Back to school time already! Good luck to all those starting school or nursery for the first time, moving to a new school, heading off to College, University, Apprenticeship or first job. The summer holidays do seem to have gone quickly, but then they always do. This year I have been lucky enough to visit Orlando, Florida for the first time. 13 of us made our way around all of the Disney Parks, Universal Studios and various other Florida attractions. I now need another holiday to recover! Lots of great memories have been made however. The October issue will be delivered to you late September. If you would like to have something included in this, please make sure details are with me by Friday 14th September. Enjoy September and I will be back in a months’ time with your October magazine.

Hi Everyone, We hope you are all enjoying your summer break. I know how difficult it has been to try and keep your pets cool in the heat, it’s also been really hard walking your dogs, as the ideal time is closer to 9pm when the weather has cooled slightly, that’s if we are able to stay awake until then! Here are some special people to thank. Charlotte and Rob MacConnachie have taken part in a 3 Peak Challenge. Charlotte and her colleagues from Cannon Fire APG Group carried out a sponsored walk on the 11th August. They have raised sponsorship for 3 worthwhile Charities including Mayflower Sanctuary. So a very big thank you and we hope your legs were not too sore at the end of the Challenge. One of our regular supporters will be at the Austerfield Village Show on the 2nd Sept so I hope it is a good day and everyone has fun and supports all the Charities there. We will be holding a Ladies only night in our Reception at the Sanctuary in October (date to be confirmed) keep an eye on our Website. This will be glass of punch, coffee and cake. There will be interesting stalls and if you haven’t started your Christmas shopping maybe that’s a good place to start. Tickets will be £ 5 to include the above. Please support this event ladies, I think you will find it will be great fun. Please see our lovely special selection of cats this month. Penny is our cattery manager and she will be happy to chat to you about all the cats in her care.

Tilly Female 3 years July 2018 Possibly ? ?

Tilly came into care with her buddies Rupert and Tabby because their owner was being evicted and was unable to take them with him to the new house. As previous housecats they have found life difficult here and have struggled to settle but are getting there now. Tilly is proving to be a fussy little lady although she can be a little tentative at first. She is good with other cats, particularly Rupert. She has previously lived with a dog but it chased her constantly so she may be wary of any canine friends. A home with Rupert would be perfect but Tilly would be happy to be homed alone. All she wants is a family to call her own again and a warm lap to cuddle up on in the evening. Not much to ask for eh ???

Rupert Male 2 Years July 2018 Possibly Some Older

Rupert came into care with his buddies Tilly and Tabby because their owner was being evicted and was unable to take them with him to the new house. As previous housecats they have found life difficult here and have struggled to settle. Rupert is quite a timid little chap and as such he may like to remain as a housecat in his new home. He gets easily spooked by loud/sudden noises. He is very shy at first meeting but once he gets to know you, he can be quite fussy with a purr like a tractor. All he needs is a little time and patience for his true personality to come shining through. The wait will be worth it. He is extremely close to his buddies so a home with one of them would be preferred. He has previously lived with a dog but it chased him constantly so he may be wary of any canine friends.

If you wish to call us regarding our cats or dogs please call 01302 711330 and leave a message we will be happy to contact you.

Miners Pension Compensation We are successfully claiming compensation for former miners who transferred out of the Mineworkers Pension Scheme. Many miners were advised to transfer their British Coal Pension to a private pension scheme which paid considerably less! This was bad advice and many retired miners or their widows have lost out.

Example 1 - £110,000

Example 2 - £48,000

Mr D, a former miner from Barnsley, was made redundant in the late 1980s. After the pits closed he was encouraged by an agent of the Prudential to transfer his Mineworkers Pension Scheme to them. We were able to show that this was bad advice. The Prudential eventually accepted this and agreed settlement of £110,000.

Mr F, a former miner from Doncaster, was made redundant in the 1980’s. He was advised by an agent of Sun Life to transfer his Mineworkers Pension Scheme to them. He was promised he would get a much better return which wasn’t the case. We submitted a formal complaint; Sun Life agreed to award Mr F a lump sum of £48,333.34.

