MAY <strong>2019</strong> 11<br />
Dear Readers,<br />
Changing times<br />
I had a lovely message from Jonathan last month, I am glad you enjoyed reading my<br />
article <strong>and</strong> here is the answer to your question. You can read my pages from previous<br />
years by typing the following address into your browser http://tiny.cc/0xci5y I hope you<br />
find this helpful.<br />
This month I had to take a step back in time. I am writing this article today on a laptop<br />
which is older than my 9 year old dog as regrettably on a recent trip away, my normal<br />
laptop broke <strong>and</strong> I am waiting for Lenovo to come <strong>and</strong> repair it. I was dreading making<br />
the service call as my Spanish isn’t great but it was actually very simple <strong>and</strong> could be<br />
done online. However, the machine I am presently using is about 10 years old <strong>and</strong><br />
running Windows 7 which I love. I had forgotten some of the nice things about this<br />
programme having moved to Windows 10 some time ago.<br />
Anyway, yesterday was my twin girls’ fourth birthdays. I have been thinking about how<br />
their lives have changed in the last four years, <strong>and</strong> equally how things have changed in<br />
the PC world. In 2015 Apple Pay became commonplace on new iPhones <strong>and</strong> I don’t<br />
know where I would be without it now. I often leave my “man bag” at home when<br />
shopping or eating out <strong>and</strong> just take my phone as it’s so easy to make secure<br />
payments. Smart devices started to take off <strong>and</strong> the introduction of “Smart Home”<br />
devices became available to the common man. Alexa <strong>and</strong> Google Home came out the<br />
year before, <strong>and</strong> the technology in the area of VA (virtual assistants) exploded<br />
overnight. Only this year Amazon announced they have sold over 100 million devices.<br />
We have an abundance of smart devices now. We were away last week, <strong>and</strong> I logged in<br />
to the CCTV system to make sure everything was OK, turned on different lights around<br />
the house, remotely turned on Alexa to play music reasonably loudly <strong>and</strong> we even<br />
spoke to the bird, much to his surprise!<br />
I wonder where we will be in four years’ time? Things are progressing so fast <strong>and</strong> there<br />
are a number of predictions. Solar technology will increase massively, electric cars will<br />
be everywhere (not hybrids), high speed space travel <strong>and</strong> even AI (artificial intelligence)<br />
could be in every shopping center. Will we have any privacy? What do you think?<br />
As always, questions <strong>and</strong> comments are welcome. Please do contact me, Andy, at<br />

A competitor’s impressions on<br />
the L<strong>and</strong>s End Trials from 1929<br />
….. Entering the check at <strong>Lynmouth</strong> we were<br />
immediately signalled on, <strong>and</strong> continued our<br />
climb of <strong>Lynmouth</strong> Hill, keeping well over to the<br />
right.<br />
BEGGARS ROOST We were delayed for a few<br />
minutes on Barbrook Mill, <strong>and</strong> on being signalled<br />
on, moved up to the starting line for the climb of<br />
Beggars Roost. The re-start here this year was<br />
with the front wheels, definitely on the "gradient"<br />
<strong>and</strong> on being given the signal to •• go " we<br />
began our climb in the first gear, in which we<br />
remained until well over the dreaded hump. The<br />
surface of Beggars Roost this year was certainly<br />
in bad condition, <strong>and</strong> the crowds on the left so<br />
great that few competitors had a chance of<br />
missing the hump. These two reasons probably<br />
account for so many failures, one in five failing.<br />
After climbing Beggars Roost, we found the<br />
refreshments at Lyn Cross very welcome whilst<br />
waiting for the time to re-start. …..<br />

