Amateur Dramatics The Epworth Mowbray Players No.16 by Anthony Catherall
“Candied Peel” a play by Falkland L. Carey, a drama of big business and murder was the sixteenth production the Epworth Mowbray Players had put on. Mary Housham, relinquished her role of producer and took to the stage once more as Mrs Corntonhart. David F. Rowe, another schoolteacher who had last performed in ‘Queen Elizabeth Slept Here’ had a double success in the dual role both as the producer and playing the part of a fake man from Scotland Yard. The local press – SH, hailed it as the best of the last half dozen they had previewed. Gordon Fletcher was one of the surprises whose extreme capability as the Candied Peel addict. “He has come a long way” they stated, giving a representation of a business tycoon who sets about finding out who poisoned him, giving the role conviction and authority. Whilst Mary was giving the wit of the play its astringence, in the wise-crack department was the responsibility of Brian Taylor, as the young inventor brought into the story to add another character with motive for the attempted poisoning. Both Trimingham’s as usual were most adept and light comedienne Ella Dempster once more shone with her farcical spinster role. The three women with a more germane incidence, Patricia Wilson, as the Big Man’s secretary, Marie Coggan, as his ward, and Pat Rowe, as the partners wife were all sound, Mrs Wilson particularly so; we must add to this list the two newcomers, Angela Robinson, who performed unobtrusively but quite nicely as the maid, and Eric Carpenter who handled the part of the doctor in a manner that suggested he had a future on the amateur stage. Personally, I like the design of the programme cover that made ones eyes dart all over the page. Credit must go as always to the printers Barnes & Breeze for all the programmes they had printed over the years.

Wi-Fi Wi-Fi has been installed into the Haxey Memorial Hall free of charge from the local authority, it is also hoped that this will also be installed into the Westwoodside Pavilion. Official Opening of the Jubilee Garden in Haxey On Tuesday 10th September a memorial garden to celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee was officially opened in Haxey by Wilf Lindley (pictured). Wilf, a former Parish Councillor and one of Haxey’s oldest residents actually planted the tree in 1947 from which some of the play pieces have been cleverly sculpted by local resident Colin Matthias. As well as representatives from Haxey Parish Council, several children from Haxey pre-school joined in the opening ceremony and thoroughly enjoyed playing on the wooden mushroom stools, table and other toys. The memorial garden, which has been sited on Dr Dyson’s garden, has been funded from the sale of Haxey Jubilee calendars and is a fitting finale to the wonderful celebrations a year ago.

New Councillor The Parish Council received 6 applications in total for the Parish Council vacancy and was very pleased with the response and enthusiasm from residents to join the Parish Council. The Parish Council voted and welcomes new Councillor George Fiddler who will be joining the Council at their September meeting. Fracking Haxey Parish Residents will no doubt be aware of the national “conversations” concerning the production of shale gas through the process of “fracking”, which uses chemicals and high pressure water to fracture gas bearing rocks at extreme depths to release the gas. On the positive side, this process has been successfully used in the United States and has had a profound effect on the provision of US energy and it is hoped that a similar positive effect could be achieved in the UK. There has also been speculation that areas considered suitable for the process could receive funding for use by local communities. On the negative side, there are concerns that the “fracking” process could pollute water courses and also instigate local “earthquakes/earth tremors, which were indeed experienced in the North West of the UK at an experimental site and caused the site to be closed down. Residents may also be aware of a recent article in the Epworth Bells, which specifically mentioned “fracking” and the villages of Westwoodside and Haxey. At the August Parish Council Meeting, the Council was addressed by Mrs Turner from Epworth, who expressed her concerns and those of Isle Residents about the potential for “fracking” operations to be carried out in our area. The Ward Councillor has also asked North Lincolnshire Council Planning Department if they were aware of any planning applications applying for “fracking” operations in the area to which the answer was none. In summary, the Parish Council is well aware of the national conversation on the “fracking” issue and to date it has not formally discussed the subject; however, it will continue to keep the issue under review and will bring it to the Council agenda should any substantive information emerge. If Residents have any information, concerns or views they wish to share with the Parish Council on this issue, they are encouraged to contact the Parish Council Clerk or individual Parish Councillors. Best Kept Village Results Haxey Playing Field won the best kept playground category this year with a comment of ‘this playground was a delight, well done!’ Haxey came third in the small town category. Some of the comments made by the judges are as follows:Haxey * * * * *
The playground and sports facilities were both excellent. Hanging baskets and planters were very good. The churchyard was well cared for and the chapel was tidy. Some business premises could have done more to improve their appearance. Notice boards were very good.
Westwoodside * * *
All natural features were well maintained. Pretty planters in the village otherwise community planting was very sparse. Business premises – all well maintained.
The Parish Council hope to address some of the negatives received in the judging. A big thank you to those of you that provide excellent displays in your gardens and help keep the parish a nice place to live.