Community The Great Bassetlaw Flower Show at Bassetlaw Museum and Art Gallery in Retford This exhibition will include work by Ted Hamlyn, Janet Buckle, Neil McGregor, Ann Everitt, Hilary Cartmel, Kate Houghton, Polly Warren, Maggy Milner, Rosemary Firth, Chris Campbell, Carol Eason, Julian Grainger, Kate van Millingen and Michael Johnson. The artists, who have worked with Flowers as a subject, often over many years. They are a mixed group and include graduates from the Royal College of Art, The Slade, St Martins and the Trent Poly (Nottingham) Fine Art degree course. This exhibition seeks to visually explore why in these super high tech times does this subject matter, often perceived as soft and genteel still hold relevance to artists working today. In the UK we spend over £1billion every year on these most fragile and beautiful objects* in order to have the real things in our homes, to place on the graves of loved ones, to give as gifts of thanks, celebration or apology. They bring joy and are something that almost all of us share a passion for in some way.

For many artists Flowers are an absorbing and demanding subject. Flowers are shortlived, so lack of time is an additional pressure for the artist to solve the problem of colour and form and expression.

The show will include a range of paintings, collages, drawings and printmaking approaches with several works by each artist.

Walks for Carers and the Cared For in Doncaster A new initiative has been launched in Doncaster, to help get Carers and the Cared for, out and about walking! In the year when we celebrate the 70th anniversary of the NHS, let’s remember too the hundreds, nay thousands who regularly care and look after elderly parents, young children, friends or neighbours, with little recognition or reward. The carers task is ceaseless, stressful and isolating. Walking and especially walking in groups, eases tension and raises WKH VSLULWV )RU DQ KRXU RU WZR WKH ZRUOG LV D GLÎ? HUHQW SODFH 7KXV LW ZDV RQ RXU Č´ UVW :DON IRU &DUHUV DQG WKH &DUHG )RU DW Cusworth Hall on Wednesday 11th July. Sponsored by Sports England and organised by Doncaster Carers Centre, and Doncaster Ramblers, 35 excited participants took a coach from South Parade to Cusworth Hall. Waiting there to greet them were seven eager Ramblers ready as guides on their walk. In fact two walks were planned, a shorter stroll around the grounds of Cusworth Hall, and a more ambitious trek out to Sprotbrough and returning via the TPT. As the sun shone everyone was keen to make a start, but not before the obligatory group photo. There is a hill at Cusworth Hall which was the main challenge for both groups, but luckily there was plenty of help at hand to get up and down. Indeed the 24 who took the longer route of about four miles, were an inspiration. Spirits were high as everyone retuned safe to the cafĂŠ at Cusworth Hall, where much welcome afternoon tea had been laid on. At 3pm the coach returned everyone to South Parade. The next Walk for Carers and Cared For will be to Chatsworth House on Wednesday 12th September.

Arts Review

& what’s going on - SEPTEMBER 2018 •

VAL HUNT Do you know about JUST A CARD Campaign? This aims to encourage people to buy from Designer/Makers and Independent Galleries and your local Shops in your town or village, by reinforcing the message that all purchases, however small, even ‘just a card’ are so vital to the prosperity and survival of small businesses. The campaign came about when Artist & Designer Sarah Hamilton saw the quote “If everyone who’d complimented our beautiful gallery had bought ‘just a card’ we’d still be open” by store keepers who’d recently closed their gallery. This prompted a call to action! Designer/Makers and independent shops and galleries need a voice. People seldom realise the considerable costs involved in exhibiting at design shows or keeping a shop open. Stand fees, power, materials, wages etc need to be met before even a penny of profit can be realised. Running a shop is often a labour of love. Without dedication and passion, and crucially sales, it would be another boarded up eyesore. This is true for all the things I list on this page. Without your support and/ or the purchase of ‘just a card’ then there would be nothing to list here. www.justacard.org Now then, it’s that time of year when you need to be dusting off your masterworks and preparing them for exhibition in the Doncaster Open Exhibition 2018. Application forms are in all the local libraries and the Museum itself. Delivery dates for ‘judgement’ are 20 to 23 September and the show, which is hung ‘salon-style’. The show runs from 13 October to 9 December. Be a part of it! Doncaster Museum and Art Gallery open Wed to Sunday Exhibition: Until 16th September ‘ENDANGERED AND EXTINCT: RECYCLED SCULPTURES’ by Val Hunt. This is a super vibrant exhibition of old tin cans made into the most fantastic creatures. Her craftsmanship is amazing and painstaking, Val has also made a ‘jewellery’ collection, so beware, you might need to buy some!

