Wishing all our readers a Happy New Year.

You may be suffering from the annual feast known as Christmas! The only time of the year where calories don’t count!

If so don’t worry there are plenty of sales to visit to burn off those extra calories. Try walking down the local High Street to see what bargains you can find.

If you fancy a walk on the wild side, have you visited Yorkshire Wildlife Park? Plenty of shops and a great cafe and of course news of the painted dog pups born in December. Must be worth a visit!

Walking the way to Health in North Lincolnshire; another great activity to get us all moving after the festive period. Take a look at page 13 for more details.

Thank you to all the Arrow readers, advertisers and contributors for your input in 2016. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and I wish you good health for 2017!

History of RAF Sandtoft revealed to Men’s Society A talk on the history of Sandtoft airdrome – when it was used as a training ground for RAF bomber crews during World Was 11 – was given to members of the Epworth Men’s Society at their December meeting.

It was delivered by Society committee member, Ken Turner, who lives on the town’s High Street, and was in his early teens when what had been two farms were surveyed and purchased to be converted into the airdrome.

“As a flying training school it had a short life of just 22 months and became known as ‘prangtoft’ because of the number of accidents that took place there,” said Mr Turner, who was a RAF cadet at the time and went on to do his National Service as an engine mechanic.

He told the more that 40 Society members present that Sandtoft opened as a training facility in the February of 1944 and that despite its short life some 200 aircrew were killed due to accidents and crashes.

These included mid-air collisions and – on occasion – airplanes crashing into one another whilst manoeuvring on the ground. He said that Sandtoft was also used as a safe landing ground by operational airplanes.

Mr Turner said that the RAF training Station at Sandtoft eventually closed in the December of 1945.

Anyone interested in finding out more about the Men’s Society is asked to telephone Ken Bickerstaff on (01427) 872288. Membership cost just £3.00 a year.

THE W.W.2 DIARY OF CLIFFORD SPENCER 1764164 Gunner. SPENCER Clifford 27 L.A.A. (Light Ack Ack) Regt, R.A. (Royal Artillery) (107 Bty. (Battery)) Adapted & edited for publication by Anthony E. Catherall th.

Jul. 12 We have been getting parcels regular lately. Good news about Sicily.

Jul. 18th.

Sunday Once again the hut is quiet. There is a concert going on outside. The news has been good this week. I have had five letters, three from you dear. Oh my darling your letters are beautiful, they make tears come to my eyes at times. Our little Julie seems to be full of life. Now for the biggest laugh I have developed a little tummy. Nearly everyone in the camp has. It’s what we call a ‘skilly-belly’, it will go when we get more solid food, this Itie stuff fills one with wind. I never had one like this before. Gosh it is hot these days. I’m glad I don’t have to work in it in fact I don’t think I could stick it. The coolest place is in the huts; the evenings are lovely, I don’t wear a shirt, from getting up to going to bed. For a little exercise I play at a game called Tenner quoits after tea when the heat of the day is gone.

Well, after fourteen weeks my foot is better after the burns. Shall be going to the service later on, it’s now about 7.15p.m. I’ve just had my tea. Would have been a decent meal in winter but not my idea for a hot Sunday tea. I had cocoa, fried sausages, and egg flakes we are getting those in parcels now. It’s like a powder in a tin, put it to steep in water, then fry, it tastes like the yolk of the egg.

Good night my darlings, xxx Jul. 19th.

What a day, for three hours 11am - 2pm there was a raid on, we could hear AA and bombs, I understand it’s Rome that has been bombed, then there came leaflets, thousands of them flying over the camp, a few dropping inside the camp. What a sight. Of course we have had it read out. It was telling the Ities that Rome would be bombed, but all the historical places would not. It stated that their pilots would be picked, and would bomb in daylight, today must have been the first go. All the civvies left their work and went home. I felt very sorry for them. I am sure they don’t want wars, and I do believe that they would be glad if England did take over. They are between two fires.

Tonight there’s been finals of the basket-ball teams, and a comic match. A team of men dressed as women.

What a laugh, best bit of fun I’ve had for a long time, the band was also in attendance. It’s been red hot again. So to bed once more and wondering if we shall hear a raid again, we did last night, beside today.

Jul. 20th.

Yes! Rome was bombed all night. The brown bomber, (that by the way is the chap who is in charge of all the workers in the camp) his house was hit. There has been, Donkey carts, Lorries, all kind of vehicles evacuating people today. Tonight two days after it was bombed, there is still a big red glow in the sky.

Jul. 21st.

Today’s paper says there were hundreds of planes taking part, and a lot of damage done.

They are very bitter about it, and think Rome should be left alone. They should have thought of that when England was bombed, although I’m sorry for the aged and children.