What would you do to improve local health services?<br />
With growing pressure on the NHS – people living longer, more people living with longterm<br />
conditions, <strong>and</strong> lifestyle choices affecting people’s health – changes are needed<br />
to make sure everybody gets the support they need.<br />
The NHS has produced a ten-year plan setting out all of the things it wants health<br />
services to do better for people across the country. Now your local NHS needs to hear<br />
from you about what those changes should look like in your community. Healthwatch in<br />
Devon, Torbay <strong>and</strong> Plymouth are working together on a special consultation entitled<br />
‘What would you do?’– to encourage people to share their views about what changes to<br />
NHS services should look like locally.<br />
As part of the Long Term Plan, people are being asked for their views about how<br />
support services such as cancer, heart <strong>and</strong> lung <strong>and</strong> dementia care could be improved.<br />
They will also be asked to share their ideas on how people can live healthier lives <strong>and</strong><br />
what improvements they think could be made to help people access services quickly.<br />
The research is part of a national survey which is being collated by Healthwatch<br />
Engl<strong>and</strong>. The survey is also available in British Sign Language <strong>and</strong> Easy Ready formats,<br />
please contact Healthwatch Devon for more information.<br />

BHWT breaks ground on the UK’s<br />
first hen welfare & education centre<br />
The British Hen Welfare Trust, the country’s leading hen rehoming<br />
charity, is pleased to announce that work has now commenced on<br />
its first facility dedicated to the welfare of ex-battery hens.<br />
Affectionately named “Project Vicky” the 250 square metre<br />
contemporary building will offer a state-of-the-art rehoming centre as well as space for<br />
educational institutions, businesses, vets <strong>and</strong> other professionals to visit <strong>and</strong> learn more<br />
about how the charity revolutionises the lives of hens rescued from slaughter.<br />
Situated at the charity’s headquarters in Rose Ash, North Devon, the building has been<br />
designed <strong>and</strong> will be furnished purely with chickens in mind. It will boast a fully-equipped<br />
veterinary clinic <strong>and</strong> will have access to specialist veterinary surgeons to treat any<br />
chicken that requires extra care <strong>and</strong> attention. Most of the hens rehomed by the BHWT<br />
have lived in cages for 18 months, st<strong>and</strong>ing on nothing but wire <strong>and</strong> most have never<br />
had access to the outdoors. The centre will comprise two distinct parts allowing one end<br />
to be used for rehoming while the other will feature a central coop for hens with a<br />
walkway around the outside to allow for demonstrations. The walkway will include oneway<br />
glass so as not to overwhelm the hens when their visitors arrive. In addition to the<br />
downstairs elements of the building it will also feature a second floor with ample office<br />
space, future-proofing the charity’s expansion.<br />
Project Vicky will allow the charity to help hens not just in Devon, but also in a much<br />
broader sense via its educational work. The charity’s Education Team is putting together<br />
information <strong>and</strong> course material with a view to training veterinary students around the<br />
country both online <strong>and</strong> with instructional visits to the new facility. It is expected that<br />
Project Vicky will be welcoming its first batch of hens rescued from slaughter by the end<br />
of <strong>2019</strong>. Project Vicky has been fully-funded by public donations.<br />
Jane Howorth MBE, Founder of the British Hen Welfare Trust <strong>and</strong> the driving force behind<br />
the new centre, said: “Project Vicky has been a long time coming <strong>and</strong> it’s thanks to every<br />
single person who has ever rehomed hens from us, fundraised for us or simply spread<br />
the word about our beloved hens to their friends <strong>and</strong> family. Vicky was among the first<br />
flock I rehomed in 1995 <strong>and</strong> the bond I formed with her led me to realise that chickens<br />
are far from being just farm animals. They are intelligent, full of character <strong>and</strong><br />
individuality <strong>and</strong> make the most wonderful pets - in the same way as cats <strong>and</strong> dogs. Vicky<br />
would be so proud of what has been achieved in her name.”<br />
Local building firm, Woofenden Construction, is the main contractor on this innovative<br />
build. Neil Woofenden, Managing Director, said: “As a family-run business whose core<br />
values are built around sensitive <strong>and</strong> sustainable construction we are absolutely<br />
delighted to be working with the British Hen Welfare Trust on this exciting project.”<br />

