Welcome to the

Feed The Birds

March

of Blaxton

2018 edition

For the best value feed and seed in the Doncaster area.

This month we celebrate Today Publications 13th birthday!

Tickhill Today was the first magazine and during the first week of March 2005, we delivered the first issue to homes across Tickhill and nervously awaited a reaction. Thirteen may be considered unlucky by some, but I feel very lucky to have enjoyed the last 13 years continuing to distribute magazines each month in Tickhill, and then adding Rossington in 2006, Bawtry in 2007, Harworth & Bircotes in 2011, Bessacarr & Cantley in 2013 and most recently DN2. Long may they all continue.

A magazine for the expanding Plantation area of Balby is in the pipeline for 2018, so watch this space, or get in touch if you think you would like to be in that magazine!

As always, if you contact someone advertising within these pages, do tell them where you found them. Whether that be a business advertising products or services, or a group, charity or organisation promoting their meetings, activities or events. Without the advertisers and community contributors these magazines would not exist, and would not be helping our local communities to thrive.

The April issue will be delivered to you late March, just ahead of Easter. If you would like to have something included in this, please make sure details are with me by Friday 9th March. Thank you.

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

Fourteen types of seed, peanuts, suet products, dry and live mealworms.

2kg bags and full sacks available.

Prices start at £1.30 for 2kg and £13 for 25kg.

20kg sacks of Sunflower Hearts - £24.

Dried Mealworms £10 per Kilo.

2kg good quality peanuts £3.80.

Your new Vicar!

My name is Ali Earl and in April I shall be the new Vicar of Tickhill and Stainton. My husband Andy - who is a Padre in the Army working out of Preston at present – and I are really looking forward to moving to Tickhill and in a way, for me personally, it’s like coming home. Why? - I hear you ask. Well I was born and brought up in Maltby and have fond memories as a child of coming to the Military Tattoo at Tickhill Castle with my mum and dad, feeding the ducks and shopping in Taylors. My mum was also MD for Tickhill Male Voice Choir and whilst I did my curacy in Rossington I would often pop down this way.

I’ve had a varied career since attending Maltby Comprehensive School where I was heavily involved with the stage productions that they used to put on and it’s been lovely to meet up with my old form teacher Mrs Millard (whose husband Stuart is one of the Churchwardens here) who was also in these productions with me.

to Tickhill for my welcome service in April.

We recently purchased a tiny cottage in France in the Limousin and in the precious time we do have together – army life being as demanding as parish ministry – we spend time relaxing in the quiet restful surroundings of rural France. Andy likes to potter, and he is DOVR WKH &KDLUPDQ RI (OVHFDU +HULWDJH 5DLOZD\ DQG D TXDOLȴHG VWHDP HQJLQH driver. I like to paint, read and do yoga.

We are both looking forward to moving to Tickhill and to making our home and new friends here. T

After leaving 6th form went to work for Midland Bank in Rotherham and after doing a number of jobs ranging from bank cashier, ZRUNLQJ LQ D JHQWOHPHQȇV RXWČ´WWHUV SRVW RÉ?FH FOHUN FRXUW XVKHU DQG OHJDO DLG FOHUN DW D Č´UP RI VROLFLWRUV Ζ ZDV RUGDLQHG LQ

by Bishop Jack and as I’ve just mentioned served my curacy at St Michael’s, Rossington.

Coincidentally the reception after my ordination was actually held at The Three Tons in Stainton, as was our granddaughters FKULVWHQLQJ UHFHSWLRQ \HDUV DJR Ζ EHFDPH WKH 9LFDU RI WKH EHQHȴFH RI +RO\ Trinity Elsecar and St Marys Worsbrough LQ DQG KDYH EHHQ 3ROLFH &KDSODLQ for South Yorkshire Police throughout my ordained ministry and continue to be so. $QG\ DQG Ζ KDYH GDXJKWHUV (PPD and Abigail and we were married at the 0LOLWDU\ &KDSHO DW +HUHIRUG ZKHUH KH ZDV stationed at that time as Army Chaplain.

We both enjoy time spent with family – our granddaughter Amelia is such a blessing, as is time spent with friends from far and wide- many of whom will be travelling up 6

Homes

Appreciate your Bathroom Our bathrooms are one of the busiest rooms used in the home. Whether this is for showering, bathing or pampering, our bathrooms can often become tired due to the amount of use they get on a daily basis. With a small amount of time and effort you will be able to appreciate your bathroom just that little bit more and put some love back into the room.

