Dear Neighbours, I was given a call after the March edition went out last year to say that I shouldn’t use the term Mothers Day as the correct name is Mothering Sunday. This year, before going any further, I thought I’d delve a little deeper. Traditionally, Mothering Sunday originated in the seventeenth-century and was the occasion when English children who had gone to work as apprentices and domestic servants were given a day off to visit their mothers and families. By the nineteenth century, the holiday was dying out, and by the 1930s the keeping of many of the old Mothering Sunday customs had lapsed in many English parishes. Mother’s Day was an American innovation in 1913 and was introduced to the UK during the Second World War, when American servicemen were stationed here and it appears to be this that revitalised our original celebration. Just to add to the confusion Mothering Sunday was also called Refreshment Sunday, because the fasting rules for Lent were relaxed that day. However, it does look as if Mothers Day now has the upper hand in common parlance. Anyway, whether you want to call it Mothering Sunday or Mothers Day, it’s on March 10th this year, so don’t forget to give your mum a treat!

Also in March, we traditionally expect to see the first of the mad March hares bouncing around the countryside and with this in mind I teamed up with Andy Baxter to bring you an article explaining their strange behaviour and the effect it has on the rest of us.

On page 26 there’s an article about a very worthy cause, the Ryedale Talking Magazine, a free service for blind or partially-sighted folk, which I thought deserved to be shouted about. Details of how to get a copy are in the article and also on the Local Talk page.

In her gardening article this month Rosie Allisstone focuses on the wood anenome, a delightful plant that thrives in light shade and fills in gaps before later perennials take the stage. You always know when spring is springing when you see these under the trees!

THE MAD MARCH HARE “The March Hare will be much the most interesting, and perhaps as this is May it won’t be raving mad — at least not so mad as it was in March.” (Lewis Carroll, from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland)

W

e’ve all heard the phrase “as mad as a March hare” but why hare’s rather than any other animal?

March madness has long been associated with the increased activity of animals at the start of the spring season. At this time of the year most living things are coming out of winter hibernation of one sort or another looking for a mate and they often display very bizarre courtship displays, the most common and striking of which is that of the hare. The bizarre behaviour of the hare in spring time, standing up on hind legs and carrying out boxing displays has captured the imaginations of writers and inspired many folklore tales.

Brown hares represent the Lepus family in most of the UK and March will be the time that is best to see them! Mad March Hares will be out boxing as soon as the frosty weather clears up. For once it is not the glamorous process of males fighting for dominance and earning the right to be classified as the strongest, but females getting, frankly, annoyed with the attention of males who have a ‘spring’ in their step!

Unlike rabbits, hares spend all their lives above ground. Young leverets are born wherever their parents create a ‘scrape’ in the ground and there’s nowhere that the animals might call home. While they might remain in the same locality, home will be behind a tussock of grass, in the edge of brambles or in a depression or furrow. By lying absolutely flat in a field they have an almost magical ability to disappear.

The amorous intentions of the males result in females literally defending themselves and punching their male counterparts whilst

leaping around on their powerful hind legs attempting to escape. If they turn their back, however….. so they constantly return to face their suitor head on and end up boxing round and round in circles. As Hares often have up to four litters of young a year, why boxing only occurs in March is anybody’s guess!

This behaviour is not just limited to hares, of course. All sorts of animals are getting a bit frisky at this time of year but it is the hare that has been singled out for its displays of boxing and leaping. Oddly enough, the words Marsh and March can, in fact, be used almost interchangeably as hares quite commonly live on marshy land.

The first recorded mention of their apparently mad activity comes from around 1500, in a poem called Blowbol’s Test. “Then they begin to swerve and to stare, And be as brainless as a March hare.” The phrase ‘hare brained’ also refers to the same behaviour.

In 1529, Sir Thomas More’s ‘The Supplication of Souls” includes the phrase “As mad not as continued on page 12

12 a march hare, but as a madde dogge”, which suggests that the term was already in general use.

trying to impress the young ladies. Luckily for us men we’re not often faced with such violent behaviour from the young ladies of our fancy!