Police Surgeries <strong>Lynton</strong> Police hold surgeries so that residents<br />
<strong>and</strong> visitors can come along <strong>and</strong> chat with PCSO 30366<br />
Grace Cleverdon about anything that might be worrying them.<br />
<strong>Lynton</strong> Surgery is held on a Tuesday afternoon 3-4pm every week<br />
for 3 weeks out of 4. Challacombe Surgery is held at The Black<br />
Venus Inn once every 4 weeks from 2-2.30pm. Brendon is held once every 4 weeks in<br />
The Staghunters Inn 5.30-6pm. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A NEW DAY & TIME we are trying out<br />
to see if it suits residents better. Come along <strong>and</strong> have a chat, sometime just talking helps.<br />
For dates <strong>and</strong> times of the surgeries please see below.<br />
Pavements are for people not cars <strong>Lynton</strong> Police recently received several complaints<br />
about vehicles parked on pavements in different locations in the area. Pavements are not<br />
designed to carry the weight of a vehicle <strong>and</strong> parking on them can cause damage <strong>and</strong> trip<br />
hazards for pedestrians as well as increase maintenance costs. To report a vehicle parked<br />
on the pavement complete an online form at www.devon.gov.uk or call 0845 155 1004.<br />
If pavement parking is causing a wilful obstruction or there is a danger, phone the police<br />
on 101. The police can issue tickets for obstruction <strong>and</strong> Civil enforcement officers can<br />
issue parking tickets for parking on double yellow lines.<br />
Summer Madness Motorcycle safety Devon & Cornwall Police are urging motorcyclists to<br />
stay safe on the region’s roads this summer. The Royal Society for the Prevention of<br />
Accidents (RoSPA) lists five main types of collision involving motorcycles <strong>and</strong> at number<br />
one is failure to negotiate bends on rural A roads. Here are Devon & Cornwall Police’s top<br />
tips for motorcycle safety: Always wear protective clothing : Always be visible : Take extra<br />
care when riding on unfamiliar roads : Be aware of other vehicles : Adhere to the Highway<br />
Code <strong>and</strong> ride to the level of your ability : Never stop learning – continually improve riding<br />
skills <strong>and</strong> awareness. In summary, take care, stay aware <strong>and</strong> protected <strong>and</strong>, above all,<br />
enjoy safe riding across Devon <strong>and</strong> Cornwall. For more information see<br />

Polite reminder to local businesses - Have you got a licence<br />
to put out tables <strong>and</strong> chairs on the pavement?<br />
As forecasters predict warmer weather Devon County Council is reminding cafés,<br />
restaurants <strong>and</strong> pub owners that a pavement licence is needed before they’re able to put<br />
out tables <strong>and</strong> chairs. It’s to avoid footpaths becoming blocked to wheelchair users,<br />
buggies or prams or causing difficulty for people with reduced mobility.<br />
Sometimes pavements are too narrow to have tables or chairs so the licence application<br />
considers the width of the footpath <strong>and</strong> the impact there would be on the public. The<br />
licence sets out how many tables <strong>and</strong> chairs can be put out <strong>and</strong> where they should be.<br />
Neighbouring businesses or residents are asked whether they would mind before an<br />
application is decided. And highways officers can ask business to move tables or chairs if<br />
a licence hasn’t been permitted or if they’re putting out furniture that isn’t as per their<br />
permission. And there could be a fine.<br />
A licence costs £85 a year to renew or £200 if it’s new. They are non-transferable so a<br />
new licence would be needed if there’s a change of business ownership. They are<br />
available from Devon County Council, except Exeter, Teignmouth, Newton Abbot <strong>and</strong><br />
Totnes where local councils administrate them.<br />

I HAD THAT!<br />
A treasure trove of nostalgic toys from the 1960’s to 1980’s waiting to be<br />
rediscovered. See games, toys, action figures <strong>and</strong> especially original Star Wars toys.<br />
This is a new venture for owners, Tony <strong>and</strong> Lorraine, who moved to <strong>Lynton</strong> from<br />
Bristol last July. Tony left a 30 year career in the aerospace industry to fulfil a<br />
dream to house his large toy collection. <strong>Lynton</strong> was the perfect choice as they had<br />
always wanted to live close to the sea.<br />
The museum <strong>and</strong> shop are now open <strong>and</strong> already generating interest amongst locals<br />
<strong>and</strong> visitors. Every visitor to the museum is heard to say “I had that!” There is an<br />
entrance fee to the museum, prices can be found on Facebook or their website.<br />
The shop also buys <strong>and</strong> sells retro toys. If you have anything you want to sell, why<br />
not pop in <strong>and</strong> see Tony. Why not visit <strong>and</strong> take a nostalgic visit back to your<br />

