Between them Paula and Steve talked us through the suitable plants for Winter Tubs and demonstrated the planting of some of them in a large tub. After the interval, we had a very interesting question and answer session RQ DOO DVSHFWV RI JDUGHQLQJ WR FRQFOXGH D UHDOO\ HQMR\DEOH evening.

Safety

Sparkler Safety

Fireworks in the garden can be great fun, as long as they are used safely. Each year, over half of all firework injuries are suffered by children.

Did you know that sparklers get five times hotter than cooking oil? Sparklers are not toys and should never be given to a child under five.

Always buy sparklers from a reputable shop to make sure that they conform to British Standards. This means that they should have BS 7114 written on the pack.

Did you know?

It is against the law to carry fireworks in public if you’re under 18 Fireworks must not be sold to anyone who is under 18 It is an offence to let fireworks off during night hours (11pm to 7am), except on Bonfire Night (midnight), Diwali, New Year, and Chinese New Year (1am) It is an offence under the Explosives Act 1875 to tamper with or modify fireworks.

Don’t buy sparklers from anywhere you’re not sure about, such as the back of a van or from a temporary, unlicensed market stall.

Read the instructions in daylight.

Make sure you have: • A torch • A bucket or two of water • Eye protection and gloves

community Community Autumn is definitely with us and most days has a chill in the air. Bonfire night is just around the corner which is a scary time for all pet owners.

Some dogs and cats are very freaked out by the noise, therefore please be aware of your pet’s requirements. Make sure they are in the house with a radio on and curtains closed, this is the best way I think to keep your pet calm. My cats tend to hibernate under the bed at this time of the year which isn’t a bad thing.

I always feel so sorry for horses and farm animals in local fields too.

Vets bills for the Sanctuary are getting increasingly high at the moment, lots of recently rescued dogs and cats have many ongoing medical conditions which our vets are treating to full recovery. We are then able to put them for adoption and hopefully a happy life with a forever home.

Our vets bill totalled over £50,000 last year, so we need to capitalize on all the fund raising that is in our calendar for the rest of the year.

Anyone wanting tickets for the Race Night on 25th November please call Liz 07769 154456 or Mags 07969 203206 or 01302 711330 and leave a message.

Tickets are £6 including Pie and Peas. This will be a brilliant night

Finding a forever home so please come along and support us.

The events we have planned up to the end of the year are.

10/11 Collections outside Wheatley Hall Road, M&S 25/11 Saturday Race Night Scout Head Quarters Tickhill.

Plus, we have a Doncaster Street collection Dec 2nd and the 23rd Dec, we will be outside Marks and Spencer with some of our dogs who will be looking forward to a day out and the odd cuddle.

Many thanks to everyone that has left blankets, towels and food in my garage for transfer to the Sanctuary. These are very much needed donations so thanks you.

Our Sanctuary is open 1-4 at a weekend, 2-4 weekdays and closed on a Tuesday. If anyone would like any information on any of our current residents please call 01302 711330, leave a message and someone will return your call.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Salt & Peppa Female 6 months ?

Yes ?

Yes Poss

Salt and Peppa came into care with their mum, Tia, because their owner was having to move house and was unable to take them with her. They are adorable little girls but can be quite shy with strangers. All they need is a little time and patience for their true personality to come shining through. The wait will be well worth it.

Salt and Peppa are very close so a home together is preferred. It would be a dream come true if they could all go together.

Could you offer these girls the home they deserve?

Creating a cosy guest bedroom that your guests will love Creating a cosy guest bedroom that is an enjoyable stay for your guests not only makes your visitors feel good but also for you as well by being the wonderful host and providing them with the comforts that make them feel right at home.

Here are some tips and advice on how to recreate a cosy guest bedroom that becomes a welcoming oasis for your visitors.

The Bed You wish to ensure your guests feel rested and refreshed from a good night’s sleep, therefore you need a mattress that will do the job. Often a guest bedroom tends to be a place for cast off furniture, this includes the mattress which is often forgotten. Why not try sleeping in your spare bed for a night or 2 to see how comfortable it really is!

Fabrics and soft furnishings Creating a cosy bedroom interior would not be the same without soft luxurious cushions and plush blankets to adorn the bed. Choose FXVKLRQV WKDW DUH WKLFN FKXQN\ NQLWV XOWUD À XII\ wools, or smooth cashmere along with blankets all bring texture to indulge your sense of touch.

