Crash of XM714 at Barnack 1963
In the autumn of this year, the long awaited book on the Handley
Page Victor by Roger Brooks should finally be published. This will
be by Pen and Sword books of Barnsley, and the price should be about £30.
The information that the people of Barnack who responded to me in
August and since last year regarding the crash of XM714 at Barnack
in 1963, has been very helpful to Mr Brooks especially the newspaper
clippings. The book is very much intended as a reference book and
does have a short section on the Barnack Victor. When I get a copy
of the publisher’s flyer when the book is ready, I shall be
sure to let you all know the full details on the book. Many thanks, Trevor Williams

The Children’s Society
This January I was able to bank £525.05 from the annual box
opening. This was a magnificent effort by everyone, the best since
I have been Hon. Secretary, and on behalf of the Society and the
many children that it helps I thank you all very much. Having a home
collecting box is such an easy way to raise money for a really worthwhile
cause – some people just save copper, others go up to 5p or
10p while others have a total mixture. A full box of copper, 1p and
2p, can amount to at least £7 or £8. And the best bit
is that you don’t miss it! So if anyone would like to have
one of these boxes at home do please get in touch with me either
at church or give me a ring (740387) and I would be delighted to
supply one.
Last year we had a petition called Safe and Sound in our churches
to bring pressure to bear on the Government to ensure that Local
Authorities provided a safe haven for children who have, for whatever
reason, run away from home and several of you signed this. Members
of Parliament also were asked to sign up to an Early Day Motion to
raise awareness in the House of Commons and you will be pleased to
know that our MP, Mr Shailesh Vara has supported this campaign.
Thank you to the Caterers
Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to produce the tasty supper
which followed the licensing service for the Reverend Canon Margaret
Venable. We were catering for approximately 200 people, and with
so many willing helpers, it really was a case of many hands made
light work. We are sure that everyone who attended was more than
delighted with the feast that was set before them.Our most sincere
appreciation for your help and support, from St. John Baptist Church
Social Committee.
May Supper
A date for your diary, May 6th. when St. John Baptist Church will
be holding it’s annual theme supper. This year it will be an
Italian evening. The advance notice will help you to put on your
thinking caps with regard to any fancy dress. Tickets will be available
in April priced at £8.50.
Barnack Cricket Club
At the Club’s AGM in January, when over 40 members were in
attendance, a presentation of plans for a new clubhouse was enthusiastically
received. There is a golden opportunity to create a new facility
with function rooms on a ground floor with cricket changing rooms
above and the task of major fund-raising will now begin in earnest.
Winter practice has started at Stamford School Sports Hall on Sunday
evenings from 7 – 9pm, and has been well attended. New players
are always welcome – the contacts are David Smith (740373)
or Paul Hart for under 17’s (740674).
The Club is actively seeking an umpire for 1st XI Sunday matches.
The applicant should have a wide knowledge of the game and preferably
be qualified. A fee of £20 per match is available and anyone
interested should contact David Smith as above.
Finally the usual request at this time of year – would dog
owners please clean up after they have visited the playing field.
The situation is worsening rapidly – you seem to forget that
this is a place of sporting activity with some of the participants
as young as seven!

held on Saturday, 4 March, from 10 am to 11.30 am and we look forward

Bainton And Ashton Buttercross Club
We had an excellent attendance for our A.G.M on Feb. 1st. The chairmans
report recalled our many speakers, activities and outings of the
previous year.
The treasurers report showed a very healthy bank balance and we were
able to give a further £200 to charity. £205 had already
been donated during the year.
The officers agreed to remain as such for another year and we had
two volunteers to join the committee, Jane Joy (whom we are very
happy to welcome) & Linda Green (back to help us again)
Our programme for 2006, beautifully printed out this year by Pat
Stott, was discussed and I hope approved off. The evening ended with
a very tempting raffle, coffee & biscuits and a good chat.
Our next meeting is Wed. March 1st when Mr. Moyse, the Hon. Sec.
of the John Clare Society will be giving us a talk with slides on
our local poet. Later in the year we shall be having a guided tour
of Helpston with regard John Clares life there so these two meetings
should link together well. I shall look forward to seeing you then.
All are welcome to our meetings. J. M.
Ceroc night – Saturday 18 March
Get those dancing shoes on and join us for a fun evening of Ceroc.
A fusion of Jive and Salsa, Ceroc is easy to learn, sociable and
fun. Don’t worry if you’ve never danced Ceroc style before – there
will be a fully-qualified teacher to take us through the steps and
moves.
You don’t even need to bring a friend because during Ceroc
everyone changes partners: you usually get to dance with everyone
else in the hall at least once. You can wear what you like, as long
as you’re comfortable. As for shoes, put on a pair that will
allow you to move freely on the dance floor. Go on – give it
a go!
The Ceroc night will start 8 pm in the School Hall. Tickets cost
just £10 and include a Mexican-style meal. Hurry and get you
tickets now from the School Office.