The most famous story to feature the March Hare must be Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, where the hatter and the hare entertain Alice at their tea party. Although neither character is called “mad” in the book, the phrase “Mad Hatter’s Tea Party” is commonly applied. It is thought now that some hatters suffered from dementia, caused by the use of mercury in the manufacture of felt, which was used to make hats. Sir John Tenniel’s illustration shows the March Hare with straw on his head, a common way to depict madness in Victorian times.

And finally, while it is generally true that you need to travel to places like Africa, Canada or India to see creatures that have been described as “charismatic”, perhaps the hare also deserves a good look? While the tortoise might be able (mythically) to beat the hare in a race, a mammal in the British countryside that has been clocked running at 45mph has to be impressive in anyone’s book. The Hare. Watch out for one boxing in a field near you this March.

Us humans also generally get more active in spring time. This would have been more so in times gone by, before the invention of electric lights, when the lighter evenings would have seen more people outside. Young men at the time, not unlike the hares, would have been out

A PERMANENT SOLUTION TO UNWANTED HAIR Unwanted hair can cause much distress, as anyone who has suffered with it will understand, and often brings with it a sense of isolation and a loss of self-esteem.

“It controls my life, I can’t be spontaneous because I’m always worrying about what people will think” - Anonymous What is Electrolysis?

Electrolysis, also known as Electrical Epilation, involves the insertion of a very fine probe (about the size of an eyelash) into the hair follicle, and does not pierce the skin. Heat is passed through the probe to seal off the blood supply to the hair, the hair is then removed.

Expert Electrologist, Rachael Thompson of About Beauty explains “Most hairs will need more than one treatment, but there will be a constant, gradual decrease in the growth of the hair until it has all been permanently removed.”

Rachael goes on to explain, “The amount of treatment required to achieve permanent removal of all the hairs differs with each person.”

Electrolysis can boost self-esteem and increase confidence for those suffering with unwanted hair.

Electrolysis is the ONLY method of hair removal to be considered permanent and the only method legally allowed to claim that distinction. It is also the only method that can work for all hair and skin types and colours, and on all areas of the face and body.

“I had treatment on my upper lip and I am now completely hair free and have been for years. Electrolysis works, try it – I did and I have never looked back” - Anon.

Rachael adds, “as an Electrologist, I am privileged to witness the dramatic transformation in my clients once treatment is underway and results become apparent”.

Viva Hair is celebrating two anniversaries!

Firstly, 30 years in business. Country Style, which later became SILKS hair design, was started in March 1983 by 19 year old Mandy Silk. The business went from strength to strength, with a succession of good staff and a very loyal local customer base.

Then came Viva hair of Barkers Yard, Helmsley. Silks was revamped and re branded in April 2012, moved into a purpose built salon in Barkers Yard and VIVA HAIR was born.

Mandy and Jake Duncombe celebrate the opening of Viva

After 30 years in the business Mandy is still loving the job and meeting people.

Every day is different and the move to Barkers yard has been a huge success.

Thank you Helmsley!

For more details call 01439 770325 or visit our web site www.vivahairofhelmsley.co.uk.

The Talk of Ryedale!

I

was intrigued recently to receive an email asking me to advertise another magazine on my Local Talk page. After the initial shock had worn off - imagine a competitor wanting a free advert with me! - I read it again and realised that it was on behalf of a very worthwhile venture indeed.

The Ryedale Talking Magazine is a small charity based in Pickering and was founded in 1981 by a small group of people who wanted to help the blind and partially sighted in their area. With the permission of the Charity Commission, they have since been able to extend their service to all residents of Ryedale and surrounding areas.

The recording sessions, held at the home of one of They provide a free monthly 90-minute magazine the readers, are very sociable occasions with lots (not a Talking Newspaper!) recorded on tape and of chat, coffee and biscuits. They also meet 3 times CD for anyone who finds reading either a strain a year to record a newspaper for the Scarborough or impossible. The items are chosen by them Carers’ Resource. from magazines and books or often written by our readers themselves about holidays, personal Recording sessions are on the first Thursday of experiences, poems etc. The magazine is sent out each month, after which the editor, Peter Rickard, to individuals as well as residential homes and the produces the magazine. He says that it’s a good feedback they receive back is very positive. They day’s work from start to finish, making sure that the also have contact with the Alzheimer Society as sound volume from each reading is normalised, the recordings are as each reader has a different pitch “Thank you for sending often suitable for their and volume. As Valerie says, “Those members. the Talking Magazine which I do of us who are retired teachers do appreciate and enjoy listening tend to speak more loudly!” Peter Valerie Bulidon, who to. My wife and I are from then decides on the order of items sent me the original ensuring that there is variety and also Thornton le Dale and so enjoy email, says, “We have male/female voices. He then decides items about the area” a team of about 20 on suitable links to each item. volunteers, coming from as far afield as Helmsley, Malton/Norton, Originally, they were only able to record onto tape Ebberston and all places in between.

