Hi Readers, I hope you are enjoyed your great British Summer – it was hot and short lived like all the greats but fear not, I’m banking on a cracking September once all the school holidays, Euro’s etc are finished! You never know, we might have our long awaited ‘Freedom Day’ by that point! So, I’ve made one of my observations this month, which is just re-affirming what I’ve talked about earlier in the year. I am massively struggling to understand the obvious juxtaposition between people at the moment! What happened to the ‘in-between’? Imagine this scenario, you say something contentious to me, such as ‘the dress is blue and gold’ and I say, ‘no it isn’t, it’s cream and black’. Now, we are clearly seeing things differently and that’s ok but it doesn’t mean we need to be arch enemies that never speak again! Rather simply, we both shrug our shoulders and move on to talk about something else! I just don’t understand this concept of ‘sides’, life is not that simple for any of us to not appreciate the grey areas in everything we say, do, perceive etc. Whatever happened to ‘turn the other cheek’ or even ‘walk a mile in someone else’s shoes’? I’ve seen about 5 examples of businesses & charities trying to be ‘taken down’ by internet trolls who like to complain, which is disappointing to say the least after the 18 months everyone has just has. On the flip side, I have recently experienced first-hand the kindest of strangers; walking back from the office to the car laden with dogs, bags and boxes, a lovely lady stopped and asked if I needed any help to carry anything. Well, you know what they say around here, ‘nowt so funny as folk’! Talking of ‘Freedom Day’, at this stage we still don’t know what’s happening with events at the time of writing & going to print. We aren’t sure if our beloved YNot festival is going ahead, my heart goes out to them and the rest of the hospitality industry as they find themselves in yet another state of limbo in which they are expected to ‘Pivot’. As a large proportion of society have discovered, it’s very difficult to survive financially when you can’t trade/go to work/have minimal income and the stress for the owners/organisers must be phenomenal. We

have our fingers and toes crossed for everyone involved that the test events go well and that the rest of the events community including YNot get the go ahead at the beginning of July. With this in mind, we’re now planning to bring our community events and diaries back in August or September editions, depending on what happens in the next few weeks and how much time we’ll have to put it together prior to print. If you were in any of these last time, please don’t assume that you will be included going forward, we will be starting from scratch! We’ll try and call some of the people from the previous listings but if you are a community group/not-for-profit organisation and you are planning events for later this year and/or you have regular meetings, send us an email to: info@voicemagazines.co.uk and one of the team will get back to you. These listings are free, they will only be a minimal listing and only accessible to community or not-for profit groups. However, if these groups would like something a little larger, we’ve put together and trialled in our Kirkby magazine, a community noticeboard. You can choose the size you require and prices start from £6+vat per square but you can buy multiple squares. Why not pop over to our issuu site or Facebook page if you don’t receive that edition, to have a look for yourself. Happy Reading,

Emily x

Sutton Heritage Society

Whit Walk - Part Two On the day, everyone dressed in their smart new clothes. Most were wearing bonnets or hats. Children would go to their Sunday Schools. The respective Choirs would be there dressed in their choral robes. The Clergy, the Vergers, Churchwardens, Sunday School Teachers, Children, and Adult Congregation would all take part. Among the Churches involved would be Chatsworth St; St Bartholomew’s, Congregational Churc, Forest Side Methodists, Leamington Drive Church, New Cross Methodists, Outram St Methodists, Priestsic Road Methodists, Reorganised Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Salvation Army, St John’s Churc, St Joseph’s Church, St Mark’s Church, St Mary’s Church, St Michael’s Church, St Modwen’s Church, United Reformed Church, Victoria Street Baptists, and Zion Baptists. Typically held yearly in late May or early June, Sutton held its own Whit Walk, with Huthwaite and Skegby Churches each having their own separate gatherings. People would line up outside their respective Churches. At the front of each Church Procession, their unique processional banner was held high, ready for leading the march round the streets. In front of the procession, a uniformed Brass Band. Lyres attached to the instruments held the music which they would need. Sunday School Teachers watched over the younger children. Some children carried flower baskets or flowers on streamers. Sometimes, ribbons or ropes were placed at the side of the youngsters which they could hold on to as they were walking. They lined up in pairs close to the front of the parade. Following behind them were teenagers, and finally adults. St Johns Ambulance Brigade were there, often kept busy with people fainting in the heat. Marshalls walked alongside and looked for any problems. One procession would start from the bottom end of the town, Outram Street area, and the other at the opposite side of the town, usually St Marys. The Brass Bands played as they were walking along the streets, and as they met with another Church Procession, they would join together in sequence. The roads around the Old Market Place would fill with spectators long before the processions reached there, although some people would walk alongside them as they

