‘Ne’er cast a clout till May be out’ English proverb
The origin of this saying dates back to the 18th century, its meanings however are less clear. The � rst part means simply ‘don’t discard your winter clothing’ but ‘till May be out’ has more than one interpretation! Some think it refers to the month of May, others believe it is the May blossom of the Hawthorne that we need to wait for.
Which ever version you prefer there haven’t been many opportunities to discard winter coats yet this year, and I
for one hope that May will bring with it the promise of warmer weather.
The June celebratory 100th issue of Tickhill Today will be out around the time of the Bank Holiday at the end of May, anything you would like included should
be with me by Friday 10th May - quite early this month due to the way the weeks fall, so don’t miss out.

We have just had a day out in Much Wenlock, the small shropshire town, similar in many ways to Tickhill, and with its own poetry festival, now in its 3rd year, with Carol ann duff y (poet laureate) as its patron. The highlight of our trip was not the poetry or the performances we saw, but the general activity in the town, of people getting together to enjoy events and discuss the relative merits of what they had seen. The town was very busy (many, presumably like us from elsewhere), the tea- shops and pubs were heaving and business was brisk. This is what lies ahead for us with the fi rst T- Fest now looming in september. at Much Wenlock we paid proper ticket money for one evening event, more than the ticket price for a whole days worth of activities at T Fest, which is promising to be Yorkshire good value.
Cast in Doncaster will be opening its doors soon, the new performance venue on Sir Nigel Gresley Square. It’s called CAST as it is at the heart of Don-CAST-er….and punning aside, a new cultural venue in Doncaster is a welcome thing and with the opening of its doors I very much hope that there will be some exciting and innovative, diffi cult and demanding work shown in the town.

is it really true that exercise can make you feel good?
answer: When you cycle, swim, run, or carry out any other form of endurance exercise, your pituitary gland releases substantial quantities of ‘endorphins’, chemicals which can block sensations of pain and produce overall feelings of euphoria.
do i need to go to the gym to exercise?
answer: The simple answer to this is NO! Walking, riding your bike, playing football with the kids are all great forms of exercise that do not need to be performed in the gym. Everyday household chores such as cleaning and gardening also work the body and are all forms of physical activity.
do i need to buy some weights to exercise at home?
answer: The simple answer again
is NO! Try using plastic bottles fi lled with water to make your own weights, or lifting a bag with books inside to provide resistance. Tins of food can also be used as substitute weights, or why not use your own body weight to provide resistance. Try doing exercises such as dips, squats, press ups, sit-ups, lunges at home, try walking or running up and down the stairs to give your thighs a good workout?
i am not able to take up a regular activity each week due to time/work constraints.
Can you suggest anything i could do to become more active?
Look at ways you can be more active in your everyday life. For example, could you walk up the stairs at work rather than taking the lift? Could you go for a walk in your lunch break? Could you walk the kids to school? Try and be active around the home hovering, and dusting are all forms of physical activity. Why not put on some music and ‘dance’ whilst doing your cleaning. T

With over half of us saying we’d enjoy our summer holiday more if we were happier with our body a local slimming expert has revealed that there is time to kick off those weight loss plans. Christine who runs the Tickhill slimming World group says if you want to lose weight without going hungry, improve your overall health, fi tness and well-being then slimming world is the place to go. a survey found that more than half of us spoil our summer holidays before we’ve even packed our bikinis because we’re self-conscious and worried about wearing a swimming costume in public or getting into the pool in front of others. statistics show that over half of us will try to lose weight for the big summer holiday this year but somehow the motivation fl ags and we end up disappointedly packing the same supersize shorts as last year.
That’s where Slimming World can help, it’s possible to lose a stone or more over six weeks. So this summer we won’t need to get to the beach feeling like we need to hide in the shade – we’ll have all the confi dence and motivation we need to get summer off to a great start!
Slimming World’s great Food Optimising eating plan really is Extra Easy and members lose weight easily without ever going hungry. They still enjoy all their favourite meals all based on hearty healthy Slimming World recipes. Then each week in group we share more great food ideas and spur each other on for the next week. However much weight you have to lose you can make a big diff erence in six weeks by making long lasting changes that will transform your body, your health and your whole outlook.

