Letter From The Editor
Go Local!
Welcome to our November issue Editor Mick Scott
Dear Neighbours,
Telephone 01439 788008 Email enquiries info@yo62go.co.uk Web: www.yo62go.co.uk Facebook: www.facebook.com/GoLocalMag Address The Forge, Cawton Road, Gilling East, N. Yorks YO62 4JG December copy deadline :
I have some important news to impart this month. Firstly, that the December issue will be my last one as I am retiring. Yes, I realise that with my baby-faced good looks most people think I’m still in my early thirties but the truth is you have to double that. I’ve been producing Go Local for over ten years and I have to say I’ve enjoyed almost every minute of it. I say almost because of those times when I have to send the magazine off to print and I’m still waiting for someone’s advert! The other bit of news is not so good, however, in that no-one has stepped up to the plate to take over the magazine and keep it running. I’ve had lots of interest, some of it getting to quite late stages in negotiations, but no-one so far has quite taken the plunge. So, if you’re reading this and think you might be interested, or know someone else who might be, please get in touch and I’ll be glad to help as much as I can. Otherwise, sadly, the December issue will be the last.
Go Local! is delivered free every month to homes in:
On a brighter note, one of the joys to me of moving into this area in 2005 has been the old dialect. I’m sure I remember telling you that when I first met my wife’s parents I couldn’t understand half of what they said, but I think I’ve got the hang of it now. So, for the last time from me, there’s a dialect story from Goodies, a book you should all have on your shelves.

We always know when the harvesting has started, as the cat starts bringing mice into the house. This month, Andy Baxter tells his own story about mice and the joys of living in a wooden building. There’s a great recipe this month, Chilli Bean Nachos, especially recommended for teenagers! Pippa Greenwood tells us where to find firework flowers and there’s a nice crossword and sudoku to round it all off.

A Lark Here’s another instalment from the Yorkshire dialect book, “Goodies”, printed sometime around the time of the first World War. The stories in the book are transcribed from meetings with “the natives of N.E. Yorkshire” and they are “illustrative of their harmless and often unconscious humour”. This one’s about turning the tables on a farmer and his savage dog.
A
h ad a lark yisterdah, by Lad! Me faather were gahin te Pickering te see t’ farrier aboot yon coo o’ oors at’s badly, an Ah were gahin wiv im. An ee telled meh i’ t’ moornin at Ah were te fetch t’ gallowah in fre t’ paddock afoor dinner soomtahme, ee were gahin te drahve. An Ah gans oot bod-nestin a bit i’ t’ forenoon, an Ah sees a throstle nest iv a young esh tree i’ Tommy Ossler’s edge, atwixt Rimmer’s coo pasture an is. See Ah gans oopp this ere tree, an Ah were set on a graan lukin aboot - there warnt nowt i’ t’ nest, t’ bods adn’t finished er - an oard Tommy com oopp. An ee says, “What’s tha deein there? thoo young varmint! Coomm doon oot o’ that there tree this minute, brekkin mah edges doon. Coomm doon,” ee says. Ee was as ranty as a cat iv a trap. Ee ad is dog wiv im an all; that there savage bobtaal shippert dog, yer knaw. An Ah says, “Ah sahn’t coomm doon, not wharl thoo’s there wi that there denged dog o’ tharn.” “Wer’ll see aboot that,” ee says. An ee got odden t’ tree booal an shak it. Bud Ah odded fasst. An then ee says, “Ah’ll gan an get me goonn an Ah’ll shoott tha doon; thoo porky yoong waastril!”
An ee telled t’ dog te watch meh. Ee knawed Ah were flaad o’ t’ dog, becos t’ dog ad odden me beeat yance afoor iv is staggath, when Ah was getten mesen a tonnup. An awaah ee gans for t’ goonn. Weel, Ah waats warl ee gets oot o’ seet, an then Ah begins te cooax t’ dog. Call im a good feller, bonny Bob, an sike like. Bud ee nobbut snarled at meh, an scratted wiv is ind legs. Awivver, Ah ad a bit o’ pooff i’ me pockit, see Ah breks a bit on it off an swaals it doon tiv im, an ee snapped it oopp an luked for soomm mare. An Ah swaals im anoother bit, but Ah swaals it te t’ other sahde o’ t’ edge, d’yer see? An afoor t’ dog ad getten issen rammled throoff t’ edge, Ah parzeled doon t’ tree an were off oopp t’ field. An then t’ denged dog tak after meh, an Ah thowt ee were gahin te worry meh, fosst when Ah seed im coommin, bud ee nobbut axed for a bit

