Editor’s Letter

BUDLEIGH DIARY MAY & JUNE 2015

Dear reader, what can I say - it’s 20 years since the Diary first came through your door and it’s still going. Phew - I’m more amazed than anything that I’ve stayed the course, I seem to have passed the mid-lifecrisis without a hitch. Running a magazine is an odd thing, the year is punctuated by magazine issues and I can say that the years literally fly by as you work to each deadline.

The Sidmouth and Budleigh Diary magazines were started in 1995 - also the year I got married, so for me it was a fairly busy and significant year all round.

Oxfordshire and then Lincolnshire before moving back to Devon with his wife Angela and buying Higher Barnes in 1982 to start the pottery where Vaughan helped many children to make their first pot. He also served as Tree Warden for Ottery - driving past Knightstone Corner towards Ottery St Mary, someone has kindly tied yellow ribbons on the roadside oaks that Vaughan had planted.

I met Vaughan about 5 years ago whilst delivering our Devonshire magazine to the pottery. He was a thoroughly friendly, likeable chap, I’m sure he’ll be missed by many.

What’s I find quite amazing is how we still have five businesses with us since the very first issue of each magazine - and they’ve been with us for each and every one of the 20 years!

We take a look at these solid local businesses further on in the magazine - they also must be doing something right to be here 20 years later.

Over the coming issues we’ll be looking back at some of the content from early Diary magazines and one of the long-term projects we have lined up here is to catalogue much of our content, particularly where it has a local historical value. This will be added to the new website that we’re starting work on shortly. (Incidentally, there’ll be dedicated and detailed What’s On information for both communities fed via our EastDevonHub website.

Sad news recently, Vaughan Glanville from Ark Pottery at Wiggaton has passed away after a battle with cancer.

Born in Ottery, he taught art in

Here’s to the next 20 years!

St Peters Church - the centre of the community St Peter’s Church has a long history of social care and love, which is what the Christian faith is all about. Throughout the 1930s for example, the church provided special classes for the young people of the town.

As is the case with most churches, funds are needed for ongoing repairs - we really must ensure these treasured community buildings are maintained for future generations - Jon Ingles.

Budleigh People

My Story - Sarka Andersonova

It’s gorgeous in Budleigh I met Sarka outside St Peter’s school in Budleigh, where she owns and manages Carousel Childcare.

She explained how she was not born and bred in Budleigh Salterton, but this gorgeous seaside town and its friendly community has grown on her year after year since 2011, when she took over Carousel Childcare.

“When I was a little girl I wanted to be a nursery teacher, however in the Czech Republic (former Czechoslovakia) you needed to pass examinations at the end of Year 8 in order to progress to a secondary school of your choice. Mine was Pedagogy School but I could not do it because I did not play any instruments, so I decided to become an Accountant by entering Economy School.

“I graduated in 1993 and worked for a few years within the field but as the borders opened I left for England

MAY & JUNE 15

BUDLEIGH DIARY

to learn English as well as become an au-pair. I remember getting £30 per week pocket money.

“I kept my job open in the CZ but 19 years on I am still here. I am married to an English man with whom I have three children and currently I am advancing my professional development by studying a Degree in Early Years with the Plymouth University.

“I like animals, I have two miniature pinschers and I love travelling and getting to know new places!”

As part of Carousel Childcare, Sarka employes six Early Years practitioners, and they do a wide range of activities with the children there.

In addition, Sarka tells me they are proud to be supporting Budleigh in Business and Budleigh in Bloom.

By Ted Gosling, West Country Author and Freeman of Seaton

Alleged poaching on the River Axe

Looking downstream - River Axe

I

n June 1954, sixty-eight year old Miss Maud Elizabeth Sanders Stephens of Stedcombe Manor in Axmouth, relying on the word of an English Kind who died nearly 900 years ago, challenged the legality of the Magna Carta and won. Magna Carta signed at Runnemede by King John in 1215 says that any Englishman can fish in tidal waters, even the Crown cannot give the sole fishing rights to anyone.

In the Chancery Division, the case of the legal limit to fishing in the mouth of the River Axe, 'Stephens vs Snell and others' was before My Justice Vaisey.

His Lordship gave judgement for the plaintiff Miss Maud Sanders Stephens against four Seaton fishermen who were fishing at the mouth of the River Axe with a boat and some nets for salmon.

The River Axe in 2013

He declared that her fishery in the waters of the River Axe extended seaward as far as the mean low watermark, although that fluctuated from time to time.

In a former action against a Seaton fisherman in 1939 it was proved and accepted that the fishery was granted to a certain Abbey in Normandy in 1100 before the date of Magna Carta and also Stedcombe Manor was given the 'sole right and several fishery' by King Henry I died who died 1135 and the right was given before Magna Carta.