All are settling well into their new environment with new friends and activities.The walls are very quickly filling with new and beautiful work!The Tickhill Horticultural Society Show, was well supported by theschool, with winning entries in many different classes. The JubileePet Show, (a new addition) proved popular with William Hardyreceived 2nd prize for Ben, ‘the Happiest Dog’, and Lewis Spencergetting 1st prize for Molly, ‘the most Adorable.’Staying with the gardening theme, the Jubilee Woodland Copse isgetting established and becoming a lovely addition to the topfield. We are again collecting Morrison’s Gardening Vouchers todevelop the school’s grounds, if any-one would like to donatethem to the school, they will be gratefully received.The Annual Duck Race will be held on Sunday 30 September at2p.m. Ticket sales are going well and we thank all participants fortheir kind support.

THE EARL OF DONCASTER LAUNCHES GUINEA PIG NIGHT2nd Thursday of each month sees diners consume,
contemplate & choose what makes the gradeNo one really wants to be experimented on, but a localhotel has launched an event to show that being a guineapig doesn’t necessarily have to be a glum experience – itcan, in fact, be one filled with gastronomic delights.Guinea Pig Night, created by The Earl of Doncaster Hotel,will take place on the second Thursday of every monthand diners attending, will not only be able to sample abeautifully cooked three course meal by a talented chef,but they’ll also have the final say as to what dishes makeit onto the new menu. The catch? Guest diners won’t know what they’re going to get.“Creating a great menu and serving food of the highest quality are obviously what any hotelstrives for but at The Earl, we really just want to develop a dining experience with a reallypersonal aspect to it,” explains Fraser Wolstencroft, Hotel Manager.“So allowing diners to taste new dishes and make the final decision as to what goes on the newmenu, we think, is the perfect way of achieving it,” he continues. “After all, it’s the public whochoose to dine with us, so it’s only right that they participate in picking the menu we provide.”Served in Café Bar Concerto and £15 per person, including a Three course meal prepared by TheEarl’s resident talented and rosette winning chef, Paul Thompson and a Glass of House Wine“After the recent refurbishment to restore the hotel to all the splendour of its original Art Decoroots, Café Bar Concerto is, without a doubt, a simply a stunning destination for any diner,”Fraser continues. “We really wanted to go that extra mile though and what better way to do itthan creating not only a beautiful ambience, but also by serving a menu that they’ve helped tomake themselves?”Guinea Pig Night takes place on the second Thursday of every month in Café Bar Concertobetween 6pm and 10pm.

on Wednesday 20th March Year 6 visited The Lifewise Centre in Hellaby, rotherham to learn vital life skills, including fi re, road and personal safety tips.
Here are their impressions.Crucial Crew was...EPIC, SURPRISING, TREMENDOUS,
KNOWLEDGEABLE
it made you feel...
SHOCKED, PUZZLED, INVOLVED,
and made you think...
what COULD happen.
But was very very VERY...
EXCITING!!!
arson Arson is the act of setting
something on fi re on purpose.
It is against the law to commit arson and can result in a maximum sentence of a lifetime in jail if it’s a house or something large like that. Setting a stick on fi re to cook marshmallows isn’t arson, but setting a Lamborghini-LP6700 Aventador costing £350,000 certainly is arson.
Arson displays stupidity. Never dare someone to do arson or do it yourself, or you could be much worse off .
First aidThe First Aid training was fun. We
had a chance to fl ip our friend on their side so they don’t choke on their tongue while unconscious. We were shown lots of diff erent positions such as the recovery position. We were taught how to get an object out of a friend’s throat using back pumps. Using the palm of your hand you hit hard between the shoulder blades until the object is out.
House on FireOne of the scenarios was a boys
bedroom. Year 6 found out about all the diff erent ways to know if there is a fi re behind a door, and how to
stop smoke coming into the room. They also found out what things in the room can set on fi re, like clothes on heaters, candles on T.V.s or using a cube plug called an adaptor, it is much safer to use one with four in row like a gang plug.
road safetyAt Crucial Crew we learned
about road safety such as how long it takes for a driver to stop, how dangerous it is to play games on the road and also how dangerous it is to listen to music while crossing
the road. Did you know that it takes 9 metres for a driver to even think about stopping and an extra 16 to actually stop if they’re going 30mph average speed in most towns?
The Bus At Crucial Crew there were
plenty of scenarios; one was the bus. On the bus we learned
how to get on and off the bus and a lot of other useful tips that will help us in our journeys later in life. We were included in all stages, someone even was the bus driver. We were told all the rules of the bus and how to keep safe as well. We were shown where the emergency exits were. SAFE TRAVEL!
Crucial Crew/ The Pub In the pub scenario, we learnt
about what are drugs and what aren’t drugs. We learnt about the really bad ones like: cannabis, heroin, cocaine, nicotine and deodorant. At fi rst none of us thought deodorant was a drug, but then the man told us that people use it as a drug by spraying it in their mouths.
We all got to see what a drunk person saw like with some special glasses. We each had a go at wearing the glasses and trying and get a ball in a bucket most of us failed! It was very fun and interesting and if we had the chance, we would DEFINITELY go again.T

