Editorial by Sarah

“Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat, please put a pennyin the old man’s hat”. An old saying, umm maybe still veryrelevant today, Christmas IS coming, lots of food and money willbe involved you can guarantee that one.Maybe I have covered this in a previous editorial, if I have Iapologise, if I haven't, “I don’t believe it !” (a la Victor Meldrew!).To me, the pure commercialism of the season is totally getting outof hand. I don't for a moment doubt that as I type this, thesupermarkets will be already full of stuff…just so much stuff, sigh.Not only that, but we will be being brainwashed into the pure panicof creating the perfect Christmas for family and friends, andshame on you if you don't manage it. What no fondue, snowywalks, bobble hats, open fires and all the other add ons that thepeople who are trying to prise that last pound out of your frozenfingers want you to believe that you just can’t live without!As I type, the ghost of editorials past is sitting on my shoulder “Youhave covered this before.” The ghost of Christmas present is tryingto muster in “Ah yeah, but this year will be better” and don’t let’sforget the ghost of Christmas future “Next year will be better, I’mnot going to fall for the hype”…bet I do! Why not take half an hourout of your busy pre Christmas day and sit down with a cuppa andenjoy your Journal, “Aah a little calm”……

I'm appalled to hear that the proposed Big FieldWind Farm at Week St Mary is being appealed inthe High Court. Proposals by Good Energy to builda giant wind farm in Week St Mary were rejected by CornwallCouncil, and again by the Planning Inspectorate on appeal.Despite widespread objection from the local community, it is nowbeing appealed in the High Court. I am very disappointed thatdevelopers are failing to listen to the will of local people or acceptthe decisions taken by Cornwall Council and the PlanningInspectorate.The planning applications for the Big Field Wind Farm received alot of scrutiny from local planning officers and national planninginspectors, and was even rejected by the Secretary of State forCommunities and Local Government.I have written in the strongest terms to say exactly what localcommunities think of their legal action and to ask them toreconsider. Local people, local representatives and planningexperts have made judgements on this proposal and they need tobe respected. Meanwhile, I'm very pleased to see that NorthCornwall's schools will be receiving hundreds of thousands ofpounds in extra funding. I've spent the past two yearscampaigning for fairer school funding so that our small ruralschools get the same amount of money per pupil as a school in anurban area. The new formula will see every primary andsecondary school in North Cornwall getting an increase infunding. Recently in Parliament we also celebrated NationalFarming Day to recognise the exceptional work of farmers as foodsuppliers and protectors of the environment. We have realopportunities to better protect our environment reach after weleave the EU, and I will be supporting more protection goingforward.

This Happy Band by Eve Tilsley

We formed a ukelele band and welcomed everyoneWe’ve never joined a group before that’s caused usso much funWe clank into our practice room with instruments so sonicAnd try to look as if we’ve just played with the Philharmonic

We trickle in and take a seat and then take off our coatsAnd then tune up, or down, or sideways with loud discordant notes.We’re given sheets of paper with the words and notes displayedWe try to do our best with them, the teacher looks dismayed!

She raps upon the music stand, “Now girls don’t sing like that!” “You’re sounding just as if someone has trodden on the cat!”We try again to see if we can reach a better stageThen realise that half of us are on a different page!

“Now try a little harder, I’m sure you’ll get it soon”But I’m quite sure it isn’t me, my uke must be off tuneWe set off at too fast a pace, my uke’s the one that lingers‘Cos my tongue and also vocal chords are faster than my fingers.

Our group just plays and while it plays we also like to singBut sometimes if the voice is right we’re strumming the wrong stringWe laugh at one another and have another goAs we’re practising to go and play at some invited show.

Our audience must be surprised we’re so mature a mixAnd think our average age must be at least one hundred and sixWe play at birthday parties or in old people’s placesThey often are younger than us if you look at their faces.

They all seem to enjoy it, sometimes as much as usSo we’ll bring all our stuff and play at anywhere, no fuss.I hope we keep together as our practices are grandSo if there is some discord, it’s NOT “Our happy band.”

CANWORTHY BOOK CLUBThe Moorland Cottage by Mrs GaskellShe wrote this book in 1850 and her style ofwriting was of her era. The plot was fairlybasic/plain to that we are used to these days.We enjoyed its gentleness as a change.

The Good Liar by Nicholas SearleOne review said this bookwas a taut, compulsive

thriller with a dark, intriguing heart. A MrRipley for our time. I don’t think we wholeheartedly agreed but there were several twistswhich were eventually revealed.A well written book which kept our interest butoh so many unfamiliar words, were theynecessary?

