Parish of Uley with and Churches of St Giles, Holy Cross and St Bartholomew The Revd Canon Michael Cozens Assistant Church Wardens 01453 546459 Mrs P Jones 860696 Parish day off - Fri Mr J Wood 860236 Messages listened to daily All bookings for the Church Churchwardens and St Giles Room to Mrs J Rymer 860265 Marion Kee 860364 or Mrs A Hardy 860876 email:[email protected] Normal church opening times are 10:00am - 6:00pm or dusk whichever is earlier www.stgilesuley.org.uk Page 3 A May Letter from Canon Michael Some of you will probably already be aware that there has been a change of Church- warden in the parish. David Valentin has stepped down after a number of years in the role and Ann Hardy was elected to replace him. Churchwardens are elected annually and have to be sworn into office by the Archdeacon at the Archdeacon’s Visitation Service. This year that service takes place on 5th June in Wickwar. At the annual meeting, David was thanked for his years of service and for his contribution to the life of the church and parish. He was presented with a small gift as a token of our appreciation.

Ann Hardy has joined Jo Rymer as Churchwardens for this year. In preparing this letter I looked at the description of the role of the churchwarden. In addition to -hav ing a duty to represent the laity of the parish and ‘co-operate’ with the incumbent, churchwardens have legal responsibility for all the property and moveable goods belonging to a parish church and are required under church law to keep an inventory of valuables and what is known as a ‘terrier of the property’. Churchwardens ‘are expected to lead the parishioners by setting a good example and encouraging unity and peace. They have a particular duty to maintain order and peace in the church and churchyard at all times, and especially during services.’ In relation to this, churchwardens even have powers to apprehend people committing certain offences and to take them before a magistrates court. I had to smile at the last bit; clearly Jo and Ann are to be treated with much respect, just in case they choose to use their powers! We are very grateful to them both for taking on this role.

It occurred to me that there have been other changes of personnel that I should mention. In addition to the role that I have taken on, my colleagues who work with me in have also been taking services in Uley, Owlpen and Nympsfield and will continue to do so. They should also be introduced: The Revd Ian Gardner has lived, worked and worshipped in Dursley for many years and in addition to being self-employed, Ian leads Sunday services as well as taking other services when he can. Ian is married to Sheila who is one of the Churchward- ens in Dursley. The Revd Rowena King is our full-time curate and was ordained in 2015. Rowena is married to Malcolm and they have a 6 year old daughter, Beth, who goes to school in Dursley. Tony King (no relation to Rowena!) is our Reader; a lay minister, who leads and preaches at some services, particularly Evensong, and who also shares in our funeral ministry. Tony is married to Ann and they retired to the area from London.

We are only part of the ministry that goes on in Uley, Owlpen and Nympsfield and we all very much share in ministry with all those who visit the sick and bereaved, maintain our churches and churchyards, prepare and take part in our services, work in the community, including in our schools and, perhaps most importantly, share in a ministry of prayer. I pray for all of them and give thanks to God for their individual ministries. With my prayers and best wishes, Canon Michael Cozens Page 4 TOMBOLA STALLS GAMES TEAS PLANTS CAKES BBQ BAR RAFFLE

If you or someone you know wish to receive local news and reports about events in your town or village, don’t worry, we can help. The Cotswold Vale Talking Newspaper is a group of volunteers based in Dursley and Wotton.

We will give you a free Sound Box to play the memory stick. This is very easy to use and we’ll give lots of help to get you started. Every quarter, we also send out a magazine recording called Kaleidoscope that includes Nature Notes and interviews with local people who have something inter- esting to relate. Our aim is to inform and entertain you in the comfort of your own home in a friendly way.

Da Capo Recent Da Capo meetings have featured European or Russian music. On June 7th the focus will switch to the USA in the first half of the 20th century. After that, our final session before the summer break will be "own choice" on July 5th. Regulars will know it is useful to bring their chosen music to the previous meeting to avoid having me nagging on the phone. Even if you don't have a copy of the music you want to hear, you can still make a request and I'll try to track it down. Looking further ahead, we need to boost our membership to remain viable. If you enjoy classical music, or think you might, then you are just the person we are looking for. No previous experience required, just a willingness to be open to enjoying music that is either beautiful, relaxing or thrilling and sometimes all of these and more besides. We meet at the Pavilion at Shadwell, from 2pm-4pm, on the first Wednesday of each month, with £2.50 to contribute to the room hire and include a break for Tea or Cof- fee. Just turn up on the day, or call Andy on 860043 for more information. Page 7 Seasonal Surroundings : June Since I moved to the country, I'd almost (but not quite) classify myself as a 'twitch- er', as I've become so fascinated with the birdlife. To a city girl, who had never seen them before, the male pheasants were at first sight (and still are) as exotically beau- tiful as a peacock and the hunting birds, like the buzzards and red kites (distin- guishable by their V shaped tails), utterly mesmerising. But one of my favourite things in my garden is also one of the simplest, and that is the tameness of the blackbirds who sit close by when I'm digging the vegetable patches, waiting for a feast of worms - they make me feel like a character in a Beatrix Potter story as we work quietly away together. Being so close to Slimbridge also means the odd international interloper, but some of our own residents are just as exciting. The green woodpecker, which spends much of the day eating ants on the ground and pecks dead wood to build its nest, and the king- fisher, which is like a shiny bolt of blue lightening, are two great examples. I have yet to see an owl in the valley, although I've occasionally heard them. I now have a resident reptile in the garden in the form of a slow worm (which is, in fact, a legless lizard) living next to my veg patch. I am delighted about this as I am told they like to eat slugs. As they are the prey of pheasants, badgers, hedgehogs and cats, they've had to develop some unusual methods of scaring off their predators: first doing a foul smelling number two and then, if that doesn't work, they shed their tail which remains there as a wiggling distraction while the rest of the slow worm crawls away. I've been researching the word 'amphibian' due to the number of frogs, newts and toads in the valley. It comes from the Greek word 'amphibios' which means to live a double life, in this case because these creatures, as adults, spend their time living in both the water and on land. Things I am looking forward to this month: walking waist-deep through the grass on Millenium Green, picnics, washing blowing on the line in the sunshine and vases of fresh flowers picked from the garden (roses, sweet williams, poppies, freesias and irises). Emily Mathisen