In this 1954 action it was not in dispute that she was the owner of the manor and fishery in fee simple, it was held in the 1939 action that the limits of the fi shery were determined by

MAY & JUNE 15

the bounds of the manor of Axmouth which belonged to the plaintiff, Miss Stephens had brought an action alleging trespass against four Seaton fi shermen and they gave undertaking not to trespass again. Counsel said the salmon were running at this time of year and unless the injunctions were made effective fish going up stream to spawn were being caught.

Miss Stephens said "My family took the manor 60 years ago but the fishing rights are not with any particular family, they are vested in the manor itself, as long as I am here I intend to look after the river. I don't fish myself but a lot of people pay to fish and get quite good salmon."

Activities for families and children involve a monthly family service, and monthly ʻMessy Church’ James McAdam, funded jointly by St Peters Church and the Diocese, works in all three local church schools, supporting the children and teachers in their spiritual growth. The clergy all play their part in the schools, teaching and taking assemblies.

Church is not ultimately about the buildings, although we are very blessed that previous generations have provided them for us, but about a community of people who are here to be God’s hands and feet, his eyes and ears here on earth. We are of course a community of flawed people, but we try our very best to know and love each other and to reach out our hands in friendship to those in need. Something that I hope and pray will continue for many years to come. Why not come along The Reverend Anne Charlton

and join us?

What makes Budleigh a really great place to live in is the community spirit which still survives in force, even in this 21st century. There’s such a myriad of organisations across the Lower Otter Valley community, busy with all sorts of activities from recreation to charitable. - Editor.

Cec Hardy’s lighthearted take on life blue? Why do they even make pens with blue ink anyway when many forms insist on black? Who actually chooses blue ink?

But let’s return to casting clouts or not. My dedicated research has revealed that in this case the word ‘clout’ refers to an article of clothing rather than the sharp blow some folk might be tempted to inflict upon their computer.

Clout Casting Time?

by Cec Hardy

‘Ne’er cast a clout till May be out’ is the well known saying I always bear in mind at this time of year.

Many people of a certain age still swear by this old English adage but it has certain flaws. Some claim it refers to the month itself and others to some sort of hawthorn bush which flowers in late April or early May. So how are you expected to know when to commence clout casting? Does it depend upon whether you live in Devon or just south of Hadrian's Wall? Has global warming made the whole idea redundant? What is a clout anyway?

These are the sort of questions I often ask myself. Sometimes I also ask Wife Christine in a rhetorical sort of fashion, at which point she generally verbally or physically throws something. I point out that we’d still be living like cavepersons if some of us weren’t curious. She maintains I look the part.

The weather has always puzzled me.

So have a multitude of other things.

Why is it that I always buy ballpoint pens with black ink yet every time I pick up a pen the writing comes out

MAY & JUNE 15

How can you decide when it’s safe to divest? January and February are obviously out of the question but some regard 1st March as the onset of spring. Much too early in my book though I might be prepared to consider dispensing with gloves and/ or scarf which possibly don’t qualify as clouts but are classed as optional extras. Three weeks later comes the spring equinox closely followed by British Summer Time, often the cue for torrential rain, gales, sleet and/or snow and quite possibly hailstones the size of cricket balls and for Wife Christine to have difficulty getting up in the morning when the clocks go forward. She blames jet lag.

These days you can’t rely upon the animal kingdom for guidance since birds are said to be nesting earlier, flowers bloom all year round and squirrels don’t bother hibernating anymore. So I usually decide it’s spring when I no longer discover fresh mouse droppings in the garage.

I do think 2nd February is a tad too early to even contemplate spring but that’s the date when Groundhog Day is celebrated in the USA. The largest such event takes place in Pennsylvania, which I believe is right up in the

northeast corner. From my limited knowledge I’d hazard a guess that winters there are much colder than ours so I’m surprised that any self respecting groundhog would venture from its warm burrow, but apparently it does. If it’s cloudy when it comes out then it’s supposed to indicate an early spring but if the sun’s out and it sees its shadow it will quickly return home and there will be another six weeks of winter weather. Confused? Me too.

Unfortunately the groundhog seems to be one of the few species that don’t frequent our garden. This year, however, I had a stroke of luck. As I mentioned in the last issue the gerbil was hibernating in the loud end of WC's saxophone. As she’s had the dreaded lurgi she has not been tooting on the thing for quite some time so I decided to set up a gerbil detection camera to record its emergence.