FESTIVAL OF THE PLOUGH 2013 They came in their thousands to see two outside events that proved to be the stars of the show, humans pitting their strength against each other Despite the threatened heavy rain forecast for our region the festival attracted many new visitors from all over the region on Sunday 15 September 2013, at High Burnham Farm near Epworth courtesy of Simon & Lynne Clark. (President Harold Woolgar stated “the BBC weather forecasters were wrong yet again, possibly deterring many more visitors”) However, the day overall was mostly dry but windy with a few showers.
Lynne Clark (land owner)– John Smith (chairman of FOTP committee – Simon Clarke (land owner) A gift of gratitude
Anthony Catherall, Press Secretary said, “ I had a feeling of excitement when I saw the flat car-park at 11.00 am, it was filling rapidly, we thank the public, the traders, exhibitors, all service providers in the main and of course the organisers all arriving on time to make the show highly enjoyable for all who attended. Unfortunately, because of forecasts of projected high winds or soft ground some attractions were withdrawn these included; Steam traction engines – Threshing machine. The Gallopers and swings were cancelled by the operator due to projected high winds. These circumstances were beyond our control”. Two outside events in particular, both with low cost implications, grabbed the public’s imagination to both try and watch. Starting first the Brick Lifting competition and later the Tug’O’War, both events, being new to the festival this year. The Brick lifting competition being almost cost free to organise, saw fierce competiveness both in the ladies and men’s section. All day long people flocked to the stall to pit their strength with onlookers watching in awe. Even the local constabulary tried their hand, with Epworth P.C. Teresa Fisher-Hagggar, reaching the top three in the ladies lift. But there were two real stars of the event, Matt Barlow of Epworth a young tall strong muscled man who won the men’s lift achieving 19 bricks, and Beckie Matt Barlow Lovell-Kelly of Crowle.
24
Please mention
In the ladies lift off final, between Louisa Severn of Belton and Beckie LovellKelly of Crowle, the girls had men including me looking on in amazement at their physical strength , as they fought it out. Most men on the day couldn’t lift the 15 bricks that pretty, petite Beckie achieved. Both finalists received £25.00 each for their enBeckie Lovell-Kelly deavours. “The Arrow” when responding to advertisements
Young Farmers
The Tug’O’War, organised by the local Young Farmers, was in the early afternoon hilarious fun and extremely entertaining to watch as hundreds did. With a little help here and there, the extended ladies team eventually saw of the men proving hugely popular with the crowd.
A grand sight for all was 80 year old John Smith, driving his 1917 ‘Overtime’ tractor ploughing in the Third- field, (I’ve never seen a tractor like it). Lower down the field, about a half mile away from the show field one could see tractors of all ages, sizes and design trundling along, to the very clear back-drop of West Burton power station towers 13 miles away, at Gainsborough.
The nine marquees were full all day, providing respite from the rare southern winds that proved a little trying for all but the hardy. Nevertheless the entertainment inside was of the highest order for both children and adults alike. We were indebted to ‘Mr Murderie’s Players, who came to perform ‘The Plough Play.

