Being a mother is one of the highest salaried jobs... since the payment is pure love. ~Mildred B. Vermont

With Mother’s Day approaching I thought I would look for a quote about mothers this month and came across this lovely one. Being a mum can be hard at times (particularly during half term which is when I am writing this)! However the rewards are many and varied, from the thrill of � rst steps, to the satisfaction of

children spreading their wings as independent young people and then moving on to creating families

of their own. As Mother’s Day approaches give a thought for all Mums at whatever stage of motherhood they may be, and don’t forget those around you who no longer have their mums to treat this Mother’s Day.

The next issue will be delivered from 28th March – Good Friday. Anything that you

would like to be included must be with me by Thursday 14th March.

We all wanted to see it all over again but the tickets were sold out and that’s good because lots of people want to see it again, like us.

If you ever want to go and see this astonishing performance it would be the best performance you have ever seen!

Sir Thomas Wharton We Will Rock YouPerformance

The ParishRoom

ON THE 11TH of February Year 5 at Wadworth Primary School went to see a play - We Will Rock You at Sir Thomas Wharton Community College. The performance was hilarious and the actors who performed worked really hard on this. The costumes were super and funny plus they had very bright colours. Year � ves liked this performance very much and would recommend it to other people. They have achieved a lot and should be proud. Everyone in the play was doing their very best. We liked the expression in their emotions and in their actions. Our favourite actor and actress were Galileo and the Killer Queen.

Our favourite song was A Crazy Little Thing Called Love. Our favourite part was when the Killer Queen was singing and the back ground dances were great with poles.

The We Will Rock You performance was not what we were expecting. It was fantastic.

ON JANUARY 4TH, 60 very excited children and sta� went to the Civic Theatre in Doncaster.

“Oh no they didn’t!”“Oh yes they did”This was the annual pantomime

visit for Key Stage 1 children. The visit is the start of the fairy tale topic for the Spring Term. In the past the children have visited the Lyceum Theatre in She� eld as well as the Doncaster Civic Theatre. We have seen wonderful shows including Aladdin, Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella. This year was the turn of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.

The children were wowed by singing, dancing and the obligatory villain. On their return to school the children wrote their own accounts as well as acting out a variety of fairy tales. We can’t wait until next year to visit the new Civic Theatre. In the meantime the children will be dressing up as characters from their favourite books for Book Day in March. Maybe we will have our own Snow White and the Seven Dwarves!

HELLO WE ARE BENJI & ROSIE, We came to May� ower as our owners were workinglong hours.

As we are new in care we are going through an assessment period and there will be more information up about me shortly.

If you would like any more information please don’t hesitate to ask one of my carers.

Benji & Rosie

Pets

HELLO FROM US all at the Sanctuary. The start of the year has had its ups and downs. We have had quite an in� ux of dogs and cats coming to us over Christmas which is usual for this time of year. What is unusual is that lots of pedigree dogs are with us for various reasons. We have some beautiful Labradors, German Shepherd and smaller pedigrees all needing loving homes. If you feel you would like to spend your life with a pet whether it be a dog or a cat please call and see us we are open 2-4 during the week and 1-4 at a weekend. Closed on a Tuesday.

If you also have time on your hand and need to get � t can we suggest you come and walk some of our dogs during the day. Mornings are better before we open or any time on a Tuesday. It gives us all an incentive to walk if we have a four legged friend at our side & you will be surprised at how much thefresh air and exercise will helplift your spirits especially nowthe weather is getting a littlebetter. If you would like further information please call us 01302711330 or 07969203206.

HELLO, MY NAME IS LOKI. I was returned to the

May� ower because my owner was struggling to look

after me and a young baby.

I can be a little nervous when I � rst meet people, but it

doesn’t take me long to warm to you, especially if you win

me over with a little play.

I am quite a laid back dog and am generally happy to sit

back and watch the world go by, I do like attention &

I love to have a fuss and love to go out for long walks.

I don’t want for much; if you could o� er me a place in your

family, a cosy spot to curl up in and a little exercise then why

not take me in the paddock and get to

know me a little better? It could be the start of

something beautiful.

