Editors’Letter Welcome to the November/December issue of Chiltern View magazine. As we all know, this has been another difficult year for many, but now it is a time to look forward, and hopefully feel more positive. Things are definitely different from last year, but on the whole it seems people are feeling cautiously optimistic. Hopefully this year we can celebrate Bonfire Night and Christmas with all our friends and loved ones and make it extra special.
There are so many things to look forward to in the next couple of months and we have included many of them in this issue. For your chance to win tickets to the Panto at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre (p.8). We have information about Risborough’s Tree of Light (p.10), Christmas in Thame (p.12), Scannappeal’s Santa Stroll (p.22), Thame Players Panto (p.32), a Cello concert (p.48), Christmas in Risborough (p.54) and Lindengate in Lights (p.60). Excitingly, our community pages are starting to fill up with many organisations meeting again and arranging social events (p.62/63). We also have a great article from the Wallingford Accessible Boat club, who arrange for people with disabilities to get out on the water – a wonderful charity who make special days out come true (p.52). All of this, plus our usual articles and puzzles!
We felt again this year, that it wasn’t too early to get in the festive spirit, so we have decorated the magazine and included a very sparkly front cover. In addition, we are offering a fantastic competition aimed mainly at the children, but if you are still a kid at heart then please feel free to enter; for your chance to win one of 5 delicious chocolate treats. Just look through the magazine and find Santa flying across the sky pulled by his reindeer. Email Coralie at salesprv@live.co.uk by Friday 3rd December and let us know where you’ve found him.
We would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all our readers, advertisers and community organisations for your support again this year. We are so grateful to our wonderful delivery team who make sure you receive the magazine every couple of months.

LOCAL THEATRE COMPETITION
Christmas is Coming! There is enough festive fun to fill the biggest of grottos at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre this Christmas!
The slapstick calamities kick off in November with multi-award-winning smash hit, The Play That Goes Wrong (Mon 22 – Sat 27 Nov). You’ll be left aching with laughter after watching The Cornley Drama Society putting on a 1920s murder mystery where everything that could go wrong… does!
Then the tradition that is a must for families – the Waterside’s annual sparkling pantomime returns. This year you’re invited to the ball as a cast including favourites Andy Collins and La Voix take to the stage in Cinderella (Fri 3 Dec 2021 – Sun 2 Jan 2022). If you haven’t yet experienced a panto at the venue, think laugh-a-minute fun, audience participation, stunning costumes, spine-tingling songs and non-stop action as this most favourite of fairy tales is brought to life right before your eyes. There’s more! This year the festive offering is extended to the theatre’s intimate Second Space with a magical story of Santa’s Elves and the Shoemaker from Fri 17 – Thu 23 Dec. The Christmas
story features original songs and energetic dancing and tells the tale of penniless shoemaker Mr Klopp, who needs his festive audience’s help to discover who is getting into his shoe shop and making the most splendid shoes. Looking for stocking fillers? Gift vouchers make the perfect gift and can be used for all shows at the venue. Check online at atgtickets. com/aylesbury for a full list of forthcoming events and book your tickets today by calling 0844 871 7615 (fees apply. Calls charged at 7p per minute).
Competition Time Celebrate with Cinderella and win 4 x tickets to the ball!
To win 4x tickets to Cinderella at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre on Tue 14 Dec at 6pm, simply tell us what type of fruit gets used by the Fairy Godmother A) Pomegranate
B) Pumpkin
C) Apple

Christmas in Thame 2021 Following the success of last year’s advent calendar, Thame Town Council will be producing another ‘calendar of events’ booklet that will be delivered to every house in Thame. There will be an event every Friday, Saturday and Sunday in December, plus festive competitions, and activities to get involved with throughout the month. The events begin with the Christmas Lights Switch-On, on Friday 3rd of December This year the event will be scaled down compared to
12
previous years, but don’t worry - there’ll still be lots to come and enjoy including mulled wine, live music, children’s characters, and Santa hats as we ring in Christmas to Thame. Throughout December look out for pop-up events including a street food market, live music performances, gift fairs, a carousel, selfie-station, and the return of the popular Window Wanderland! Of course, it wouldn’t be Christmas without a visit from Santa – he will be visiting Thame’s streets with his sleigh in December as
well as making a special visit to his Grotto in the Town Centre! We’ll also be running competitions over the festive period for you to get involved with, with prizes generously donated by local businesses. More details about what’s on when can be found throughout the booklet (which will be available in November), via the ‘Christmas in Thame’ Facebook page or the Town Council’s website www.thametowncouncil. gov.uk/christmas.

