Welcome to the

See and feel the quality for yourself

February 2019 edition

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.�

Leo Buscaglia

As we enter February – the month of love, perhaps we should remember that love has many forms. In the quote above, Leo Buscaglia speaks of many ways of showing that you care, and that as a society we care about all of those around us. Random acts of kindness, however small, have the power to at the very least put a small smile on someone’s face. So even if you don’t have a special someone in February perhaps you could have a go at extending some love.

As always, we welcome some new advertisers this month as well as lots of long-standing ones who continue to advertise within our pages as a great way of getting customers. If you contact any this month don’t forget to tell them where you found them.

The March issue will be delivered to you late February. If you would like to have something included in this, please make sure details are with me by Friday 8th February. We will be celebrating our 14th Birthday in March. It is hard to believe that so many years have passed since the ďŹ rst ‘Today’ magazine was (nervously) produced.

Enjoy February and I will be back in a months’ time with your March magazine.

Best wishes,

Paula x

Tickhill & District Lions Huge thank you for all your support during 2018

The Santa Float We are never too old for Santa. He brings a smile to all our faces, young and the ‘not so young’. This year he, his volunteer drivers and collectors had to endure possibly the worst rain storm (Saturday 15th) that any of us can remember. Yet credit to them and to you for your support throughout the Christmas period and especially that horrid night.

A huge thank you also to Chris Gravill of Marshalls Volkswagen, Scunthorpe for the loan of the vehicle and to Ian Laycock of ProAktive Ltd for helping with the risk insurance.

Now our thoughts turn to 2019. We look forward to supporting people and community groups across Bawtry, Bircotes, Harworth, Loversall, Rossington, Tickhill and Wadworth.

If you would like to get involved or if you think we may be able to help you or a community project please get in touch.

LIFESTYLE

Take time to Re-energise & Evaluate

Back when I was 18 (way back!) I worked as an apprentice at a local manufacturing company. It was my first real taste of employment and what I found most interesting was the many different types of people working there.

One man in particular stood out with his unusual habit.

He’d work 11 months straight, from January to November and then use up his entire year’s holiday allowance to take the whole of December off.

Now the last week or two in November he’d bounce around the yard, smile on his face and a spring in his step.

But… The other fifty weeks of the year he was utterly miserable!

missing his annual big break and struggled on.

His lack of energy and negative demeanour meant he was overlooked for any and all promotion opportunities, every year was a battle and he couldn’t muster the enthusiasm to reach any real goals in his life.

My question to you is what do you have in your diary to look forward to?

I recommend at least once every 12 weeks have something substantial that allows you to re-energise, evaluate the last 3 months and look forward to something you want to achieve in the next 3 months.

My Wife, daughter and I love to travel, so every 3 months we have a holiday scheduled in.

No break to look forward to and growing more and more tired due to a lack of any breaks or real rest as the year dragged on.

Now of course before building a business we couldn’t afford to do this and your date in the diary doesn’t have to be something expensive.

We all suggested he split up his year like the rest of us but he couldn’t bear the thought of

My first ever goal was to not work a weekend and instead go for a family walk.

12

Scheduling a get together with friends you wished you spent more time with and having a fantastic catch-up…

Seeing a music artist that you love live…

Have a think and schedule something in right now.

You’ll be amazed how much more you can accomplish when you have a sprint and rest mentality as opposed to a long drawn out struggle.

Never too far away from a great experience and always something on the horizon to hit the right spot.

Give it a try!

Catch up next time.

To Your Success!

COMMUNITY It is with the greatest sadness that we have to share this news with you. Sadly, we have lost little Alice who passed away on New Year’s Day. She collapsed and was rushed to the Vets where it was decided to allow her to sleep with dignity and no longer in pain. She knew she was safe and she knew that she was loved. Not only by her fosterers but also by the many people whose hearts she has touched since her rescue from that awful roadside. Alice was a fighter but this was one battle too many for her. Sleep tight little lady. So sorry that we were too late to save you. Thank you so much to everyone who gave so generously to help her. It’s reassuring to know that she was warm, fed and had appropriate veterinary care during her last 8 weeks. Your overwhelming generosity enabled us to be there for her when she needed help the most. We would like to create a legacy in her memory - Alice’s Legacy - in order that we can be there for the next poor dog that needs our help.

The surplus monies donated for Alice will be kept in a fund for this purpose. Of course, anyone wishing for their donation to be returned, please call the office on 01302 711330 and we can arrange this. We hope that you will agree that it would be wonderful if we could rescue another little dog from danger in memory of Alice. We’re sure that Alice would want another dog to benefit from the forever home that she very nearly had.

She was so close.