Name: PIPSex: MALEApprox age: 7 YearsGood with dogs: NOLived with children: YES Good with other cats: NO

PipHELLO I’M PIP, I came to

May� ower due to my owners ill health.

Even though I’m a tad older I am still very playful

and like my walks, I am a loving lad that likes the

company of my owner but I won’t mind being left for

a while as I don’t mind my own company.

I have only lived with older children but my

previous owners said I was very fussy with any

children, I don’t like other dogs too much so a home

where I am the only dog would be ideal.

If you think I would � t nicely into your home,

then please don’t hesitate to ask one of my carers.

YOU’VE PUT YOUR home up for sale and you receive that all important call from your Estate Agent informing you’ve got a viewing. This is your chance to let your home shine and help your potential buyer realise the bene� ts of living there.HERE ARE SOME helpful tips for showing your home:1) MAXIMISE THE light in every room to make your home feel more welcoming. Before your potential

buyer arrives draw back all blinds and curtains and switch on ceiling lights and lamps.2) A WARM home is an inviting home, in these colder months makes sure your heating is on and your home is warm and cosy. If your house is unoccupied then aim to arrive at least 30 minutes before the viewing to turn up the heating.3) REMOVE CLUTTER and clean your home from top to bottom

taking particular care to make your bathrooms and kitchen SPARKLE.4) DRESS KEY areas such as Dining Tables with crockery and fresh � owers for a homely feel.5) 1ST IMPRESSIONS , move your cars o� the drive, check your front door is clean and if you have a doorbell, check it’s working.

6) ALLOW YOUR potential buyers to imagine themselves living there, give some thought to the key bene� ts of your home and bring them into conversation –the sunny patio is perfect for BBQ’s or the luxury bathroom as a fantastic place to unwind after a hectic day.7) ALWAYS HAVE keys to hand for areas such as Garages or Outside Storage.8) YOUR HOME has had a life and many rooms may have had various uses over the years. Why not give your viewers a feel for your homes versatility by creating a Home Book. Pack it full of photographs illustrating the various uses for rooms, your garden at di� erent times of the year, the local village fete last summer.9) KEEP SAFE – Put away any valuables or cash. Never allow yourself to get trapped in a room

without exit. Let a neighbour or friends know you’re showing your home and make arrangement to call and check on you within a prescribed time period.10) USE THE professional expertise

of your Estate Agent, if you’re not comfortable with doing the viewings than ask your Agent to carry out your viewings, whilst you go out.

THE LAST WEEK before half term was a busy and exciting one in school. On the Tuesday 12th February 2013 we were joined by Mrs Cannings-Clough and members of the Tickhill Residents Association for the 11th Annual Pancake Race. The pupils in Years 5 and 6 had great fun and the competition was � erce. The races were full of the usual thrills and spills and the younger pupils had great fun cheering for their favourites. The eventual winners were Lauren Fields and Max Davidson who were presented with their prizes by Mrs Cannings-Clough and Mayor Ray Hill.

We would like to thank Mrs Cannings-Clough, Ray Hill and all of the Residents Association members who turned out on a bitterly cold day. All competitors received a certi� cate to mark the occasion and a chocolate treat. Well done to everybody!

On the following day our Reception Class celebrated the Chinese New Year – the Year of the Snake. A Chinese banquet was held and delicious prawn crackers, noodles and chicken proved tricky to eat with chopsticks, but they all persevered.

The � nal event of the week was the Valentine’s Disco which was

Shrove Tuesday,the Year of the

Snake andSt. Valentine

well-attended; it was not love in the air but the aroma of hot-dogs that wafted around the school! The pupils had a great time dancing and socialising before the half term break. Thank you to all of the Home and School Association for their help and support in arranging the disco and other fundraising events in school this term.

A NEW DANCE craze perhaps? Well maybe … if you’re a worm that is! In my opinion, worms have to be the unsung heroes of the garden. They only eat what I don’t want, they tidy up leaves from the borders by dragging them down into the soil, and who else improves our soil structure by adding air holes, incorporating organic matter en route and even provides food for the birds (sorry worms!), all for free?