Towards the end of March her coughing and spluttering were abating and I feared she might soon pick up the instrument again. Urgent measures were called for so I carefully carried the instrument into the garden and placed a bowl of pungent smelling Gerbychunks, its favourite, just outside the noise exit. I can report that the drowsy creature staggered forth blinking in the sunlight on the morning of April 1st. Which meant we could enjoy six more weeks of winter weather. Spooky or what?

I’m not superstitious but I didn’t want to risk the gerbil being correct. I shall not be casting anything before 14th May. The six weeks should expire on the 13th but that would be pushing my luck. And I’m certainly not risking a haircut before June be out. - Cec

Our thank you to Diary advertisers The Diary magazine has provided a great link to the community and over the years we've received many, many letters and phone calls from readers thanking us for the Diary magazine they receive at their home. Of course, someone has to pay for this service and it's our loyal advertisers who've enabled the magazine to run for the past 20 years. On behalf of readers, I'd like to thank Diary advertiser

Businesses displaying this medallion overleaf have been supporting this community magazine through advertising continuously for each and every one of the 20 years that the Diary's been in publication.

The future We live in an ever changing world, certainly when it comes to all the media formats to which we're exposed. The reality is that people still really love print, especially when it's related to their own community and environment. That's not to say the team here at the Diary

undervalue the power of the internet. Printed magazines have a big advantage over the internet - immediacy. Content in a magazine is already prefiltered, so need for tedious internet searches or machines to boot up, you just pick up the magazine and read!

The EastDevonHub is now the way to feed community events into the Diary magazines, it's easy and transparent. As mentioned previously, we'll also be building a high quality online resource for the Sidmouth and Budleigh Diary magazines in the near future.

Hamilton Garage

- CHURCH STREET, SIDFORD

Hamilton Garage have been part of the Sid Valley for a very long time. MD Richard Hooper tells me that there's been a garage on this site for many years, at one point in the past there was a Vauxhall dealership and also a BMW dealership.

What's amazing looking at the photo above is how many of the staff have long service with the company - it really does back up what I say about the friendliness that's evident at this local business. Richard Hooper tells me that through the years they've built up many loyal customers that come

back time and time again. I personally think that Nissan have a great range of cars at the moment (Qashqai and the Juke in particular) and it's great to think they're all made in the UK. Richard Hooper told me that Hamilton Garage is one of the longest standing Nissan dealerships in the country. You may remember that Nissan used to be called Datsun, the importers at the time being Caldene Motors at Burnt Tree, Tipton, West Midlands. My father used to have his factory unit just down from Caldene Motors, and as an apprentice, I can still remember walking past the showroom on the way to fetch the breaktime chocolate bars (in the glorious 1970s). Tipton literally was a tip in those days.

They're a great bunch of people at Hamilton and it only remains for me to thanks to them for supporting the Diary community magazines over the past 20 years.

Simon's a born-and-bred Salterton chap and his main hobby is model railways these days. Of course, I had to ask Simon why he'd been in The Budleigh Diary continuously for so long - he commented 'it's worked really well for me over the last 20 years'. Simon has grown the business he

The Harcombe Valley Care advert that was in the first issue of The Sidmouth Diary in 1995

Harcombe Valley Care I met Christine 20 years ago, pretty much the same time I started the Sidmouth Diary, when Christine had also setup her own business. Christine originally established Harcombe Valley Care with a partner, but the partner decided that the ‘care’ business was not for him, so she bought him out! The rest is history as they say. A whole 20 years later Christine still runs the business, but now with both of her daughters, Dawn and Heather.

Tales of a Yokel

D.C.B. Photography © 2015

FUN & GAMES Fun and games seem to be played by the children of today sitting down, usually in front of computer screens, playing expensive games served up to fi ll their young minds. As a boy, life was far different for me.

My family was comparatively well off as the saying goes, but my parents expected us to make our own fun. Our fun and games were therefore only limited by our imagination. Our pastimes, as they were sometimes called, varied according to the season.

The summer holidays would see us boys making our go-carts. Any and all spare pieces of wood and metal were pressed into service.

The yard at the back of the fish and chip shop was always goodpickings. The wheels were more difficult to acquire, pram wheels of course were best, especially for the back as this gave the coveted dragster effect. I once made a go-cart entirely out of old fish boxes and roller-skates, sad to say I ended up in a ditch when one of the roller-skates fell off while negotiating a particularly tricky bend.

Yarns from the inimitable FCR Esgen The winter, of course, was very different when I was a boy, they were much colder. Crisp, nosetingling days were a certainty as a precursor of what we hoped would be mountains of snow.

Then it came, small specks at fi rst, then slightly bigger, until the sky was fi lled with a million large puffs of white delight.

