Our July issue is packed full of events, and once again we are in awe of the sense of community we enjoy here in Royston and the surrounding villages, all thanks to the many super people who live here and make things happen. We think that makes our corner of the world a pretty special place to live!

Next Booking Deadline Friday 12th July

We’re excited about the all-new event for the Royston calendar this year; the Historical Pageant, which promises to recreate medieval life in the Priory Memorial Gardens.

You are invited to dress in costume and join the procession from the Royse Stone, enjoy a medieval reenactment group and try your hand at archery, plus much more.

Melbourn Community Allotment was an overgrown mess just two years ago - and thanks to the work of a few dedicated volunteers, it’s now producing a range of fruit, vegetables and cut flowers. Gardening is proven to provide health and wellbeing benefits, so do get involved and enjoy this wonderful facility - see page 21 for more details.

Royston Arts Festival needs you!

Royston Arts Festival will be taking place from 20th – 29th September. This year’s theme is “Our Planet” and we’re excited to be able unveil the full programme of events.

We’re looking for volunteers to help out during the festival – particularly over the weekend of 27th – 29th September, when the programme is at its busiest. It’s a great opportunity to get involved and contribute to a popular fixture in the Royston calendar.

What is this?

Like the arrow on the FedEx trademark, we can see some things lots of times but not really see what’s there, until someone points it out. Then we can’t ‘un-see’ it but feel slightly superior that we know what others don’t!

That was the case with this ‘wall fitting’ in the centre of Royston. A friend, Dermot Byrne, pointed it out to me; I must have walked past it literally hundreds of times but, I never really noticed it and certainly never thought what it might be. It’s on the corner of the Jolly Postie building, above head height just below the blue plaque.

I posted the photo on the ‘Royston Reporting’ Facebook page to find out more and had a brilliant response within an hour. The consensus view is best summed up by Julia Humphreys: “When it was the post office the safe was on the other side of the wall. The hole,

handrail and step were used by the person who came along at different times to look through the hole; to make sure the post office wasn’t being broken into and to check the safe!”

Thank you, Julia; if anyone knows different or more please let me know.

Church Update

Work has commenced, and is almost complete, on the “Enabling Stage” which is the clearance of debris, resulting from the fire, and the inspection of stonework etc.

Bakers of Danbury have been sympathetically carrying out this operation whilst ensuring that all items of importance are carefully preserved and protected. All the pews have been removed and are currently being stored in the chancel to enable investigative work to be carried out on the floor which incurred some subsidence.

At the same time involvement of archaeologists has been necessary to determine and register any historical issues prior to reinstatement.

As previously reported the bells suffered major damage and all have now been lowered for examination and re-casting. This has been done with the help of John Taylor & Co. Discussions have also commenced on looking at the way forward as far as the church organ is concerned with all options being considered including a new pipe organ v an electronic one.

Whilst the work on the church has been moving apace, support from the community has continued, particularly from a financial point of view.

A great example of this is the recent concert by the Royston Town Band the proceeds from which, amounting to £412, were for the benefit of the church.

We were also delighted to hear that our refurbishment project had won the vote under the Tesco Bags of Help scheme resulting in a grant of £4,000. These, together with other donations means that the Church Refurbishment Fund has grown to over £30,000 - a great big “Thank You” to everyone involved.

If you have any questions, please speak to our Church Warden, Nick Hindle: 01763 324325 or Treasurer, Phil Burchell: 01763 848937

NEWS FROM OUR CLUBS & SOCIETIES...

Royston and the surrounding villages are a hive of activity. We are incredibly fortunate to have a wealth of clubs and societies within our town and villages, covering a wide range of interests - from arts to sports, adventure to support.

Royston u3a

If you were feeling ill in Victorian times it was easy to take hard drugs without realising it.

Advertisements for medicines promised to cure all sorts of ailments, but with ingredients like cocaine, opium and many more they were addictive and potentially lethal.

