Hi Readers, This month I’m not going to talk about the dreaded ‘C’ word and I’m also not going to mention any bingo words, such as ‘restrictions’, ‘lockdown’, ‘rule of 6’ etc etc. It hasn’t gone away, it has affected everybody’s lives in one way or another, we shouldn’t be complacent but that said, I, like many of you, want my life back! And this month has seen the return of the shops.

I’m sure that you’re all aware by now that I am passionate about small business and that it is synonymous with ‘Shopping local’, which has never been more important than currently. Many of our local businesses have been unable to open and as such trade. The stress that they have endured trying to keep the wheels on, has at times been too much to bear and many shops & businesses, big and small, have fallen along the way. Having felt the pain ourselves to some degree (although we were fortunate enough to limp along from home), the people in these industries are my absolute heroes. The adaptability, resilience and fortitude that every business owner has shown, should be celebrated and the very least we can do is support them in their comeback.

Liam and I popped down to Alfreton Market during the opening week on a Saturday and met the traders, you can read all about our experience in our Alfreton & Swanwick editions and online. I may have mentioned this before, but when I was a kid, I had a stint on my cousin’s cheese stall and it proper gave me the bug! I love markets, car-boots, fairs etc and I really love trading on them.

Having spoken with many of the traders, we found such a mixed bag between, longevity, products sold, whether they kept running throughout lockdowns and how they had to distracted. Which unfortunately often results in more accidents at work, while adapt but what was apparent was the resolve of all these people to carry on. It was also wonderful to see a couple of start-up businesses which began trading through lock-down and are working hard to build a business from it.

I truly think that through dark times, opportunities arise and sometimes, we talk more about what we’ve lost than the successes that we have gained. I would urge anyone who spots an opportunity, to grab it with both hands and with that in mind, Alfreton Market has some cracking deals for crafts and start-up businesses & I believe that most local markets have similar incentives – so if your dream is retail, why not give them a call!

In other news and in the same vein, local elections – use your vote and use it wisely and don’t try and read anything into that other than – we only get a say if we turn up and

From the Editor vote, irrespective of your persuasion! We did want to run a feature about all the local elections etc but decided against it for fear of vitriol from the keyboard warriors who assume my position without question!

I’m off to enjoy the sunshine and visit some local independent traders #shoplocal ….it’s our future!!

Sutton Heritage Society

Schools over the years.

Schools have changed quite a lot over the years. Initially only boys were taught. Next, boys and girls in the same school, but separated by going in different doors. They played in different areas. Those schools having different age groups from infants through to seniors in the same school must have been very difficult for teachers organising the days’ work.

The heating for schools by open fires in some cases. Certainly wouldn’t be allowed now with health and safety. The toilets outside.

Children sent home for lunch, and back again to work through the afternoon. No such thing as school meals. Were you left-handed, did you get rapped on the knuckles and made to write with your other hand? Children misbehaving being smacked with a cane – some bright sparks even putting a book

down their trousers so the punishment didn’t hurt! Some talking, and a missile of chalk or something bigger would come whooshing at the side of your head.

Learning by repetition. “ I times 2 is 2…”

Countries on a globe…. No TV learning, it didn’t exist. Some church schools would have assemblies before school, and again at the end of the day. Religion was a mainstay.

Walking there and back to school, not many people had cars.

With the advent of the wartime, children might have been at school either in the morning or the afternoon. Room had to be made for the evacuees, and the teachers who came with them. Factor in some schools being used as recovery areas for the soldiers returning from Dunkirk, and it shows how large the class sizes would be.

A fire in situ at a local school discovered during renovations a few years ago

Slimming World Recipe Zesty Salmon Pasta Summer is just about here, and the prospect of eating a tasty, fresh and filling bowl of salmon pasta whilst sat in the garden with a nice sparkly

drink is getting closer. I can’t wait!

Serves: 4

Ready in: 25mins

Syns per serving: FREE

Method: 1. Cook the pasta according to the pack instructions, then drain and return to the pan, reserving 100ml of the pasta cooking water.

2. Meanwhile, spray a wide non-stick frying pan with low-calorie cooking spray and place over a medium-high heat. Add the salmon chunks and cook for 1-2 minutes or until just cooked, stirring occasionally. Transfer to a plate.

3. Add the peppers, garlic and green beans to the frying pan and cook for 6-8 minutes or until tender and lightly charred, stirring often. Add to the salmon cubes and mix gently.

4. Toss the salmon mixture through the pasta and stir in the fromage frais, lemon zest, chopped watercress and as much of the pasta water as you need to make a good sauce. Season lightly and divide between plates or shallow bowls. Scatter over the watercress sprigs and serve with lemon wedges to squeeze over.

