septemBer/octoBer 2016 edition 300

Peter and Jane Waterson enjoying an ice cream at the Horticultural Show.

news from the parish Edition 300!! We made it! It’s been enjoyable looking through the past editions, and I’ve transcribed a few highlights on page 5. It’s good to see so many family names that are still familiar in the village.

The Horticultural Show was a great success this year and despite a very soggy start to the weekend was spared the rain. There is a rundown of all the winners on pages 2 and 3. on Tuesday 18th october, Lewknor School will be celebrating it’s 180th anniversary with the children attending that day in Victorian dress. Cue desperate looking parents scouring Amazon and Ebay for suitable outfits. In my day we would have worn a

pillowcase and a tea towel on our head...or was that Christmas?

The school is also having an open morning for prospective parents on Wednesday 2nd November, so if you are new to the Parish and are looking for a fantastic school, then pop along between 9.30 and 11am to have a look round.

Th at’s all from me this edition...see you next month!

After all the rain on Saturday, what a lovely .day we had for the Horticultural Show on Sunday! There were lots of entries into the show and some gorgeous cakes, fruit and veg to auction off afterwards. Everyone had a good time on the games that were dotted around on the field and the children especially enjoyed the bouncy castles.

Well done everyone!

Results for garden competition:

The event raised a massive ÂŁ1930 which will be split between the hall, Lewknor Primary School, Krakatoa and the Church. Thank you to everyone who came and supported us, and to those who helped put it all together, (and take it apart afterwards!)

Rosemary and I did a tour of the village in August looking at all the lovely gardens in the village.

There is obviously a lot of hard work going on and it lovely to see so many in the village making such a huge effort! It was quite difficult to choose the winners but these are the ones that stood out above the rest.

Alabaster Cup Best large garden Mr and Mrs Dulake, Lewknor A beautiful garden with lots of secret places, and lots of different shrubs and flowers.

Highly commended Christine and Tony Smith, Lewknor A lovely well designed garden which leads the visitor right through to the end. A real cottage garden with lots of plants and vegetables.

THE GRAPEVINE sept/oct 2016 Trotman Cup Best small garden Helen Rowley, Postcombe A stunning small garden absolutely packed with plants and shrubs, on the ground and growing up the walls creating a lovely peaceful atmosphere.

Highly commended Julie Gordon, Lewknor A lovely peaceful and private space with lots of plants and vegetables Carol and Nigel Denham, Lewknor A stunning display of summer bedding.

The Rose Bowl Baskets and planters Barbara Scott, Lewknor Stunning baskets and planters in front and behind the house. A fantastic display as you come into the village.

Highly commended Ray and Rosemary, Lewknor Lovely baskets and window boxes.

Desborough Cup vegetables Alex Hinckley, Lewknor Beautiful vegetables. Made us feel quite hungry!

Barbara Mullins cup for Best Wildlife Garden Tara and Ian Hargrove, Lewknor A stunning space full of birds and insects, and lots of waterlife too! I have never seen so many swallows in one place and the garden was full of birdsong and insect noise.

PARISH council news m40 re-surfacing roadworks As the roadworks have started northbound on the M40 there is a site you can visit to check when closures will be put in place overnight.

England have not taken the opportunity to include the road within our parish to fully re-surface.

When this became apparent the M40 Chiltern Environmental Group contacted our MP and in turn Andrew Jones MP at the Department Of Transport to find out why not only Postcombe but the Lewknor/Aston Rowant stretch was being ignored. By just doing an extra half mile, 83 houses in Postcombe would benefit from a quieter surface and extending further down to Junction 6 would stop them having to spend large amounts in the future.

Highway England’s response is continually that they, ‘only resurface where the carriageway has reached the end of it’s life - for a maintenance need and not to reduce noise’. So please, if you feel strongly about this, write or email letters to: John Howell MP House Of Commons London SW1A 0AA john.howell.mp@parliament.uk andrew.jones.mp@parliament.uk john.hayes.mp@parliament.uk Highway’s England is appointed by the Government, so they are choosing where our ta xes are being spent. It’s clear that noise pollution doesn’t matter to them, even if it blights thousands of residents along major motor ways!

BOOK CLUB at lewknoR arthur And Emily

Doris Lessing

We don’t read a novel by a Nobel Prize winner very often so we were looking forward to Arthur and Emily, one of Doris Lessing’s last novels written in 2008 a year after she was awarded the prize. The result was more disappointing than we expected.

The novel is in two parts; the conceit of the first part is that Lessing has written the story of her parents’ lives as if the First World War had never happened and as Lessing imagines they might have developed as a result. Arthur, her father, becomes a successful farmer and family man staying in Essex while her mother, Emily, does not marry Arthur but trains as a nurse , marrying a doctor and ending up organising a charity providing schools in disadvantaged areas in England.