Lemon Chicken with Tabbouleh Ready in 45 minutes

Serves 4

This is a great way to turn simple and very economical chicken portions into a delicious Mediterranean-style supper. If you have time, make the tabbouleh a few hours in advance to let the flavours fully develop.

Ingredients: • 1 lemon, thinly sliced • 4 large chicken thigh portions (or 8 small thigh portions) • 4 tbsp olive oil • 3 tbsp lemon juice • 2 tbsp clear honey, warmed • 225g bulgar wheat (see tip) • ½ cucumber, finely diced • 4 spring onions, trimmed and finely chopped • 2 tbsp fresh chopped mint • 2 tbsp fresh chopped coriander • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Tip: Bulgar wheat is a type of wheat grain that has been parboiled, dried then finely crushed. It is similar to couscous but has more texture and bite. You’ll find it in most large supermarkets or health food shops.

Preheat the oven to 190C, 375F, Gas 5. Push a lemon slice under the skin of each chicken thigh. Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a frying pan and fry the chicken over a medium-high heat until golden brown all over. Transfer to a shallow roasting tin and arrange the rest of the lemon slices around the chicken.

Mix together 1 tbsp of the lemon juice with the honey and pour over the chicken. Roast for 20-25 minutes until cooked through.

Meanwhile, place the bulgar wheat into a bowl and pour over enough boiling water to cover. Leave for 30 minutes until grains are soft. Stir well and drain off any excess water.

Stir in the rest of the olive oil and lemon juice and season with plenty of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the cucumber, spring onions, mint and coriander and mix well. Serve the hot roast chicken on the tabbouleh with any juices from the roasting tin poured over.

Marching into Spring!

by Rosie Allisstone

M

arch marks the turning point of the year. Days are getting longer, new shoots fairly burst from the ground and colour floods back into the garden.

Although trees are yet to unfurl their tight buds, early flowering shrubs, alpines and spring bulbs bloom in vibrant shades under spring sunshine.

One of the most striking things about spring flowers is how they form great carpets of colour in woodland and meadows. Only think of the gentle tapestries of wood anenomes laid out in shades of white among trees, or the ‘host of golden daffodils’ as Wordsworth puts it, ‘continuous as the stars that shine and twinkle on the Milky Way’; then the seas of bluebells that come later.

Wood anenomes (Anenome nemerosa) are found throughout northern Europe, in grassland and woodland, and have been cultivated for over 400 years. There are many varieties to choose from, and colours vary from purest white, such as ‘Wilks’s White’ or ‘Lychette’ which has finely cut foliage, to lavender blues such as ‘Allenii’, which is one of the oldest, most popular varieties. ‘Flora Pleno’ has double white flowers, and there are many shades of pink in wood anemones, such as ‘Kentish Pink’ or ‘Westwell Pink’ which is darker with long lasting flowers.

Wood anemones are easy to grow, but do need shade from spring to summer. This is why they work so well between deciduous shrubs and under tree canopies. They form a dense mat of root rhizomes, excellent at preventing w e e d invasion, and can be planted to flower through the crowns of later flowering perennials such as peonies, hostas and ferns. These can themselves provide shade and extend the flowering season. Or anemones grown among other spring perennials, such as the white or pink Trillium rivale, the delicate lily-like Erythronium, Corydalis with its blue or yellow mass of flowers, Cyclamen or blue Pulmonaria. A mixture of all or some of these, creates a beautiful, textured pattern of colour that lasts into late spring.

If you want to ‘frame’ all this beauty, try adding a spring magnolia as a back drop, or a Corylopisis, which is a small tree that has bell like flowers, yellow and fragrant in spring. Alternatively, if you have a nearby wall or convenient old tree, a spring clematis such as a Clematis alpina or Clematis Montana scrambling up completes the scene.