Ingredients: • 500g dried fusilli pasta • Low-calorie cooking spray • 4 skinless and boneless salmon fillets, cut into bite-size chunks • 2 peppers (any colours), deseeded and chopped • 1 garlic clove, crushed • 300g green beans, trimmed and halved • 100g fat-free natural fromage frais • 1 large unwaxed lemon, zested and cut into wedges • Small bag of watercress, a few sprigs reserved, the rest chopped

WELCOME BACK TO

THE HIGH STREET This month we wanted to welcome back all the businesses on our local high streets. They have had a rough year not only worrying about their health but also their livelihoods and as such ‘Shopping local’ and has never been more important than now.

Our local shops, traders and businesses have been hit hard by Covid-19 and they desperately need our help if they are to survive.

Please don’t assume that because lockdown is ending, they are out of the woods. This is make-or-break time for so many businesses.

Local businesses are your friends, your neighbours, the parents of the kids at school, the guy from the pub and the nice lady who walks her dog down the park. They are your local community. And the money spent with local businesses stays in the local community, to be spent again and again. Rather than the money spent at the big shops, which mostly leaves straight away.

So be brave and be impulsive. Pop down to your local shops, market or pick up that phone today and make that booking. It really is the difference between our local businesses surviving and disappearing, perhaps for good this time!

Support Local Businesses!

The ‘pandemic’ may not be over yet - actually it may never be completely over, as viruses are pesky wee blighters that continually adapt and change - but at least we can now get out and about with a little more freedom.

Shopping is one of the things that many people say they have missed during the repeated lockdowns. Supermarket food shopping and online browsing doesn’t hold a candle to mooching round actual shops…well for some people anyway!

Evidence of this ‘must go shopping syndrome’ (MGSS) was all over the news when the restrictions were lifted, with multiple images of people queuing to get in the likes of Primark, other city centre department stores and out of town retail parks.

Great for those stores (and their shareholders!) but what about the small traders on your local high streets. The one man (and woman) bands who have struggled to survive during the crises, often with very little help from government.

Some of these small local retail outlets may have managed to stay open during lockdown, the ones providing essential services anyway, please don’t let them down now the economy is reopening, by heading elsewhere!

What about the cafes, hairdressers, barbers, beauticians, gift shops, and the myriad other small shops you can find in every town and village? Some haven’t survived, some may still find themselves unable to continue even though clientele is returning, and others will be testing the water - can they make up for the devastating losses of the last year, or should they give up?

The people who run these businesses are our friends, often our family, they are the lifeblood of our local communities and we cannot afford to lose them and their businesses. According to website

22

www.indieretail.uk, stats show that for every £1 spent with a local, independent business, between 50p-70p circulates back into the local economy. That same pound spent in a retail chain will see a mere 5p trickling down to local level, it’s a company’s shareholders who ultimately benefit.

Don’t kid yourself that your small spend won’t make a difference - it will! An article in The Independent just before Christmas 2020 said that, according to Visa, if we all spent £5 extra per week with small businesses it would help to keep them open in the long term.

It should be a no brainer really! Spend your hard earned cash in your local shops whenever you can. OK, maybe you have missed a little retail therapy in a shopping mall or large city centre - indulge yourself if you must, but remember that without your custom, local shops will close. If you don’t want to see your town or village denuded of its independent retailers and becoming a ghost town of boarded up shops, you need to spend your money there.

Simples.

So a fiver a week in your local shops, or a decimated local high street. Your choice.

Vintage Rambles a with raFf lake and

This walk originally featured in the magazines back in August 2014. The walk is one of my favourites, which we do quite often. It makes great use of a number of different trails and has a great variety of scenery, not least the views from the ‘Miner’, which is the highest point in Nottinghamshire.

The walk can be adapted, if you want to stick to the trails or if you want to shorten it. To shorten the route just jump from the end of point 5 to point 11, although you will miss out on the Miner!

6-mile circular from Brierly Forest Park A moderate and varied walk for you and your dog. The route should take around 3 hours. The route has a couple of decent inclines and there are stiles to cross. There are a few stretches of road so take care. The terrain is generally very good but as with all walks it depends on the conditions, so a good pair of boots are always advised.

GARDENS

Gardener’s Calendar The temptation to plant your tender bedding out now is great, but really it should be left till the end of the month when the chance of frost has passed. But you can get the plants used to the great outdoors by putting them outside during the day for about a week before plonking them into their permanent garden spot. Make sure the compost or soil is moist when planting.

If you have plants in the greenhouse waiting to go out, make sure they have enough ventilation and space to avoid damping off – basically the collapse of the plant – or mildew. Increase humidity in the greenhouse on hot days with a water spray which will stop spider mites attacking.

r

Fruit trees planted this year need to have their blooms removed, harsh as it may seem, to make sure they establish well and give more fruit in future years.

Keep on top of the weeding. We know weeds are just plants growing where you don’t want them, but they can often be thugs and will certainly be taking moisture and nutrients from your carefully nurtured seedlings.

Top Tip

Forget me nots are beautiful cheerful little spring plants, but they self-seed like mad – fine if you want them everywhere next spring. If not, pull them out, or just leave one of two in strategic spots.

Top nature tip: If trimming hedges or trees, make sure there are no nesting birds in the branches.It is actually illegal, as well as being awful for the birds.