$ KRVW RI JROGHQ 'DÎ? RGLOV Garden centres, nurseries and catalogues are full of daffodil bulbs now. I have to exercise supreme self-restraint every time I wander in! I think I get asked more questions about daffodils than any other plant, apart from roses. I think it’s because they are ubiquitous in the spring and so we assume they are easy to grow. They are...and they aren’t, so I’ll answer the most common questions I get asked here. I think the question I get most is ’How do I get P\ GDIIRGLOV WR Ă€ RZHU PRUH WKDQ RQH \HDU"Âś It’s a good question. It’s tempting to think that the only thing you have to remember about planting daffodil bulbs is to set them pointy side up, but it’s a bit more complicated than that if \RX ZDQW WKHP WR Ă€ RZHU HYHU\ \HDU The trick is to set them deep enough. If you plant them just below the surface, as so many of people do, they dry out, which means they lack the food and moisture to get them through until the following year. The result is an uninteresting clump of leaves rather than a host of golden daffodils.

The third question I’m often asked is, ‘How far DSDUW VKRXOG , SODQW WKH EXEV" They should be planted about 3 inches / 8cm apart in holes about 10 inches / 25cm deep. It looks deep when you are dropping them in EXW LWÂśV ZRUWK WKH HIIRUW IRU WKH UHSHDW Ă€ RZHULQJ &KRRVH WKH ELJJHVW Âż UPHVW EXOEV \RX FDQ Âż QG for each variety. 7KH Âż QDO TXHVWLRQ , JHW DVNHG LV Âľ:KHQ FDQ , FXW GRZQ WKH IROLDJH DIWHU Ă€ RZHULQJ"Âś , ZRXOG suggest waiting for 6 weeks. If you have a very small garden and can’t bear to have untidy foliage lying around you might be better treating the bulbs as annuals (daffodil bulbs aren’t generally expensive.). Or you can plant them in an aquatic basket, and after Ă€ RZHULQJ \RX FDQ GLJ WKH EDVNHW XS ZDWHU WKH bulbs regularly then replant in the autumn.

You can plant daffodils any time now, to the end of October. Sooner is better.

Alternatively, you can buy dwarf varieties of GDIIRGLO ZKLFK KDYH GDLQWLHU À RZHUV DQG IROLDJH VR \RX FDQ KDYH SUHWW\ À RZHUV ZLWKRXW WKH resulting foliage posing a problem.

The next question I get asked a lot is, ‘What’s WKH GLIIHUHQFH EHWZHHQ GDIIRGLOV DQG QDUFLVVL"Âś

Whatever you decide, remember plant deeper than you think and‌

This is also a good question. All daffodils are narcissi, but not all narcissi are daffodils! ‘Daffodils’ is the name we give to narcissi with large trumpets.

Happy gardening!

New Beginnings Dear Friends, As September approaches my thoughts are full of new beginnings. Of children returning to school after the long summer holidays. Young people beginning a college course or leaving home for university life. The start of the new academic year for teachers and support VWDÎ? 2I JDUGHQHUV HQMR\LQJ WKH ODWH Čľ RXULVK RI Čľ RZHU EHGV SDUFKHG EH\RQG HQGXUDQFH but miraculously restored by recent rainfall. For myself, a new beginning, as I settle into my new role as Lay Pastor of the Methodist Churches in Bawtry, Harworth and Tickhill. For the UK wide Connexion of Methodist Churches it is the beginning of our new church year. And some churches choose this time WR UH DÉ? UP WKHLU FRPPLWPHQW WR *RG WKH church and whatever it is that each person is uniquely called to do as a follower of Jesus. We make this beautiful prayer to God:

By this prayer we acknowledge that for some of us there seems to be no way forward, no new beginning possible and as I pray these words, I think particularly of lives ruled by addiction, constrained by acute illness, or lost to dementia. But God is with us always and it is the whole of life and the whole of us that is held in God’s loving care. As the church, we are blessed to be a part of so many new beginnings. The Christening of a baby; the marriage of a couple; the funeral of a loved one, which we believe celebrates both the life on earth of the person and the start for that individual of a new perfect existence with God, in heaven, forever. But even more, as the church, we are a community called to new beginnings. We are ordinary people who fail and disappoint, ourselves and each other. But through the unending generosity of our loving God, are forgiven, UHVWRUHG RÎ? HUHG D IUHVK VWDUW D QHZ EHJLQQLQJ

Let me be employed for you or laid aside for you,

So I have shared some of my new beginnings with you and you have shared some of your new beginnings with us, your local Christian community. Know that we are here should you need us and be assured of the warmest of welcomes.

