The Crier online...
Editorial The deadline for the Crier editorial approaches fast. Panic sets in. Surely it’s not that long since we did it, I think. Rummaging through past copies (yes, we still have them, going back to 1984) and I see it was 9 years ago, so maybe it is our turn again. So what to write about? Previously, we’ve described how we came to have peacocks as pets (twice, I believe); we’ve done some local history and then there was our favourite spoof “Plans for the Third London Airport at Cublington have been revived.” Trees to be lopped, the church tower decimated… One former resident had contacted his barrister friend before getting the joke. But we’re older and wiser now, so let’s get serious. I think Grace Gregory had it right last month, “What does September mean to you?” OK, so it’s October now; to me, it’s autumn leaves, longer, cosier evenings, Hallowe’en for the youngsters, and, speaking personally, retirement from a job I loved. I hope some of these are reflected in this month’s Crier. Hey ho, who said it will soon be Christmas? It’s a whole new beginning! Chris Jones

Autumn is the time of year When changes start to happen here.
The days grow short. It’s cold outside. The birds fly south. The squirrels hide. The leaves fall off all the trees. The garden pond begins to freeze.
Another summer’s left behind. It’s winter soon, but I don’t mind. For Autumn is the time when I Begin to dream of PUMPKIN PIE! Ingredients

Sweet pastry case, 22cm 750g pumpkin, boiled and sieved 140g caster sugar .5 tsp salt .5 tsp nutmeg 1tsp cinnamon 2 eggs, beaten 25g butter, melted 175ml milk 1tbs icing sugar
Combine the sugar, salt, nutmeg and half the cinnamon. Mix in the beaten eggs, melted butter and milk, then add to the pumpkin purée and stir to combine. Pour into the tart shell and cook for 10 mins at 220/200C fan, then reduce the temperature to 180C/160C fan. Continue to bake for 35-40 mins until the filling has just set.
PUMPKIN PIE!

Good News… Good News… Good News Confirmation has been received from WREN of a grant for £28,846.76 for the refurbishment of the Biggs Pavilion kitchen at Orchard Ground. Members of the Orchard Ground committee have been working to secure a grant from WREN to replace the kitchen which was installed back in 1998 when the pavilion was built. Many residents contributed to the consultation about a new kitchen and came forward with their ideas. A new kitchen will add greatly to the facilities in the pavilion which is used for many social and community activities and for sports including, cricket, tennis and table tennis. In addition to the grant, Orchard Ground will need to put some £4,000 towards the cost of the kitchen refurbishment. It is hoped that the necessary work will take place in January/ February 2019 and be completed by the end of March. WREN is a not for profit business that awards grants for community, heritage and biodiversity projects from funds donated by FCC Environmental through the Landfill Community Fund.
PLEASE
SPOTTED!
keep your eyes peeled ... If you spot anything, and we really do mean anything of interest (silly or serious) in the village - please let us know.
Spotted - Several theodolites positioned
down the High Street outside Bell Cottage - does anyone know what they were surveying?
Spotted - apparently Chewbacca has
recently been spotted atop the Ivinghoe Beacon - filming for the next Stars Wars installment perhaps?
Spotted - Parkour/Freerunningcomes to Cublington?! Simon Morgan attempts this while painting his house.
Spotted - a very dried up and sad looking
pond. Please can we see if we can restore it to it's former glory? Apparently, I read recently, in the 1800's it was used for washing clothes and watering horses and cattle! Nice!
Spotted - Ambulance and film crew in Silver Street filming for a training video for Bucks Emercency Responders. No one was hurt in the making of the film, though John Eadie starred with a blue nose!
Spotted - A Sparrowhawk feasting on a pigeon on my drive.
Spotted - After news that hedgehog sightings are
down 50% I thought we'd buck that trend. Lovely hedgehogs in our garden. Do you have one or a family perhaps. Bob Paine has several in his garden. Mike Joy reports a mum and baby (are they the same ones perhaps?) The Eadies have a family... One also spotted behind the tennis courts. Any more anyone?
PLEASE let us know of any event in the Village you are running. If we don't know about it we can't help publicise it. By the 15th of every month before please.