As far as I’m aware, garden worms don’t have their own ‘worm awareness week’, they just carry on doing what they do best, quietly making beautifully rich, dark brown garden goodness. You may be happy to leave the worms well alone, merrily munching away in the compost heap, but why not have a go at making your own worm villa (known as a wormery), or buying a pre- made version online? Most kids love worms

so it’s a great activity to do as a family, or indeed if you enjoy the idea of reducing land� ll and nourishing your garden at the same time.

Worms will happily nosh through your kitchen waste. They’re not that fussy but they don’t like acidic things such as citrus peels, garlic and onion, but things they do love (strangely) are teabags, eggshell and cold mashed potato, (I’ve heard that for worms these foods are like us eating oysters…they erm… put them in the mood for a little wriggle wriggle). That said, worms never over populate and are able to regulate their breeding actively in line with their environment. Bizarrely they can also change gender to suit the local talent on o� er!

They don’t like extremes in temperature, so I’d advise keeping them in a shaded corner which

does not get too hot or cold. Their home can be insulated in winter, or moved into the garage. The resulting compost is rich and when scattered into the borders makes a highly concentrated soil improver, as does the liquid ‘wee tea’ which can be accessed via the tap at the base of the wormery. Diluted at 1:10 with water it makes a great natural liquid plant food too.

Hoe o� any newly germinating weed seedlings on a dry day

Cut back shrubs such as Cornus (dogwood) and Buddleia

Herbaceous perennials such as Hostas which are just

beginning to re-grow can be dug up and chopped into 2 or 4 pieces and replanted to make more. Begin feeding � sh Don’t forget to provide food for the worms – add a 5cm layer of compost to the top of the soil and let the worms pull it in.

HAVE RISING FOOD prices given you an appetite for growing your own fruit and veg? Would you like to be able to eat your own home-grown fruit and veg that you know is free from pesticides and other nasties? Would you like to be able to show your children how to grow their own as a way of encouraging a healthier diet?

But what if you want to join the grow-your-own community but don't have

a garden? Or perhaps you rent your home

and your landlord won’t allow

you to dig up his lawn to create a vegetable plot! Taking an allotment is no longer an option for many, according to recent � gures from the National Society of Allotment & Leisure Gardeners more than 90,000 people are on allotment waiting lists in the UK. Here in Tickhill while the local council are doing everything they can to create new allotments and reduce their waiting list the reality is that anyone joining the list now is unlikely to get an allotment anytime soon.

This had led to a surge of people up and down the country signing up to garden share schemes that are helping would-be growers connect with nearby garden owners. Many garden owners who join are either too elderly or too busy to manage their own plots, and by sharing their garden they don't have to watch it turn into a jungle of weeds. While no money changes hands in garden sharing, those involved often have an agreement to divide up the fruit and veg produced.

Tickhill Town Council would like to launch their own garden share scheme.

They would love to link those wanting somewhere to grow their own fruit and veg with residents who have a spare piece of garden that they would be willing to share. The area doesn’t have to be large – not everyone requires something allotment sized, just somewhere to grow a few rows of carrots, courgettes, and radishes and a wigwam or two

of runner beans or sweat peas!

Maybe you aren’t as young as you were and can no longer manage your garden, maybe you work long hours and underestimated how much time it would take to care for a large garden when you bought your home, or maybe the person who used to care for your garden is no longer with us, and your garden has been left to its own devices and could do with someone to tend it again. Whatever the situation, if you have a piece of garden you would be willing to share then please contact Tickhill Town Council and express your interest in registering for the scheme. This will not obligate you – but will allow you to � nd out more and see if a suitable match can be found for you.

Likewise if you would like the use of a piece of garden in your neighbourhood and would be willing to share a few of your crops with the home owner then also register your interest.

The aim of Garden Share is to link committed, enthusiastic growers with local garden owners who are happy to share, and see their gardens being used more productively. Many of those taking part experience the pleasure of seeing a lovely developing veggie plot, and the sense of community in being part of a sharing initiative.