Subtle shades When choosing a paint colour for your guest room try to keep to subtle shades such as whites, greys, earthy greens, pale blues, pastel shades.

You can always accent with a few pops of bold colour in your accessories but try to avoid vivid paint colours on the walls as these colours can over-stimulate the mind, which is not the tranquil and peaceful haven you are trying to create for your guests.

20 TICKHILL TODAY

Blinds Be sure not to neglect the treatment of the windows. Investing in a black out blind provides functionality for your guests to enjoy a lie in and not to be woken up by light pouring in through the windows! For decoration and to tie in with your dĂŠcor try adding curtains or drapes in softer fabrics as this will add a touch of luxury as well.

Lighting You can make a room feel cosy with adding side lamps to either side of the bed to bring a cosy atmosphere to the room. Not only does this bring symmetry to the room but avoids using the harsh bright light of the main light.

Storage If room allows, provide your guests with some storage. This gives them the opportunity to unpack, and hang their clothes and provides them with a sense of belonging.

Hospitality Adding those extra few personal touches will make your guests feel extra important. Fresh À RZHUV DUH D ZHOFRPLQJ WRXFK DQG OHDYH RXW a few magazines or books in case they wish to read before bed. In the bathroom, provide shower gel and a few nice bathroom products.

Tickhill Estfeld School

Bee Day at Tickhill Estfeld Each year as they enter Reception all pupils receive a free gift of a book from the BookTrust. The initiative is sponsored by the Arts Council England and its aim is to “inspire a love of reading”. We are very keen to encourage reading for pleasure and held a special launch day – “Bee Day”.

The book chosen this year was The Bumblebear by Nadia Shireen and is a story about a bear whose love of honey prompts him to enrol at Bee School.

The pupils enjoyed sharing the book and listening to the story and taking part in activities such as honey tasting, hatmaking, programming the bee-bots and learning about how bees make honey.

Our pupils had an exciting day - they certainly were very busy bees!

' R 6RPHWKLQJ 'LÎ? HUHQW Join a Brass Band Do you need a challenge or fancy a new KREE\" 7KHQ FRQVLGHU MRLQLQJ 7KXUFURIW %UDVV Band which is hoping to establish a training band for adults.

Brass bands have long been associated with the mining industry and were particularly prevalent in Yorkshire due to its long history of mining. When the pits closed the brass bands did not go away. Many are still in existence and you can become part of that musical heritage What do brass bands do? In a typical year they play at a variety of concerts including galas, garden parties, birthday parties, community concerts, Christmas celebrations and charity fund raising events. And then there is COMPETITION time. Every year many brass bands compete against each other to determine which is the best band. Bands are ranked and placed in sections depending on the result obtained.

If you have played a brass instrument in the past or have played another instrument Thurcroft Brass would love to see you. Or maybe you are a complete beginner to music. Whatever way, they will help you by JLYLQJ \RX FRQČ´ GHQFH WR SOD\ DJDLQ WUDQVIHU to brass or start from scratch.

Thurcroft Brass have a number of players in their senior band who have already done this successfully. Sheila Hanococks is one of WKRVH 6KH VDLG Č&#x160;Î&#x2013; SOD\HG WKH Čľ XWH DV D FKLOG 40 TICKHILL TODAY

and like many gave up when I left school.

I never touched a brass instrument until I decided at the age of 52 that I needed a new hobby. I was met with nothing but help and friendship and before long I was totally hooked. Anyone who has ever played in a EDQG ZLOO WHOO \RX KRZ PXFK HQMR\PHQW LV gained from playing together with others.

We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care who you are, young or old.

Just come to us and make good music in a friendly and supportive environment.â&#x20AC;?

The purpose of the training band is to prepare you for playing in the senior band.

When you are ready you will be encouraged to move into the main band.

What music do the band play? A little bit of everything. In truth, it plays whatever is required! This ranges from light classical to MD]] DQG VZLQJ PXVLF DQG WKHPHV IURP WKH VKRZV DQG Č´ OPV Why not give it a try? They have a number of loan instruments which you can borrow free of charge so you do not need an instrument.

They will only ask for a small subscription to cover costs.

community Garden View

By Rachel Leverton

National Tree Week November 25th marks the start of National Tree Week, which in turn marks the start of tree-planting season.