Bespoke beer for Florence to launch at 25th Aylesbury Beer Festival 26th-27th October at Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School The Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity has teamed up with the Hillfire Brewing Company to launch a bespoke beer celebrating 25 years of the Aylesbury Beer Festival this October. Hillfire owner Neil Coxhead says this new ale will be extra special because it’s brewed in partnership with Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity using the Brewery’s own hops grown organically in Buckinghamshire.The Festival will take place on Friday 26th and Saturday 27th October, offering real ale fans the chance to try local beers as well as award-winning ales and ciders from further afield, whilst raising vital funds for Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity. As well as over 35 beers, ciders and perries to taste and judge, a new feature this year is the ‘Local Gin Showcase’, with gins made by distilleries within a 25-mile radius of Aylesbury such as Puddingstone Distillery, Griffiths Brothers and Foxdenton Estate. The Festival also features gourmet sausages courtesy of Kings Farm Shop in the Sausage Festival on Saturday afternoon, while local caterer Alena Winter’s homemade classics will be back on Saturday evening to provide some ballast for the alcohol. “Last year we added more music and food, and we had more ales than the previous year,” says Emma Carroll, Community Events Manager at Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity. “This year, by popular demand, we have added the Local Gin Showcase to widen the Festival’s appeal. But real ales remain at the heart of the Festival which makes it an unmissable event for any serious ale drinker.” Tickets are just £6 in advance or £8 on the door and include a souvenir Festival pint glass and programme. To book, and for more information go to www.fnhospice.org.uk/beer-festival or call 01296 429 975.

From the Reverend Dear friends, It's the month we have to yet again change the clocks: back of course ('Fall back' as our American cousins put it). For one I can't see any valid reason why we persist in this now redundant tradition. Because of our geographical location we are always going to have fewer hours of daylight in the late Autumn/Winter/ early Spring and simply have to negotiate around it. I remember in Zimbabwe having to get used to the fact that, whatever time of the year, it was pitch dark between 6/6.15pm . The only difference was the thickness of jumper/jacket you wore as you sat out under the stars by a fire being bitten by all sorts of bug life. October is a very Anglo-Saxon month in the church's calendar: Ethelburga, Wilfred, Edward the Confessor, Alfred the Great to name a few of the more prominent. But,the date which always fascinates me is 31st because it holds within it the classic balance of light and shade. On the one hand it is Halloween with all it's
FR
CU
basically silly stuff around ghosts and ghouls etc... which seems to be developing into a super-hero fest. On the other hand it is the day we remember Martin Luther, the inspirer of the Reformation which changed the face of faith forever. Like all of us Luther was a deeply flawed man but had moments of great brilliance. He was alternately compassionate and vicious and very much a man of his time. His tempestuous personality brought many friends and enemies,probably in equal measure. Our lives are,thankfully,much quieter but we still encounter those who love us and those who don't. The secret is to keep the balance between the flattery of the one and the destructiveness of the other. The one person that Christians believe loves us unconditionally is God our creator and He shows that to us supremely in His Son Jesus Christ. May God Bless you -God bless, Philip. Reverend Philip Derbyshire

Rose hips are showy, look at me, look at me, haws meanwhile hide beside, dull by degree, their deep red outshone by such brilliant hue of their fulsome neighbour, what can they do? If only they knew what we all ought to know
Hips and
Haws
that shining so brightly’s just part of the show. Dull have their story and absolute right to be considered along with the bright. With people also the same it is true, we can’t all be perfect, there’s just me and you; let’s look at the facts and why some are full face but remember that everyone fits in a space. Hedgerows are brimming with good things to eat, hips, haws and blackberries fall at our feet, birds eye them closely with singular needs, winter might be survived with larders like these.
by Denny Bradbury©, our local poet
It takes not a genius nor even the law to tell us again what we’re all here for, like berries we sit on the hedgerows of fate, ripe for the picking whether early or late.

