A strange sight seen again on Somerlea Park in Leabrooks

They were here last year and are returning again this year, what a sight for sore eyes they make, a group of FLAT GREEN LAWN BOWLERS known by the mythical name of the PHOENIX. Thanks to Ripley CVS, Grant funding was awarded to the Phoenix Bowls Club, by a panel of adjudicators, for 5 unemployed people to have the opportunity to join the Phoenix Bowls Club, with coaching provided absolutely free.

YOUR SOUTH NORMANTON

YOUR SOUTH NORMANTON

PARISH COUNCIL

for all the positive feedback on our South Normanton High Street feature!

We only intended to run it for a couple of months but it has been so well received we have decided to keep it going, as big and beautiful as ever.

We have decided to try something new this month and moved the feature towards the front of the magazine, as we have had quite a few requests for Rafa’s Ramble to go back to the middle as people like to take it out for when they do the walk.

The feature is full of interesting and exciting

events, information and business as usual this month but we want to keep it fresh and informative going forwards to so if you have any ideas or any other feedback let us know by email to info@voicemagazines.co.uk . We have been running a ‘Community Focus’ article in some of our other magazines, giving some much-needed exposure to charity and not-for-profit organisations. It is something I would love to bring to this magazine as well so if you are involved in a group that needs some publicity let us know, we’d love to help!

Did you know there was a Crown Green Bowls Club in South Normanton?

?

We were established in 1926 and play on the ex Miners Welfare site on Lees lane next to the South Normanton football club.

We have six teams playing in the Chesterfield and District Crown Green Bowls league, a veterans (over 60) team that play on a Monday afternoon, three teams that play on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and two teams that play on Saturday afternoons.We play in the Chesterfield area and travel to places like Wingerworth, Baslow, Coal Aston and Dronfield to name a few.

Crown Green Bowls can be played by anyone of any age or gender and is good exercise and creates a great social atmosphere.

WANT TO HAVE A GO? We are looking for new members and have all the equipment for people to try the game. Membership to new comers to the sport is free for the first year, so if you would like to have a go please call Peter Creek, Secretary/Treasurer 01773 819362

Slimming World Recipe Chicken Tikka Kebabs with Pitta

www.thehilcotecountryclub.co.uk

Having a kebab always feels like a treat. So why not treat yourself with this fabulous Slimming World recipe. This dish is perfectly complemented with a tasty side salad.

Hilcote Lane, Hilcote, Blackwell, Alfreton, Derbyshire DE55 5HR

Serves: 4

Ready in: 25 minutes

Syns per serving: 7 (deduct 7 Syns if using Pitta Bread wholemeal as a healthy extra ‘b’ choice)

Method: 1. Put the chicken in a freezer bag (or a glass or stainless-steel bowl) with the curry powder, yogurt and garlic. Season with salt and stir to combine.

2. Seal the bag or cover the bowl with cling film and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour or overnight.

3. For the salad, put the cucumber, radishes, celery and lettuce in a bowl. Mix together the yogurt and chopped coriander, season, then stir through the salad.

4. Preheat your grill to high. Lift the chicken out of the marinade, letting any excess drain off, then thread onto 4 metal skewers. Place on a baking tray lined with foil and grill for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway, or until the chicken is lightly charred and cooked through.

5. Toast the pitta breads. Scatter the coriander sprigs over the chicken skewers and serve with 1 pitta bread per person with the salad and lemon wedges for squeezing over.

For more information visit www.slimmingworld.co.uk

Ingredients: • 8 skinless and boneless chicken thighs, visible fat removed, cut into bite-size pieces • 3 level tbsp tikka curry powder* • 250g fat-free natural Greekstyle yogurt • 3 garlic cloves, crushed • 4 x 60g wholemeal pitta breads • Lemon wedges, to serve

Book Review

‘Me’ – Elton John

Elton John has never claimed to aim for the understated so it’s not too surprising that his autobiography is called Me. He writes that the great thing about rock and roll is that someone like him, a chubby kid from Pinner in Essex named Reg, can be a star. Though to be fair to him, he’s written some brilliantly catchy stuff and as a performer he’s the real deal.

And this story has got the lot. From his early days of having his songs rejected while he trailed round northern clubs playing two gigs a night as a pianist in bands that were going nowhere, to gold and platinum albums, friendships with Freddie Mercury, Rod Stewart Princess Di and Versace and bizarrely disco dancing with the Queen.