made their way towards the Market Place. It was an occasion all looked forward to. Known as the Walk of Witness, it is thought that the idea was brought back to Sutton by William Bonser around 1840, after he had seen it happen while on a visit to Manchester. The Police co-ordinated both processions to make sure they arrived together, although sometimes it meant holding one side back to wait for the other to catch up. The columns filed on to the Market Place in rows, and waited for everyone to get into place. Banners were leaned against a wall in the Market Square. The platform was waiting for the officials to arrive. The Market Place was packed to capacity and spectators were looking from windows and balconies, as well as covering the pavements around the area. Hymn sheets were given out, and collecting tins were rattled. The Clergy mounted the podium, the Conductor was in place, and the Band got ready to play. As the service began, the Ministers took turns introducing the hymns, and of course the National Anthem. The crowd joined in enthusiastically with the singing, accompanied by one of the bands. Afterwards they walked via King Street, Woods Hill and Low Street back to their Church Halls/Sunday Schools where they received a Whitsuntide bun. When the collection tins were gathered and money counted, after the costs were taken out the remaining donations went to a charity like Save the Children Fund.

Slimming World Recipe Peri-Peri Chicken & Chips It’s BBQ season! Being on plan doesn’t mean missing out with this fabulous recipe. Why not replace the Peri Peri sauce with another brand or flavour for a different taste? Serves: 4 Ready in: 1 hour Syns per serving: ½ Method: 1. Preheat your oven to 190°C/fan 170°C/gas 5 and line a large baking tray with baking paper. Mix together the peri-peri sauce, tomato purée, lemon juice and garlic and season lightly. Rub all over the chicken legs, place on the prepared tray and roast for 10 minutes. 2. Remove the tray from the oven and carefully spread the chips out around the chicken. Season lightly, spray with low-calorie cooking spray and cook for a further 40 minutes, flipping the chips and spraying them with more low-calorie cooking spray halfway. 3. Meanwhile, mix together all the slaw ingredients. Divide the chicken, chips and slaw between 4 plates to serve.

Ingredients: For the chicken & chips: • 2 level tbsp Nando’s Medium Peri-Peri Sauce (or similar) • 1 tbsp tomato purée • 2 tbsp lemon juice • 1 garlic clove, crushed • 4 chicken legs, skin removed • 1kg potatoes, cut into thin chips • Low-calorie cooking spray

This walk dates back to March 2014. We took the boys out last month to re-walk the route and found one part overgrown and blocked off, so to avoid you getting as badly nettled as we were we have re-routed a section. It’s a shame that public footpaths get blocked but we have to adapt and do the best we can and the walk is well worth it! It begins in Doe Hill Country Park, which has some lovely paths to explore before we pick up part of the Silverhill Trail. From here we head up along one of the Five Pits Trail paths before we loop back to return to Doe Hill Country Park.

5½ mile circular walk from Doe Hill Country Park A moderate walk for you and your dog. The route should take around 2½ hours. Whilst a large part of the walk is trails and paths there are some fields to cross with uneven and potentially muddy sections so a good pair of boots or wellies is a must. There is a section of road and roads to cross, so please take care and keep dogs on leads at these times.

Monday to Friday: 9am - 6pm Saturday: 9am - 6pm Sunday: 10am - 4pm • Bank Holiday Monday 9am - 6pm Mansfield Road, Autton in Ashfield, NG17 4HG

Start: Doe Hill Country Park Car Park, Doe Hill Lane, between Tibshelf and Stonebroom, DE55 6JS 1.

Take the path that leads directly from the car park (by the poop bag bin). Follow this path as it winds around until it joins with another path from the right, then take the next left, almost immediately, heading uphill. Follow this path again as it winds until it joins with another path from the right and again take the next left, almost immediately. Follow this path until it brings you to Alfreton Road. Cross the road and take the wide track (Gloves Lane) after a metal barrier on the other side. Follow this track for approximately 100 meters before taking the second of two paths on your left (the Silverhill Trail.

Continue along the trail until you meet a sign on your right. Take the horse stile on your left towards the ‘Five Pits Trail’. Follow this path until you meet a cross roads, taking the first path on your right. (This route can be fairly muddy. If you are keen to avoid this, you can continue ahead here on the Five Pits Trail to take you to point 5.)

Follow this path until it joins Saw pit lane, bearing left. After another 200 meters take a signposted footpath on your left. Follow the path as it joins Wetton Lane and follow until you reach the main road (B6014).

