizens setting out on Wednesday, 18th September, for a week long holiday on the famous island. The group left Nettleham at 10 am for Manchester and a four hour coach journey was made in bright clear weather with plenty of sunshine. The trip was completed by plane and the party arrived at their hotel in Guernsey at about 5.30 pm.

Sally described the flight as "abso­lutely marvellous" but then she likes flying. The Le Blanche­Charriere is a small private hotel situated a short distance from the beautiful town of St. Peter Port, characterised by undulating terrain and varying street levels. It is also a natural centre for access to such places as Sark, Jersey and Herm. From the photograph I have seen the hotel looked ideal.

During my interview with Sally and Robina it became evident that this had been more than a holiday for them. They had wanted to know what went on in a place like Guernsey. It became almost a fact finding exercise.

The inhabitants of the island are very warm, friendly and hospitable people. Always keen to make visitors welcome and willing to talk freely with anyone. They could not have chosen two more eager listeners than Robina and Sally. They discovered a great deal about the island - its cultures, habits and sound structure. Things that should perhaps make people in England think deeply about the "doubtful" society in which we live. For instance, there is no van­dalising at all and very little real crime. It simply does not happen. There is no unemployment. If people fall out of work money is provided for two months, after which they are

found work - any work, not necessar­ily what people want or are trained for - it is simply a job. There is also a very clear message - no work, no money. This may or may not be the answer to the problem but it is effective. Wages are also higher than in Britain. Nor are they keen to provide jobs for outsiders to the detriment of local people. The ordinary British worker would have great difficulty obtaining work in Guernsey. On the other hand, if you can earn at least £100,000 per year you will be welcomed with open arms and invited to buy property. V.A.T. does not exist i� Jersey and is minimal in Guernsey. The island has almost ceased to grow its world famous tomatoes because of high heating costs. Instead it has turned its hand to the production of carna­tions which, hopefully, will become equally famous.

Because the holiday was a little out of season Sally and Robina were not able to have as many boat trips as they would have liked. They did, however, manage one journey around the island. They also visited a Butterfly Farm, which sounds inter­esting, ate grapes the size of plums and bumped into a gentleman from Leicester.

All good things come to an end, however, and the time to depart this idyllic scene soon arrived. The weather had been perfect, the atmosphere friendly and the people marvellous. The Le Blanche­Charriere Hotel will never be for­fatten for its plain but beautiful food and its excellent hospitality. It could not have been bettered. Sally has two complaints - a week was too short and she would like to go by boat next time. Robina discovered that duty-free cigar­ettes make you cough.

The holiday was yet another triumph for Len Charity. His "Nettleham Travel Service" is now well known, for the best reasons. It was literally door-to-door service with both Sally and Robina high in their praise for the organisation, care taken and for the quality of the holiday.

They made it clear to me that any article dealing with the holiday should include their deep apprecia­tion of the work put in by Len and Enid Charity.

Home Winemal<ing for Beginners An increasing number of people are discovering that making wine at home is neither expensive nor difficult.

To make things simple, the first step is, you must pay a lot of attention to cleanliness. It is

vital to successful winemaking.

The following equipment required to make 1 gallon of wine is:-

Two one-gallon glass demijohns, one for making· your wine in, the other for racking your wine into when fermentation has finished. One bored cork or rubber bung One airlock One siphoning tube Six wine bottles Six corks

If you intend to make wine regularly there is other equipment you may need, these will be listed at the end.

First you must sterilise one demi­john, cork and airlock. There are several sterilising agents on the market, the type to use is a com­bined cleaner, steriliser and deod­oriser. 1-2 teaspoons to 1 gallon of warm water, rinse bottles and demijohn with cold running water.

The best wine to start with is a tin of grape juice concentrate from your local homebrew shops or super-

I markets - you can purchase red or white to make either sweet, medium or dry. Full instructions are with every kit also one pack of yeast. Open your tin of grape concentrate, pour into demijohn, add the required sugar and water, fit cork and airlock.

Keep in room temperature approxim­ately 68-70 f. If your conditions are right your fermentation should take between 3-4 weeks. Your fer­mentation will have started when you see bubbles begin to escape through

the airlock.

When fermentation has finished remove to a cool room. From day

to day you will see your wine clear­ing. When completely clear, steril­

ise your other demijohn, rinse with cold running water and siphon wine. This is called racking. Try not to disturb sediment. Put in one or

two Campden tablets as per instruct­ions on tin.