And the memoir is not shy about his equally rackety personal life. Drugs, sex, gossip (the more scurrilous the better). Not for nothing was the film his husband David Furnish made about Elton called tantrums and tiaras. Me is a really funny and sometimes shocking tale.

But the thing that stops this just being a parade of rock star memories and excess – and there is plenty of that - is his total brutal honesty about the bad bits of his life, the suicide attempts, the temper, the drug, booze, shopping and food addictions. And how he, just about, managed to survive it all and remain still standing, as the song goes.

This isn’t a sanitized version of his life. It’s warts and all, but he emerges as a paid-up human being. Good stuff.

Vintage Rambles a with raFf lake and

6.5 mile circular from Newstead via Newstead Abbey and the Linby trail

We are back with another ‘classic walk’ this month. This walk originally feature in October 2015 but it has remained strong in our memories ever since so we are delighted to be able to feature it again, with many of you seeing it for the first time.

The walk makes good use of the Linby Trail and the area around Newstead Abbey to offer beautiful scenery along with a good leg stretch and good terrrain, We were battered by Storm Dennis and previously Storm Ciara in the build-up to the magazine publication so I think we are due some nice spring weather in which to enjoy getting out and about with our furry friends again.

A moderate walk for you and your dog.

This medium length walk should take around 2½ - 3 hours.

There may be some sections of uneven terrain depending on the weather. There are a couple of road sections, so take plenty of care and make sure you wear appropriate footwear for the conditions.

7.

8.

Further on you will pass Newstead Abbey on your right and then a car park on your left.

Continue straight and cross over a crossroads. After a short distance turn right onto a footpath.

Continue into the woods along the path until reaching a tarmac road. Turn left along the road and continue straight for some distance.

Upon reaching a large pair of metal gates directly in front of you, take a footpath to the right of the gates and continue straight with a tall hedge on your left. Continue to pass through a metal gate and then continue straight along a farm track for some distance until reaching a road.

Turn right along the road signposted for ‘Village Centre’. After the road bends sharp right and then sharp left, turn immediately right along a tarmac lane signposted for ‘Linby’.

Pass by a large wooden gate and then pass through a double metal gate. Just prior to reaching a second double metal gate, bear slightly left and pass through a large wooden gate into a churchyard, ignoring the large wooden gate on your left.

After passing through the gate continue through the churchyard for a very short distance and then turn left through a gap in the fence onto a signposted footpath. Follow the path until passing through a gap in a hedge and then turn immediate right onto another footpath.

JERRY GREEN DOG RESCUE We care for and rehome abandoned and unwanted dogs, and will never put a dog down unless itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the only humane option. We receive no Government or National Lottery funding so are dependent on donations from the public.

We run five centres in the east of England, including your nearest one in Nottinghamshire at Warsop Lane, Blidworth, NG21 0PG. We are open 1:30pm to 4:00pm every day.

REGULAR GIVING

As you can imagine, our vet bills are very large, even for just the standard vet care we give every #RescueDog. For standard vet care alone, it costs us on average ÂŁ84 per dog, costing the charity ÂŁ43,000 every year, which is why your donations are so important for us đ&#x;?śđ&#x;?śđ&#x;?śđ&#x;?ś From as little as ÂŁ5 a month, you can help us to continue doing what we do and give our dogs the second chance they deserve.

Sauce & Brown was founded in 2014 by two friends Anthony and Andrew who had been working together in the fashion industry for many years before. They have been based at their HQ in Annesley since 2015.

Why Sauce & Brown?

Simple really, a quintessentially British product Brown Sauce, what is a sausage cob without it! Interestingly the recipe was created in Nottingham by a greengrocer back in 1896.

What Makes Sauce & Brown Different?

We only produce 100 items in each design and each one is individually riveted with its own number 1-100, once they’re gone, they’re gone! We like to think we offer a personal service both online and instore.

Andrew go on tell me something interesting about you?

I was once wined & dined by the Great Fashion Designer Azzedine Alaia. Blog to follow at some point.

Anthony one interesting fact about yourself?

I enjoy snowboarding, recently back from a trip to Austria where the views were out of this world.

Lads where is Sauce & Brown going to be this time next year?

We aim to continue investing in the business and this time next year HQ will be even bigger.