Bob‛s Gardening SpotOctober is the best time to make a leaf bin. Justput four 3 foot posts into a square, and fix chickenwire around them. Fill it up with fallen leaves but trynot to include too many birch leaves as they takelonger to rot down.Now is the best time to plant any bare rooted treesor shrubs, but prepare the ground first and give

them a good feed on the root system, fish, blood and bone is ideal.November is also the ideal time for planting tulip bulbs, pot them up andyou can put the pot complete into the garden if you want.Start your winter digging on the veg plot and you can cover the dug partwith a polythene sheet to avoid it getting too wet, but remember not towalk on it after digging.Start pruning apple and pear trees, do this by about one third and cut awayany crossing branches. If you have any questions please contact me via theJournal and I will do my best to help. Happy Gardening!

HIGH TIDES and SUNSET - October and November 2017

As I write this, there are three major hurricanes in the Tropical Atlantic."Irma" has been the most powerful storm in recorded history to makelandfall. I have noticed that those who have a vested interest in the globalwarming industry are already pointing the finger at climate change being thecause, and giving dire warnings of what will happen if "action" is not takento address this.Perhaps, but hurricane seasons vary considerably and whilst trends can beloosely observed, the fact remains that they are even to this day an unpre-dictable science. In any season, the simple law of averages means thatsooner or later you will experience one storm that will seriously affect theTropical Atlantic. July here in Canworthy Water was barely average fortemperatures, and was frequently overcast, only seeing 12 completely drydays. Only the 5th gave a day maximum of 25 degrees, and there was a verywet day on the 21st when 1.36" of rain was collected. The total for the monthwas 3.93 inches, which whilst not unusual for July locally, is still consistentwith previous years, which tend to be indifferent.August was very dull and overcast, only 6 completely dry days were record-ed here and only the 28th managed over 20 degrees, all rather disappoint-ing. The 20th and 21st were affected by the remnant of Tropical Depression"Gert" and there were very humid conditions, with some areas reaching 25degrees to the south of us where there were sunny intervals. A thunderstormwas observed to the distant South East on the 22nd early in the morning,this being only the second recorded this summer - quite unusual even forthe West Country which is not really noted for this phenomenon. The totalrainfall collected was 3.53", of which the 14th contributed the most with0.77inches.So whilst this summer was average, the number of overcast days hascertainly affected the ground here which is now quite muddy in places,which anyone who has large grass areas to cut will have doubtless noticed.I can't see it drying out now unless the Autumn is kind to us!

WEATHERWISE by Monitor

This summer various members of 1st Jacobstowguides have had international adventures! Louisewent to Kenya, Mary to Holland, Sian to Icelandand others went to Kernow ’17, an internationaljamboree right here in North Cornwall. Over thecoming editions you will find out about each ofthese adventures in a bit more detail, starting withLouise’s trip to Kenya.“Saturday 22nd July was a very early start as I hadto meet 33 other girl guide leaders all aged over 30 at 4am at Heathrow. Afterabout 12 hours in the air we landed in Nairobi. After a night in a hotel therefollowed a 6 hour journey in a cramped bus to reach our final destination ofNakuru. The following week we spent volunteering at a local secondary school,where a number of the children lived on the local rubbish tip. We played games,taught first aid, made goal post and wash stands using our skills with wood andrope. The children were really happy that they would be able to recreate these athome so their mothers would no longer have to wash up on the floor. We were alsoable to give them some of the donations that we took with us, including clothes,toys and reusable sanitary towels.That weekend we went to the Masai Mara for a safari weekend, where we werelucky enough to see nearly 30 species of animals including the ‘Big 5’ of lions,Cape buffalo, leopards, African elephants and black rhinos. We were alsowelcomed to visit a Masai Mara tribe.The following week we spent volunteering at a primary and secondary school in themiddle of the Rhonda slum. Here we spent the week teaching, and repainting themud walls. Unfortunately, a couple weeks after we had returned we discovered thatthe school had to move locations at very short notice, due to the land owner askingthem to move on.All in all it was a fantastic experience that I would love to repeat one day. If anylocal groups would like me to give a talk on the experience I would be very happyto, in return for a donation to the African Adventures Foundation which would goto support the projects where I volunteered.”