To � nd out more and register your interest contact in con� dence the Clerk to the Council, Mrs Margaret Cannings-Clough on 01302 745372 or email [email protected]

Sowing the seedsfor a growingcommunity


Like everything else in the garden, our lawns are learning to cope with the ups and downs of climate change.Our lawns take a real battering as a result and we expect them to come back year after year. Well, they will - we take it for granted. Their ability to bounce back is amazing but that doesn’t mean they don’t need some help because every year it gets that bit more difficult. With a little time and effort you can have a handsome and healthy lawn for your family to enjoy which is the envy of all your friends and neighbours. Here are our six tips to get your lawn off to a flying start.

Clean UpRake away those dead leaves, twigs and branches. The less debris on the lawn, the healthier it will be, not to mention the real benefit from increasing its exposure to sunlight.

Lawns don’t like shadeTake a good look at those border plants, shrubs and trees – they all have a habit of encroaching on the lawn’s space and weakening it by denying it light. Then … get the secateurs out!

Is your mower up to the job?Check your mower is up to the job - it’s not too late to get it serviced. Make sure the blade is sharp and keep it that way by buying a spare and swapping it over as the season progresses. Remember to raise the height of your first cut to just ‘top’ the grass – cutting it too low will put the grass into stress and set it back - just when you want to encourage it.

Does your lawn need some T.L.C?The ground starts to warm now so it’s a good time to repair those bare patches that always appear over winter. Carefully rake the patch to create a bed, sow the seeds with a little top-soil and don’t let them dry out. They’ll germinate in a few days. Don’t mow or feed them until a few weeks have passed and they’re well established.

Hand-pick those early weeds.If hand-picking isn’t your thing and you don’t fancy buying, storing and handling chemicals, get the professionals in.

Look out for sickly-looking patches.Leatherjackets, the larval form of the ‘Daddy Long-legs’ can devastate a lawn in spring as they chomp through the roots of the grass. If you suspect a problem, get professional advice.

Old InhabitantsIt has been my privilege and pleasure to have lived in Tickhill now for forty five years. Despitethis long residence it is likely to take another decade or so before being accepted as properlybelonging. Even then I will not qualify as a true Tickhillian (or Tickhiller, as some people wouldhave it). It is not possible to identify a genuine old inhabitant just by looking or by casualacquaintance. The only true means of identification is to eavesdrop on a group of them talking.It is a revelation. The powers of recall and the depth of local knowledge are a source of wonder.The imaginary conversation may go something like this:Sorry to hear Alice Jackson has died. She was in my class at primary school when Miss Brewsterwas our teacher.Gosh! she was a bit of a tyrant was Gertrude Brewster. I had the cane from her more than once.Not as often as Neville Williams though, he was always in trouble.I used to work with Neville on the railway and he was a lovely chap. Would do anything foranybody. Didn’t he marry that Sarah girl?Yes, she was his first wife. Her mother were a Bullock. Lived somewhere near the Spital. She diedtragically in ’47 and it was several years before he married again. That was Hannah Cartrightwho came from Loversall and worked part time at the garage. Came to work on that old bike inall weathers.It would be the Dysons at the garage in those days. Remember that old car they ran as a taxi?Kept breaking down even though run by motor mechanics. Young Ron Dyson was a bit of atearaway and ended up joining the army. Grandma Dyson was nice. Didn’t she help withcleaning the church?Yes, there was a team of ladies I remember, because my Aunty Maud was one of them. Theywere bossed about by one of the church wardens.That would be Billy Havers who had his finger in everything. Lived up Lindrick somewhere andkept lots of cats. He married that Molly Spencer who lived in Church Lane.And this sort of talk can go on for hours. The speakers, between them, knew everybody, andwhat’s more, knew most of their private business, where they lived, how old they were, who alltheir relatives were and what happened to them. This is total recall and local oral history on agrand scale. It is a treat to overhear these exchanges which we incomers cannot hope toemulate. We can only stand on the sidelines and admire the performance.With today’s more fragmented society when people leave their home town to go to universityor find work elsewhere, this kind of local memory store is unlikely to be replicated which will bea loss.