Forever in our memories - Alice xx Moving on to a lighter note, we received over the Christmas period a super donation from the Hagan Group in Castleton of £1000 which will be well spent over the winter months.

We struggle in the winter months the amount of extra care needed when the weather takes a turn for the worst is often more than people realise. We rely heavily on donations to help us cope with heating bills and veterinary bills this time of year comes with its own problems. Even most of us as we get older struggle in the cold and it is no different for our dogs, this is why nice warm blankets and radiators are so important.

We have received so many fantastic donations of food over the New Year period we won’t need to buy food for the next 6 months, so that is a huge bonus.

Big thank you to Kay from Tickhill for a lovely bag of super goodies, also to everyone that has left blankets and towels over the Christmas and New Year period. Your gifts and donations are so appreciated, thank you for your generosity.

We have had to alter the date of our spectacular Mayflower Ball, it will now be on the 17th May NOT the 24thMay, we hope you are able to join us for this brilliant event at The Crown hotel Bawtry. photographers will be there to capture the moment.

If you need to contact us please call 01302 711330

Daisy Female 5 Years Oct 2018 Yes No Yes

My previous mum and dad decided that they could no longer live together, The house was sold My dad was starting a new job where he worked away tomorrow and couldn’t take me, Where was I to go ?????

There was nowhere else except for Mayflower to do a shuffle round and help me. It was a tight squeeze and a ‘double-up’ for a couple of kitties but a pen was found for me.

I wasn’t very happy about the situation that I was in and I’m afraid that I was a grumpy girl for a while but now I’ve settled in and realised that it’s not too bad.

All I want is a new home, perhaps with a nice secure garden, as I’ve been used to going outside, and a family to love me again.

Not much to ask for is it?

In the meantime I’ll just sit here and wait Please don’t make me wait too long.

Rosie Female 2 Years Oct 2018 Possibly Some Yes

My owner is very ill and has had to go into hospital for a long time. Although she loved me very much she had no choice but to find me a new home and asked Mayflower for help.

It was a sad day when we had to part and we both cried.

I miss my home and my Mum very much but I’m starting to settle in here now.

I have previously been mainly a housecat but my mum used to allow me into the garden so I could help her hang the washing or weed the plant pots. I always used to dash back in though as soon as she had finished. Therefore, I may like to explore a secure garden in my new home once I’m settled.

All I want is my old life back but that’s not possible so I shall sit here and wait for a new family to come along who will love me just as much as my previous Mum did.

Please don’t make me wait too long.

Arts Review

& what’s going on - FEBRUARY 2019 •

in the Committing and Solving of Crime in the works of Agatha Christie Art at the Deli this month ROGER POWELL fills the walls at Scicluna Deli in Doncaster www. artatthedeli.com

Kilnsey Crag • Connections Exhibition Recent changes in fire regulations have meant that at Doncaster Museum & Art Gallery there is now limited use of the first floor galleries unless adaptations are put in place which will cost 10s of thousands of pounds. The museum is taking a practical approach by converting the spaces concerned into safe and useful areas in advance of decanting to the new build just at the top of the street. However, life drawing is no longer running and the popular Art History lectures have moved to The Little Theatre.

Doncaster Museum and Art Gallery Open Wed to Sunday. Exhibition: until 7 April ‘CONNECTIONS’. An exhibition drawn from the collection of Heritage Doncaster finding fascinating connections between a diverse range of artworks.

What connects a portrait of ‘Mundig’, the winner of the 1835 St Leger, a dog called ‘Rover’, and a collection of Wedgewood pottery?

‘Connections’ takes as its starting point the first work to enter the art collection at Doncaster, Sir Frank Lockwood’s ‘A Moment of Triumph’, and through a series of links, some obvious, some surprising, and some downright stupid, (their word not mine) makes connections between around 70 artworks, eventually coming full circle back to the beginning. The exhibition celebrates the random nature of the art collection at Doncaster Museum, which has grown over the years through a mixture of purchases, donations and bequests, and now numbers around 2,000 artworks.

Art History Lecture: by Rachel HollandHargreaves, now at the Doncaster’s Little Theatre, King Street (off East Laith Gate). February 22nd 10.30am – 12 GEORGIA O’KEEFFE A look at the work of Georgia Totto O’Keeffe, the American artist best-known for her paintings of enlarged flowers, New York skyscrapers, and New Mexico landscapes. O’Keeffe has been recognized as the “Mother of American modernism”.

IN THE GARDEN

¢. ,#(! ¢( &&# -

STARTING YOUR SEEDS When the weather is colder and your hands are itching to get gardening again, starting your seeds indoors is the perfect way to combine comfortable potting with practical growing.