Optional extras:-

wine hydrometer and jar wine filter kit corking gun campden tablets cleaning brushes

Visitors to Nettleham County Infants School A visit by the School Nurse, Mrs. Corcutt, on the 15th October was enjoyed by all, especially the gifts of toothbrushes and paste which were given out. On the 12th November "the happy mums" raised £119.03 by selling cakes, produce and raffle tickets. This sum was donated to the Junior School Swimming Pool Repair Fund. Again

on the 12th November Mr. Staples, the Road Safety Officer, paid a visit to the school and the next day saw Police Woman Daniels there with her teddy bear and the message "Never go with strangers".

Your Garden in Winter

Flowers Rock Garden Refirm plants lifted by frost. Remove decaying leaves and protect plants susceptible to wet conditions by cloches or sheets of glass.

Christmas roses As for rock garden and use slug pellets if required.

Herbaceous border Continue to remove old flower stalks and dead leaves, weeding where nec­essary. Keep off the soil if con­ditions are too wet.

Annuals �nd bj=annuals Dig and manure the ground in prep­aration for sowing and planting. During the latter part of the quarter as conditions allow, lightly fork over the soil between perenn­ials and apply a general fertiliser such as Growmore. New plants may still be planted and old ones divided.

Greenhouse December Grape vines: prune back sub-laterals to within two buds of the laterals. Rub and peel off loose bark before applying a weak solution ( 4�G) of tar wash. If possible suspend rods so that they hang down from their centres.

Bulbs: bring indoors the pot bulbs when about 2 inches of growth is visible, growing on in cool and light conditions, before bringing into warm living room conditions for flowering.

Winter flowering plants (cyclamen, cinerarias, primulas, etc.): keep in a light position, remove dead or diseased leaves. Spray or fumigate at signs of green-fly or other pests.

Chrysanthemums: cut down after flowering to about 6 inches, keep stools in a cool but frost free place so that cuttings can develop. Water with care during this time of the year but watch plants in cen­trally heated rooms which can dry out rapidly.

January

Keep glass clean to let in maximum light and ventilate when conditions allow.

Take cuttings of chrysanthemums and perpetual flowering carnations and place in a propagator with bottom heat.

February

Chrysanthemums: continue taking cuttings and pot on rooted cuttings into 3 inch pots.

Dahlias: place stored tubers in trays with moist peat packed around their lower parts, leave base of stem and crown uncovered. Cuttings can be taken when the new growths are about 3 inches long.

Fuchsias and Regal Pelargoniums (Geraniums): remove from pots, shaking out old soil and repot. Prune back to allow new growth and syringe freely.

Begonias: pot tubers into small pots with the concave side upper­most and just above soil level. Seeds of begonia, streptocarpus and gloxinia can also be sown.

Bedding Plants: seeds of antirrhi­num, lobelia, geraniums and half hardy annuals can be sown providing a heat of 55

°F can be maintained,

otherwise defer sowing until March.

Tomatoes: make a first sowing early in the month, or even in late Jan­uary, providing a heat of 55

°F can

be maintained. It is worth growing a few plants in a sunny window-sill, removing them into the warmth of the

'living room at night.

Start potting on last autumn's cutt­ings of pelargoniums, fuchsias etc. stopping the plants where necessary.

Not�. Using Cal Val Universal compost, one hundred per cent success has been achieved with Regal and zonal pelargonium cuttings and more

than ninety per cent with Perpetual carnations.

Note 2. Heating for "lean to's" and greenhouses adjacent to the house, by far the cheapest form of heating is achieved by running in a gas pipe and using a suitable gas heater, which costs about £40.

Vegetables December

Harvest late carrots and swedes. Store in frost proof shed in peat or sand. Protect parsley from frost with cloches. Get on with winter digging before bad weather sets in.

Keep an eye on vegetables in store. Get rid of or use those that show signs of going off.

January

Finish off digging. Cover rhubarb for forcing, plus F.Y.M. or compost. Lime vacant ground that has been dug over. Check over seed order and see what to grow in 1986.

Harvest as required sprouts, pars­nips, leeks and savoys.

Watch out for bird damage - cover with a net if possible.

February

Sow (with. bottom heat) cabbage, cauli's, leeks, celery and onions. Sow (under cloches) beet, broad beans, sprouts, carrots, cauli's. Cover ground first to dry out and warm up before sowing.

Box up seed potatoes for chitting.

Compost or F.Y.M. on aspargus and rhubarb.

Don't try sowing outdoors if wet and cold - leave it until it turns warmer.

F.Y.M. =Farmyard manure.