Imagine entering your bathroom to see neatly folded towels on the hand rail, clean and clear surfaces with just a few of your beauty products by the sink. Candles on the windowsill and essential oils by the bathtub awaiting your next soak in the tub. If this image is far from the reality of how your bathroom currently looks perhaps it’s time to have a fresh start!

To appreciate your bathroom more, you need to start with the décor. It is no good if your bathroom appears dull and lifeless with tiles that have seen better days, peeling paint and sealant, and limescale build up clouding the shower door.

Start with a deep clean, there are lots of products now that can help with discoloured grout and limescale build up if these are issues in your bathroom.

of any product on the go at any time, one moisturiser, one makeup remover, one conditioner etc. Perhaps store full bottles separately and don’t bring them out until you KDYH ¿ QLVKHG WKH RQH \RX DUH FXUUHQWO\ XVLQJ Try using pretty jars to store cotton wool and hair accessories.

If you have open storage invest in storage baskets that all your items can be put into. A row of matching storage baskets will look far more chic than bottles and makeup cluttering up the sides.

Also, think about your bathroom towels and bathmats, choose to use your favourites rather than making do with mismatched towels that are donkey’s years old. It may be worth treating yourself to a new set, as nothing beats the feel of ZDUP À XII\ WRZHOV DIWHU D EDWK RU VKRZHU I hope these tips help you brighten up your bathroom and make it become a room that you want to spend time in rather than a room to avoid.

How many of us have several half-used bottles of multiple toiletries taking up room on our bathroom shelves, that we currently don’t use?

Until next month

The golden rule is to never have more than one

St Mary’s School Aliens at St Mary’s Foundation have celebrated their Space topic with an Alien day in school. All the children and adults dressed up as aliens and we had an alien picnic! We also had a visit from a planetarium so we could see space on a large scale!

Our Nursery and Reception classes thoroughly enjoyed taking part. Joseph made a cake with his mummy for the special day.

NEWS FROM THE EAST NEIGHBOURHOOD POLICE INSPECTOR Dear Readers, I begin this month’s article with a brief update on crime in and around Tickhill.

In general, the news is good with less than twenty crimes reported in Tickhill EHWZHHQ -DQXDU\ DQG )HEUXDU\ :LWKLQ WKLV Č´JXUH ZH VDZ WKUHH EXUJODULHV RI garages and one attack on a house where the car keys were stolen and the vehicle taken.

This type of incident has been on the increase over the past few months across Doncaster with people owning prestige/sports cars have EHHQ WDUJHWHG 7KH RÎ?HQGHUV KDYH EURNHQ LQWR properties to steal the car keys and take the car. Very often, we keep our car and house keys on the same key ring and lock our house doors at night but leave the keys either in the door, or very close by in clear view. This makes it easier IRU WKH RÎ?HQGHU WR ORFDWH WKH NH\V RQFH WKH\ break in. My advice is hide your keys. You may recall in my last article, I also mentioned some crime prevention methods you could consider taking to protect your shed. Garages can be protected in similar ways, and shed alarms DUH YHU\ HÎ?HFWLYH :H VDZ YHU\ IHZ FULPHV of theft from vehicles being reported over the past month but as I have written before, please don’t leave any valuables in your car.

in the past and we work in partnership with colleagues from Doncaster Council.

I am also aware that cctv cameras have now been installed at the Tithes Lane Pavilion which will help identify those people involved in any acts of anti-social behaviour. This has been an issue at the site in the past, but we are hopeful this action will help solve this.

Finally, I urge all readers to ensure you contact the police if you become the victim of a crime. I am aware that some victims have not bothered to report crimes to us in the past for a variety of reasons, but it is crucial we know about DOO WKH RÎ?HQFHV WDNLQJ SODFH LQ WKH DUHD VR we can consider an appropriate response.

We also received six complaints of anti-social behaviour over the past month, but again, WKHUH DUH QR VSHFLČ´F WUHQGV WR UHSRUW RU comment on.

Arts Review

& what’s going on - MARCH 2018 •

contains a section on the science of colour.

We tootled off to Nottingham to catch the Viking exhibition ‘Rediscover The Legend’ at the Djanogly Gallery before it closes on 4 March – (you just have time yourselves) and have to say that this show which is a ‘major show’, on tour from the British Museum and York Museums Trust was very underwhelming. I’d met a few people who had seen it and said how good it was, we shouldn’t miss it, etc. There just seemed to be not very many exhibits and rather a lot of display stands. It was a room full of screens, and to be honest the work was OK. We weren’t looking at superb craftsmanship, it was fairly straightforward silver-smithing, and why should a Viking metal worker not be able to do that?