i have had a few phone calls this month from parents who would like their daughters to join the waiting list for Brownies so i think it is worth repeating the information about JoiN Us for another month. Thank you to the ones who have called for following the new system.
Girl guiding UK always tries to keep up with technology and over the last few years their records and the way that we leaders manage the information we have to keep as regards contact numbers, addresses and other information has changed to refl ect the growing use of technology in the world today. The way that Rainbows move up to Brownies and new Brownies are registered onto the system is the latest thing to change. Gone are the days when parents can give me a call, or pop into the meeting to get their daughter into Brownies (unfortunately). The new system requires parents to log on to the Girl guiding website (www.girlguiding.org.uk) and register their interest in the ‘parents’ section. In this
section they are given a choice of all the Brownie groups in the area and the night they would like to attend. If a pack in Tickhill is chosen then I will get an email and it goes on from there. At the moment I, and many other leaders, am not convinced that this is progress in small and rural communities where everyone knows everyone else, but at this moment we have no choice but to give the new system a good try. If your daughter is currently a Rainbow, please talk to the Rainbow leaders when they are due to move up to Brownies. If all else fails, however, please still contact me directly as I am a big believer that there is always a way to get around any system!Clare Carr, Brown owl, 07780 703012 T

each year in March we hold a “safety Week”. We focus on all aspects of safety in lessons and assemblies and also invite visitors into school to extend our pupils’ knowledge and skills.
At the beginning of the week we received a visit from the South Yorkshire Fire Service. Our Reception Class were visited by the fi re crew from Maltby station in their fi re engine and learned about all of the special equipment that the fi re crews carry, so that they can help those in danger. The children were allowed to climb into the engine to see the dashboard and switch on the sirens.
Classes 2 and 4 were also visited by the Fire Safety Offi cers and learned all about fi re prevention and the steps to take should a fi re break out.
During the week our Year 6 pupils also visited the Lifewise Centre at Hellaby for the day to visit the Crucial Crew. They learned about many aspects of personal safety and how to take action so that they do not
fi nd themselves in dangerous situations. The day as always was very informative and the pupils were surprised at the new information that they learned.
We were also pleased to welcome back to school Trevor Polson from St. John Ambulance. Trevor again worked with all of the pupils in Key Stage 2 teaching them about fi rst aid. Some of our pupils are now on their
third year of training and their skills and knowledge are being extended as the years go by. We are very proud of the fact that we are doing all that we can to teach the children about the importance of fi rst aid and being able to help others and themselves, especially when this is currently something that has been of interest in the media.

Hello everyone, this has been another really busy month for us with a heavy infl ux of cats and dogs, but fortunately it has also been busy with people adopting our residents. Before anyone takes one of our dogs home they attend a saturday morning induction meeting which usually lasts for about an hour and a half. This enables everyone to ask as many questions as they have time for and is especially helpful to new dog owners. our dog listeners are very knowledgeable and do a great job of making a new dog owners life a little easier.
I know I ask every month but we are really desperate for dog walkers. Come on everyone I am sure there are lots of people out there wanting to get fi t and help a charity at the same time.
We do what we can regarding fund raising and there are still tickets left for our latest fund raiser Wild West night at Ye old Belle at Barnby Moor on the 8th June. Tickets are £20 includes supper disco and a live band, Also raffl e and prize for best dressed, we need to make this evening a success as the money we hope to raise will help to keep our dogs and cats well fed and watered.
If anyone has any time on their hands and would like to involve themselves in fundraising please let us know, we always need help especially at our July dog show and Sponsored dog walk at the end of the year. So please call us it anyone would like to become involved just call us on 01302 711330 or 07969 203206
We are open every day apart from Tues. our opening times are 2-4pm and 1-4pm at a weekend
Please come and see us, have a walk around our sanctuary we are very proud of the work we do and could not continue without the donations we receive. T