YOUNGSTERS RAISE OVER £600 FOR CHARITY The sun shone on the final efforts of two youngsters, who held a series of fundraising events, during August, ending with a stall at the Epworth Show. Jade Anderton and Abygayle Wood (pictured left and right respectively) - together a Make A Difference (MAD) Lifestyle Team - set out to raise money for Five Villages First Responders and Air Ambulance. The final event in Misterton was a Fun Day, held in the Methodist Hall and grounds and was the penultimate event in a month of fund-raising activities – and other charities also benefitted in the bargain! Jade and Aby wanted to support other local causes at the same time as raising money for their two chosen charities - and that's exactly what they did. On 15 August, Jade and Abygayle did a sponsored swim. Jade did 110 lengths of the 20m Epworth pool in an hour. Not content with that, she carried on and completed a grand total of 115 lengths and raised £140! Aby completed 30 lengths in just over an hour -but hadn’t got any sponsors as she didn't think she would do any more than nine lengths! The Misterton Primary School Leavers’ BBQ and disco on 17 July was next: they raised £20.50 with a 'Guess How Many Sweets in the Jar’ game. Next, on 22 August, they did a Bake Sale at the Co-op in Misterton and raised £68! A big thank you to Manager, Brenda Gleadle, for allowing them to have the stall and giving her support. The Fun Day on 25 August at the Methodist Church raised £94.01p after expenses for Air Ambulance and First Responders. And here’s where the girls’ efforts helped other charities too: £12 was raised for Bassetlaw Hospice; the Methodist and All Saints’ Churches raised £90 selling refreshments and cakes that they split equally between them; Misterton PTA raised a total of £56 (£26 Guess the weight of Toby the tortoise and £30 at the Tuck Shop); Ladybirds Playgroup raised £18 selling hotdogs and South Axholme Sharks raised £31.50 selling cupcakes. Then on 26 August, the girls had a stall at Epworth Show with table-top games raising £80 after expenses. North Notts Lions donated £200 at the start of their fundraising, presented to them by President, Barry Cooper, which was a fantastic start, and this gives them a grand total of £582.01p raised. So Yorkshire Air Ambulance and the Five Villages First Responders will get £301.25p each! As well as the work that went into organising the Bake Sale, the Fun Day, and Epworth Show, the girls spent a lot of time canvassing shops for raffle prizes, working on a website, which is almost complete, and helping Pat Hodges, who provides activities for the residents, of Southmoor Lodge in Walkeringham - and have loved it! They plan to continue assisting Pat in school holidays and on Saturday afternoons once a month. Thanks to all those who supported the events and helped raise a terrific sum for charity.

Westwoodside Church of England Academy Trust Superheroes The children who are now in our Years 1 and 2 classes were given a ‘Superheroes Challenge’ to complete at home over the Summer holidays. They were asked to design a superhero and nearly all the children participated, resulting in a wide range of responses including model and mask making, sewing and writing. The children all showed a real strength of creativity. Thank you to all the Parents/Carers who supported their child/ren in this activity which provided a great introduction to their ‘Superheroes’ project in School this term.An account by teacher, Gemma Harris, of Westwoodside CE Primary School In the summer term, Year Five children from all over the Isle of Axholme gathered together for a pilgrimage project at the local secondary school, South Axholme. The schools involved were Owston Ferry, Belton, Wroot, West Butterwick and our school, Westwoodside. First, Mr Bob Fish talked about his pilgrimage to Machu Picchu. Then we paraded with our school banners and explained what they meant to us. We sang different hymns on the theme of pilgrimage, including ‘One more step’ and ‘He who would valiant be’. The South Axholme band accompanied us, which we really enjoyed. After that, children from each school talked about where they go to on pilgrimages and why they are special to them. We did a short performance, demonstrating our pilgrimage to our local church, St Nicholas’ in Haxey. We walk there at special times of the year including Christmas, Easter and the Leavers’ service. We prepared a ‘Scratch’ ICT presentation and a collage of us walking to the church. We really enjoyed the pilgrimage event and hope other Year 5s do in the future. Recently, we have had a series of successful writers achieving well in national writing competitions. Eleanor Morley, who has now moved on to Year 7 at South Axholme Academy, was chosen (from over 2,000 poems!) as one of the commended entrants for this year’s John Betjeman Poetry Competition for Young People. Eleanor won a prize of £25 in book tokens. Jodi Lawson, now in our Year 6, was one of only ten runners up from hundreds of entries to the Pen-a-Story writing competition. Entrants had to complete the beginning of a story about a magic pen. Her story has now been published on line. While they were in Year 1, children took part in the Young Writers’ Competition. They were provided with a storyboard consisting of four pictures to form the basis of a complete story entitled ‘A Monster Adventure’ which they wrote independently during one of their ‘Big Write’ lessons. There were many entries from schools across the UK and overseas. We were thrilled that eight of our children were chosen to receive certificates, which were presented in a recent assembly to Emily Bruce, Daniel Calow, Poppy Elliot, Heather Jenman, Ellen Malson, Imogen Morley, Olivia Phillips and Libby Steele. All eight stories will be published in a book to be kept in the British Library. Thank you to all the Staff involved in organising the entries to the competitions. Congratulations to all our brilliant writers! 30 Please mention “The Arrow” when responding to Roger Marshall Head Teacher