THINKING DAY IS the day when we think of Brownies all over the world. We celebrate Thinking Day on 22nd February every year, and when it does not fall within half term the girls wear their uniform to school. The date was chosen as it was the birthday of Scouting and Guiding Founder Robert Baden-Powell and of Olave Baden-Powell, his wife. In Tickhill we usually hold a small service where every girl is given a small cardboard � ag and a candle, we light our candles and turn all the lights o� ,

in turn we ‘think’ about the brownies in the country of the � ag they hold.

Also this year we were invited to an International Day in Doncaster. 12 brownies took part and we played games from India and New Zealand, we made a Japanese � oating candle and we sang songs from Australia. I’m not sure who enjoyed it the most, us, or the Brownies.

We have made Chinese Lanterns for Chinese New Year and Tam O’Shanter badges for Burns’ night. We have also enjoyed pancakes on

Shrove Tuesday. We have even made dens out of newspaper in the scout hut. Quite an eventful half term!

I am just starting to organise a Pack Holiday in Walesby to take place in September. Walesby Activity Centre has a river so we will be making rafts on the river, we will also have a chance to learn some circus skills.

Clare Carr, Brown Owl, 07780 703012

CelebrateThinking Day

OUR DAY SERVICES operate throughout the year at community locations across Doncaster. They are great places to meet and socialise, have a fresh cooked two course meal and join in a range of activities, or just have a chat and read the papers, it’s up to you. We have centres at the following locations every Monday excluding bank holidays:

Tickhill Methodist Church & Rossington Memorial Hall.

If you would like to come along for a ‘taster’ day, or require more information, please contact Age UK Doncaster on 01302 812345.

Horticultural SocietyTHE ANNUAL GENERAL Meeting on the 31st January proved to be a successful and enjoyable evening. Chairman Ray Hill reviewed the year thanking a number of members for their special e� orts ensuring the smooth running of meetings and events, and all members, friends and local businesses for their continued support.

The 2012 accounts revealed a small pro� t for the year, and the annual subscription will remain at £7 - not bad for ten speaker meetings with co� ee and biscuits.

Eric Brough read out his list of speakers for 2013, covering an excellent range of subjects-- we are in for another good year.

The committee were all happy to continue and were re-elected en bloc.

After the business the pie and pea supper went down well and Ray’s quiz caused a few laughs.

The second speaker meeting of the year will be held in the Methodist Schoolroom on Thursday 28th March starting at 7.15p.m, when our speaker will be Steven Hickman of the Hoyland Plant Centre. Since Steve last spoke to us in October 2007 on “Winter � owering baskets and planters” he has developed into the leading authority in the U.K. on”Agapanthus and Tulbaghia” winning a range of gold medals for his displays. We are very pleased to have him back. There will be plants for sale.

that modest homes for rent or shared ownership could be built.

The top 3 speci� cs requested in 2003 were (1) slow down through tra� c and restrict or ban HGVs, (2) tackle the litter problem and (3) provide a skateboarding park. While there are no easy answers to any of these, your responses in 2012 suggest that we still have a lot to do! My personal view is that our Neighbourhood Plan should have a short list of speci� cs (an Implementation Plan separate from the Neighbourhood Plan itself) which are capable of being achieved fairly quickly and identify clear responsibilities for doing them. Of course there will also be medium- and long-term aspirations. There is no point in doing all the work if it ends up collecting dust! As the Neighbourhood Plan – if all goes well and it is approved – has legal status, it really should have some teeth!

AS THIS COPY goes to print before our public consultation on February 28/March 1 (hopefully many of you called in and made your contribution to the discussions) this article re� ects instead on an earlier e� ort to plan ahead in our parish.

I have been looking again at the Planning for Real exercise carried out in Tickhill in 2003. The number of residents who put forward ideas was similar to those who responded last summer to the � rst Neighbourhood Plan consultation. Then, as now, tra� c and transport issues topped the list, followed next by leisure and environment. The 2003 exercise covered a wider range of issues than we can include in the Neighbourhood Plan; comments on such areas as crime, training opportunities and health would have to be passed on to the appropriate authorities.