Why not pop in and have a brew with the lads!

When should I contact a Financial Advisor?

When many first think of contacting an Independent Financial Advisor (IFA) it’s because a change in their circumstances make it a sensible step, perhaps purchasing a new home or getting married. I’d really recommend reaching out to an IFA as soon as you can. Yes I would say that, but experience has shown that the sooner conversations are had and a true understanding of what financial products are on the market is gained, the better the outcome.

to the habit of having that money in the first place.

For those of us who have been working many years we know how easy it is to just absorb a pay rise in to your normal spending and never actually benefit from the increase for example.

If, however, you’re in the habit of saving each month from the get-go then the impact on your future can be significant.

Mike’us sings M

A Touch Of Gloss

As Max Bygraves (and if you don’t know who he is/was, ask your grandma) once said...

Decorators Of Distinction

Fings Ain’t Wot They Used to Be (Part 1)

Would you have ever thought that seemingly rationale human beings could become so devastated if they thought they had lost their phone? Did you think that the English language would see the introduction of more new words and phrases like OMG, BTW, 2nite, TX, LOL, GR8, B4N, BRB, BCNU, TMI etc... than at any time since the Norman Conquest?

Be honest, no you didn’t!

Well, can you imagine how the youngsters of today would have managed before mobile phones took over the world?

In the ‘old days’ - i.e. any time before 1985! - we had to use either landlines or payphones. The former was generally found in a room or hallway with the handset attached by cord to the main unit. This meant that when you made or received a call you had limited freedom and often found your Mum listening in as you tried to impress your boy/girlfriend. Unlike today, you couldn’t just carry on the conversation for another hour in the bathroom. Not only that, you had your Dad in the background muttering, ”Don’t forget that it’s me that pays the bills in this house!”

If you needed privacy, you had to put your coat on and go down the street to the nearest phone box. There were however, a number of problems with this option.

Would the box be vacant and even when it was, had it recently been used as a toilet? Would the phone be working? Did you have enough change? Could you remember the number? Besides all that, if there was no-one at the other end, you couldn’t just leave a message and would have to go home before repeating the entire process.

Darren Procter Professional Decorator

• Wallpapering • Feature Walls • Staircases • Free Estimates & Advice • Local, & reliable service • Fully insured • 25 years’ experience

Assuming that you had got into the box and had just begun an earnest intimate conversation with the love of your life, you could guarantee that there would soon be a knock on the phone box door. You’d look up to see someone outside. It was invariably a middle aged woman, with headscarf protecting her curlers hopping from one foot to another and mouthing something like “Will you be long? I’ve got to make an urgent appointment with my gynaecologist.”

If you tried to ignore her and turn away, she’d move round the outside of the box and look you in the eye. I defy anyone to continue whispering sweet nothings to whoever is listening at the other end of the line under that sort of pressure.

OK, many of us may look back nostalgically on our youth, but I reckon I’ve just reminded you of one way in which our lives have improved in the modern world.

Besides, have you ever tried taking a ‘selfie’ from a phone booth?

Whilst I’m in a nostalgic mood, there might just be a bit more reminiscing in April.

Gardener’s Calendar

We should start getting enough warmth into the soil for spring growth to really take off round about now.

You can plant summer bulbs such as lilies, gladioli and agapanthus, but remember that most like sun – the results won’t be good if they’re in shade. They should be planted two to three times their depth and at least one bulb’s width apart.

Re-pot pelargoniums and fuchsias which you have overwintered and increase watering but don’t put them directly out into the garden for a couple of months.

DRB

Waste Recycling Household, garden, general building and waste metal removal.

Household clearance and removals.

Cost effective alternative to skip hire.

Top-dress containers by removing the top five centimetres (two inches) of compost and replace with new.

r

Cut cornus grown for winter colour right back to the base so it will produce again next year and cut buddleia back hard before the sap rises.

Slugs love tender new growth. You can buy nematodes, a parasite which will kill them, from garden centres. They are watered into the soil once the temperature reaches 5°C and are safe to use where there are animals and children. Neither do they harm other forms of wildlife. Use (and empty daily well away from anyone’s garden!) scooped-out orange or grapefruit skins turned upside-down as traps. If growing slug-vulnerable seedlings try putting in a pot and cover with a cloche rather than directly into the soil and then transplant later. And if you really love hostas, also grow in pots.