Our speaker Graham Harrison revealed that poisons were also commonly used in children’s medicines. Cough mixtures and toothache drops both contained morphine.

A lack of regulation meant manufacturers did not have to provide any scientific evidence for the claims they made, resulting in some bizarre and outrageous products At the next meeting on 30th July, Sarah Harrison and Ros Holbrow will present Comedy Pulsatillas. At the Town Hall, 2pm. www.u3asites.org.uk/royston or contact Jackie: jackieroystonu3a@gmail.com or 01763 248097

We meet in Fellowship Hall next to the Picture Palace and are very happy to welcome new members.

Chalkhill Blue

The car park repairs are well underway, and we thank both the Racher Trust and Rotary for their donations to make this happen. The brief inconvenience was worth it now we have a wider entrance, white lines and flowing traffic.

Last year was a good year for butterflies.

At the time of writing, there is a very good display of Horseshoe Vetch, the food plant of the Chalkhill Blue’s larva but it is too early to have seen any Logo Competition Chalkhill Blue butterflies yet.

Sheep

Voluntary Contribution

The sheep are up on Pen Hills and we hope everyone is checking the map on the Heath club house wall, website and social media. We ask that you keep your dogs on short leads (less than 2metres) around grazing areas. It is stressful to the sheep to be harassed and could lead to the cessation of grazing on site – which is essential for maintaining the chalk grassland habitat.

Following suggestions made at the recent public meeting the Conservators are not pursuing the idea of charging for car parking at the moment. Instead they are looking at the best way of encouraging people to make voluntary contributions towards the maintenance of the Heath.

Pet of the Month Callisto (Brown) and Chewit (White and Brown) are a pair of bonded rabbits that love each other’s company.

Callisto is a larger rabbit, is not a fan of being picked up, and so would benefit from a

run that is attached to their hutch.

Callisto loves digging.

Both rabbits are friendly.

Cath mentions

The other week, three friends and I headed over to the fab Thai Food Direct supermarket in Letchworth, where we bought authentic thai ingredients such as galangal, turmeric root, coriander root, lemon grass, lime leaves and copious amounts of fresh chillies.

We sat outside and made our own fresh green and red curry pastes from scratch.

Much pounding, crushing and grinding later, we enjoyed a fabulous green curry in the garden.

You can read more about the recipes online at www.thelistingmagazine.co.uk/ thai-cookery/

Sharon mentions

As I write this today the sun is slowly starting to poke his head out of the clouds so it’s time to throw open the patio doors and get ready for Summer and ‘Al Fresco’ dining. This summer the garden will be our main dining area and looking its best ready for BBQs, picnics and outdoor drink parties! Although I am looking forward to making the most of the countryside and soaking up the Therfield Heath views and enjoying our outdoor bars and restaurants!

Ellie mentions

My favourite part about summer is being able to eat and drink outside. I love in the mornings being able to eat my breakfast in my garden. I can’t wait to sit in some pub gardens for some dinner and a nice cool drink.

This is a vibrant and colourful stall which is really eye catching.

From Tallulah’s Kitchen ALL aMERICAN bAKED CHEESECAKE WITH PECAN PIE TOPPING

Hello my fellow foodies... and welcome to another bright and shiny edition of The Listing.

This month I thought I would share wilth you something to celebrate our American neighbour’s Independence Day. I was torn between a proper baked cheesecake and Pecan Pie, so after much debate I though “why not the best of both?” I hope you enjoy it!

For the base • 300g Digestive Biscuits • 2tbsp Cocoa Powder • 50g Melted Butter • 1tbsp Golden Caster Sugar

• 2tbsp Plain Flour • 2 tbsp Orange Juice • Finely grated zest of one orange • 2 eggs from happy free running hens Cream together the cream cheese, sugar and sour cream together then add the flour, orange juice zest and eggs and beat until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

Pour this mixture over the chilled biscuit base and bake at 170° for approximately one hour until the cheesecake is set with a slight “wobble” and just beginning to colour on top. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in its tin.