KINETICO WATER enjoy perfectly filtered water on tap, 24/7
We all know the importance of hydration to aid a healthy mind and body. With Kinetico, hydrate yourself with crystal clear, filtered water, on tap! Our range of Kinetico Drinking Water Filters have been designed to remove impurities like chlorine, lead and bacteria from your water supply. That means the taste and smell of your water will be clean and fresh, you’ll avoid the risk of consuming bacteria which can lead to gastrointestinal problems and if your home was built pre-1970s you’ll be protecting your family from the possible dangers of lead consumption. Tea’s the season - to enjoy the perfect cuppa With filtered water on tap, you’ll also be able to enjoy a beautiful, limescalefree shiny kettle. That means they’ll be no more flakes in the bottom of your coffee and the layer of film will be gone from your cup of tea. Hard Water
Soft Water
Better than jug filtered water, a Kinetico Water Filter is also cheaper per litre than bottled water, meaning you can save money and stop buying plastic bottles too.
Get your FREE Festive Water Recipe Book today Try out our delicious recipes from top chefs and food writers, including immune system boosting cocktails and antioxidant-packed teas. Transform the water in your whole home too With a Kinetico Water Softener you can banish hard water and limescale from your entire home, forever. That means no more clogged shower heads, crusty taps or water marked surfaces. A difference straight away When you wash in soft Kinetico water your skin will feel softer and your hair will look shinier. Your tiles, shower screen and work surfaces will be so much easier and quicker to clean too.
Save time and money, and look after your appliances Limescale build up in an appliance can cause it to work less efficiently and wear out more quickly. The more expensive the appliance the more costly it is to repair and renew. Over the course of a year, you could even save up to £400 (average family of 4) on cleaning products and toiletries. Simple and easy to install A Kinetico Water Softener is non-electric so there’s no wiring required. Installation is simple and running costs low. Compact and quiet, it can fit neatly under your kitchen sink.

Robin Hood and his Merry Men to the Rescue (at last)! We are delighted to be putting on our popular Christmas pantomime, after a year when it could not be held – for reasons we all know! Rehearsals for this year’s panto, Babes in the Wood are well underway, as you can see from the pictures - oh, yes, they are! It’s the story of two young children (the Babes), who are left abandoned deep in the forest by their wicked uncle and left to die, following the death of their father. The uncle thinks he will thereby inherit the fortune their father left them. But his plot is foiled when Robin Hood and his Merry Men rescue the Babes and they return to the castle with Maid Marion. The uncle is unmasked as the villain and the Babes get their rightful inheritance – oh, yes, they do!!
Babes in the Wood will include all the ingredients you’d expect in a Thame Players’ panto, with plenty of fun and jokes, music, singing and dancing for all the family. Booking is open from 25th October, so get your tickets today!

My name is Lola, I’m a Staffordshire Bull Terrier and about 7 years old I was rehomed in April 2018 sadly 8 months later I was relinquished to another rescue in a very sorry state. It has taken me an incredibly long time to get nursed back to health as my previous owner failed to continue with the treatment for my skin. Despite everything I have been through, my tail has continued to wag, and I have showered everyone with love and affection. I am a lively and intelligent girl looking for a home with experience of Staffordshire Bull Terriers. I adore people and can get a little carried away when saying hello and will jump up for
40
attention. When I first arrived at SDR I was quite worried with a nervous disposition, but my confidence has grown massively during this time as I have been shown so much love by all the dog carers at SDR. I will need a secure garden with a minimum of 6ft fence as I am capable of jumping quite high and will look for gaps or try and make holes in wire fencing if left outside on my own, so it is important that my new owners interact and entertain me when I am outside for any periods of time. I have been dog mixed with various breeds, but I would be better off being the only dog in home so that my new owners can give me all the love and attention I deserve.
I am a very loving girl who just wants my new family to give me the time and attention I need. In the right home, I will make a wonderful, sweet and affectionate companion. Can you offer this lovely girl a loving and permanent new home? If you would like to make a monetary donation, the easy way to do this is by text message. To donate £10 text Bark10 to 70085. Thank you for your support.