Starting your vegetable seeds indoors isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for those of us who are lazy or fair-weather gardeners. If you live in the Northern Hemisphere there are some crops which rely on being cared for indoors before they are subjected to the outdoors.

Tomatoes, peppers, melons, lettuce, onions, peas, winter squash and cabbage are great options to get started off from seed. Choose your variety from a local garden centre and store in a cool, dry place (my grandad used to use an old biscuit tin for this) and accumulate some suitable containers for each seed.

Egg boxes, yoghurt cartons, or any waxed cardboard can be turned into fabulous little receptacles for a seed. Just make sure that you pop a drainage hole into the bottom of each one. You may already have seed trays which are ready made for the purpose but you need to make sure you have somewhere to put them RIWHQWLPHV KRPH PDGH YHUVLRQV DUH VPDOOHU DQG FDQ Âż W in little corners or windowsills a little better.

When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve chosen the best container for your seeds, cover a table in some newspaper to catch any mess, DQG Âż OO HDFK OLWWOH KROH ZLWK D VHHG VWDUWLQJ PL[ 7KHVH DUH Âż QH JUDLQHG DQG VKRXOGQÂśW EH SDFNHG KDUG LQWR the container because the seedling needs to be able WR SXVK WKURXJK LW ZLWKRXW GLIÂż FXOW\ 7KH VRLO EDJV FDQ be purchased from most garden centres but keep an H\H RXW IRU WKH RQHV ZKLFK DUH GHVLJQHG VSHFLÂż FDOO\ for seeds rather than general potting. A tablespoon JHQHUDOO\ ZRUNV TXLWH ZHOO WR Âż OO XS WKH FRQWDLQHUV ZLWK the soil and with a cup of tea this can normally provide for quite a gentle afternoons activity.

2QFH \RXÂśYH Âż OOHG WKH FRQWDLQHUV ZLWK WKH VRLO RI FKRLFH youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want to add the seeds. Check the instructions on the packet but generally youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be putting one seed into each egg-sized container.

Cover the containers with plastic (for ready-made seed WUD\V \RXÂśOO JHQHUDOO\ Âż QG WKHVH FRPH ZLWK OLGV DQG WKHQ Âż QG D ZDUP VSRW WR DOORZ WKH VHHGV WR JHUPLQDWH 7KH soil itself needs to reach the right temperature before most seeds will start to germinate so bear this in mind if you drop the heat in your house during the night over colder spells. You may need to use an airing cupboard with a water tank which tend to retain the heat a little better than a windowsill during the night time. Another good option is the top of a refrigerator.

Keep an eye on the seeds and once they have

sprouted, remove the plastic to allow the air to start circulating. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remove the lid you may risk moisture building up around the seedling and cause damping-off.

If your seeds are not on a windowsill youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to transfer them to a place where they can get a lot of natural light for as long as possible during the day.

This will help the plants grow to their optimum size - tomatoes have a tendency to go leggy if they are planted too early or donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get enough light.

Now if you got rather enthused and have more containers than you know what to do with, make sure you rotate the containers in the space you have available so that they each get as much light as SRVVLEOH $ Ă&#x20AC; XRUHVFHQW OLJKW FDQ DOVR KHOS LI WKH\ DUH positioned about 4 inches above the seedlings. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to be able to adjust the height of the lights as the seedlings grow.

In order to water the seedlings and keep the soil moist, a spray bottle is perfect so that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overdo the watering or damage the delicate plants. Sit the containers on layers of newspaper to catch any drips.

You can control the speed of growth with the use of fertiliser - either increase the quantity if you want to speed up the growth (for example, if the warm weather has come in earlier than expected) or simply decrease it to slow the growth down.

Keep an eye on the size of the seedlings so that they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t crowd each other. You can either gently lift a seedling out of its pot with a little spoon, and move it to another planting hole, or simply snip off the weaker plant to give more growing space to the others.

Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re happy that the seedlings are ready to plant outside, you need to prepare them for the move by giving them a taster of the weather for an hour a day IRU D FRXSOH RI ZHHNV EHIRUH WKH RIÂż FLDO SODQWLQJ -XVW make sure to leave them in a sheltered spot otherwise your hard work may go to waste if you miss a sudden downpour or storm!

Bawtry Town Council - February 2019 Market Hill A new notice board will shortly be installed on Market Hill which will display Town Council notices together with local organisation information. Any community organisations, that would like to use the board to promote events or provide information to residents about their activities, should contact the Clerk to the Council for access.

Council members are currently considering the design of the car park and have recently reviewed an estimate for a new layout which will bring the parking provision up to modern parking standards. Members will consider how the changes should be funded over the next couple of years at the finance meeting on the 29th January.