I would like to thank you for the pop-upgarden at Wainhouse Corner. I go outon my bike about twice a week and my

route takes me from Jacobstow out on to the main roadat Wainhouse Corner. I frequently have to stop and waitas I reach the main road to let traffic pass so I can comeout safely on to the main road. As I sit and wait on my bike I have taken greatpleasure in seeing the progress of the flower bed. I cycle for fitness, but mainly toenjoy the surroundings. Thank you so much for adding to my enjoyment.Celia Proudfoot ( It’s just coincidence that I write for the Journal. I would havewritten in anyway!)

In 1894 plans were drawn up for a new school building on Mr Hooper’s land atHigher Kents. This did not materialise and land at the site was given by R.B. Gill ofLaunceston. On September 9th 1895 the school moved to its new premises. Duringthe upheavals Amos Fry wrote in his log “ I have omitted to give the regularDrawing Lessons… and substituted reading and writing” which he suspected thechildren were not best pleased with. The school was renamed Jacobstow CouncilSchool, the church having no further control over it. Louis de St Paer was head ofthe school in 1911 and his daughter and son would help teach at the school in lateryears. The girls’ playground was separated by a wall from the boys’ playground.There was no canteen so the children took their own lunch which they ate at MrsCowlings’ Pennhallym Cottage. The Head gave book prizes at the end of each yearfor progress and attendance.

Mrs Ruth Leach was a member of the Cory family of Wainhouse Corner. Hermemories were of “Morning lessons in Scripture and Arithmetic, then recitation,essays and reading aloud”. She recalled writing on slates and “the scrape of slatepencils was noisy.” She also recalled that when there was a partial eclipse of thesun, they were taken outside to look at it through pieces of glass that had beenblackened by smoke. In about 1910 a new Grammar School was opened at Budeand a number of places were given each year to pupils in the surrounding area, whosat an entry exam a 11 years of age and, if accepted, were admitted free. Ruth Corywas asked to sit the exam. She remembers Mr St Paer offering to drive her to theexam in his pony and trap. She was horrified to find on the day of the exam, thatwhen she arrived in Jacobstow in good time, Mr St Paer hadn’t even brought thepony in from the field. They arrived half an hour late to the exam, but despite thissetback, Ruth was accepted, and was the first pupil to pass for the Grammar School.

FUTURE OF THE SCOUT HUT1. The Cory Family have informed the Scout Group that the leasefor the plot at Wainhouse Corner will not be extended beyond June2020.The thriving scout group with over 60 children attending bea-vers, cubs and scouts weekly is now looking to identify an alterna-tive meeting place beyond June 2020.2. The Scout Group recognise the generous support of the CoryFamily to lease the land since 1979 (38 years). The Scout Hut isowned by the Scout Group and will have to be removed/clearedfrom the site. It is assessed that it will not survive a move to anotherlocation.3. In the next 12 months the Scout Group will engage with the com-munity, District and National HQs and local community buildings toidentify options.The options at this stage are (but not limited to):● Move to a community meeting hall in the local area● Identify a plot of land ideally close to a community hall● Identify a plot of land suitable for a new building● Merge with another local scout group (not ideal).4. The key considerations are:● Catchment area - siting between Bude, Camelford and Launces-ton Groups.● Land - ideally up to an acre adjoining meeting place.● Cost - rental costs● Funding - new prefabricated building in order of £70,000-£200,000; new build (£1000/sqm). Scout HQ response.5. Key priorities for next 12 months:● Maintain - current hut/site -Keep safe and maintain ash tree.● Engage - Local hall custodians, landowners and Scout HQs.● Build - Broad skilled support group.● Plan - Fund raising campaign and requirements for next 30 years.● Promote - Local media campaign to build support and support fun-draising.● Initiate - Fund raising campaign.This change in circumstances should be viewed as an opportunityto improve and strengthen scouting for children in the local [email protected] or 07403 454326

BUDE AT WAR. The Day The Americans Arrived

I’m sure many of you will have been toBude and seen all the re-enactment.Unfortunately I was away and only heardthe news that Bude was in Devon andthe BBC fell over themselves apologisingto the Bude people!It was a well publicised event and veryprofessionally run by Claire Roberts andher team. I thought the pages in theBude Stratton Post very imaginative andeye catching.

● Over the weekend there were so many interesting thingsgoing on around Bude:

● Morse Coders, EnigmaMachine and Bletchley Parkteam.

● Historical talks, ENSAentertainment and dancetime.

● A Blitz experience.●VintageFashion.●Re-enactment soldiers and machinesaround the town and on the cliffs.On Sunday at the Ranger’s Memorial on topof Summerleaze Downs there was a movingcommemorative serviceFor those who would like to know, BudeHeritage Centre at The Castle has aninteresting display about the AmericanRangers.