Main Contact: cublingtonpc.clerk@gmail.com Minutes of a meeting of Cublington Parish Council held on 11th September 2018 in Village Hall at 7.30pm Present: Cllr H Vale (Chairman) Cllr G Antosiewicz Cllr J Merriman Cllr S Morgan Cllr M Reilly In attendance: Mr M Joy (Clerk) and two members of the public 1. Apologies None
2. Minutes of last meeting
The minutes of the last meeting held on 10th July 2018 were discussed by the meeting and duly signed by the Chairman.
3. Reports Neighbourhood Policing Team
Reports are posted regularly on the Cublington website http://www.cublington.com/
Aylesbury Vale District Council and Buckinghamshire County Council (Cllr Netta Glover) Children's Services Financial pressures in Children's Services continue. One of the main causes is the increase in 'Looked after Children' (LAC). A few years ago there were about 350 children who needed looking after. This number has risen to almost 500. The very significant average cost of each individual child has brought about a significant unplanned expenditure. There are weekly reviews to see where additional savings can be made. Clearly, we must ensure that vulnerable children remain safe. Buckinghamshire is not alone in experiencing these pressures and you may have seen the considerable press coverage of the large overspend by many county councils on Children's Services. Importantly, we are about to commence the new round of consultation on 'Early help'. It is important that this system is reformed to help the vulnerable communities and achieve the targeted savings.
Adult Social Care 'Green Papers'
Another major area of financial pressure this year remains Adult Social Care. Again, this is a national problem. The Government had committed to a Green Paper on Social Care reform. This was originally due in 2017. It was then delayed into early 2018. More recently it has been further delayed. The reason for the delay is unclear but it probably reflects the complexity of the issue and the difficulty of finding easy solutions
HWRCs
The County Council has now started the consultation on reductions to opening hours and sites for HWRCs. This will not be an easy to resolve but seriously we need to save something like ÂŁ1 million on the sites.
The new National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF)
Just before the summer recess the Government issued the long awaited revised NPPF. Whilst our District colleagues are of course the local planning authorities, the implications of this revised policy will have major implications for BCC. The main immediate consequence will be that there will be a much higher 'de facto' housing target across Buckinghamshire. Each District will be effectively required to use a common methodology for assessing
new 'housing need' that will give, in most cases, a much higher number. Whilst existing proposed Local Plans may go through with current numbers, any new Plans will have to use the new methodology. Officers are currently calculating what these new numbers may be for the whole of Bucks, but they are likely to be near 100,000 for the period until 2050. There is nevertheless Government pressure for Bucks to deliver many more! From a county council point of view this will place major new demands on key infrastructure and services such as roads, schools, social services and green spaces.
The Growth Agenda
Whilst the new NPPF will be a common methodology across the country, it is weighted to require more housing in areas of 'high demand' such as Bucks. In addition, we are now under major pressure from Civil Servants to commit to an uplift in the numbers still further, with proposals of 120% or 130% of the new housing numbers being proposed. The Chief Executive and Leader of BCC will be meeting with key District colleagues to see if we can agree a common position on Government demands.
Fracking/Shale gas
Many of you will have received copies of the national 'write in' campaign on Shale gas/ Fracking over the past six weeks. As previously advised I am not aware of any viable Shale gas in Bucks and we have no Group policy on fracking.
AVDC
I am pleased to report that relations with AVDC have improved very significantly over the summer and both organisations are committed to working together on Town Centre regeneration and the Garden Town initiative
Universal Credit
We want to ensure that our residents who claim benefits are fully prepared if they are required to claim Universal Credit, so we have created a number of leaflets to help further inform them of this change and how they need to manage it, with one specifically designed for Landlords to help inform them how UC will affect them and the support available to them. These leaflets will be distributed throughout the Vale and are also available on our dedicated UC webpage www.aylesburyvaledc.gov.uk/universalcredit You will notice that we will also be spreading this message via our social media channels and we kindly ask you to please share this content amongst your followers to help us further spread this message. For further information on UC we suggest visiting www. gov.uk/universal-credit
WWW1 Veterans’ Descendants
A former High Sheriff would like to invite World War One veterans to join her at a special Afternoon Tea Party to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of the Great War and to celebrate the men and women who fought so bravely. Amanda Nicholson is holding the event at Halton House on Monday 8th October from 4.30pm to 7pm WW1 Veterans: A former Buckinghamshire High Sheriff is calling all first generation descendants and would like to hear from anyone living in Buckinghamshire or the surrounding area with a parent who served and survived WWI. Let me know if anyone would like to attend and I will send full details. Nglover@buckscc.gov.uk