recently Wadworth’s Year six went on a weeks residential to Kingswood activity Centre in staff ordshire. We had a lot of fun and each day was fi lled with amazing activities (such as Zipwire, abseiling, Laser Quest and Quad Biking). There were many challenging activities in which we had to use lots of stamina, courage and our friend’s encouragement to complete the tasks.
As well as being made for fun- it’s also educational because it teaches you teamwork, technical skills, social skills, communicational skills and skills you would need/use in your later life! They have fi rst class, nutritious food and we had quite a wide variety to choose from. The instructors made the whole stay even more exciting! They kept us entertained ALL day! They were all experts in their jobs and kept us safe when on the equipment as well as encouraging us to face up to our challenges.
Overall, Kingswood is a great place to stay with many exhilarating activities to keep you occupied all the time! We all have many enjoyable memories from there!
By Tim and Hannah
WARNING: If you are prone tojealousy do not read this!!CastletonYear 5 went on a residential trip to Castleton on Tuesday 19th March – Thursday 21st March 2013.We all thoroughly enjoyed it!
We all thought it was very educational and extremely good fun especially the indoor activities provided by the hostel - like the roll
play mine and the fossil making. There were lots of good exercise involved and a lot of things to learn. Our accommodation was great and we would give it 99.99 out of 100! The food smelt and tasted delicious and was served every night. Our meals consisted of a starter, main course and a pudding, with a cooked breakfast served every morning. On the second and last day they provided a pack-lunch to take out with us on our walk.
We visited 3 caverns and 1 mountain, the fi rst cavern we went to was called Treak Cliff Cavern (which is the only place in the world that Blue John is still mined.) The next day we
went to Speedwell Cavern, we learnt a lot from that like 100s and 100s of years ago when the led miners were down there was part of the Cavern were they threw rocks from the walls the water didn’t seem to rise so they called it the bottomless pit. Finally we went to Peak Cavern, which was where many fi lms were fi lmed.
Over all we had a really good time and we would recommend to all children ages from 8-14.

i have received the following response from stagecoach to letters that i have written to them requesting increased bus services to and from Tickhill
We have been aware of some travel demand between Maltby, Tickhill and Bawtry for a while and I know that there have been a number of attempts to provide a regular bus service between these places in the past. It has to be recognised that one of the main reasons for the previous formats of service being withdrawn or curtailed has been that, although there is clearly some demand for the link, the actual number of passengers wishing to travel between these locations is very few.
Despite the above I recognise that it must be very frustrating for people having to travel into Doncaster to connect with a bus back to Bawtry to make what should be a very short journey.
We did consider whether we could stretch Service 30/30a to Tickhill when we last revised this route and timetable but unfortunately there was not quite enough running time.
There is a demand responsive bus service running into Bawtry, which serves the area immediately to the south of the town. This is funded by Nottinghamshire County Council. It may be that by prompting some discussions between Nottinghamshire and South Yorkshire there may be some possibility of extending this to provide journeys from Maltby and Tickhill into Bawtry.
Over the summer we will be working with Nottinghamshire County Council to review bus service provision in Bassetlaw and into South Yorkshire. I will keep your comments in mind and see if there is anything that could be planned into the bus network with the assistance of Notts CC and South Yorkshire PTE.

Advice on CCJsfrom Jones & Co
01302 710555www.jonessolicitors.co.uk
48 High Street, Bawtry, Doncaster, DN10 6JBBAWTRY • RETFORD • OLLERTON
• Payinfullwithin1monthofthejudgment:The CCJ will be removed from the register
• Payinfullafter1monthofthejudgment:The CCJ stays on the register but it will be recorded as ‘satisfied’.
• Neverpayit: If you don’t pay it, it’s shown as unsatisfied.
• RemovetheCCJ: The only way to remove a CCJ is to ask the court to set aside the judgment because you have a genuine reason to dispute it. Be careful though – if your application to set aside is unsuccessful and is heard more than 1 month after the date of the judgment it will show up on the register even if you subsequently pay it in full; the 1 month runs from the date of the judgment, not the date of the hearing.
Please contact:
James Murray of Jones & Co gives advice on County Court Judgments & how to avoid damaging your credit rating.A CCJ is a judgment that a county court issues when someone has failed to pay money that they owe. CCJs are a simple way for creditors to claim the money they’re entitled to. The Register of Judgments, Orders and Fines records CCJs for 6 years.
Banks and other lenders can do a CCJ check against the CCJ register when deciding whether to offer credit. Getting a mortgage or loan with a CCJ is difficult. Even if you get credit, you may end up paying a higher interest rate.
The moral of the story is to react quickly to a judgment entered against you and be realistic about your chances of successfully setting it aside within 1 month when deciding whether or not to pay it.
Nearly all CCJsgo on the register.Once registered your options are:

if you’re reading this you probably have an interest in gardening, but even armchair gardeners must be happy that spring is now well under way. May brings with it a wonderful selection of fl owers, mainly in cool blues, purples, pinks and whites, and some great fragrances too, including the heady scent of Lilac. it’s an old fashioned shrub which has fallen out of favour, and for the majority of the year it looks relatively uninteresting – but the Lilac bush smells fantastic in a gentle May evening breeze. Mix this aroma with the scent of freshly mown grass and you have the most perfect spring fragrance, better than any air-freshener.
After a long winter with more snow than I can ever remember, and yet more depressing news about our economy, I think what we all need is to enjoy a little nostalgia; I’m not talking bunting here, but bedding plants. Towards the end of the month is the time when bedding plants and other tender perennials can be planted outside. Thousands of people will fl ock to garden centres up and down the country over the coming weeks, and for some it’s their only pilgrimage of the year to the outdoor retail world. It’s an opportunity for the nurseryman (or woman) to display
row after row of highly colourful plants, stacked, tray by tray like jars of sweets in an old fashioned shop. Each standing to attention, faces held high, their label pointing forwards and each doing their utmost to shout “buy me, buy me”. The fl owers shine in the sunshine like the sparkling boiled fruit sweets in the jars, oh what is it to be, the bi coloured rhubarb custards, or the combination of blackberry and raspberry jellies?
Choosing your colour scheme for this year’s bedding display (be that just the one hanging basket or a front garden that looks like a Victorian public park) is exciting, and a totally personal task. I’ve know it can cause arguments between couples, but have also known marriages which have survived successfully on the basis that “you plant your side and I’ll plant mine”. There are those who like a multi coloured cocktail of plants (a mixed tray of Petunias for example), those who prefer to stick to a muted pallet of 2-3 ‘sophisticated colours’ (usually purple, blue and white) and then those trying to achieve a Swiss
cottage look who mightplummet for just the one (perhaps a red trailing Ivy Leafed Pelargonium). But whatever your preference I don’t think it really matters, because buying annual bedding plants brings nostalgic happiness all round; it’s good for the nurseryman’s business, brilliant for passersby to enjoy, and most importantly great at making you feel happy at home.T
Until next time,happy gardening, Lee...

Gold Medal Gardener goes back to NatureWhen you’ve already won one gold and ‘Best in show’ accolade and two silver medals at rHs Chelsea, how do you come up with a garden design to do it again?
The answer is to create a garden that pushes the boundaries of garden design building on a passion for nature and demonstrating versatility and creativity, imparting the designers love for his craft.
Braithwell’s Jamie Dunstan, 41, RHS Chelsea Gold winner in 2011 has created a visionary design for his 2013 garden; ‘As Nature Intended’. It sees a holistic appreciation of how nature infl uences art, medicine and food production through sculpture and hard and soft landscaping.
“I am delighted to be returning to Chelsea and working once again with my previous sponsors, Stockton Drilling,” said
at RHS Chelsea 2013Fiona O’Connell proprietor Stockton Drilling. “His amazing fl air for garden design is superb and ‘As Nature Intended’ is a garden that brings core elements of nature together.”
“It was very important to me that I created a garden that contrasted with the more industrial and reclaimed elements from the last garden,” said Jamie. “I hope to inspire anyone who visits the garden and I am determined and hopeful that this year’s garden will prove to a winner once again.”
Jamie and his team will be on hand each day at Chelsea to share his considerable design and horticultural knowledge imparting their enthusiasm and vision for the garden with all visitors to the stand.
rHs Chelsea Flower show commences on 21st May and runs until 25th
May 2013. The ‘as Nature intended’ garden can be found on Main avenue.
Jamie. “This year my garden will be a natural progression from ‘Winds of Change’ and will demonstrate how the use of sustainable products and creative planting, can show the versatility of modern garden design and how it can succinctly harmonise with properties of our past.”
With natural stone provided by Burlington Stone, barley, yew and willow sculptures by commended sculptor Emma Stothard and a sympathetic planting scheme, the garden will provide an oasis of peace and quiet amongst the hustle and bustle of Main Street at RHS Chelsea.
“We are thrilled to team up with Jamie once again and already are very excited about the visionary design that he has created,” commented