The Vintage Mobile Cinema: Audrey – August Availability<br />
Over the last few years the Edinburgh Festival has<br />
been a key part of Audrey's schedule.<br />
It's been a massive endeavour <strong>and</strong> the financial<br />
benefits have been essential in helping raise the<br />
funds to cover her overall running costs.<br />
Very late in the day Edinburgh Council sadly decided to increase the rates for the<br />
George Street closure to such degree that Audrey cannot attend the Fringe this year.<br />
And things don't bode well for her returning in future years.<br />
This is very bad news <strong>and</strong> to happen at such late notice is unacceptable.<br />
To mitigate the situation a little we need to find as many events as we can to fill the<br />
August schedule. We've had a number of August enquiries in the past but been unable<br />
to accept these due to Edinburgh Festival.<br />
Please do get back in touch if you have space/budget for Audrey at your event.<br />
For more information about Audrey, the last remaining Vintage Mobile Cinema <strong>and</strong> how<br />
you can book her for your event visit http://www.vintagemobilecinema.co.uk/<br />
Hotbuckle Productions present<br />
Jane Eyre<br />
by Charlotte Bronte<br />
Saturday 22 June <strong>2019</strong><br />
7:00pm at Manor Green, <strong>Lynmouth</strong><br />
(indoors at <strong>Lynton</strong> Town Hall if very wet)<br />
Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, <strong>and</strong> little, I am<br />
soulless <strong>and</strong> heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul<br />
as you — <strong>and</strong> full as much heart!<br />
The young, orphaned Jane meets with cruelty at the h<strong>and</strong>s of her<br />
aunt <strong>and</strong> then at the school to which she is banished. She<br />
eventually finds her freedom <strong>and</strong> becomes governess to the<br />
daughter of the enigmatic Mr Rochester at Thornfield Hall.<br />
As Jane <strong>and</strong> Rochester’s relationship grows, it is overshadowed<br />
by doubt, dark shadows <strong>and</strong> terrible secrets <strong>and</strong> she must choose<br />
between passion <strong>and</strong> reason.<br />
Following the success of Wuthering Heights, “… beautifully h<strong>and</strong>led … this is the company’s best<br />
yet” (BBC Radio Shropshire), <strong>and</strong> Far From the Madding Crowd, “… a magical production” (The<br />
Stage), Hotbuckle bring their inventiveness, humour <strong>and</strong> unique magic to Brontë’s compelling tale.<br />
TICKETS: £13.00 Full, £10.00 Supporter, Families £10 per person (Parent/s with child/ren under<br />
18 yrs). To buy your tickets, phone the Box Office on 01805 624624 or book online<br />

Every so often Sam at the 'Ancient Mariner bar'<br />
decides to exercise her awesome powers of<br />
persuasion <strong>and</strong> galvanise people into action. On<br />
this occasion she decreed that there should be<br />
a jam session. Everyone who could more-or-less<br />
hold an instrument was told to report for duty.<br />
And didn't they just! A serried rank of eager (or<br />
were they just scared of Sam) guitaristas lined<br />
the wall, flanked by an accordianista <strong>and</strong> a<br />
Cajun drummer. There were actually TEN guitarists who just kind of clunked along, the<br />
accordionist squeezed <strong>and</strong> the drummer banged. Fortunately it wasn't the usual sort<br />
of jam session. Sam was in the middle of the melee <strong>and</strong> held the whole thing together<br />
<strong>and</strong> provided suitable songs for the clunkers, squeezers <strong>and</strong> bangers to play to. It<br />
always feels like a privilege to be around Sam when she is performing; her amazing<br />
voice blends perfectly with her beautifully crafted guitar accompaniment to leave the<br />
listener with the memory of a song that would cause the writer to exclaim ‘I hadn't<br />
realised how good that song was until I heard Sam play it.’<br />
But despite her abilities Sam didn't 'hog it'. Every<br />
so often she would say 'Does anyone fancy doing<br />
a song? Come on! It's an open session, come <strong>and</strong><br />
have a go!’ Several did <strong>and</strong> a wealth of talent<br />
slowly emerged from the ranks. However, things<br />
changed when it was decided that 'Old-Geezer-<br />
Plays Guitar' should be booted from his dark <strong>and</strong><br />
damp corner under the settee. Never one to say<br />
'never' he happily grinned <strong>and</strong> dribbled his way<br />
through some old rock numbers. The rank of guitarists clunked along but Sam averted<br />
disaster by dropping exquisite harmonies into appropriate bits of the song. It was a<br />
great night, much enjoyed by a pub full of drinkers <strong>and</strong> players alike <strong>and</strong> there will now<br />
be a regular jam session on the second <strong>and</strong> fourth Sunday of each month. Come along<br />
with your favourite instrument, even if it is only your voice, <strong>and</strong> you will be sure of a<br />
great night of musical fun.<br />