Fun Run – May 2006
How’s your training going for the Fun Run? Not started yet?
It’s not too late. Running can be a good way to get and stay
fit, so why not give it a go? The Fun Run is a great goal to aim
for. We haven’t confirmed the date yet, but watch this space
for more information coming soon.
Barnack Wildlife Watch Club
We re-arranged our February and March meetings as the majority of
the children were going to be on a school trip and would have missed
out on the willow weaving workshop. Sue Kirk, a local artist, has
agreed to visit us on 17 March instead and run the willow and rush
weaving workshop then. All children from both Foxes and Badgers are
invited, but we have to limit the numbers to 20. Places will be allocated
on a first-come, first served basis. There will be one meeting only
in March. Look out for more information soon in the children’s
book bags.
Our February meeting, on 24th, is just for the younger children,
who are not on the school trip. There is no real topic, instead we
plan to play lots of running around games with a wildlife theme:
catch me if you can (predators and prey based on the game ‘bulldog’),
at the bottom of the pond (based on ‘stuck in the mud’)
and there’s a sparrowhawk about (stop/start game based on ‘traffic
lights’). We also hope to make some finger puppets and bird
masks.
Next term’s topics include pond dipping, hedgehogs, damsel
and dragonflies, and a trip to Swaddywell Pit nature reserve.
For more information about Barnack Wildlife Watch Club contact Jayne
Lillywhite on 755527.

The
monthly meeting took place on February 13th in the village hall. The
chairman, five councillors, the clerk and fourteen members of the public
were present.
Several matters were addressed under correspondence. A complaint had
been received about the wheelie bins being thrown down obstructing
the pavements and Peterborough Landscape Management team are to be
contacted about improving the pathway on Stamford Road running alongside
the allotments and also to Pilsgate.The former is very muddy and the
latter overgrown in places .A letter is also to be written to the Secretary
of State for Works and Pensions and to our M.P.voicing the council’s
concern over the decision to close card accounts at all Post Offices
which will have a great detrimental effect on village life.
Inspector Mark Rogers addressed the meeting. He is the Section Commander
of Western Sector. The chairman expressed concern about the need for
more traffic calming and speed restrictions on the B1443 owing to the
increased numbers of heavy goods vehicles which use this road instead
of the route suggested to them, which directs them away from the villages.Insp.Rogers
promised to work with the council over this matter but stated that
the main responsibility lies with Peterborough City Council. He then
spoke briefly about crime in the village and urged resident not to
leave valuables in their cars especially when parked at the Hills and
Holes.
There was discussion concerning the roof tiles which are being placed
on new builds within the parish. Both of these are contrary to the
Village Design Statement .Councillors and members of the public expressed
strong disapproval and disappointment at the decision by Peterborough
City Council in allowing these tiles.
The chairman outlined the recent problems concerning the drains on
several roads on the Kingsley estate .A letter has been sent to Anglian
Water stating the council’s grave concern, outlining the course
of action required and asking for their plans to solve this problem
in both the long and short term.
The chairman reported that contrary to rumours, the Airey House site
has not yet been sold by Peterborough City Council.
The full minutes of the meeting are displayed on the notice boards
around the village and on the website at www.barnackparishcouncil.org.
The next meeting will be the Annual Parish Assembly at 7p.m on March
13th followed by the monthly meeting. All are very welcome to attend.

Ufford Parish Council Meeting February 8th 2006
One resident attended. Apologies were received from David Over.
UPC has been informed that PCC‘s Arboricultural team would be
carrying out an inspection of all council owned trees in the parish.
The parish council has not been told but a resident has been notified
that four of the Norwegian maple trees on the hill adjacent to the
Village Hall are unsafe and will have to be felled. A site visit by
a member of the PCC team and parish councillors has been arranged.
There appear to be 4 options:
· Do nothing. This may put buildings at risk.
· Allow PCC to cut down the 4 trees and replant with trees of
their choice. This would result in the loss of one of Ufford‘s
most longstanding & attractive features. The visual appearance
of the village would be affected for the next 50 or more years as there
would always be a discrepancy in the size of the various trees.
· Agree on an ongoing policy of felling and replanting over
the next few years, but this would also result in a potentially uneven
appearance.
· Request PCC to cut down all 13 trees and ask residents to
choose what variety of trees they would like in their place. This might
result in UPC making a small contribution to the cost of replacements.
The next meeting is on March 8th at 8pm there will be a an extended
open forum so that residents can have their say on a matter which fundamentally
affects the visual appearance of the village.
Neighbourhood Watch:
Carol Ashton will be coming to talk to residents.
Correction of statement in February Parish News, UPC pays half of the
Village Hall buildings insurance, not half of the total insurance.