Interestingly in 2003 there were few comments on housing; the majority of them opposed any new house building. In 2012 we have had many comments suggesting a wish for Tickhill to remain at its present size, but a few aware of a need for ‘a� ordable houses’, however these are de� ned. Recent local house building certainly isn’t in that category! One possible challenge is to look for somewhere

- Poach the � sh. Put the � sh in the frying pan and pour over 500ml of the milk. Finely chop the onion, then add to the milk, with the bay leaves. Bring the milk just to the boil - you will see a few small bubbles. Reduce the heat and simmer for 8 mins. Lift the � sh onto a plate and strain the milk into a jug to cool. Flake the � sh into large pieces in the baking dish.

- Hard-boil the eggs. Bring a small pan of water to a gentle boil, then carefully lower the eggs in with a slotted spoon. Bring the water back to a gentle boil, with just a couple of bubbles rising to the surface. Set the timer for 8 mins, cook, then drain and cool in a bowl of cold water. Peel, slice into quarters and arrange on top of the � sh, then scatter over the chopped parsley.

- Make the sauce. Melt half the butter in a pan, stir in the � our and cook for 1 min over moderate heat. Take o� the heat, pour in a little of the cold poaching milk, then stir until blended. Continue to add the milk gradually, mixing well

until you have a smooth sauce. Return to the heat, bring to the boil and cook for 5 mins, stirring continually. Remove from the heat, season with salt & pepper, then pour over the � sh.

- Boil the potatoes for 20 mins. Drain, season and mash with the remaining butter and milk. Use to top the pie, starting at the edge of the dish and working your way in - push the mash right to the edges to seal. Flu� the top with a fork, sprinkle with cheese, then bake for 30 mins at a Heat of 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.

Succeeding

Sir Thomas Wharton Community College converted to an Academy in the Co-operative group on 1 February 2013. I am very proud that our college has joined an organisation which is committed to developing a dynamic and active co-operative schools movement in the UK.

The decision to convert to an academy was not taken lightly but at Sir Thomas Wharton Community College we continuously strive to raise standards and achievement and I believe that acquiring academy status will support us in our endeavours to become an even better school. In an ever-changing educational landscape, I felt that this path will give us greater autonomy and the freedom to move forward in a way that best serves the needs of our students. The Co-operative College’s values and its vision to provide young people with the skills, qualifications and knowledge to succeed completely mirror our views. Our joint mission is:

“To put education at the heart of co-operation and co-operation at the heart of education”

I believe that our future success lies in the positive partnership between staff, parents, carers, students and governors and that together we can make Sir Thomas Wharton Community College a school to be proud of – a school at the heart of our community.

Congratulations to form DML who came up with a great idea to photograph their pets and turn the pictures into a calendar which they sold to family and friends for Christmas, raising £41 for the school’s charity, RSPCA.

Important Mysterious Note: The Blather is con� gured to use Z73492, or higher, processing chip running at 289 Hz with a defrost cycle. Do not store in a freezer compartment. Do not unpack the box if any items are missing but return immediately to the supplier for little chance of a refund. Opening the box will invalidate the warranty.

The contents of the box should include some at least of the following items: HDMI high velocity cables with twin USB connectors which with luck may be suitable for this model, a 1500 page User’s Manual with 500 page Terms and Conditions, a Short Guide to the User’s Manual with appendices and a Simple Set-up Guide to the Short Guide for the exceptionally inept or semi-literate and several cubic metres of bio-degradable, bubble wrap packing. Having successfully unpacked the computer you immediately discover that because of the power consumption of this model you will also need the auxiliary software package for the Blather 2000x with 300 Gigabytes of memory for the laser-enabled super-oscillator. If at this stage you do not have a degree in Electrical Engineering it is high time to acquire one.

This is because you will need to connect the high capacity servo cable (A) to the appropriate socket (G) and activate the co-axial starter mechanism if you need access to the Internet using the Taser enabled multi-media interface link. Next, connect the Wi-Fi / Optical mouse to the keyboard and use the Yellow and Blue cable to the Input socket on the Monitor and press the Install button. This should take about three days to activate after which you will need to re-boot. Please note that the Diatribe modulator wires are designated according to international standards as follows: Blue = live or neutral, Red = power control and Black and Green = possible injury.