Project to rid National Park of non-native species<br />
A major scheme to clear <strong>Exmoor</strong>’s waterways of harmful invasive species has been<br />
launched following a grant of £185,000 through a Water Environment Grant (WEG),<br />
which is funded through the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development <strong>and</strong><br />
Defra.<br />
The new <strong>Exmoor</strong> Non-Native Invasives Species (ENNIS) project - a partnership<br />
between <strong>Exmoor</strong> National Park Authority, Environment Agency, National Trust, Natural<br />
Engl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> Nicky Green Associates - will allow work to control invasives in the<br />
National Park to be radically scaled up <strong>and</strong> extended to new species, through the<br />
procurement of a dedicated project officer for two years along with new equipment<br />
<strong>and</strong> volunteer training.<br />
Many of <strong>Exmoor</strong>’s streams <strong>and</strong> rivers are internationally important wildlife sites, home<br />
to otters, salmon, brown trout, dipper <strong>and</strong> kingfisher, as well as mayflies, dragonflies<br />
<strong>and</strong> damselflies that provide a vital link in the food chain. But non-native invasive<br />
species are a major threat to sensitive habitats throughout the UK, costing the British<br />
economy an estimated £1.7 billion a year according to the GB non-native species<br />
secretariat*.<br />
<strong>Exmoor</strong> National Park has been pioneering in its efforts to tackle the problem, leading<br />
a ten-year collaboration that has cleared an area the size of six Wembley football<br />
pitches of two of Britain’s most invasive weeds – Japanese <strong>and</strong> Himalayan Knotweed.<br />
But with the plant still present across <strong>Exmoor</strong>’s main river systems along with other<br />
invasives, like montbretia, Himalayan balsam, skunk cabbage <strong>and</strong> signal crayfish, a<br />
major effort is still needed to achieve sustained results.<br />
Project leader Ali Hawkins, Wildlife Conservation Officer at <strong>Exmoor</strong> National Park<br />
Authority, said: “All over the country our native species are in trouble. Urgent action to<br />
curb the spread of invasive species <strong>and</strong> restore protected habitats is vital to stop the<br />
problem escalating. This crucial project will allow us to ramp up our volunteer effort<br />
<strong>and</strong> appoint a dedicated project officer, as well as extending our ground-breaking<br />
trials using electrocution to destroy the root system of problem plants, <strong>and</strong> control the<br />
signal crayfish population by trapping <strong>and</strong> sterilising dominant males. We’d love more<br />
volunteers to help by signing up to one of our training days, or reporting sightings of<br />
invasive species online through our Wild Watch scheme.”<br />
As part of the Year of Green Action in <strong>2019</strong>, people are being asked to pledge how<br />
they will do their bit using the hashtag #iwill4nature. Get involved today by signing up<br />
to volunteer for the National Park at www.exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk/getinvolved<br />
<strong>and</strong> by reporting any sightings of invasive species on <strong>Exmoor</strong> at www.exmoornationalpark.gov.uk/wild-watch<br />

bikes from our base at Porlock Weir, as well as running guided E-rides <strong>and</strong> other courses &<br />