TRENTSIDE FEDERATION SCHOOL NEWS Following our Summer Break we have returned refreshed for the new academic year. We welcome Mrs Francis to the teaching team at St Martin’s. There are plenty of interesting learning experiences unfolding at both schools since the start of the Autumn Term. West Butterwick has been studying the history of the scarecrow, working on some imaginative entries for this year’s Festival of the Plough’s Scarecrow competition. I am pleased to report that Class 2’s ‘Harry Spotter’ won the Key Stage 2 category. (shown on front cover) The ‘school-grown’ vegetables at West Butterwick have almost all been harvested now, resulting in a delicious ‘home grown’ pumpkin pie, kindly baked by one of our parents. The carrots were a great success and all children had the opportunity to take a bunch home with them. Soup-making is now on the timetable using even more of our own veg – leeks and carrots. The Junior pupils at St Martin’s have started on their ‘World War II’ topic, looking at the Blitz and the lives/experiences of child evacuees, as well as sequencing key events in WW2 such as the D-Day Landings. They will be designing and making gas masks, periscopes and air raid shelters. A number of children in Key Stage 2 have been selected as ‘Playground Leaders’, who will be involved in helping with playground games and activities at break-times. Some of the pupils in Key Stage 1 are involved in the planning of an Alien Party for the rest of their ‘earthling colleagues’ in class 2, looking at the maths (costings) as well as creating menus (weighing and measuring). The menu will feature cakes, biscuits, pizza and jelly. Apparently, the party will be ‘out of this world’! This fits in well with the class’ Science topic of ‘The Earth and Beyond’. Years 1 and 2 pupils at St Martin’s are to enjoy an educational visit to the RSPB Reserve at Beckingham Marshes, shortly. They will research and study local wildlife. Both schools in our Federation will continue to receive specialist music tuition. We look forward to hearing some of the wonderful trumpet and recorder playing in our church services and special assemblies! Pupils also continue to learn French from Infants right through to Year 6. They are doing very well in connection with this. Bon effort! At this time of year, we are also busy planning our Harvest Festival Services. A number of the West Butterwick pupils are involved in the newly introduced Family Services at St Mary’s Church too. The dates for these are 22 nd September, 27th October and 24th November. We look forward to a productive and interesting term!