Trees & Shrubs December

Protect young conifers from poss­ible snow damage by tying branches together with sacking. Anticipate severe weather by protecting other/ newly planted shrubs with netting, straw or sacking.

Continue to plant deciduous trees and shrubs when the weather is suitable. · Also plant deciduous hedges, preparing the ground thor­oughly first, again only if the weather is suitable.

Protect pot grown shrubs by placing these in a cold greenhouse or burying the pots in the ground to protect the roots from severe frost.

Don't forget to spray your fruit trees with Mortegg (winter wash) and check all stakes and ties.

Januar_y_

Put shrubs arriving from nurseries in severe weather in a shed/garage where you can guarantee to keep out frost. Also cover roots with peat or straw until ground is suitable for planting.

Remove suckers from roses, lilacs, sumachs and other trees and shrubs. Try to disturb the roots as little as possible or more suckers may appear.

Prune wisterias to 311 or 4" of old wood. Remove all diseased or dam­aged branches from established trees and shrubs.

February

Firm back any autumn planted stock loosened by frost.

Prune spiraeas hard towards the end of the month, to within a few inches of old wood. There will be plenty of buds to produce new flowering shoots for this season.

Thin out weak growth and shorten main shoots on woody climbers. Large-flowered clematis prune to strong buds at approx. thigh high.

Don't prune early-flowering montana type at this time.

Cut out recently flowered shoots of winter jasmine.

Don't forget to spray almonds, cherries, peaches, flowering and fruiting types, with fungicide, such as Murphy Liquid Copper Fung­icide, to help protect from peach leaf curl.

Gardeners Association The Nettleham Gardeners Association has been operating now for 34 years and the first Chairman of the Club is still a member of the present committee.

A meeting was held on the 17th May, 1951 in the Chapel Hut, Chapel Lane to form a Gardeners Association within the Parish of Nettleham. There were 18 people present.

The following people were elected to serve on the committee:-

Chairman Secretary Treasurer

JYlr. G.F. Clarke Mr. Fletcher Mr. Bell

Committee - Messrs. Carter, Netrval, Bayes, Vinter, T. Dixon, Summerson and J. Knott.

Membership Fee 2/ 5d 1/-d Old age pensioners

It was at the Association's Chry­santhemum Show on the 22nd Sept. 1951, where the late David Georges blooms were outstanding, that the late Mr. Ronald Lawson, of J.W. Lawson and Sons, consented to become the Association's first President.

The first annual general meeting took place on the 17th October 1951 and shows changes on the committee, with Mr. Carter taking over as Treasurer and, for the first time, three ladies joined the committee; Sister Heath, Mrs. Hibbs and Mrs. D. Fletcher, with Messrs. T. Dixon, Netrval and Bayes standing down.

The aim of the Association was the improvement of knowledge of garden­ing principles and practice by lectures, film shows and visits. Encouragement of the social aspect of gardening by means of meetings, shows and competitions.

The Association held monthly meet­ings throughout the year and a competition was organised for each meeting, i.e.

July August Sept. October -�ovember December

3 roses vase of sweet peas 6 tomatoes 4 dessert apples

pot plant 2 heads of celery

These competitions started 1951 and no member could enter more than one exhibit per class.

The Association Show was first held in a marquee on the Bill Bailey

Playing Field, from there to the Institute, Church Rooms, Junior School and now Village Hall.

The principal winning exhibitors in the fifties were:-

Flowers - D. George, R. Fletcher, E.C. Scorer, Mrs. H. Vinter, J. Frith, J. Knott, W. Robinson.

Vegetables - D. George, J. Knott, W. Robinson, T. Reynolds, G.W. Baker, H. Vinter, J. Frith, E.C. Scorer, Mrs. Vinter and Mrs. Hibbs.

1957 - Mr. Fletcher left the area and Mr. Bowler took over as Secret­ary for one year and handed over to Mr. Metheringham in 1958.

Moving into the sixties with the meetings being held in the Institute a very well known BBC Gardening Broadcaster in Mr. John Warren, spoke to our members. The Secretary of the club was now Mr. Carter who had taken over from Mr. Metheringham in 1961.

On the social side the club had joined a yearly venture with Holton­le-Moor. This was a success but then faded out around 1970.

The principle Show winners for the sixties were:-

Flowers - Mr. E. Metheringham, K. Dixon, E.C. Scorer, c. Ellingford, C. Thompson, P.E. Lawson, c. Andrews, D. George, N. Needham, A. Simmerson, V. Gooder

Vegetables - G.W. Baker, E. Rey­nolds, D. George, E.C. Scorer.