Exalted for you or brought low for you;

May God bless you and keep you.

I am no longer my own but yours. Put me to what you will, rank me with whom you will; 3XW PH WR GRLQJ SXW PH WR VXÎ? HULQJ

Let me be full, let me be empty, Let me have all things, let me have nothing;

Alice Curry

I freely and wholeheartedly yield all things to your pleasure and disposal.

Lay Pastor Doncaster Methodist Circuitb

Tickhill Horticultural Society Our July speaker on Thursday 26th was Colin Hickman, son of Steve the Chelsea gold medal winner for his Agapanthus, Tulbaghias, Nerines and Clivias. Colin’s speciality is the Dierama, another corm from South Africa and known as Angels Fishing Rods. With varieties growing from just 12 inches high up to 7 or 8 feet there is a wide range of sizes and colours to choose from. Colin advised us on cultivation and propagation. He told us that Dierama will often self-seed with some interesting results due to cross-pollination.

I am so proud of all the swimmers who handled themselves really professionally and worked so hard all season long.

The new barrow, smart and clean!

Tickhill Town Council are pleased to reveal Nigel’s new and very smart looking barrow. This has been made possible by the very generous donations from the community and business people of Tickhill. A very big thank you to all. Into his old barrow went: 236weeks of collecting 8796 bags of rubbish which equated to 43980kgs of rubbish, plus 1905 un-bagged dog excrements. The average bag weight was calculated at 5kgs. This was not all rubbish picked up from the streets, some was from the litter bins, which were emptied so that they could be used. Thank you, Cllr Cannings, for keeping our town tidy, and I am sure everyone in Tickhill wishes you another happy 5yrs of litter picking.

May saw the introduction of a new Scout brand and emphasis on what we do. The fleur-de-lys still exists but in a much simpler form. The familiar whoosh symbol has disappeared altogether. As with all things nowadays we also have to have a “strap line”. Scouting’s strap line is “Skills for Life”. Not quite as snappy as “Be Prepared” but just as significant and probably more meaningful. The new Scout logo and the attendant sectional logos will start to appear on all our documents etc. in the near future. Whilst the management side of Scouting has been doing whatever it does, the rest of us have got on with Scouting. The Beaver colony has had a very busy month. They visited Pets at Home in Doncaster for a session on how to look after and care for pets. This is an introduction to the Animal Friend Badge. The following weekend all the Beavers went to Hesley Wood Scout Activity Centre in Chapeltown for a day of fun. The youngsters were able to tackle climbing walls, ride a zip wire, go on a cross country toboggan run, crate stacking etc. as well as take part in many less active but just as challenging craft and play activities. The Cubs entered a scarecrow in the Scarecrow Festival. Didn’t win anything but at least they took part. The Phoenix Explorer Scout Unit provided a service team to help at the recent opening of Tickhill Castle. This was very much appreciated by Mr and Mrs Moss. The jamboree team, 7 youngsters from the Explorer unit who have been selected to attend the World Jamboree in the USA next year, ran a very successful refreshment stall at the same event. Thanks to everyone who has donated stamps, these are still needed at any time. A new venture started by the jamboree team is collecting any foreign currency. This includes those coins that no one will exchange back into sterling when you return to the UK. These can be delivered to the Scout and Guide HQ on a Tuesday evening or delivered to me – contact Bob Kitchen, 01302 743430.

As such, I continue to urge all parents to remind your children of the severe risks such actions carry, which includes a danger to homes, people, animals and farm crops. Over the last month, the continuing hot days and warm nights have forced some of us to leave windows open at night and sadly, we have seen some cases where opportunist thieves have taken advantage of the situation.