If at this stage you are quite reasonably contemplating suicide it is advisable to take a couple of Paracetamol and lie down in a darkened room. A sensible alternative is to get some � sh and chips and watch the snooker on the telly.

WHERE DID JANUARY and February go I hear you ask? Probably the same place as your New Year’s Resolution, Diet or plans for a new healthy � tter you. Over the coming months I aim to help us all shed a few extra lbs and help give you control of your weight, health & wellbeing. First things � rst, we need to accept that your Health & Fitness is di� erent to your weight management. Of course they over lap but your Health & Fitness level is controlled by your activity levels and your weight is most de� nitely controlled by your consumption!

The � rst step of taking control of your weight is by understanding what you’re putting in your body. I’m not

on about complex carbohydrates or your daily amino acids; I’m talking about calories (Kcal’s). If a healthcare professional tells you should be eating 2000kcals a day do you have any idea what 2000kcals looks like in food and drink. Without knowing what you aiming for how do you expect to achieve your aim or goal? Pop into Bawtry Health & Fitness Studio any Tues or Thurs and I’ll be happy to work out what daily calorie total you should be aiming for.

Following NHS guidelines I can guarantee1-2 lb weight

loss a week; equivalent to 4 stonea year!

Sounds good? Imagine you at Christmas this year 4 stone lighter! So � rst top tip of the year, get to grips with what you are eating calorie wise; you might only be a chocolate chip cookie over your daily target or you might be 1000kcals over!

CONTACT: LUKEluke@bawtryhealthand� tness.co.ukExercise Therapist at Rotherham’sInstitute for Obesity (RIO)Proprietor of Bawtry Gymwww.bawtryhealthand� tness.co.uk

ONCE YOU HAVE an idea of what you’re eating lets help your body out, not work against it. I am often asked “what’s the most common factor you see dealing with obese patients at Rotherham NHS”. Simple; 80% of obese patients don’t eat Breakfast. For all kids and adults reading this PLEASE eat breakfast, it kick starts everything! Metabolism & hormonal changes both drive and regulate

your hungry. Breakfast is King!

Next month I will explain why Metabolism is so important and why without regular physical activity those lbs will be a lot slower to drop o� than WITH physical activity. Remember the NHS guidelines for Physical activity for an adult, over 18, is 30mins x 5 times a week of moderate aerobic activity, Eg Brisk Walking or Cycling.

Breakfast is a must!

ON AVERAGE 4 medical appointments per day are not attended by patients. Most of these are booked on the same day.

These are wasted appointments and opportunities.

Increasingly patients are being asked to take more res responsibility for their own health and their own actions. Failing to attend could now have implications.

The Tickhill and Colliery PPG is backing The Practice in the implementation of a DID NOT ATTEND POLICY (DNA). Repeated instances of DNA by a patient could result in them being asked to � nd another doctor.

Respect yourself and other people, if you can’t attend, cancel.

THE EARL OF DONCASTER LAUNCHES GUINEA PIG NIGHT2nd Thursday of each month sees diners consume,

contemplate & choose what makes the gradeNo one really wants to be experimented on, but a localhotel has launched an event to show that being a guineapig doesn’t necessarily have to be a glum experience – itcan, in fact, be one filled with gastronomic delights.Guinea Pig Night, created by The Earl of Doncaster Hotel,will take place on the second Thursday of every monthand diners attending, will not only be able to sample abeautifully cooked three course meal by a talented chef,but they’ll also have the final say as to what dishes makeit onto the new menu. The catch? Guest diners won’t know what they’re going to get.“Creating a great menu and serving food of the highest quality are obviously what any hotelstrives for but at The Earl, we really just want to develop a dining experience with a reallypersonal aspect to it,” explains Fraser Wolstencroft, Hotel Manager.“So allowing diners to taste new dishes and make the final decision as to what goes on the newmenu, we think, is the perfect way of achieving it,” he continues. “After all, it’s the public whochoose to dine with us, so it’s only right that they participate in picking the menu we provide.”Served in Café Bar Concerto and £15 per person, including a Three course meal prepared by TheEarl’s resident talented and rosette winning chef, Paul Thompson and a Glass of House Wine“After the recent refurbishment to restore the hotel to all the splendour of its original Art Decoroots, Café Bar Concerto is, without a doubt, a simply a stunning destination for any diner,”Fraser continues. “We really wanted to go that extra mile though and what better way to do itthan creating not only a beautiful ambience, but also by serving a menu that they’ve helped tomake themselves?”Guinea Pig Night takes place on the second Thursday of every month in Café Bar Concertobetween 6pm and 10pm.