Place brown sugar, cornflour and salt in a heavy based saucepan. Add the egg yolks, maple syrup and double cream and heat up until the sugar dissolves, then bring to the boil stirring all the time.

Once you have a custard like consistency add the chopped Pecans nuts and stir well. Allow to chill slightly then pour this nutty loveliness on top of the cheese cake and arrange the Pecan halves on top in a pattern of you choice.

Chill for as long as possible, over night works well, before slicing and serving with Patriotism, a ticker tape parade and much fanfare.... or lashings of whipped cream and a nice cup of tea if that is more your “thing!”

Until next time dear reader...

For the topping • 130g Brown Sugar

• 25g Cornflour Crush the biscuits to a fine crumb, add the sugar and the cocoa powder then stir in the • 1/4 tsp Salt melted butter and mix thoroughly. Pour into • 4 egg yolks from free running hens eggs a grease proof, lined, loose bottom 23cm round tin and press down to form a flat and • 150ml Maple Syrup even layer, pop it in the fridge to chill.

• 125ml Double Cream For the filling • 150g Chopped Pecan Nuts • 340g Cream Cheese • 140g Caster Sugar

• 2tbsp Butter

• 125ml Sour Cream

• 100g Pecan halves to decorate

the belle, bassingbourn - review Based in Bassingbourn, The Belle recently reopened its doors as a destination bar and restaurant.

The bar hosts an extensive cocktail and gin list, boasting well over 100 gins at the last count!

Review

The cocktails range from the classic - Strawberry Negroni (Belsazar Rose Vermouth + Strawberry Infused Campari + Gin) to the contemporary Lady Marmalade (Marmalade Vodka + Bergamot + Sicilian Lemonade + Teapot Bitters), and as for the gins.... botanicals and garnishes include everything you can think of and then some more..cardamom, samphire, sea air (yes, really), tea, pink pepper, apricot, cherry.. oh the list goes on!

The restaurant offers a seasonally changing menu using locally sourced ingredients and adding a hint of flavour from the Middle East.

Our reviewers visited The Belle in early May, the first time they’d been through the doors in a few years.

“The food was delicious, the service excellent. We were made to feel very welcome.”

They were impressed with the food, and enjoyed a spiced chicken liver terrain with apricot

chutney and toasted flat bread, followed by dry aged hangar steak, salt baked celeriac, beef dripping, crumb rocket and coriander, and triple cooked chips served with a lemon aioli.

“All in all, a great night out!”

Royston Townswomen Guild A Motoring correspondent, Rodney Tibb’s career took him to exotic and unusual locations.

On one assignment he went to Jordan. He was to join a luxury liner anchored offshore.

Rodney was instructed to take a new car to Petra for a special photo shoot.

Petra, an archaeological site in Jordan’s south western desert, is carved into pink sandstone cliffs and is known as The ‘Rose City. Petra is not only a UNESCO World Heritage site, but also one of the Seven New Wonders of the World – chosen in 2007.

For the photo shoot, cars were to be placed in front of the famous 45m high Al Khazneh temple with its ornate, Greekstyle facade as the backdrop.

But there was an enormous problem. Access to the temple was only via a narrow canyon one kilometre long, named Al Siq. But how were they going to get a car in there?

Rodney explained how each car was carefully airlifted and manoeuvred into place by helicopter.

Spotlight On...

Melbourn Community Allotment Fancy spending some time in the fresh air and getting outdoors? Now is the perfect time especially now the good weather is on the way.

Two years ago, Melbourn Community Allotment on the Moor was an overgrown mess. Now, thanks to the work of a few, dedicated volunteers, it is a well organised, highly attractive site producing a range of fruit, vegetables, and even cut flowers.

It is currently looking for new helpers to join the group from 10am-12pm on Friday mornings.

Helpers get lots of fresh air, gentle exercise, and produce to take home.