The Wild Side of Life a sideways look at nature by Andy Baxter
Field mice. Cute, but extremely annoying!
I
t feels like we’ve had a plague of mice in our house. At around the same time each year when the crops are brought in and the fields are cultivated we get the lightest pitter-patter of tiny feet and a seemingly continuous scratch, scratch, scratch coming from the roof. As our bedroom is elevated right into the roof space and the sounds generally start at around 10pm and finish at dawn it can, to say the least, get a little frustrating. I’ve spent a long time trying to work out how the heck they get in but now having solved that problem, I realise it wasn’t really that hard in the first place. We have a timber frame construction and, on the outer edge where the timber joins to the foundations it turns out there is a 10-15mm ‘air-gap’ right around the foot. Ample room for a mouse to take up residence. What took me a little while to realise was that, while I had to maintain the airgap to avoid condensation issues, the answer to my problem would lay in steel. I doubt it’s the steel that has
been produced up at Redcar but I did get some strange looks buying 14 packets of coarse steel wool rolls from Wickes the other day. I’m a little concerned the CCTV will also have witnessed me unrolling a packet on the warehouse floor and measuring its length too… 3.5m a pack, nearly 50m needed… Anyway, after a long and comprehensive session shoving and pushing the stuff into the gaps, the trapping of the mice began. With just one ‘live-trap’ still in working condition I discovered that cucumber (the only thing left wasted after tea) is a rubbish bait. I moved up to red pepper the next day and had no luck again, but perhaps surprisingly, mature cheddar cheese was also ineffective. Despite protestations from the kids that it would be a waste, Nutella chocolate spread proved irresistible. Quite how the mice that were now (presumably) trapped in the house got out of the roof space and into
the (apparently sealed) loft space I do not know but four field mice later we seem to have dealt with the issue. Not a murmur since and back to sleeping soundly again at night.. Until last night, that is. At around three in the morning I heard what I could only describe as the mother of all scratching footsteps walking along the rooftop outside. Clearly this was comeuppance and the world’s biggest mouse was coming for revenge on the evil human who had deported its siblings! It made its way from one end to the other and back again before settling down right above our bedroom window. Having read all about arboreal rats entering houses via trees and gutters I was now worried. I must, however, apologise to my neighbours as, when the noise eventually stopped and I heard the unmistakable twit-twoo of an owl I have to admit that banging the ceiling and shouting ‘It’s too bloomin’ late!’ probably woke everyone else up too. Life in the sticks, eh?

Gardening!
Garden Fireworks by Pippa Greenwood You may be planning a traditional display of fireworks on November 5th, but why not also think ahead and plant yourself a few garden fireworks? At this time of year, there are still several stunning flowers that remind me of fireworks, such as the flamboyant red hot pokers or kniphofias, also known as torch lilies. Kniphofia ‘Brimstone’ has a rich yellowy-orange colour while the smaller ‘Little Maid’ has ivory-yellow flower spikes and reaches a height of about 2 ft (60cm). ‘Fiery Fred’ has blazing orangey-red flowers, while those of ‘Alcazar’ are bright red. Available in garden centres now, they do well if planted out in early autumn or spring in a sunny spot with a well drained soil. Once established you will have a regular display that really will go off like a rocket! Crocosmias help provide colour at this time of year, so take a look at ‘Lucifer’, with its flame-red, almost trumpetshaped flowers clustered along an elegantly arching spike, or for golden yellow flowers consider ‘Canary Bird’. The
many varieties of crocosmia thrive in sun or part shade in a well drained yet also moist soil. Pot-grown plants should be available for planting now or in the spring, or you can buy the corms to plant towards the end of winter; these plants will look like the ultimate elegant arching firework. If fireworks like star clusters are more your scene, think about sedums or ice plants, many of which have star-shaped flowers. Some of the sedums, such as ‘Autumn Joy’, are still just about in flower, but plant pot-grown specimens now and from late summer you will have a tremendous show of blooms for several weeks, certain to attract bees and butterflies. The angels’ fishing rods, diorama, have arching stems in great numbers surrounded by broad, almost grass-like leaves, each measuring up to 5 ft (1.5m) in length. The rich pink funnel-shaped flowers dangle and sway in the wind and keep on bobbing straight back up again, even on a windy site. Consider growing some lupins for summer, either a yellow
variety or ‘My Castle’, which has rich red flowers - just like a rocket racing skywards, but far less noisy. If you want a tree but space is limited, the Kilmarnock willow, Salix caprea ‘Kilmarnock’, is a good option, reaching a height of about 6 ft (1.8 m) after 10 or 15 years. It has long weeping branches and bright yellow fuzzy catkins in spring, far better than any real Roman candle I know! Look around nearby gardens to see what a fantastic display autumn foliage can put on, then plant anything with good autumn colour to guarantee a glowing bonfire every autumn. Your garden centre should have a plentiful supply of shrubs and trees at this time of year. Finally, if you are having a bonfire, make it at the last minute to minimise the risk of hedgehogs or other wildlife hiding beneath the heap coming to an untimely end. The hedgehog is one of the gardener’s best friends, as it eats huge numbers of slugs and many other garden pests.