Considering that most of us in the UK have fairly small plots we do love our trees. The trouble is weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not always terribly good at choosing them. How many times have you driven through a housing estate and observed an enormous weeping willow or an enormous pine tree completely obscuring a front garden.

It can be tricky deciding what sort of tree to plant on a small, suburban plot but there are plenty of candidates. Generally trees up to 8-10m are considered suitable.

The best urban trees offer year-round interest.

Varieties of Acer Palmatum are rather lovely.

They are elegant trees which have attractive green or purple foliage and colour beautifully in the winter.

Why not plant a tree during this week?

Our guide has some helpful tips.

How to Plant a Tree Dig a hole at least twice the size of the root ball.

Make up a mixture of half compost and half soil from the hole. Put a few inches of this mix at the bottom of the hole.

Trees need support so drive a support stake into the hole at one edge. This needs to be done before the tree is planted or you risk damaging the roots.

Tip the tree from its container and loosen the URRWV D OLWWOH 3ODFH LW LQWR WKH KROH DQG ÂżOO LQ with the soil and compost mixture. Firm it down with your heel.

Use proper straps to secure the tree to the post. Water well!

For my money Amalanchier Lamarckii (or June Berry Tree) is about as hardworking a tree as youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll come across. During March and April it SURGXFHV D IURWK\ VKRZ RI ZKLWH Ă&#x20AC;RZHUV WKHQ in June these are replaced by attractive deep purple, and supposedly edible - though Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never tried them - fruits. Then, when Autumn arrives the tree pulls out all the stops and EXUVWV LQWR ÂżHU\ FRORXU ,I \RX RQO\ KDYH URRP for one tree then an Amelanchier wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let you down.

Another hard worker is Sorbus hupehensis var. obtusa. This tree has a pretty shape and is attractive throughout the year. In the late spring it is covered in white blossom which is followed by masses of dark pink berries. The blue-green leaves turn red in the autumn.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just my opinion of course but without at OHDVW RQH WUHH D JDUGHQ FDQ VHHP Ă&#x20AC;DW DQG D little dull. Trees provide structure and height but are also a haven for birds and insects, which in turn add colour and life.

6ZLQJLQJbLQ the Choir )RU WKH Č´ UVW FRQFHUW RI LWV VW VHDVRQ 7LFNKLOO Music Society invited the talented young players of Doncaster Youth Jazz Association (â&#x20AC;&#x153;DYJAâ&#x20AC;?) Showband to play for them. The players in question were aged between 9 and 15, and played under the benign direction of John Ellis MBE, who has played such a large part in establishing DYJA in the music scene and in the community. The venue was the Parish Church, which has hosted many concerts of choral and classical music in the past, but surely never an evening of swing, MD]] URFN EOXHV DQG /DWLQ $PHULFDQ PXVLF The regular followers of the Showband, who made up about half the large audience, REYLRXVO\ NQHZ ZKDW WR H[SHFW EXW WKH Č´ UVW timers in the audience were enthralled by WKH DELOLW\ DQG WKH FRQČ´ GHQFH RI WKH \RXQJ musicians, who showed no fear of taking solos, whether or not they were improvised.

The Church was soon transformed into a respectful version of Ronnie Scottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nightclub, and when it was over the call was for the Showband to return as soon as possible.

Dear Friends, Č&#x160;%H PHUFLIXO MXVW as your Father is merciful, and you will not be condemned.

Forgive, and you will be forgivenâ&#x20AC;? (Luke 6: 36 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 37).

The next part of the Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Prayer for the month of November is: â&#x20AC;&#x153;As we forgive those who sin against usâ&#x20AC;?.

Human beings are social beings and therefore will rub against each other in life. This can lead to friction in society. Jesus, knowing how human nature is, commends that we forgive each other.

I have heard people say many times that, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;unless s/he says sorry or repent, I will never forgive him/herâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The words of the Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prayer and the bible passage from Lukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gospel above reminds us that there is no condition placed on forgiveness. Someone once said to me, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;if you are waiting for the person who wronged you to say sorry, how about if the person is no more in the world, I mean dead. Are you waiting for the person to resurrect and say sorry to you before you forgive him/her?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The simple issue is that people move on in life but some of us continue to reel in unforgiveness for the rest of our lives. By the way, research has found that unforgiveness can lead to health issues such as depression and heart attacks.