GARDENING
Greenfingers… the Alan Titchmarsh column He’s a brilliant presenter, accomplished gardener, talented novelist and all-round horticultural inspiration. This month, Alan Titchmarsh talks about getting our youngsters involved in gardening projects. I started gardening when I was nine or ten. I made a little greenhouse, tidied edges, mowed the lawn and sowed seeds, which then came up. When I had that little bit of success, it emboldened me to take cuttings and do more, and it all went on from there. To be honest I was obsessed with all things nature - frogs, toads, insects… and the garden is the nearest bit of natural history to us, so I always felt comfortable there and I still do, although I’m not sure the young generation have quite the same connection with the outdoors. In recent years I’ve worked with the Royal
46
Horticultural Society in campaigns for school gardening, and we’ve had over 30,000 schools involved. Particularly at primary level if we can, literally, sow the seed when children are young, get them connected with the earth rather than disconnected and fearful, it will mean we are investing in the future custodians of the landscape. To me, it’s vitally important we pass on our joy and knowledge. When I was a boy, Percy Thrower presented a programme called Gardening Club on a Friday night – this was way before Gardener’s World. He, along with a junior
schoolteacher of mine, Harry Rhodes – who used to sell cacti at the church bazaar – were great inspirations. Indeed, my first plants came from Harry.
Before he died, he saw me building a career, and one of life’s great delights was knowing that Harry witnessed this little lad he had encouraged to garden getting on, and doing alright. It was an unusual thing for a small boy to be interested in, therefore when you see a young gardener showing a keen interest, you always want to fan the flame. I’m now doing what Percy and Mr Rhodes did. Of course as you get older, the way you use a garden changes. Just as when I was a boy it was a place of discovery and play, now it’s more a thing of art, beauty and quiet contemplation. What undoubtedly links my present self with that nineyear old version of me, is stimulation, and that has never changed in all the years I’ve spent outdoors planting this, trimming that. And that’s what’s there for the younger generation. That’s why I feel we should do our utmost to engage young people in the glory of our gardens and outside spaces. With all the other distractions they have nowadays, it feels more important than ever.

Wallingford Accessible Boat Club Your volunteers were fabulous crew and my whole family had the best time, particularly my young son! Thank you for making this possible, we really hope to be able to join you all again soon! ….. “
Getting disabled, and otherwise immobile people, out on the River Thames. If you are disabled, a wheelchair user perhaps, or just less mobile these days then perhaps you have wondered just how you can get out on the river and enjoy a boating experience – nature watching, fishing, picnicking or simply enjoying some time on the water.
Well, whilst it was nigh on impossible just a few months ago, times have changed and it is now not only possible but available free of charge (although a small donation is welcomed!) and in easy reach of anyone living in the Thames Valley or in sight of the Chilterns. The Wallingford Accessible Boat Club (WABC) is a small charity, totally volunteer
52
based, which enables disabled people to get out and about on the River Thames at Wallingford. At the heart of the operation is our Wheelyboat, WOW-one, a purpose-built flat-bottomed craft with a drop down bow which allows wheelchair users as well as the ‘walking wounded’, friends and family to get on and off the craft, safely and securely. The WABC service allows clients ( typically groups of 8 or less) to make contact with our booking team and arrange a 1-2 hour trip. Since June, we have undertaken more than a dozen voyages with over 65 passengers – and the reaction from them, without exception, has been simply amazing! We have received some great testimonials: “….. Thank you for the most wonderful afternoon today!
On a final note. From April next year we are hoping to offer a greater number of voyages and to do that we would like to recruit additional volunteer crews. We need to find riverloving people with boating experience and some spare time on their hands, with a desire to help others. Further details are available to anyone interested and full training will be available. Please contact john.jenkins@wabc.org.uk or visit our website at www.wabc.org.uk for more information on volunteering or enjoying a trip on WOW-one.

Safe, Professional Ear Care
Between them, our team have removed wax from over ten thousand ears. So let them put their experience to good use, by solving your earwax problems. WHO ARE WE AND WHAT DO WE DO? We are an Audiologist led network of earwax removal clinics. The advantage of this is that if you feel that you have an ear wax blockage, but it turns out that there isn’t any, we can also provide hearing tests and give unbiased independent advice. If wax build up is causing a problem or is uncomfortable, it may need to be removed. Microsuction ear wax removal is a gentle and safe procedure. Earwax is natural and has an important function. It should not be routinely removed
Samantha has been an audiologist for over 26 years, working both in the Private and NHS sector.