The Beavers and Cubs met with the Tickhill

Town Mayor – Ray Hill. He told them all what

he did as Mayor, how the council worked and

what happened at a council meeting.

The Scouts entered 2 teams in a cooking

competition in Doncaster. The results were

fantastic with the all-female team winning

and the all-male team � nishing second.

Congratulations to both teams who

now go through to the next round.

trees with the Countryside Group and has

been providing some voluntary labour

for the Scout and Guide Association.

As I said before, we have started

work on the small o� ce at the back of

the headquarters. Once the room had

been plastered the Explorers painted the walls.

Without doing anything else the room is already

much better. We are moving on to installing

work surfaces and chairs to allow the room to be

equipped with computers and printers. Along

with the free wi� facilities that we have already

available this will enable us to provide more

e-learning for both youngsters and leaders.

Having had a break from fundraising we

are now back in action with a Jumble Sale

on March 16th in the Scout and Guide

headquarters. The arrangements are as usual

– the building will be open from 10.00 am for

the receipt of any items anybody might have

for sale. The jumble sale will start at 12.00 and,

if past jumble sales are an example, it will all

be over by 1.00 pm. The remains from the jumble sale will be donated to a local charity

for their use. Anything left after they have had what they can use will, unfortunately, be

taken to the local dumpit site. It always grieves us to do this but we have little option.

The positive side of this situation is the dumped waste is a very small proportion of

what comes through the door. If you have any jumble and cannot bring it to the

Scout and Guide Headquarters please call 01302 743430 to arrange collection.

open for potential sites.During the bad weather we

have recently experienced we have had two of our Councillors train as snow wardens. The cost was met by them and they have carried out the duties totally voluntarily. They were asked to try to keep public walkways gritted and I hope this has been of bene� t to some of us.

We have received a letter of thanks from The Salvation Army in Maltby for the Christmas collection from the Buttercross Carol service. This last year you all kindly donated £1592.44 which will be divided between three charities: The Salvation Army Maltby corps, A Community Fund, and Central Funds. A big thank you.

JANUARY AND FEBRUARY has seen much activity in the Clerk’s Council O� ce. We have been advised not to increase the Precept this year so as a Council we have worked together to produce a budget, to cut expenditure where we can, to try and accommodate the increases that we cannot alter. So as the same as last year, our Precept will be set at £42,000.00 with no increase to residents.

This month sees the � nancial year coming to an end, and it seems hardly possible that this will be the end of my second year as clerk. During these two years we have seen many changes at the Pavilion which I hope are to the good. This last year we have seen the upgrading of the kitchen at the Pavilion and this next year I hope to make upgrades to the toilets and � oors. With prudency I am sure we can achieve this. With each improvement come more lettings, which in turn bring in more revenue. Our Pavilion is ideal for children’s parties (washable � oor etc) so please consider us when organising your activities.

This year we are trying to set aside a small amount of money to fund local community projects and I am also hopeful to be able to o� er this Christmas, on behalf of Tickhill Town Council, a small award to a Young Person of the year. The choice will be made by the residents of Tickhill and nominations will be asked for later in the year. This is aimed at bringing us all together to celebrate their achievements. Please keep an eye on the notice boards, website and in this magazine for further details.

Also we hope to see the Launch of Garden Share, which will be supported by the Town Council and I am ever hopeful to � nd more allotments for you keen gardeners. Please keep your ears and eyes