This month is very important in the life of the church and this country. We are celebrating â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Remembranceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in many ways â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;All Saintsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Remembranceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Days. Talking of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;saintsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, depending on the Christian tradition you align yourself to, you may regard them as people who have lived before us and done good works.

On the other hand, you may come from a Christian tradition that believes that saints are people who are still DOLYH DV GHČ´QHG LQ (SKHVLDQV â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Î&#x2013; ZRQGHU LI \RX FDQ FRQVLGHU KRZ \RX Č´W LQWR WKDW GHČ´QLWLRQ LI \RX DUH XQIRUJLYLQJ I wonder if I can remind you of last monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s article.

God wants to forgive us but he also wants us to be a forgiving people. May I therefore encourage you to ask the Lord to show you anyone who has hurt you and whom you need to forgive. If the Lord shows you someone you need to forgive, you may choose to forgive the person by praying to God to help you do it. You can follow the steps of Saint Jane and gradually extend a hand of friendship.

Mind you, if we forgive each other as the Lord expects us to do, we will not think of wars in the future. The world will then be a place of peace and tranquillity.

Doncaster Ramblers do Children in Need Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be forgiven for thinking the Ramblers are all about footpaths, the great outdoors, and long-distance trails, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not. The Ramblers are all about people, and if Children in Need are about one thing itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about people.

So, our charity ramble in association with BBC &RXQWU\Č´ OH ERXJKW RI RXU PHPEHUV DQG WKHLU family and friends together for a 5 mile walk around the tracks and paths of Tickhill.

On 26th October – Tim Lynch’s talk on The Battle of the Somme was full of interesting details and helped us understand both the heroism and the horror which the battle has come to symbolise.

Newsletter Tickhill Town Council - November 2017

Tickhill Town Council regrets to announce the resignation of Mr B. Keith, one of their long term Councillors. Tickhill Town Council wishes to place on record their appreciation of his commitment and contribution over the years to council and community matters.

This month sees the turning on of the Christmas lights on the late night shopping evening. Tickhill Town Council will be judging the winner of the Best Dressed Window competition at this event with the announcement of the winner to be made later in the month.

Unfortunately there has been a spate of totally unacceptable anti social behaviour at the pavilion resulting in 14 slates being replaced on the roof. Consequently the Council have had to install CCTV in the hope of preserving the quality of life at the Recreation Ground and surrounding area.

In the meantime, if you would like to make bookings at the Pavilion would you please contact The Clerk on who is acting Pavilion Manager in the interim.

Food & Drink

Beer

created from nature •

THERE’S A BEER FOR THAT

Cosy Nights In With Beer and Food It’s November; it’s cold; it gets darker earlier and there are few things more welcome than a cosy night in.

Wholesome food, good telly to watch and, of course, the right drink - that’s where beer comes in.

Beer is your perfect partner for snug evenings at home.

Imagine you’ve cooked a steak pie; a sturdy bitter will bring out the best in it with just the right flavour intensity to match its rich, dense flavours. They’re well balanced between malt sweetness and hop bitterness and will pick out the sweetness in the meat and pastry and complement it beautifully. There’s also enough carbonation in the bottled versions to cut through the pie’s texture and refresh the palate.

70 TICKHILL TODAY

Some to look out for: Fuller’s ESB, Sharp’s Doom Bar, Adnams Southwold and Marston’s Pedigree.

If a fish pie is more to your taste, only one drink can marry perfectly with all those fishy flavours - beer.

Here you have a couple of options, both of which match the intensity of a fish pie: lager and wheat beer.

Lagers are crisp, clean and offer a bready sweetness and some subtle citrus to complement the fish. Look out for Mahou, Pravha and Five Points Pils. Wheat beers are light, spritzy and fruity so also complement the fish and refresh the mouth in between bites, but they have a creamy mouthfeel which melds well with the creaminess of the pie.

If you want something easy and hassle-free it doesn’t come much simpler than

cheese on toast. Here a pale ale makes a perfect cheesy partner. Classic English pales like Timothy Taylor’s Landlord have a subtle caramel sweetness and fruity tang from the hops. Both characteristics are going to spike some fruity sweetness in the cheese and really lift the flavour.

Staying in has never been more delicious.