ART IN ARRINGTON

Tools and refreshments are also provided and all abilities of gardeners are welcomed.

“It was always our intention to invite those with mental health problems or the socially isolated to join us,” says Diana Barker, the group’s leader, “But anyone wanting fresh air, friendship, and gentle exercise is more than welcome.”

There are many ways gardening can help with your mental health.

• Gardening is great exercise - 3/4 hours gardening can burn as many calories as an hour of exercising.

• Gardening is theraputic - it can take your mind off everyday stresses and just focus on the garden • It’s a good way to vent anger - Certain areas can be great to release some anger and cutting and chopping helps prevent plants from overgrowing!

Think Garden, Think Richard Materials For A Purpose... Path Products Melbourn garden designer, Richard Arnott Continuing my series of articles for 2019, Materials For A Purpose, I am going to be discussing how best to choose the right materials for your desired purpose and how they best fit into the design of a space. I want to get you thinking about the options and how the right selection can give you a cohesive, timeless solution rather than a predictable, uninspiring result. This month I want to investigate products used for screening in the garden.

Fencing is a very obvious way to screen and delineate a garden boundary and it certainly comes in all shapes and sizes. Last summer I designed and built a small Cambridge contemporary courtyard garden. The space was viewed on all sides through the bifold glass doors so the fencing material needed to be higher specification and quality to act as a back drop to the planting. I used horizontal slatted panels that allow some light and give a contemporary flavour to the space and complemented the granite paving. In sharp contrast a simple boundary fence in a large country garden could be feather edge

boarding or split chestnut post and rails. For a smarter option the woven willow looks great!

Trellis panels are a good way to extend the height of your fence by an extra 600mm (2ft) and allow light through. The standard shapes are square or diamond and this allows for that extra amount of screening. Generally I would grow climbers such as Clematis or golden hop up and through the trellis to soften the effect. I find that gardens can look box like and claustrophobic with too much fencing. Simply adding shaped borders and breaking up the amount of wood the eye looks at will help to eradicate the rectilinear feel that fencing gives.

Shelterbelt planting is my go to solution for softening and greening up the screening effect. By shelter belt I mean a collection of planting that will act as a block for wildlife, colour and interest. This is useful in more rural locations where post and rail fencing is more appropriate and cost effective over a long run. Mixed native shrubs will soon grow up to provide all year round interest and a wildlife habitat at the same time. In urban back gardens this is even more relevant where wildlife habitat for birds is being eroded by low maintenance, sterile outdoor spaces. Planted back gardens can provide a corridor of habitat for our wildlife linking spaces together, but if there is no planting the gardens cannot link.

I love to use hazel, guilder rose, dog wood, spindle, hawthorn, holly and crab apple to name just a few!

Lollipop trees have become popular to screen specific views in outdoor spaces.

The stem of the tree is clear to a given height with a shaped crown on top to screen the neighbour’s windows. It is often justifiable in a garden budget to spend on single ticket items to give instant solutions. I generally like to plant sensible sized plants and let them grow, but there are many more options available now.

I like to use Ligustrum japonicum, Robinia pseudoacacia ‘Umbraculifera’ Laurus nobillis and Photinia ‘Red Robin’. There are other choices from specialist nurseries and it is worth selecting the trees in person to know exactly what you’re getting. This is especially relevent when selecting more than one. One year I had a client that sold off part of the garden so needed several specimens to screen off the new development of houses at the end of the garden.

Pleached trees are a very smart solution to screening issues in the garden. A pleached tree is essentially a hedge on stilts and is a great way to give controlled interest at height.

I like to use Carpinus betulus and Pyrus calleryana ‘Chanticleer’ to name just a few. It does give a very deliberate effect and always reminds me of national trust gardens.

Waterlight Film project You may have read about this project in previous editions of the Listing. Inspired by the River Mel, poet Clare Crossman wrote nine poems capturing the essence of our beautiful chalk stream. She then linked up with film maker James Murray White to make a film about the river based on her poems. Further filming has been carried out by Nigel Kinnings who has also edited the film.