Turn left here and cross the road at the crossing before joining the five pits trail directly ahead. Keep to the main path downhill until a crossing of a small path. Turn left on the small path, cross over a lane and pass through a width restrictor.

Follow the path, ignoring steps on the right. Continue onto a road (Monsall Crescent) and keep ahead. At a T-junction, turn left and follow the road as it bends round to the right. Ignore roads leading off and then, as the road bends

Call us on 01623 441 320

round to the right again, take a short road onto a wide track footpath off to the left, just before a play park. 7.

Keep ahead to the end of the path where there are turns left and right. Take the turn on the left to immediate pass through a gap in the hedge on your left. Turn right to walk alongside the field with the hedge on your right. At the bottom corner of the field pass through a kissing gate and turn left to walk alongside the field to cross a stile in the corner of the filed, onto Doe Hill Lane.

Turn right here and follow Doe Hill Lane back to Doe Hill Country Park. Where appropriate cross the road to make use of the footpaths available.

GARDENS

The exotic species of the Peaks and surrounding areas We love our native fauna and flora, but increasingly there are exotic wildlife species establishing across the region and in many cases we need to adjust and learn to appreciate them. A ‘weed’ is a plant in the wrong place but this is often a subjective label which we attach for various reasons; and of course many alien ‘weeds’ in the wild escape from our gardens and often natives in our gardens are viewed as ‘weeds’! Furthermore, a good number of the most familiar flowers and wild fauna like mammals and birds are not native and of these many are celebrated species firmly established as part of our natural heritage. Canada goose and common ring-necked pheasant for example, are widely recognisable birds making up a significant proportion of wild bird biomass in Britain, but are nonnatives. For example, in the Peak District the iconic mountain hare which is native to Britain is not native here, or at least not for a very long time. It was reintroduced by Victorian grouse-moor owners. By contrast the specially protected brown hare is not at all native to Britain but came with Celts for whom it had deep cultural significance. It was later reintroduced by the Romans and subsequently the Normans. So this is all very confusing. The fallow deer around Matlock and Darley Dale are also not at all native but are a Mediterranean animal and the dark (melanistic) animals of North Derbyshire are escapees from a famous medieval herd at Stanton-in-the Peak. Obviously the now familiar grey squirrel is a North American import, but then many of the now regionally-extinct red squirrels were in fact reintroductions by landowners. Chatsworth even had a population of dark– coloured reds which were of German origin and could be seen up to the 1970s.

With flowers things become even more complex with exotic cultivars and varieties of what are native plants escaping from gardens to establish in the wild. We see this with wild daffodil populations now mingling with garden narcissi; and most famously perhaps with so-called ‘Spanish bluebell’ spreading widely and in fact a hybrid of the British and Iberian or Spanish bluebells. A few thousand years ago these were all one species anyway…… Added to this situation is the way in which we subjectively like some species but not others. Botanists tend to like the beautiful and exotic yellow European leopard’s-bane but are less keen on North American skunk cabbage or Indian Balsam; all are colonising the Derbyshire River Derwent.

Some of these plants sneak in unseen until they appear everywhere and one of those is the few-flowered leek with its garlic-scented leaves and now spreading along roadsides and woodland edges everywhere. Its cousin, the three-cornered leek is not far behind. Both Danish and English scurvygrass are along all our major roads where winter salt is put down. These saltmarsh species are native to Britain but certainly not to Derbyshire and the Peaks. It does make you think!

Gardener’s Calendar

While you’re sitting there with your summer glass of something cool, admiring the results of this year’s hard work, remember one word – DEADHEAD. Not a romantic word admittedly, but really important. For more blooms, take their heads off as soon as the flower has gone over. Don’t let the plant set seed or it will think its job is done and not bother flowering again. Sweet peas especially need to be picked often and always take out their seed pods. Watch out that your pond, if you’re lucky enough to have one, doesn’t start to dry out if we have hot or windy weather. If you’ve got fish or amphibians it’s best to use rainwater to top up, as tap water has nutrients which will encourage algae to grow. But if you do use cold tap water add it gradually so it’s not too much of a shock to your wildlife. If there’s lots of weeds on the surface, twirl them out with a stick and leave them on the side overnight so beasties can crawl out.

Lots of this month’s plants will benefit from a bit of pruning back if they start to lose energy, and are flowering less. Cut back penstemons to just above a bud, and take growth back in hanging baskets to encourage another flush of blooms. But do feed them well after this small shock. Perennial geraniums will often have a second flowering if you take the flowering stalks back once they have died.

Top Tip If you want lavender to hang round the house, always take just opened stems which will give the best scent. Then hang in a cool dark place to let them dry. 06/11/2018 18:16