Voglia d’ Italia
opera came to Tickhill Music society’s March concert and provided a highly entertaining and hugely enjoyable evening of music. The four singers (soprano, Mezzo, Tenor and Bass) were ably supported and
fi rmly underpinned by excellent piano accompaniment. The evening began with several selections from ‘The Marriage of Figaro’ starting with a trio and followed by two solos for a perky Cherubini, a soul searching lament from the bass, the letter duet for susanna and the Countess and a solo for susanna.
In sharp contrast there followed several extracts from the opera by Lennox Berkeley called ‘The Dinner Engagement’. The fi rst half ended with the wonderful ‘farewell’ trio from ‘Cosi fan tutte’ the two ladies pleading for soft breezes to blow for the two lovers sailing away.
The second half began with extracts from the ever popular and always tuneful opera ‘Carmen’, including three spirited favourites and a lesser known duet for soprano and tenor. The solo spot for the pianist was the ‘Liebestod’ by Wagner, arranged by Liszt with characteristic decorations, sensitively played by the pianist. A favourite Puccini aria for the soprano was followed by two Gilbert and Sullivan items to round off the concert
- a suitably bucolic ‘Buttercup’ and a fi nale from ‘The Sorcerer’ for
the whole team.All the singers were excellent with the ebullient bass providing introductions and amusing comments. The accomplished performances by all the singers, ably supported
by sensitive piano accompaniment and
with several items being presented theatrically, made
the whole evening most rewarding.T

Travelling abroad? – think vaccinations and think documentation required from your GP surgery!
Are you going overseas for your holidays this year?
If you are then please allow plenty of time for getting properly vaccinated and for any extra documentation required from your GP.
There are many places in Europe where you can go safely without needing to be protected by vaccinations.
The general rule is that the further you are travelling and the more unusual the destination, the more likely you are to need vaccinations. Many illnesses can be completely prevented or the risk of illness substantially reduced by effi cient vaccination.
You should allow at least 8 weeks to be prepared before travelling as some injections need to be given at intervals.
If you aren’t sure about the risks of the country you’re travelling to you can get advice from your GP practice or practice nurse.
Other documentation such as letters or certifi cates for travel or to support an application could be required e.g:- • Reports and certifi cates requested by patients e.g. to support an application for travel insurance or to allow liquid medication to

The March meeting started with a minutes silence in memory of the late Ken Hempsell who sadly passed away whilst on holiday in australia. a skilled French polisher, Ken was the sort of committee man essential to a club like ours – willing to take on any task or responsibility and do it well. He will be missed.
Acting chair Dick Green then introduced our speaker Steve Hickman from Hoyland Plant Centre. Since he last spoke to us in 2007 Steve has been appointed holder of the National Collections of both Agapanthus and Tulbaghia and there is nothing about the various species of these plants that he could not advise on. With a wide range of plants for sale and suitable Yorkshire humour he went down well.
Thursday the 30th of May will be an orchid night. Our speaker Ted Croot’s subject is “Orchids”plain and simple. There will be plants on show but none for sale. Start 7-15pm in the Methodist Schoolroom. Visitors welcome - £3
On Friday the 24th May our Chairman Ray Hill and his wife Gillian are holding a ‘Coff ee Day’ with sale of bedding and vegetable plants in their garden at 2 Pinfold Lane, just next to the new cemetery. They will be open from 10 am – 12 noon, 2-4pm and 6-8pm with proceeds in aid of the Methodist Church and charities. Just the right time for planting, after the last frosts.

Father and son travel experts Jeff and Paul rhodes are used to the jetset lifestyle; after all, it is their job.
This summer the Doncaster based duo will not only be organising itineraries and fl ight schedules and helping to pack many a customer off to far-fl ung destinations across the globe, they will also be embarking upon The Travel Trade Crusade on Friday 12 July, a mad dash across Europe, taking in fi ve countries in three days and raising cash for local children’s hospice Bluebell Wood along the way.
62 year-old Jeff and son 35 year-old Paul from Blaxton, who jointly run Small World Travel, in Tickhill, will be competing with other travel professionals as they tick off challenges set by the rally team.
The competition lasts for 3 days starting in Calais at 9am on the Friday and fi nishing in Amsterdam on Sunday 14 July. It’s been designed to be fast and furious to minimise time away from the offi ce.
They have chosen to raise money for Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice, which off ers care and support to children with a shortened life expectancy, both in their own homes and at the hospice in North Anston.
The dynamic duo will be taking part in the rally in their beloved car Dex, a kit car built by Jeff and his good friend Scott Brook.
Said Jeff of the challenge; “Small World Travel is proud to be part of the fi rst ever Travel Trade Crusade and

is our latest Occasional Paper. The history of this family run farm draws on a range of documents, Duncan’s family memories and artefacts discovered on the land. The Paper also outlines how the ruined mill has been restored and may be visited free of charge by prior arrangement. This new publication, price £2, is on sale at KSM Card Gallery.