The second part of the book is then a memoir of their actual lives where her father, a damaged and disappointed man as a result of losing his leg in WW1, is never able to have the career he wanted in the Services but instead, takes his wife to Southern Rhodesia hoping to become a successful farmer there when the Rhodesian Government gave plots of land to be developed by (white) immigrants.

However, the land was poor and he was only just able to support his family.

Doris and her brother led an isolated life in a scattered white community. Doris sought refuge in reading encouraged by her father but her relationship with her mother was difficult and never improved. Her mother was a disappointed woman who had expected a glamorous social life in Africa but which never materialised. To her credit, however, she had turned to and built the family home and just about managing to feed and cloth them all on a very restricted budget..

4

While Doris becomes a successful author throughout her life relationships with her own children and others were difficult as she prioritised her own needs before anyone else’s. The reader is left feeling, therefore, that despite all the accolades which she received for her writing Lessing was not a happy person.

One has to wonder if she would perhaps have liked to write a different version of her own life as she has done for her parents. Lessing’s imagined lives for them are far less interesting, however, than their actual ones.

Our next book was a Place Called Winter by Patrick Gale. This was set mainly in Canada in the early part of the 20th century when pioneers from around the world ventured to develop the virgin land as farmers. In retrospect this echoed Arthur’s struggles in Rhodesia in the previous book but the set of characters and the writing are of a completely different order. Harry, an Englishman, is forced to leave his wife and child and his comfortable genteel middle class life to escape a scandal of his own making which could wreck the reputation of his family and their relatives. Totally, unprepared for the harsh realities of the Canadian weather, Harry succeeds where Arthur fails to build a farm with the help of his Canadian neighbours, Paul and Petra.

The novel centres on the relationship between Paul and Harry which is described sensitively and sympathetically so that the reader wills the book to have a happy ending. It would be spoiling the plot if this was to be revealed but everyone in the Book Club who read the book found it very enjoyable and satisfying read. We would recommend it highly!

Our next book is The Year of the Flood by Margaret Attwell If you are interested in joining the bookclub, we meet on Wednesday evenings monthly and I can be contacted on the number below. All are welcome!

the grapevine 300th edition

There was a Blue Peter Bring and Buy sale on December 17th and Ernestine Denham decided she would no longer be able to run Fun Club in 1984.

Three balls had been donated to the football club, but there were no home matches in December.

No 3: We had dwindled back down to 4 pages...but we were still worried about Gypsy sites.

Here we are at the 300th edition of The Grapevine, which started as a folded piece of A4 in October 1983.

What was troubling Lewknorians 33 years ago in number one? Pretty much what is troubling us now!

A few highlights from editions 1-4: No 1: We had problems with Gypsy sites, hooliganism and subsidising the bus service. There was to be no bonfire party that year and Terry Bramfitt was showing a film about gliding at the school.

Former pupil Pauline Ashby entertained pupils and visitors with her flute and another local pupil played The Entertainer with The Chris Barber Jazz Band on Jim’ll Fix It and Mr Denny won £250 in the Christmas 100 Club.

N04: The worries about the Gypsy site was now the main headline.

Neil Bindoff was congratulated on gaining his ‘O’ level maths a full 6 months before everyone else and the school were sending a delegate to New Dehli along with an exhibit of work from the school.

Stefanie O’Bryen Family Solicitor

In other news, Gill Ashby had a full page on gaining 10 ‘O’ levels and Patrick O’Brien of Postcombe had gained an Honours degree in geology at London University. It was noted that this was the second degree earned in Postcombe in as many years...

Stephen Baker, Maths, 1982.

Divorce • Conveyancing • Probate • Wills

No 2: The Grapevine had swelled to 6 pages. We were still having problems with Gypsy sites and a new development of 20 houses was being proposed south of Barley Close on Weston Road.

haseley Brook action group SODC Local Plan 2032 WHO WE ARE South oxfordshire District Council’s recently published Local Plan 2032 states a preferred option to build a town the size of Thame on Chalgrove Airfield. Their second option could see a town the size of Didcot built next to Junction 7 of the M40 (otherwise know as “Harrington”).Haseley Brook Action Group (HBAG) has been formed to challenge these options, on the basis that neither are sustainable, there are better sites within the plan, closer to infrastructure, public transport and employment that would better serve oxford’s need for housing. Note that the name “Haseley Brook” comes from our District Ward name, which covers a number of Parishes, but we aim to represent any local resident who opposes the Chalgrove Airport and Harrington sites.

CURRENT STATUS OF SODC’s PROPOSALS SoDC’s latest consultation into its proposals has just closed. Responses to this from individual residents and groups such as the Parish Councils will have sent a clear message that, whilst we recognise the need for more housing, the SoDC’s current proposals are seriously flawed. SoDC is currently reviewing the responses and should produce a revision of the plan that will be published for further consultation over the coming months.