4. Accounts 4.1 The following invoices were passed for payment since the last meeting: Clerk Salary:

Mr Joy to complete.
5. Orchard Ground Report & North Field Project Update, incl. CIO status
Cllr Reilly gave an update on OG.A Wren grant of £28,846 had been awarded for the refurbishment of the kitchen. Another Cinema event is planned because the outdoor event had been affected by the weather. Charitable status and possible transfer of assets: Mr Joy reported OG were obtaining a legal consultation arranged by Buckinghamshire Community Impact concerning the constitution for the proposed charity with the aim of preparing a draft constitution for the PC to review prior to moving any assets. The PC will need to have its lawyers review the documentation. The target date for the transfer of asset is October 2019. Mr Joy covered the points that needed action from the previous meeting . The original gift of the land from Alice Biggs had no restrictions on it. Mr Joy thought there would be no Capital Gains Tax arising on the gift as local authorities are exempt by virtue of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 S271(s). The PC will need written confirmation on this point from a third party before any transfer . The point concerning stamp duty land tax was outstanding, and it was agreed Mr Joy should approach our lawyers to determine whether the transfer would be exempt.
6. Planning Permissions
18/02763/APP – 13 Silver Street – part single storey front extension. No objection 18/02575/APP Old Manor Farm Removal of conservatory ,replacement and alterations to external windows and doors, internal alterations and part replacement of gutters and downpipes. No objection. 18/02453/APP Lakeside Business Units -formation of new vehicular access (retrospective). This planning permission was objected to for the following reasons : 1. The existing business units (B1) were permitted under application ref . 00/02755/APP only on the condition that access should be via access associated with the fishing lakes. 2. The access being used by the business units is for agricultural purposes and not commercial. This would allow for occasional use only. 3. The Highway Authority have submitted a letter dated 31 July 2018 presenting points which conclude the proposed development would be detrimental to highway safety for Wing Road and Reads Lane. We concur with their comments and conclusion .
Mr Joy was asked to contact the planning officer to determine the next stage of the planning process.
7. Village Matters 7.1 Traffic Calming:
Approval has been accepted for the feasibility report for a roundabout. The report and recommendations will be presented to the village as and when it is completed. A meeting with Matt Whincup, Local Area Technician, Transport for Buckinghamshire is being arranged. 7.2 Street Lighting: Two broken lights should be replaced within the next ten days.
7.3 Speed watch
Training for the use of the equipment is being arranged. There will be a need for the equipment to be insured for £5,000 to cover any damage. The renewal of the maintenance contract covering the Sentinel sign was approved at £220 + vat.
7.4 Thames Water , stiles etc
The broken playground and 30 mph signs, together with two stiles, have been reported to Transport for Bucks and have been scheduled for replacement. Mr Joy pointed out these matters had been reported on FixMyStreet website and the reports concerning the stiles had been closed as ‘complete’ by TfB. He had checked the stiles which have not been repaired. He has reported this error to TfB via FixMyStreet. AVDC road sign on the High Street is awaiting replacement. The playground and 30mph signs were reported in February and the work was still outstanding, and it is not possible to find out when this work is scheduled for. Thames Water had been in contact with Mr Joy concerning the occasional blockage of the sewage pipes at Chapel Alley and Silver Street. Thames Water stated it would not replace the pipes because blockages caused by abnormal weather conditions were outside of their control, and as such it was not their responsibility. The pipes would be replaced if there were environmental health issues. This would require a report to be produced by the Environmental Health Authorities stating there were risks to public health. It was suggested the next time there is a flooding the Environmental Health Authorities are contacted, and a report requested, and Thames Water notified accordingly. Mr Joy to contact the local resident who originated the matter.
7.5 Grant Application for Armistice Remembrance
We have been awarded two Perspex glass and bench size silhouettes which should be delivered sometime in September. Mr Joy to send out a timetable for the 11th November memorial and the Council to coordinate the event.
7.6 Pond
The trees need to be cut back, and a meeting is to be arranged with a contractor to discuss the matter. Whilst the pond is empty it is an opportunity to dig it out to get rid of the algae. Once the work has been completed we can contact a specialist to discover what is causing the pond not to fill up with water. Cllr G Antosiewicz offered to contact a specialist in this field .
8. Best Kept Village
The results for the best kept village have been published on the village website http://www.cublington.com/ Weedon won the best village in our category. The councillors were disappointed with our ratings.
The next meeting of the Parish Council will take place on Tuesday, 13th November 2018 at 7.30pm in the Village Hall
The Aston Abbotts & Cublington Ladies Club

Best Kept Village Competition 2018, The Gurney Cup Judges’ comments for Cublington The church graveyard is very well maintained – including some of the old, unremembered graves – and is in keeping with the nearby conservation area. The Unicorn pub over the road looked attractive with its flower baskets. The cricket field was in excellent condition and an asset to community life; the area close to the green shed could have been tidier. The children’s playground could not be faulted. There is perhaps scope for creating a managed wildlife area on the slope behind the cricket pavilion. The Village Hall looked in good condition and its surroundings neat and litter free. We liked the imaginative ‘Cublington Nursery’ notice and the village sign. The notice board gave details of local events but we didn’t see a ‘Best Kept Village’ notice. The other notice board, in Bell Close, appeared to have been the subject of vandalism since there was nothing on it but a few scraps of torn paper. Had we arrived on an unfortunate day? The hedge on the north side of the High Street leading to the crossroads was overgrown at the time of our visit, limiting safe use of the narrow footpath. This needs attention as the path is presumably used by schoolchildren. The pond at the crossroads would benefit from sensitive planting along its edges, particularly where it faces the road. This would not only enhance its appearance but would make it safer, as it presents a potential hazard to careless walkers. (Incidentally, your map highlighted the wrong pond!) Generally, the village presents a pleasant and attractive impression and shows good evidence of community effort.
Well done everyone - a better mark than last year (76) - and some pointers to help us improve even more for next year! A litterpick at the end of May perhaps, keeping the High Street hedge neat and tidy? Some work on the pond - hopefully it will have water in it next year!