From a wonderful collection of old photographs we saw how this self suffi cient village built for workers at a quarry on the south bank of the river don opposite sprotborough provided for the needs of the quarrymen and their families. a rare piece of fi lm showing skaters on the frozen river ended a nostalgic and very enjoyable evening.

I do hope by the time you all read this that Spring will have sprung, as I write this, it is still snowing!! andit’s April! T
will be rewarding. I hope to complete the course by the end of this year.
Please report the usual to D.M.B.C. 736000 and if you are on the internet please log on to D.M.B.C. website and look for “Do it on Line”. It is a facility that allows reporting of litter, dog foul, anti social behaviour and much more. You also get a report number that can be chased up. I ask you all to report what you fi nd yourselves, because if I report it, is logged as one report, but if individual residents report it clocks up the numbers!
We are still progressing with allotments and garden share. We already have some gardens off ered but no gardeners as yet. Please make yourself known if you feel you can take part in this venture. Apply to the Clerk or any Councillor.

as a change to my moan and groan of dog foul and litter, i thought i would let you know what has been happening in the offi ce since december.
As well as the normal accounts and meeting preparation, minute taking etc and reporting nuisance behaviour etc. I have (and still am) studying for a certifi cate in Council Work.
With legislation changing on a daily basis these days, the Council suggested that we would benefi t from being up to date with all that is going on, and felt it would be appropriate if I [the Clerk] attended a suitable course to achieve this.
It consists of six modules: Roles and Responsibilities, Law, Procedures, Finance, Planning and Community. All are assessed by the Gloucester University and hopefully by the end of this year I will have completed the task.
So far I have passed Roles and Responsibilities and Law. I am now working on the next two modules Procedures and Finance.
Each module consists of personal study, tutorials, webinars and seminars, with a fi nal submission of the work and a pass or fail grade awarded. So far I am doing O.K.! with two good passes.
To date I have been able to establish that what we do in Tickhill is correct and Lawful, and I have picked up some valuable information along the way which has made my work a little more interesting and easier.
Returning to study after many years was diffi cult and needed much discipline but hopefully the results

Tickhill, as expressed so far in the consultation, is for minimal change; you don’t want to see Tickhill grow larger beyond the present boundaries, you do want to see the character of the town preserved and enhanced. You are concerned that through traffi c should be reduced and would like to see community facilities improved.
This accords well with the description of Tickhill as a Conservation Town in the Borough’s Core Strategy, from which these quotations are taken. Tickhill is an “attractive market town with a high quality historic centre containing a good range of services that serve wider catchments”. The town centre is “surrounded by extensive suburban developments constrained from further outward growth by the Green Belt”. “New development on the edge of the town would further erode its historic
character, increase car journeys into the centre and increase outward commuting.” “New housing will be limited to quality infi ll within the existing settlement. The district centre will be protected and enhanced and appropriate employment opportunities will be within existing employment sites and the town centre.” “The town is relatively poor in terms of public transport accessibility.”
All this seems very much in line with the comments received by the Neighbourhood Plan team. If we can expand this into the detailed policies and proposals which will make up the Plan, hopefully the result will be what our community seeks as a blueprint for the future.
Please do make any comments or suggestions to help the team with their work. e mails can be sent to the secretary, rosemary Chappell, at [email protected]
Tickhill Neighbourhood Planas we move from our initial consultation towards drafting content for the Neighbourhood Plan, it becomes important to study the rules (offi cially described as the ‘basic conditions’ which must be met). What we put forward must comply with national policy and “contribute to sustainable development”. Perhaps of most signifi cance to us is the requirement to be “in general conformity with the Local development Framework Core strategy” - what we put forward mustn’t confl ict with doncaster Council’s approved planning strategy.
Fortunately this shouldn’t be too diffi cult. Your collective wish for