Jul. 25th.

Sunday lovely day. Service, we have had it in a new building, which is not used. Much better, a lot more attended a good service, and some good singing.

Jul. 26th.

A day to remember! 6.30am this morning, I was woken up by some of the farmers. They went up to the gate to go out, but were not allowed out. They came back all excited saying that Mosso (Mussolini) had left Italy. Royalists had taken over. More rumours we thought, wishing they would shut up and let us carry on with our sleep. Anyway roll call came, and there were all the guard’s in-groups all smiling and telling us what had happened, so we began to think there must be something in it. So what my feelings are, I don’t know, can it be that we will soon be free, or will they still fight on, or will Jerry take over. We will still have to wait and see what tomorrow brings, and hope and pray that God will bring peace.

Jul.27th.

The news is that Hassim (no explanation) are out of it, but the war carries on.

Jul. 28th. -9th. Rumours of all kinds, Italy out of the war. Peace signed at various times. Mosso assassinated Jul. 30th.

We think that something is going on. We hope peace talks; we know that it takes time.

Meanwhile the paper says the war still goes on. I think we will know our fate in a month. Parcels one between four. No more until some comes in. A lot of sports gear has come from the Red Cross, and the Ities have destroyed most of it. Cricket balls cut open. Bat handles cut off, out of 200 Ping-Pong balls, only three14 Footballs Pleasehave mention “The when responding to advertisements left whole. come, but thereArrow” is no place to play Jul. 31st.

Hair cut.

Now & Then—Then & Now No 93 By Anthony Catherall

This month and every month see Isle villages in bygone days and compare to today’s image .

The road to Belton from Epworth during the early part of the 20th century was called Crowle Road.

Mill owner Harry Brooks and his family lived in the house on the right centre of picture, hence the name Brooks Mill. Opposite their house the Mill was built about 1800 and like all windmills at the time was fully wind powered until around 1840. Fairview Cottage right, (once named Reindeer Farm) was built in 1864. It has seen varied businesses on its grounds. In this Edgar Leonard.

Scrivens postcard circa 1935, Harry Reed was in occupancy, he specialised in traction engines and threshing machines and they were stored in the yard. It was sold on to a Mr Ellerby, who was in haulage until 1972. Today’s occupants Tony and Sandra Peters migrated to Epworth from Southampton. With son James together they run their successful home improvement business, I met them as a satisfied customer. The roadside house (one of Epworth’s most prominent) sits in three acres mostly set to fields. At the eastern edge at top of the field many walkers stop and rest to make friends with the two delightful horses named ’Red & Sunny’, both have been with the family for over 30 years. Daughter forty four year old Yvonne gave up show jumping with ’Red’ at seventeen and James ceased riding ’Sunny’ as a five-year old. The picture below taken in October 2016, shows the Mill today as a private residence while white cladded Fairview Cottage has lost its western window and small greenhouse below. The road most of us use from time to time is much busier too.

Volunteer, and change your future!

So why volunteer? All sorts of people volunteer for many different reasons, but one thing that unites them, is they find it challenging, rewarding and fun.

The Scout Association, as one of the UK’s largest youth organisations is well known for what we offer young people. But our volunteers get a lot out of the experience too. Learning new skills, making new friends, and seeing young people grow and develop, which is very rewarding.

Locally here in Isle of Axholme, Scouting is growing and making a big impression, much of this is being achieved by us having the right people in the right places. Every adult volunteer in Scouting gets something different out of the experience of volunteering with us. Building up new skills, seeing the benefit young people get from the activities or even just giving something back to their community. Speak to anyone of our current volunteers and each will have their own story.

Mandy – “From coming down to help out early on at a Beaver meeting, I have really enjoyed helping Scouting, Know it sounds corny, but I have gained a lot, becoming an Assistant Beaver Leader, then making a real jump to taking on the Group Scout Leaders role. By day I am a health care worker, working with teenage mums. The great thing about being the Group Scout Leader, my work is flexible to meet the needs of my clients, and the Group Scout Leader role allows me to volunteer flexibly as well. The difference Scouting has made to my family, and the members of the group, it great to see everyone getting a buzz from some fun activities.”

Volunteering with the Scouts has some great benefits as well, and some which are really tangible, such as, adults who complete their training are eligible for membership of the Institute of Leadership and Management (looks great on the CV!). Plus over 40% of employers say that Scouting makes people more employable. Plus adult volunteers receive great privileges from some of our partners.

Want to find out more about volunteering in a manager role with the Scouts contact stuart.nimmo@scouts.org.uk or call 01484 519305. Interested in other opportunities with us look at www.scouts.org.uk/join
