ROYAL AIR FORCE LINDHOLME Adapted and Edited for publication by Anthony Catherall acknowledgement to Margaret Draper Minutes of an Extraordinary Meeting held on 28th September 1942 Horse Drawn Transport: Squadron Leader Lindsay explained that owing to petrol rationing restrictions it was considered that a horse drawn vehicle was desirable. The matter was then fully discussed. Squadron Leader Lindsay stated that a horse could be obtained for £35 and a set of harness for £5. It would be possible to buy feeding stuff for the horse. The outfit would be available for hire by sections at a fee, and the cost of a 1/- per passenger would be made to Officers on Mess journeys. It was proposed by Squadron Leader Wilson and seconded by Flight Lieutenant Sharp that the committee be authorised to purchase the following items, at the prices stated: Horse £35, Harness £5 and the vehicle at £17. This was unanimously agreed. Minutes of Mess Committee Meeting held on Monday 2nd November 1953 The PMC intimated to the Committee that it had been necessary to call in a Vet for the horse which was purchased and that his report was to the effect that the horse would not suit the Mess’s purpose. It was agreed that the PMC negotiate with the person from whom the horse was bought, with a view to returning it to him and recovering the price paid. CHAPTER 4 The unit diary tells us that after VE Day the transition to peace-time conditions began. The staff worked hard training crews to form the ‘Tiger Force’ of Lancasters scheduled to bomb Japan but now there were distractions from the main task. Aircraft from Lindholme flew over Germany again but this time on ‘Lindy Trips’, trips arranged so that station ground personnel could see the damage caused to the Ruhr area by the incessant Allied attacks. In June 1945, fifty-six tourists patronised the ‘Lindy’ organisation and during the next month a further ninety-five travellers flew over the Ruhr. The station records are no longer full of training details but now show the tremendous changes that peace inevitably brought. In one month 5,717 tickets for the station cinema were sold and no less than 430 people attended a concert arranged by the Music Circle. ‘EVT’ – Educational and Vocational Training, became the order of the day; the proliferation of classes included Furniture Design, Watchmaking and Hairdressing. In June 240 students were on the class registers and, with resettlement in mind, trips were arranged to local factories and firms so that people leaving the Service could – often for the first time – see what civilian life was really like. There were other changes too. One young NCO of that era recalls: “training slackened off, then the bull started, there were parades, and we marched to and from work, there were drill competitions between the WRAF and aircrew and NCO drill courses” (1) The defeat of Japan coincided with an outbreak of enteritis on the camp and 178 people were laid low in sick quarters while the rest of the camp celebrated the final victory. There was apparently considerably more excitement during the VJ celebrations than there had been for those on VE Day. (2) This was perhaps appropriate as the celebrations marked the end of an era. The main task was now in suspense and changes were bound to follow. (1)

Some choices in life are too important to take lightly or rush. That’s why choosing the right setting for your child’s education is worth really thinking about. Outcomes at secondary school help determine life chances. South Axholme Academy prides itself on offering the very best academic, learning experience, from Year 7 to Year 13, with a wealth of extra curricular and enrichment opportunities to rival anything other schools and academies, private and state funded, can offer locally and regionally. From amazing examination results, year on year, to theatre trips, ski trips, sporting activities, bands and musical opportunities we have it all. This coupled with highly qualified pastoral staff mean that all students who attend the academy are supported to be the very best that they can be. In particular, success in our 6th Forms’ recent A level results was phenomenal with all students going on to their chosen pathway. It was with great pride and excitement that we waved students off to highly sought after courses including medicine as well as veterinary medicine on results day in August. Students in the 6th Form enjoy extremely favourable class sizes with specialist teaching staff alongside bespoke and focused one to one support in everything from applying to university to accessing funding and pastoral support generally. By choosing South Axholme Academy, you are investing wisely in your child’s future. Don’t believe us? Check out our website at www.southaxholmeacademy.co.uk with links to our latest Ofsted report, examination results and news and activities, or, contact Mrs C Tillen at the academy if you want to come along for a chat.

Romeo and Juliet visit Epworth Old Rectory On a glorious evening on 31st of August, Shakespeare again appeared at Epworth Old Rectory with the Handlebards' performance of Romeo and Juliet. Part of the Old Rectory's role is to be of service to the community and this performance certainly did that. The audience came from all sections of our community, from 5 year old India up to audience members in their 8th decade. They enjoyed their picnic in the grounds for an hour of more prior to the performance, ably entertained by a talented local amateur musician with a mix of folk and easily listening music, who sang again during the half way interval. His music was enjoyed by all, if the singing along, swaying and clapping had anything to do with it. Handlebards consisted of a group of four lovely, talented young actresses who kept the audience involved and enthralled with their performance, with each one taking on multiple roles within the play, including a song and dance number at the very end, which, although surprising on the night, was often an integral, part of the entertainment in Elizabethan England when these fabulous plays were first written and performed. The Rectory gardens rang with laughter during the comedy elements and quiet contemplation during the tragic parts, but no matter what was happening and where in the play I looked at the audience I saw genuine enjoyment all around, even when a member of the audience was roped in to play a dead Juliet, as the actress herself pointed out, "I can't do it, I have to be someone else!" A thoroughly enjoyable evening all round. Our thanks to Handlebards for their spirited performance, but also to all the staff and volunteers, and you know who you are, who made it such a marvellous evening. Cath Fordham

After a glorious summer several members of the Epworth and District Flower Club assembled to watch Jo Smith, an area demonstrator, entertain with an evening entitled “My World of Inspiration”. Jo was welcomed back by Carolyn Drury. It was commented that the four years since Jo had previously visited had gone very rapidly. Jo began by explaining that her title had developed from her eclectic mix of “items” suitable for creating arrangements around and produced a small chair for the base of her first arrangement. She also introduced to many of the group, brown Oasis which has been developed to degrade by 52% in the first year, an incomparable development on the original Oasis. Using the chair as a support Jo arranged foliage which included rhuscus (a favourite we were to discover), peony and eucalyptus, Jo continued by inserting lilac coloured pompom dahlias, with their foliage and pale pink snowberries which made quite an impact. The second arrangement was entitled The Shard and Jo’s commentary was about her visit with her mother to The Shard in London. This time her arrangement was created using two triangular structures. Her foliage this time included cordyline, sinecio and large aspidistra leaves which she curled back onto themselves. Her flowers were white agapanthus and large red roses. A tall piece of driftwood formed the basis for the third arrangement and Jo told her audience how she enjoyed walking along the beach at Cleethorpes when it was not too busy. The foliage to begin was large Fatsia leaves and bergenia, eucalyptus, hearts tongue fern and hosta. To extend upwards Jo added autumn shaded flowers. These were red hot pokers, crocosmia, fire ferns, autumn grasses which looked like furry caterpillars and orange zinnia. A long trough was next produced and Jo proceeded to tell us of her venture into the man’s world of allotments. Finally Jo talked about her entry for the National Nafas competition. She told us how she had always wanted to create a “dress” design and for this event she had the opportunity. She recreated her entry, which was titled Masquerade, using more rhuscus and long flowing ferns, palm leaves and other foliage before adding long sprigs of molucella (Bells of Ireland). On completion Jo placed a wire dummy of the upper body attached to which was a mask and then she placed her arrangement to appear as the skirt. It was beautiful and very dramatic. Jo was then thanked by Carolyn for her interesting and enjoyable demonstration before all of the displays were raffled off and 7 lucky people would be able to enjoy the wonderful arrangements for longer.