Every boy and girl in those days worth their salt had a snow sledge or at least something to slide down the fields or banks on. I sometimes used my Dad's wooden surfboard or one of my Mum's old tea-trays.

Life seemed to me much more fun because the games we played were all home-made.

STAYING MOBILE One plop and that was it, as I dropped my mobile and watched it sink slow and bubbling to the bottom of the loo. A number of my friends have also had the same natural disaster happen to them recently, and they all go running to the nearest phone box to contact their service

provider to see if they were insured. Losing connection with everybody on the planet had the exact opposite effect on me. I found it liberating to suddenly live the way we all used to, and it was somehow comforting to know that my world didnʼt just fall apart in a few seconds as the TV ads promised. The situation got even more interesting when later on my insurers refused to cough up the readies as, you guessed it, I hadn't read the small print properly and little phoney could only be replaced if I was mugged, or the contract terminated if I happened to drop dead, unexpectedly. I always like corporate logic, donʼt you, after all who drops dead expectedly!

So eventually, in exasperation, I was reduced to extricating my beloved water-logged mobile from the said loo before someone used it for more conventional purposes, by dragging it up the inside of the bowl with the hook end of the toilet duck and trying to dry it out in the sun, in the vain attempt that modern technology would prevail over the elements.

It didnʼt!

The Old Vet’nary

Nostalgic happenings on the farm

by Ken Watson

Animals and Climate

I

t is all the rage to talk of the vagaries of climate but such variations have a great effect on the well being of animals. This winter we had an excess of rain. One of the results of this is to flush out the drains in gutters and roadsides bringing out diseases associated with rodents, and who are the first recipients of this, but dogs and cats with their delight at close sniffing everywhere they can. I always noticed that after heavy rains there was a surge in Leptospiral diseases, mainly affecting the kidneys. Some of these can affect humans. In fact my mother died of one, Weill’s disease, back in 1933. Wet weather in Summer produces lush grass which results in profuse diarrhoea in cattle and made a walk down an old-fashioned cowshed a hazardous procedure, which is why a vet often wears a heavy waterproof on a summer’s day.

A hot dry summer also has it’s downside for animals, for when the grass is short, farm animals will be tempted by unsuitable food. I remember a farm in Metcombe where a feeding herd of young calves, short of grass, were tempted by a bumper fall of acorns. The farmer thought it was great until they started to die. There was little I could do apart from an occasional heroic operation to manually remove the poisonous acorns.

I well remember the despair of this farmer, a Charlie Chaplin of a man who wore various parts of a pin-stripe suit and would don a celluloid collar to greet visitors, even with it’s devilish studs front and back. I always wished I could have done more for him.

A spate of wet weather in Spring or Autumn brings out the ticks, and then watch out for the many diseases

HEALTH & CARE they vector, some dangerous to man. The West Country, together with parts of Scotland, was the only place where cattle suffer from a tick borne disease known locally as Red Water. Rarely fatal, it caused a drastic fall in milk production, so we were called in for treatment.

Another hazard in which the West Country excelled was poisonous snakes, the Adder. Although quite harmless in general, hot weather would bring them out to bask. Dogs, with their insatiable curiosity, were the main victims. Bites were usually on the face and feet, which would swell up alarmingly and death was common. I like to think I rarely lost a patient but it was, like the treatment for hyperthermia, all systems go. From excising the point of bite, to administering anti-venum serum, which I always stocked despite it’s eye-watering cost, to other medication and lots of strong coffee poured down the poor dog’s throat plus all efforts to keep it awake. On more than one occasion, Plymouth hospital even borrowed my serum for human use.

For sheer theatrical drama, you could not beat that moment when two weather fronts collided and produced lightening. Farm animals, in their exposed position in the field and their predilection for standing under trees or gathering round metal feeding troughs, often suffered. Fierce thunderstorms would produce a rash of farmers sure that their latest cattle, sheep or even pig, had been struck by lightening. This was to their advantage as the insurers paid up more readily for such deaths. Diplomacy was needed if the body showed no evidence for this. For the signs were unusually clear, as the power of the strike left a typical mark on the hide of the casualty. I was once called to an incident near Ottery St. Mary where cows had gathered around a metal feeding trough during a storm. Three were dead, and one of them had been thrown 10 yards by the power of the strike.

As an example of the superior sensitivity of animals, I remember the day when as I walked across my garden with my Border Terrier at my side and a thunderbolt struck the field beside my garden. I felt the shock but my dog jumped a clear foot of the ground and for the rest of the afternoon would not leave my side, even to the extent of sitting on my feet when ever she could.
