MARKET Catch as Catch Can or The Great Railway Mizzle

By Sidney Gilliat

Major Robarts’ Great Peterswell and Welsh Rail Road or his rival’s Allminster and Aberystwyth Co. Pursuing an almost identical route.

S

idney Gilliat lived in the Pewsey Vale from 1936 until his death in 1994. His many films included at least two involving trains: The Lady Vanishes and Night Train to Munich.

Also profiled are the Major’s unfortunately honest son, the dour surveyor Macintyre Callendar and Nutcombe’s servile acolyte Kenny. The Major’s romantic dalliance with superbly vulgar Dorinda is always on the elbow of chance.

Terence Brady, writer and actor, edited the book after Gilliat’s death and is entirely responsible for its publication as an E book Catch as Catch Can is available here and in the US as a digital book from: www.amazon.co.uk at £1.91 – download kindle books

The building of the Railways in the 19th Century entirely changed the face of Europe, but nowhere more so than in England. This book perfectly characterises the chaos associated with its beginning. Astonishingly witty, meticulously researched it details the wildly comic and constantly changing fortunes of the hero, and the villainy of the opposition, mixing the insanity of the period with penetrating observations on greed, profiteering and sexual ambition. All combine to illuminate a fascinating study of the varied characters involved in the proposed construction of

The climax of the story is the epic dash to the Board of Trade by both parties. This provides a cliff hanging sequence before the astonishing finale.

October in the Garden

ctober brings a fantastic display for those gardens that have plants that give Autumn foliage. You really notice the change in temperature and the shorter days which makes the sunny days even more important It is a great time to visit gardens that have Autumn colour such as Westonbirt Arboretum in Gloucestershire. Neighbours of mine regularly visit the Eastern seaboard in the USA where the colours are spectacular.

Things to do: Rake up fallen leaves and either place them on the compost or pile them up to make leaf mould.

Dig over empty beds incorporate as much organic matter as possible to improve the structure of the soil.

Finish planting evergreen shrubs Give conifer hedges a last trim for the winter sets in.

Plants new climbers and perennials.

Lift and store dahlias, gladioli and summer flowering bulbs.

Cut down the dying tops of perennial vegetables.

Insulate the greenhouse if you don’t have a heater get one if you do have check that its in working order. Insulate the inside of your greenhouse with bubble polythene or any other insulating material that lets light through.

It is probably your last chance to sow grass seed.

Pick up the last of your apples and pears before they get damaged.

Only store fruit that is not damaged or diseased Lift and store potatoes and carrots in a dry and darkish cool place.

You should start to prepare the ground for planting bare rooted stock for next month.

Sow sweet peas for next year under cover.

It is best to do all the jobs in the garden sooner rather than later as with the shortening days you will only have a limited time to get things done Plant trees at this time of the year while the soil is warm for the

14 The MarketPlace October 2011

roots to take hold.

Plant garlic before the weather gets to cold.

There is probably only one or two cuts of the lawn left unless your right down south.

Secure any climbers or any other plants that are vulnerable to the winds of Autumn.

Plant container grown climbers. Plant up new herbaceous perennials and lift and divide overgrown and plant.

Lift and store dahlia tubers.

Put netting over your ponds to prevent debris from falling in and if you are lucky enough the same goes to the swimming pool.

Lift and store tender summer - flowering bulbs.

Good time now to go to your garden centre and buy plants that give a good winter colour.

It is a good time to tidy up that pond before the water gets too cold.

With an established lawn rake out thatch, aerate and top – dress.

Finish planting Autumn onion sets.

Sow broad beans but cover them with cloches in colder parts of the country.

Lift parsley and mint and pot to put on the window sill.

Water the plants in the greenhouse and indoor plants less.

Constantly remove any yellow leaves from and around plants as this encourages disease and pests.

In the greenhouse grow radishes, mustard and cress for winter salad either in pots or recycle those tomato grow bags.