There was one very fine iron helmet and lots of coins. No one makes anything anymore, we don’t cook, we don’t sew, we don’t make our own jewellery, but it is not enough to put a few twists of silver bar in a case and call it a ‘major show’. I hope if you went you were more thrilled than me. However, their next show which is a contemporary landscape exhibition looks interesting.

Djanogly Art Gallery Nottingham 24 March – 17 June Exhibition ‘Scaling the Sublime- art at the limits of landscape’ claims to be an exhibition which explores affinities with Romanticism in contemporary art practice and the continuing fascination of the Landscape Sublime. Well! If you don’t know what that means you will have to go and see the show! And 3 March - 6 May Rob Hart painting and printmaking exhibition, recent landscapes of the Suffolk coast www.

This is the first exhibition to show the collection from 1968 to 2018.

Peter Lavery is best known for his seductive advertising photography, but for the last 50 years he has been photographing circus performers around Britain. All shot on a plate camera, the work is an impressive collection of circus subjects.

These intimately detailed photographs expose moments of ordinariness in extraordinary lives. www.harleygallery.co.uk The Arts Society Dukeries Wednesday 7 March at 2pm Michael Howard will lecture ‘CezanneThe greatest of them All’ at St Anne’s Church Hall, Worksop S80 1NJ www.theartssociety.org/ societies/dukeries Tickhill Music Society 9 March at 7pm ‘Kosmos Ensemble’ – violin , viola and accordion – wild Gypsy fiddling, emotive Jewish and Green music and much more St Mary’s School Hall Tickhill www.tickhillmusicsociety.org Roots Music Club at the Ukrainian Centre, 2nd March – Archie Fisher + support Pete Davies 9 March – Bronwynne Brent Trio 16 March – Club night – Clamjaphry and Americarnage 23

Already hit a major stumbling EORFN ZLWK \RXU 1HZ <HDU ȴ WQHVV resolutions?

Here are 5 tips to get back on track from local physiotherapist and runner, Jenny Blizard Change your attitude to exercise. See exercise as the norm, just like going to work, that way you will instill positive associations with exercise rather than negative, and reap the rewards.

New activities take around 21 days to become a habit but it takes considerably longer, 6 months to a year for exercise to become part of being you. Accept this and work towards a goal longer term but plan little goals along the way.

Women’s Health Physiotherapy Acupuncture • Sports massage

CallHope us this nowmakes for sense, an appointment on: 01302 511755 thanks in advance. email info@blizardphysiotherapy.co.uk

www.blizardphysiotherapy.co.uk Kind regards

If you are new to exercise or had a break and starting back, there is nothing worse than being too sore for days on end as you have overdone it on your first session, or worse picked up an injury. Start small and build up.

Feel that you have no time for exercise? The No. 1 time waster now is social media, think how much exercise you could do when you put your phone down!

Make sure you look after the other bits that relate to exercise such as relaxation, sleep, hydration and good nutrition. It is surprising how these factors can either motivate or de-motivate you.

Don’t be too rigid in your plans, make room for adjustments along the way and accept that this is pretty normal for a new exercise routine. Take a day off if tired and seek help early with any niggles.

Hi Everyone,

It feels like winter is still with us, but today has been sunny so there’s a hope of spring around the corner.

We have been so busy here which is great as it means more dogs and cats are rehomed making more room for others to come in and hopefully the list of waiting dogs and cats will get a little smaller.

We have been doing lots of fund raising over the last few weeks.

Marks and Spencer have been of particular support to us in 2017/2018. We will be outside their Wheatley Hall Rd store over most of March with some of our dogs, so please come along and say hello.

The M&S team will also be coming to the Sanctuary to take part in a Charity day, dog walking and looking at those odd jobs that we always struggle to get around to doing. They are an amazing team and we will always be grateful for their support.

Race night with a Pie and Pea supper will be held in Misson Community Hall on the 24th Feb, the last one was such fun so we hope this one raises lots of money for us.

A May Ball will be held at The Crown Hotel Bawtry on the Friday the 18th of May. This event promises to be a fantastic evening a drink on arrival 3 course meal, disco, raffle and auction. There will also be a photographer to capture that special moment. Eastside Magazine will be there to cover the whole evening, so get out those beautiful evening gowns or cocktail wear and join us for this

very special evening to raise lots of money for a very worthy cause.