Cakes and pastries - Mrs. Simmer­son, Mrs. H. Brooks, Mrs. H. Vinter, Mrs. H. Dixon, Mrs. E. Southward, Mrs. V. Carr, P.E. Lawson, Mrs. J. Houldon, �rs. F.W. Taylor.

From 1976 with Mr. W. Needham, Secretary, our Association has moved forward in two ways. Our membership has increased by over 5�: and our store shed carries 75+ items against 10/15 items before. These range

'

from bales of peat, bags of peat,

composts, freezer bags, perlite,

most fertilisers, liquid feeds,

canes, pots of all sizes, etc.

Fertilisers - these can be bought

by the bag or smaller quantities.

We programme from October to April

each year covering different talks

in gardening each month and most talks are illustrated with slides.

October is our A.G.�. and Quiz night. Our Show is always the second Saturday in September, this year 1986 being September 13th in the Village Hall.

Our committee has now altered since 1951, as we now have six

ladies and four men and, for the first time, we have a lady Vice/ Chairman.

Looking back over the 34 years the Association have been honoured with some very good speakers and friends from the Riseholme College Horticulture Section; their ex­perience and knowledge are invalu­able to our everyday gardeners.

Our aim now is still the same -to encourage the social aspect of gardening by means of meetings, shows and competitions.

How about a village competition? Ideas and suggestions most welcome.

Nettleham Co-worl<ers of MotherTeresa We would like to share with you the news of necessary changes sent by Mother Teresa to all her U.K. collect­ing centres. Sadly, owing to problems within India, shipping of goods to Calcutta Docks has had to be drastic­ally scaled down. In view of this, Mother Teresa has asked us not to stockpile sacks of clothes, blankets etc. until things improve, but to prayerfully distribute them wherever we find a need.

Very soon after receiving this dis­turbing news, Mexico suffered that horrific earthquake. So we were able to follow Mother's instructions by taking 17 sacks of clothing and blankets to Pickfords, who sent a container load of relief supplies from Lincoln to the stricken area.

Mother also asked us to look to the needs of the very poor families in our own country and also in Poland and to see that they receive good warm clothing and blankets this winter. These can be distributed by her own Missionaries of Charity, the W.R.V.S., Social Services and the Polish Liaison Groups. So please, if you have any of these things to spare, do p�ss them on to us. We also still need oddments of wool or old woollies to pull down, so that our elderly eo-workers can continue

knitting and crocheting blankets and shawls.

Lincoln has a large Polish Community who regularly send lorry-loads of scarce commodities to their homeland. We have made some enquiries and after much prayer feel we must help, not only with warm clothing, but also by collecting small everyday items, which we can buy cheaply and take for granted, but which are virtually unobtainable in Poland. We will let you know more details in the New Year.

We echo the words of Mother Teresa's National Links who say: "Let us pray very earnestly that if we in Britain are not able to help the poorest of the poor in India, that God will touch the hearts of others to care for them until we can do so again". In the meantime we shall follow Mother's advice and prayerfully continue working and collecting, offering help through the new doors God has already opened so quickly since India's doors closed.

Thank you for all your help, please continue to support the work and contact us if you have anything you think we can use.

Thinl< About It Seen any good car stickers lately? There seems to be a craze for them at the moment. You know the sort of thing, stickers with the message,

"Forget Oxfam, Feed Twiggy" ( or

others far less printable ) . They

can be fun. Or silly and irritating.

Or make you think. One I saw

recently said "Come back God, all

is forgiven". Think about it.

It must seem to some, almost as if

God has gone, if indeed, He was

ever there. If we look at the

world with its troubles and uncer­

tainties, its disasters and diseases,

there are probably few of us who at one time or another have not asked themselves if God really cares, if

there is purpose to life or anything worthwhile beyond. Some of you who

read this magazine will be committed

Christians, but many others will

feel the hopelessness which comes

with the belief that God has left

them.

Those who know God don't have the

answer to all things. He has

placed us in a stern and difficult

world but we have made it worse

with our stupidities. Consider

what God could do with this world

if evil and selfishness were

removed. Here are some words by

an unknown Quaker writer that you

may like to think about at the

beginning of another New Year: "I shall pass through this world

but once. Any good thing, there­

fore, that I can do; or any kind­

ness I can show to any fellow

creature, let me do it now. Let

me not defer or neglect it, for I

shall not pass this way again".

To make this a happier New Year,

the world will badly need those who put their trust in God and give Him a re�l chance. Never

mind car stickers. I like better

the message outside an Evangelical

Church in York: "Our God isn't dead, sorry about yours". Think about it.