A Rough Night Out
One aspect of Christian faith I have found most stretching over the
years has been care for the homeless. Meeting people who don’t
have this most basic provision for their needs is often deeply challenging.
On St Peter’s Day last year I walked from Peterborough Station
to the Cathedral in the company of a young man who told me he was sleeping
under the bushes near the railway. He had fallen on hard times and
couldn’t find anywhere to stay. I discovered, to my amazement,
that there is no provision for homeless people like him in the city.
All we could do was give him some food and wish him well.
At the annual sponsored sleep-out, organised by Homeless Voice in Northamptonshire
this January, I met a young woman in a similar predicament. The volunteers
who braved a wet and freezing night outside Holy Cross Church in Daventry
told me there is no direct access for people like her into a safe place
where she could find help. Like so many of these vulnerable people,
she was frustrated and frightened. Before dawn she had bolted back
into the darkness from which she had emerged.
Northampton, at first sight, is better off with the Night Shelter on
Oak Street and the Soup Kitchen nearby. Yet the reality is that there
are always more people needing to stay than their 30 beds can accommodate.
There are always new people sliding into homelessness and in this twilight
existence there is still precious little help available.
Is there a way that God’s passion for the world (our declared
inspiration in this diocese) can find in us the energy to help those
most vulnerable people? You may be surprised that, despite official
statistics, near where you live there are people who have no shelter
- human beings who face extremes of weather and the dangers of living
rough.
Can our churches and ecumenical groupings find a way to help? Can we
persuade our fellow citizens and public representatives that the provision
of shelter is a basic human need that no-one here should be without?
+ Frank, Bishop of Brixworth
From the Dean, with thanks:
This month my time as Dean of Peterborough finally comes
to an end and Mary and I move to Wales for another phase in our lives.
Please pray for my successor whoever that may be. There is certainly
still much to be done in guiding the Cathedral to become what it should
be in today's changing world.
A very great deal has been achieved during
the last thirteen years but this has only been possible through the
generosity and support of the people of the diocese and beyond. Thank
you.
The party on 7 January to mark my retirement was a most encouraging
occasion. Some very kind things were said and generous gifts given.
We shall long remember it and Mary joins me in expressing our warmest
thanks to all those involved in this.
I leave conscious however that
what has been achieved would not have been, but for the underlying
strengthening and inspiring presence of the grace of God. It is to
God that we all need to turn in thanksgiving and it is to him that
we all need to look for the future. I hope and pray that what we have
seen in our day will be but a foretaste of what will take place in
the future.
With grateful thanks again for the support and encouragement
we have received from so many across the diocese.
The Very Revd Michael Bunker , Dean of Peterborough
Village church acts fast:
St
Mary Magdalene's Church in Geddington raised over £1200
in a single day for its link parish of St Stephen's, Kamukuywa.
Ven Patrick Pyoko Bititi, parish priest of Kamukuywa, was in the diocese during February with a group from our link Diocese of Bungoma, Kenya.
“Patrick mentioned the need for a school building,” said Canon Giles Godber, parish priest of Geddington, “with a likely cost of £1,200. We wanted to give him the money and were sure that our members would rise to the occasion and that's exactly what they did. 60 individual pledges of £25 were received in the course of one Sunday!”
“We talk about serving God and helping our fellow men and women – it's wonderful when talk turns into action,” said Giles.

Parish Nurse sets to work in Wellingborough :
Lesley
Johnson's spontaneous after church ‘surgery' on a Sunday
morning at St Mark's Wellingborough had become something of a routine.
As an experienced nurse she was often asked for advice about a diagnosis
or how newly prescribed drugs would work. Now, as a fully fledged
Parish Nurse, she has extended the service to others in the local
community.
Lesley was commissioned at a special service at St Mark's on 22 January. She is one of 21 parish nurses in the country who use their healthcare knowledge alongside faith and spiritual understanding.
Parish Nursing began in the 1980s and was introduced into this country two years ago. It is now a growing ecumenical movement.
The nurses are registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council. They are usually volunteers who work a few hours a week, supervised by their church minister, a clinical practitioner and a spiritual director. At St Mark's a grant from the Church Urban Fund helped to cover costs of equipment and transport (pictured).
“My work fits in well with the ministry team at St Mark's”, said Lesley. “The Pastoral Assistants ask questions on behalf of people they visit or refer people to me direct. I can help to make sense of medical information or be an advocate on behalf of a patient who feels overwhelmed.”
“We can already see Lesley's work extending into the local community”, said Revd Mandy Cuthbertson, Vicar of St Mark's. “The residential care home has offered a room for a weekly visit and she is also at our weekly drop in coffee morning”.
There are two other parish nurses in the diocese. Debbie Marsh, a Reader at Oakham, is commissioned this month and Margaret Laws is attached to a Free Church at Moulton.
Farm Crisis Network seeks volunteers:
A
Northamptonshire group of the national charity, Farm Crisis Network,
was launched in October. Their trained volunteers offer much needed
practical help and advice to farmers, farm workers and their families.
They are looking for volunteers with experience of farming.
Other essential qualities are being a good listener, having a non judgemental
disposition and being able to communicate in a positive and caring
manner. Training is provided.
For information contact Graham Hinds
on 01332 602124 or email: grahamhindshotmail.com The contact number
for support is 07002 326326.

The Equal
Opportunities Committee of the Bishop's Council would be grateful to
learn of the experiences of carers in church, and of any assistance
being arranged in the diocese specifically with carers in mind.