After a year of capturing memories, interviewing residents, involving Meldreth primary school children and extensively filming, the film is now going to be shown in Melbourn.

You are invited to “AN EVENING WITH THE RIVER MEL” on 25th July at 8.00pm at the Community Hall behind the church in Melbourn. The film will be shown and, after a break for refreshments and chat, we will share experiences of the river recounted to us by local residents: for instance

Electrical ContractorsLtd

one said “the river was our playground when I was a child” and then described her various activities in and by the river. Following this we hope attendees will participate in a general discussion and share their memories of the river, triggered by the film, which we can record for the website.

Following the local showing it will be shown in Royston and at venues in Cambridge and it is planned to also show it at film festivals around the country.

CATHRYN’S PILATES

Looking After you “Foods to boost your mood” Well being is all about giving yourself the best you can in your mind and body and what better way to do that than to eat the right foods. I personally live a full plant based lifestyle and love how different foods can support my physical health but also my mental well being.

So here our a list of foods that I love to include into my diet.

Brazil Nuts

Brazil nuts are one of the best sources of the mineral selenium, and studies have shown that people who are low in selenium have increased rates of depression, irritability, anxiety and tiredness.

Oats

Oats are an effective mood booster because of their low glycaemic index (GI) they slowly release energy into the bloodstream, which keeps blood sugar and mood stable.

Oats also contain the moodboosting mineral selenium.

Bananas

Bananas contain the amino acid tryptophan as well as vitamins A, B6 and C, fibre, potassium, phosphorous, iron and

carbohydrate.

Mood-boosting carbohydrates aid in the absorption of tryptophan in the brain, while vitamin B6 helps convert the tryptophan into the moodlifting hormone serotonin.

Lentils are a complex carbohydrate like bananas, so they help increase the brain’s production of the feel-good serotonin. This results are a calmer, happier state of mind with less anxiety.

Dark Chocolate 80% - My favourite!

There’s a reason why chocolate always seems to make you feel good. A small square of dark chocolate causes the brain to release endorphins and boost serotonin levels. Studies show that chocolate eaters produce less stress hormones and their anxiety levels decreased.

Richard’s Monthly Tip

Muscle turns to fat if you stop exercising.

And lead turns to gold if you polish it hard enough! Muscle can’t turn into fat, as they are different tissues. If you stop exercising you may pile on the pounds, but that’s simply because you’re no longer burning the calories you consume. Less exercise means less calories!

Business Lessons the easy way A magazine I read recently asked its entrepreneur readers to send in business lessons that they had had to learn the hard way.

Here are a few that particularly resonated with me: 1. You can’t do everything on your own. Building a team is essential because there are only so many hours one person can devote to a business. If you don’t want to be handcuffed to your business, make sure your team can carry on when you’re not around.

2. You may think your product is perfect, but your clients won’t. You only find out how good a product really is when it’s in the field and users are beating it up. It’s like X Factor contestants – they think they’re talented, their friends tell them they’re brilliant, but once they get on the big stage it can be a different story.

3. Do one thing really well.

Entrepreneurs try to be everything to everyone, but it really pays to specialise and carve yourself a profitable niche.

4.Undercharging is not sustainable.

Lowering your prices or giving discounts is just giving money away for no benefit. Instead, always choose to compete on quality, value, expertise and your niche focus. New clients who start with you because you’re cheapest will dump you without a qualm as soon as someone else undercuts you.

5. Be grateful. Appreciate loyal customers who show you there is a demand for what you do.

There is no cash amount you can put on loyalty and the effect of having brand advocates.

6.It’s not a sale until it’s paid for. It’s great getting an order, or landing a meeting with a prospective client. But that counts for nothing until the money is in the bank!

And if you have any lessons to share with other entrepreneurs, just let me know and I’ll put them in a future article. Good luck!