Fresh from coming
3rd at the Wombwell
Pedal Car Championships our
4 cars and drivers are now training for
the big 24 hour event at shennington
at the end of June. Just like F1 each
car has its team of drivers and
engineers to keep it on the track.
Just like F1, the more successful
we
become the more expensive
it is to maintain the 4 cars
and
their driving teams in top condition
and
at the “forefront of technology”. Currently,
the
drivers and engineers almost entirely fund their existence from their
own resources. These resources are becoming exhausted and we
need to fi nd some way of replenishing them.
It has occurred to us that, just like F1, perhaps we could get
some
sponsorship for each car. In the past, we have earned sponsorship
for
the number of laps the cars do on the track in 24 hours but
we have donated the whole sum of money raised to our
current favourite charity Safe@Last. Whilst this method of
funding ourselves is always possible we really need cash
and services up-front. If there is anyone or any business
who would like to become our sponsors then I would be
very pleased to hear from them.(Bob Kitchen – 01302
743430; [email protected]). Everything from
tyres for each car – about £60 per set and we can get
through more than one set in a 24 hour race – to the provision
of garage services (welding, bending, straightening, panel beating,
fi bre glass work, general fi tting skills particularly associated with bike
engineering). In return we will willingly feature in any advertising campaign
you might wish to run, any promotion you may want to do. We will wear your
t shirts with your logo, we will cover our cars with your advertising material.
The major news from last month is that Jack Woolley, an Explorer Scout
from the Phoenix Explorer Scout Unit was awarded his Queen’s Scout Award
and will now go down to Windsor to take part in the annual St George’s
day parade for Queen’s Scouts. Well done Jack – this is a very great
honour for him and the unit of which he was a member.
My attempt at forming a parents fundraising group has
come to fruition. Following our fi rst meeting they have
already planned a table top sale on May 12th.
Tables are pre-bookable at £10 each. They will
be providing refreshments in the Scout & Guide
HQ on the Scarecrow Festival day (May 4th) from
11.00am. During July we will be holding a family
sponsored cycle ride and barbecue in Clumber Park.
Further details of other events will be publicised
as soon as they become confi rmed.

Old InhabitantsIt has been my privilege and pleasure to have lived in Tickhill now for forty five years. Despitethis long residence it is likely to take another decade or so before being accepted as properlybelonging. Even then I will not qualify as a true Tickhillian (or Tickhiller, as some people wouldhave it). It is not possible to identify a genuine old inhabitant just by looking or by casualacquaintance. The only true means of identification is to eavesdrop on a group of them talking.It is a revelation. The powers of recall and the depth of local knowledge are a source of wonder.The imaginary conversation may go something like this:Sorry to hear Alice Jackson has died. She was in my class at primary school when Miss Brewsterwas our teacher.Gosh! she was a bit of a tyrant was Gertrude Brewster. I had the cane from her more than once.Not as often as Neville Williams though, he was always in trouble.I used to work with Neville on the railway and he was a lovely chap. Would do anything foranybody. Didn’t he marry that Sarah girl?Yes, she was his first wife. Her mother were a Bullock. Lived somewhere near the Spital. She diedtragically in ’47 and it was several years before he married again. That was Hannah Cartrightwho came from Loversall and worked part time at the garage. Came to work on that old bike inall weathers.It would be the Dysons at the garage in those days. Remember that old car they ran as a taxi?Kept breaking down even though run by motor mechanics. Young Ron Dyson was a bit of atearaway and ended up joining the army. Grandma Dyson was nice. Didn’t she help withcleaning the church?Yes, there was a team of ladies I remember, because my Aunty Maud was one of them. Theywere bossed about by one of the church wardens.That would be Billy Havers who had his finger in everything. Lived up Lindrick somewhere andkept lots of cats. He married that Molly Spencer who lived in Church Lane.And this sort of talk can go on for hours. The speakers, between them, knew everybody, andwhat’s more, knew most of their private business, where they lived, how old they were, who alltheir relatives were and what happened to them. This is total recall and local oral history on agrand scale. It is a treat to overhear these exchanges which we incomers cannot hope toemulate. We can only stand on the sidelines and admire the performance.With today’s more fragmented society when people leave their home town to go to universityor find work elsewhere, this kind of local memory store is unlikely to be replicated which will bea loss.

Gareth has been raising money for a cure - over £6,000 to date. The latest daft challenge he is undertaking is the biggie!!! The London Marathon! By the time you read this, he will have (hopefully) completed the 26 mile (and 385 yard) slog. Training hasn’t been all plain sailing with injuries taking their toll in the build-up. His wife Nikki and daughters Lily-Anne & Grace will be going down with Samuel to support their Dad on the day. If Gareth does complete the marathon, he will need some help on his next goal - he needs to raise £1800 to give to JDRF for his place in the race!!!
The JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) is the worlds leading charity for funding research
into a cure for Type 1 Diabetes. If you feel you could help Gareth with his fundraising, just go to: www.justgiving.com/Curesam2013 or simply text the code CUre55 and an amount in £ to 70070. For example, if you want to donate £5, your text would look like: CUre55 £5 T