Update from Councillors Rachael Blake and Mick Cooper

COMMUNITY

Your DMBC Councillors Next Litter pick – 10am – 2 February at Tickhill Road Layby A busy start to the year and we hope this update continues to be useful informing you about the work ZH DUH LQYROYHG LQ IRU %DZWU\ DQG $XVWHU¿ HOG DQG DOVR about Doncaster developments.

PACT meetings in Bawtry Many residents contact me about their concerns about crime and anti-social behaviour and I always send this information onto the police without disclosing details of the resident. There are concerns that Bawtry is not getting the attention from the police that is required and the PACT sessions organised by SY police are an excellent opportunity for all residents to meet with the Police and report any concerns. The next session is 28th February at 2pm at Bawtry Community Library A reminder about the Community Conversation at Bawtry Community Library Every Monday from 1-3 at Bawtry Community Library, Doncaster Council staff will be available to meet with residents to provide information about how to stay independent, improve well-being, receive information about physical and mental health, volunteer opportunities and lots more. This is a new approach that Doncaster Council Adult Services is taking to enable people to stay as independent as they want to be. No appointment is necessary – please do drop in. There is lots of support available so please don’t struggle on your own, or if you are caring for someone there is support and services available and attending the Community Conversation is a good place to start.

be an exception to this which is due to visiting cars and various activity that is taking place. We do despair that a small minority have such disregard for the area and regardless of the number of bins, some people will still litter.

I have asked DMBC Street scene team to clear the litter on the non-footpath side of Doncaster/Great North Road to improve this area as well. Also we noticed some dumped rubbish and a resident told us about dumped rubbish that he had seen and both were reported to DMBC for clearing.

Get Doncaster Moving If you are wanting to do more exercise in 2019, Doncaster has a great website to help you. There is something for everyone, whatever your level of ability.

The website is https://getdoncastermoving.org/newsand-events On the events page are a list of walks and the next one is Sunday the 27th of January 2019 10:00am. Meeting at the Keepmoat Stadium Statue for a leisurely 1 ½ mile walk to launch Get Doncaster Walking 2019. Also involved will be Support Dogs UK, Doncaster Ramblers, and our friendly Walking for Health Volunteers. It is Wheelchair accessible; Pushchair friendly; Suitable for all ages and abilities; dogs welcome on a lead.

Winter advice The NHS in Doncaster have put together a useful advice pack. These packs provide a variety of information of services across Doncaster for over the Christmas and New Year period, and throughout the rest of the winter period that may be useful to you.

The Pack for the public can be found at: http://www. doncasterccg.nhs.uk/winter-public-information-pack/

Quick round up of ongoing issues

Future Surgeries

Airport concerns – this isn’t affecting all residents but for those who are affected, a meeting is going to be held in early February. Residents who have contacted me will be sent details of the meeting

Rachael will be at the next Library coffee morning on 8 February from 10am – 12pm so do pop in for a chat.

Hedges opposite the library – these have been cut back by DMBC so it should make it easier for residents to walk on the path, particularly those with pushchairs or mobility scooters

Litter pick - We had another successful litter pick cleaning up Doncaster and Great North Road as well as Station Road and around the cemetery area. Thank you to all the volunteers who give up a couple of hours a month for this litter pick and to those residents who I know are picking up litter throughout the week.

This was the 2nd time we have covered these areas and we do now feel we are getting on top of the old litter and we aren’t seeing as much new litter being dropped – unfortunately Tickhill Road layby seems to

Bawtry Residents Group At the recent Bawtry Town council monthly meeting in December, it was with regret that Cllr A Claypole Chair to the council accepted the resignation of Cllr S Womack. We at the BRG would like to thank Steve for his work on behalf of the community and retailer’s alike.

Boxing day morning. Again the host to the event was Mr Craig Dowie of the Crown Hotel.

The BRG would like thank Peter Bentley who contributed to the setting up of the Bawtry Neighbourhood watch scheme who has now moved to Lincolnshire.

Mr J Cooke has agreed to take over the Neighbourhood watch co-ordinators role and build on the good work started by Peter.

After one-year absence the Rufford and Grove Hunt returned to Bawtry, the hunt was well supported by both residents and visitors with in excess of 2,000 people turning out to view this colourful spectacle on

One of our residents Mrs Ann Cartwright is a member of Doncaster Street Hub which is a group who help feed the homeless and vulnerable of Doncaster recently collected 80 portions of fish cake, sausages and chips prepared and cooked

by Tez Antoniou of Bawtry Fish and Chip Shop. This was made possible by donations from his customers over the past 2 months. As Tez said himself “We never know what’s around the corner and we should all do more to help out where we can”