There are some very special dogs and cats at our sanctuary at the moment, so if you are looking for a pet to make your home complete please come along and have a chat we will be happy to point you in the right direction. Would everyone please note that we do ask for a £1 donation per person to help keep our Sanctuary open.

Name: Percy Male Sex: Age: 1 Year Came into care: Aug 2017 Good with dogs: Not Tested Good with cats: Yes Good with children: Yes I came into care with my 2 brothers but they have found their home together.

As the more confident of the trio I was chosen as the one who should be rehomed separately.

Off I went to my new home but I didn’t settle very well and I have had to come back to try again.

Ive heard people say that I can be a handfull but my carer says that its just adolescent boisterousness and that Im just like a naughty teenager who doesn’t play by the rules yet!!

So if you want a loving little guy who is full of character but with a mischievous streak Here I am !!!!!

Dear Friends, Easter is approaching very fast. By the time you are reading this letter, we may have spent a few weeks in Lent.

Over the past few weeks, I have been considering what to do in Lent. I know from experience that most of you may be like me â&#x20AC;&#x201C; wondering what to get rid of in order to be of a better shape, spiritually and physically. Interestingly, one of the things we do is fast from food and attitudes.

Talking of fasting, I chanced on a poem by William Arthur Ward with the title, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fast from, Feast onâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;? It did me a lot of good so I wonder if you can also consider it as you walk a walk of faith in Lent. It is as follows: Fast from judging others; feast on WKH &KULVW GZHOOLQJ LQ WKHP b )DVW IURP HPSKDVLV RQ GLÎ?HUHQFHV IHDVW RQ WKH XQLW\ RI OLIH b Fast from apparent darkness; feast on the reality of light.

Just to remind you of a bible passage about fasting: (]UD Č&#x201A; Č&#x160;Î&#x2013; SURFODLPHG D IDVW WKHUH beside the Ahava Canal, a fast to humble ourselves before our God and pray for wise guidance for our journey - all our people and possessionsâ&#x20AC;ŚSo we fasted and prayed about these concerns.

The Sunshine Vitamin Vitamin D supplements can be found in most pharmacies, supermarkets or health food shops.

Some groups of people are likely to have lower levels of Vitamin D in their bodies or they require a greater amount. These include pregnant or breastfeeding women, breastfed babies, adults over the age of 65 years or those that spend very little time outside.

As Dietitians we often talk about a healthy balanced diet and that if you eat a healthy diet there should be no need for a supplement.

Vitamin D is the exception to the rule. A supplement is important to keep your bones, muscles and teeth healthy and prevent nasty diseases such as Rickets in children and Osteomalacia in adults.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s March and the start of Spring, but did you know that it is actually March when your Vitamin D levels are likely to be at their lowest?

We all make Vitamin D from sunlight, it really is the Sunshine Vitamin! Sadly, here in South Yorkshire, from September to April the sun isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t strong enough for us to make Vitamin D for ourselves.

We manage to keep a small store of Vitamin D but this gets used up during those dark autumn and winter months and we rely on our food to meet our needs. There are some foods which we eat WKDW QDWXUDOO\ FRQWDLQ 9LWDPLQ ' H J RLO\ Âż VK HJJ yolk, meat, offal and milk. And other foods which DUH IRUWLÂż HG ZLWK 9LWDPLQ ' H J PDUJDULQH VRPH breakfast cereals, infant formula milk and some \RJKXUWV %XW LQ UHDOLW\ LW LV DFWXDOO\ YHU\ GLIÂż FXOW WR get enough Vitamin D from food alone.

If you wanted to talk about this on an individual basis why not make an appointment to speak to a Dietitian.

So maybe youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thinking how is this relevant to me?

Well it is recommended that all adults and children over the age of 1 year should take a daily 10 microgram supplement.

OVARIAN CANCER AWARENESS During the month of March supporters of Target Ovarian Cancer try in various ways to make women more aware of the signs and symptoms of Ovarian Cancer.

community Garden View

By Rachel Leverton

Fertile Ground This month the days get longer and the sun gets stronger...we hope!

However, March is famously temperamental and if the soil where you are is still wet and cold then it’s wise to delay planting and sowing until the temperature rises.

Potassium makes grass hardier, promotes germination and improves vegetable and fruit yields.

The proportions of each macro-nutrient will be printed on the packet. Equal amounts of each nutrient make for a good general-purpose fertiliser.

Plant nutrient reserves are low at this time of year so, as the soil warms up, it’s time to think about fertiliser.