The final decision has not yet been taken, so the opportunity to influence the decision still exists.

HBAG will keep its supporters up to date to ensure that you know about any future consultations so you can have your say.

WHAT WE ARE DOING There is a critical need to continue to exert influence on SoDC during the rest of the planning process. It is quite likely that this is just the start of the campaign and that we will need to continue to argue our case, possibly right up to a Public Enquiry in 2017.The HBAG group is liaising the Parish Councils and impacted communities and is using local expertise in planning, legal issues and PR to ensure we make the strongest possible case to persuade SoDC to change their plan.

WHY WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT AND HOW YOU CAN HELP HBAG is reliant on the support of the people in the area - the more people we can get to tell SoDC that they agree with the concerns that HBAG has raised, the more weight it adds to our campaign.If you want to help stop SoDC going ahead with this damaging proposal, go to: www.savehaseleybrook.com and reGisTer as a supporTer From the website link you can also sign our online petition (which already has 600 signatories) and get updates on what is happening.Please also encourage other local friends to join our fight and sign up to HBAG.We are also looking for volunteers to join us in future campaigning (meetings, fundraising events etc) . HBAG aims to keep its supporters fully informed on events as they happen. storry warner Chairman haseley brook action Group

news from st. margaret’s

If we have missed anyone out, please accept our apologies, but it is impossible to know everyone who does such a splendid job!

*newsflash*

Jean Senior

Peter Waterson and Jean Senior met with the architects on Friday morning to discuss the plans for the church. These are now completed and the Faculty (planning permission) will be forwarded to the DAC (Diocesan Advisory Committee) on Friday 23rd September! With their approval it will then be forwarded to the Chancellor after their meeting on 10th October for him to give his approval! Though it does take time to go through the church system, we hope to have the go ahead to apply for grants in January 2017 with the entire job finished by the end of August 2017! How exciting! The building will remain the same, but be repaired and redecorated with the addition of a toilet and a kitchen inside.

We will keep everyone updated with progress and photos as each stage progresses

Councils binning black and coloured sacks in recycling bins

Ride and Stride 2016.

There were no cyclists entered for the Ride and Stride this year, but despite the rain, Jean and Alison Swain completed the walk between the 6 churches in our parish in a little over 4 hours and some 13.5 miles. We raised £520 (total as of 13th September) which was more than we’d hope and some people were still donating this morning! If any body else would like to contribute, please go to justgiving.com/ jeansenior where the money will go straight to Oxford Historic Churches Trust, then be paid back to St Margaret’s. A massive thank you to everyone who supported us with donations and drinks and biscuits on the way!

The PCC of Lewknor would also like to thank everyone who has helped to keep the churchyard looking so beautiful this year, but in particular Christine and Tony Smith who have worked phenomenally hard, and are also putting together a plan of the old graves in the front of the church. Giles Hinkin and Gina Midgelow, Colin Harvey, and Charles Scott, as well as those who look after individual graves.

From November, South Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse District Councils will only empty green wheelie bins if the recycling in them is loose or in clear sacks.

Despite a recent campaign to raise awareness of the issue, some people are still putting in things like food waste and dirty nappies, contaminating whole truckloads of recycling - when these things are put into recycling bins in black or coloured sacks they’re not spotted until it’s too late.

If there’s a sack in a recycling bin and the waste crews can’t see what’s in it, they’ll have to assume it contains contamination and won’t empty it.

Councillor Tony Harbour, cabinet member for waste at South Oxfordshire District Council, said: “Contaminated recycling has become a real issue that we have to tackle. Insisting on loose recycling or clear sacks is a simple change that will make a big difference – and most people won’t be affected. If you do want to use bin-bags in your green bin, you can use clear ones, which are available from most large supermarkets and hardware stores. In most cases, clear sacks work out cheaper than black ones.”

Councillor Charlotte Dickson, cabinet member for waste at Vale of White Horse District Council, said: “Throughout October we’ll leave a note on any bins with the wrong colour sack in it to explain the problem – we’ll empty the bin on that occasion, but from November we’ll then have to start leaving them unemptied to help us protect everybody else’s recycling from getting contaminated.”

Hello I’m Bliss

I am around 10 years old and if you are wondering what breed I am, I’m a Bengal. The reason why I am looking for a new home at my age is because unfortunately my friend and owner of 10 years passed away.

I’ll be very honest with you I am finding Blue Cross quite a scary place to be, I do spend most of the time hiding away. I am a quiet sensitive little lad; I am looking for a nice, quiet home where my new owners will let me settle in my own time.

Being in the cattery I am missing the small things like spending my days lazing about curled up on the sofa.

Please do get in touch if you feel you can give me my forever retirement home. lewknor blue cross London Road (A40), Lewknor, OX49 5RY 0300 777 1500