What better place to start than to think about the fruit that your tree or trees -has produced. Now is the right time to be finishing off the picking of your apples and pears before the first frosts come. You will want to use some of your fruit now – perhaps for eating, or preserving, or make into juice – as well as putting some into store so that you have fruit available through the winter. Different trees produce ripe fruit at different times. One of the earliest apples in the shops is Discovery. This lovely apple is best eaten when the flesh of the fruit starts to go pink. Trees with a similar habit are Katy, Worcester Pearmain and Devonshire Quarandon. The latter grows in my garden and its fruit ripens towards the end of August – although this year all fruit seems about a week or two behind the normal timetable as a result of the cold wet spring. With these early apples there is to point in putting many of them into store. They are laden with juice and do not keep well. They are best eaten fresh, but also make fantastic apple juice and cider. Throughout September and October the fruit of other apple and pear trees starts to mature. I have a large Bramley apple in my garden and I try to pick its fruit during the middle to end of October. Such apples will store through the winter so long as they are not damaged by bruising, codling moth or anything else. You will know when an apple is ready to pick as when you hold it in your hand – when it is still attached to the tree by its stalk – it will easily come away from the tree. If you have to tug at the apple to release it from the tree it is probably not yet ripe. Another way of telling whether an apple is right is to cut it open. The pips of a ripe apple are brown. When the tree is not yet ripe its pips are white. I have tried a number of ways to store apples. The best way I have found is to use some large cardboard trays – you can normally get these for free from local shops – and lay the undamaged fruit out in them. Cover them with a sheet of newspaper and put the tray somewhere cool and dark. A garage might be suitable or an outside shed. Most houses are too warm to store apples since the central heating dries and shrivels the fruit. Keep an eye out for mice which are partial to a nice apple. Inspect the fruit in the trays every week or so and discard any that start to rot. The Apple of Your Isle is a little organisation which encourages the growth and use of apples and pears. If you would like more information about our activities or would like to talk about your trees and fruit, please contact Peter Barnard on 01427 873937.

Westwoodside C of E Primary School News
On our first day some of us were petrified about our first day as Year 6. We didn't know what to expect or what our Teacher would be like!! When we got into the classroom, we sat with our friends but we knew it would change! We did the register (just Y6) then some Year 5s came to work with us! HURRAY!! We found out our Maths and Literacy places and started Maths - number sequences are great! Then it was time for Assembly, break and then we did Literacy - an email to a friend about our holiday! Then it was dinner, we got new places to sit and different people to talk to. School dinners are really yummy, especially puddings! WOW! In the afternoon we were put into topic groups and learnt about Modern Greece! We looked in the atlases and found out where Greece was, which countries border it and the seas that surround it! FUN! We went outside for some fresh air, did a lap round the field (girls went first) then went on the climbing trail (along a wobbly wooden beam, across the terrible tyres, around the putrid poles and across the beastly bridge). Just in time to get our bags, put our chairs up and go home! EVERYONE IN YEAR 6 REALLY ENJOYED THEIR FIRST DAY!! By BETH LARCOMBE And MEGAN LISTER

DRINK-DRIVERS FACE TOUGHER RULES Dear readers, Drink-drive rules involving the most serious offenders are to be tightened up. Under new regulations the most dangerous offenders will have to prove they are no longer dependent on alcohol before they are allowed to get back behind the wheel. The new measures will also see those drink-drivers who obstruct the police by refusing to allow their blood samples to be analysed being treated the same as other high risk offenders. Currently, all high risk offenders must pass a medical examination before they can be issued with a driving licence following their disqualification. However, drivers can start driving as soon as they have applied for their licence and before they have taken and passed the necessary medical. But from June 1 the most dangerous drink-drivers will have to pass a medical confirming they are no longer alcohol dependent at the end of their disqualification and BEFORE they start driving. Also, those offenders who refuse to allow their blood samples to be analysed will also, from June 1, only get their licence back following disqualification if they pass the required medical. Under the High Risk Offender (HRO) scheme, drivers convicted of certain serious drink/driving offences must have a medical investigation to confirm that there are no on-going problems with the misuse of alcohol before they can be issued with a licence. The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA is notified of such offenders by the courts. Last year the DVLA was notified by the courts of just over 50,000 drink-driving convictions. Nearly 22,000 of those were classed as high risk offenders. Of those, around 5,000 drivers either failed, or failed to attend, their medical. Road Safety Minister Stephen Hammond said: "Drink-drivers are a menace and it is right that we do everything we can to keep the most high risk offenders off the road. If you are interested in further information regarding the courses that we offer you will be able to find this information by contacting. Paul Tuke.