A lawn will need a good balance of nitrogen and phosphorus to guarantee lush green grass with a healthy root system capable of withstanding dry spells. Fruiting plants need higher proportions of potassium.

Many gardeners are a bit frightened of fertiliser. All those chemical symbols on the side of the packet are rather reminiscent of school chemistry lessons. In fact, the basics are quite simple.

There are other macro-nutrients: Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen, which plants obtain freely from the air and water; and calcium, magnesium and sulphur, which should be present in any good general-purpose fertiliser.

NPK - This can be observed on the side of most fertiliser packages. The letters stand for:

Plants also need micro-nutrients: Iron, Manganese, Zinc, Boron and Molybdenum.

N - Nitrogen

Plants take all these nutrients and build everything they need from scratch, including vitamins. What plants cannot do is absorb vitamins directly from things such as pet food, milk or so-called fertilisers which contain vitamins, proteins and fats.

P - Phosphorous K - Potassium Together these are known as the macronutrients and each of them has its own use.

Nitrogen primarily feeds the leafy above-theground parts of the plants.

So, don’t be intimidated by fertiliser. Decide what your plants need then read the label. It’s easy as ABC..or rather NPK!

Phosphorous promotes strong roots.

Local History Society

Tickhill and District

The first meeting of 2018 was one of the most emotional talks we have ever had. Tim Mulroy from Rotherham kept us spellbound with his story of how Nicholas Winton organised the transporting and rehoming of six hundred and sixty nine mainly Jewish children from Nazi occupation just before the outbreak of World War Two, this became known as Czech Kinder Transport. To achieve this he raised funds, forged passports, got the British Government on side and arranged the children’s journeys from Czechoslovakia, where they left their families and travelled by train to the Hook of Holland and across to Britain, unable to speak a word of English.

66 TICKHILL TODAY

After the war his efforts were recognised with a knighthood and a surprise appearance on Esther Rantzen’s ‘That’s Life’ where he met many of the children whose lives he had saved, now adults in their 60s. Sir Nicholas lived to be 106 years old, a good innings for a wonderful man.

The March meeting on Thursday 15th, sees a return of Janet Stain one of our funniest speakers, who will give a talk on ‘Ration Book Fashion.’

Visitors are always welcome. Methodist School Room, 7.30pm.

YOUR COUNCILLORS

Newsletter Tickhill Town Council - March 2018

Tickhill Town Council regrets to announce the forthcoming retirement of their present Clerk. After some seven years of exemplary service to our Community Margaret CanningsClough has decided to stand down as Clerk and will have a phased retirement period from May to November 2018. However, thereafter she will be staying on as the Responsible Financial Officer on very much reduced hours.

By doing this Margaret will be able to offer support and cover for the newly appointed Clerk, for example, at holiday and sickness times.

The position of Clerk Designate has been published in the magazine this month. Application forms and a job description are available from the retiring Clerk.

Meanwhile if you wish to make bookings for the pavilion/ tennis please contact either the Clerk on 07591175630 or Andrea on 07851269686.

March sees the end of the financial year, with newly appointed external auditors PKF Littlejohn, the Clerk having attended a webinar to be introduced to them. The format is very much the same as previous years, just a little more detailed.

This time of year, is always busy for the Clerk so please be a little patient if the phone is not picked up immediately or e-mails answered quickly.

Residents are requested to also make complaints about for example pavements and road surfaces to DMBC directly by telephoning 736000 or by emailing DMBC: customer.services@doncaster.gov. uk or by using the mydoncaster app either on online or by using 70 TICKHILL TODAY

your smart phone. This should be the first point of contact. If this is not successful then please contact Tickhill Town Council by e mailing tickhillcouncil@gmail.com or sending a letter to the Clerk who will pass on your complaint. Contact details are at the side of this article. If Tickhill Town Council too has no satisfactory response, the next step is to take this to your Ward Councillor.

Mentions of spring seem a little premature at the time of writing this newsletter – but everyone lives in hope! Nevertheless, the initial signs are evident in the flower beds and lawns and once again Tickhill Council will be supporting the Tickhill in Bloom group to provide their superb displays on the roadside approaches into the town and at the Buttercross. Orders have been placed for this year’s summer plants which will be planted out at the end of May. Before then Tickhill should reap the full benefit from the beds of winter plants. Thanks go to all the volunteers who raise money to purchase the plants; then plant them out and maintain the beds throughout the year.

Could residents please make sure that hedges are cut back before the onset of the nesting season