What an amazing achievement for Uley School Football Team reaching the Danone National Finals; on the day they played brilliantly but unfortunately did not make it through the group stages against some very tough competition. What a fantastic achievement qualifying for the finals, congratula- tions to the team and to their brilliant coach Steve Large for all of his dedication and hard work.

Page 8 Elderflower Cordial You will need • Sugar 1.8kg • Very hot water 1.8 litres • Elderflower sprays about 25 • Citric acid 1 tbsp • Limes 3 • Lemon 1 Method 1. Put the sugar into a preserving pan (or large pan) and pour on the hot water, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Cool for 20 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, gently shake the flower heads over the sink to remove any dust and insects (try to keep as much pollen on the flowers but do remove any bugs) 3. Snip off all the main stalks, leaving only the floral sprigs. 4. Carefully push the flowers down into the warm sugar syrup and add the citric acid. Stir. 5. Peel a third of the thin outer rind from the fruit and add to the pan, then slice the semi-peeled fruit and add it, too. 6. Stir everything together, cover tightly and keep in a cool, dark place for 24 hours. 7. Strain through muslin into a clean pan, then bottle up the cordial (into sterilised bottles) 8. Make up the cordial to drink with sparkling or still water. Notes: Serves just around 2 litres. This should keep for up to 1 month in the fridge. This also freezes well, in a sterilised plastic container. Leave plenty of room in the container for the liquid to expand as it freezes. Be careful when opening older bottles of cordial as they may have started to fer- ment

Using your cordial Boozy - English Garden Cocktail Pour 20ml elderflower cordial and 20ml gin into your flute and fill the glass with ice-cold prosecco.Decorate with a tiny top-sprig of fresh mint and a curl of cucum- ber peel over the top of the glass. Not Boozy – Elderflower Refresher Put the juice of 1 lemon & 1 lime into a tumbler and add a handful of mint leaves. Muddle the mint leaves with the back of a spoon to break the mint leaves up a little. Add ice, a measure of your elderflower cordial and fridge-cold sparkling water to taste. Or… Just pour a little neat over dairy ice cream Jenny Russell

Page 12 WI DIARY MAY 2017 Another great month: Nell Gifford delighted us all with her account of how she came to set up the most popular and successful circus around at a time when circuses were generally not thriving. She cer- tainly showed us what you can do with a bit of grit and determination, not to mention bravery! Karen Hilliard's ceramics class was great fun and enjoyed by all. We learned how to make delicate porcelain tea light holders, at least Karen's examples were delicate. We have yet to see what the class produced as they have to be fired. Record numbers attended our spring group meeting which was held in the presence of His Majesty King Henry VIII and was hugely enjoyable. Magnificent in his court finery His Grace entertained us with his account of his life and marriages from his point of view, pointing out that one doesn't often get the chance to hear about historical events 'straight from the horse’s mouth'! After a Tudor ploughman’s supper we were fur- ther entertained by an actor called Tony Strange, who spoke of his life and work as an interpreter of historical characters in costume. Coincidentally he is most famous for his Henry VIII, but as our two speakers never appeared together it was hard to judge the likeness. We were so taken with Tony that he is to be invited back next year to give us one of his other characters, and there are fifteen to choose from! Sally Lamerton

Village Hall update The Village Hall now has an updated sound system available for all to use. Thanks go to George White and Norman Leete who between them designed, purchased and installed the necessary equipment. New cupboards to house the equipment have been fitted at each end of the Hall. A set of instructions attached to the cupboard at the entrance end of the Hall, has been created to give users an outline of how to set up and use the system. Initial reports by users have been very encouraging. All of this was made possible by an award from the Uley Community Shop last year (2016).The storeroom with the user group cupboards has been repainted and the ceiling repaired, now we just need to get some smart label holders for the cupboard doors. Playgroup have kindly removed two notice boards from the committee room and donat- ed them to the two Art Groups who have put them up in the main hall, with the object of displaying their work. In addition, now that the committee room is clear a picture rail has been installed so that framed paintings can be displayed by the Art Groups, or any of the villagers who might be interested to do so. This year we are again very grateful to have just received another award from the Uley Community Stores and this will enable us to have the floors of the toilets retiled. It is intended to have this done during the school summer holidays to enable ease of access. However, it is probable that some disruption will occur as certain meetings and events will not be able to take place while this is going on. Finally, it is the intention of Mike Groom our Maintenance Manager and myself as Com- mittee Chairman to resign at the AGM in Feb 2018. Therefore, we are giving advance notice that we would like to have two volunteers to fill those two positions to help look after this lovely old asset of the village. Ideally we would like to know by the time of our October Committee Meeting in order that we can organise a smooth transition of responsibilities. Ted Collett Chairman Uley Village Hall Committee Page 13 Village Agent News for June 2017 We know that Severn Trent Water supply water to our homes but I have recently learnt about how they help in other ways. • There is Watersure. This is a national scheme to make sure low-income customers don’t cut back on how much water they use because they are worried about how they will pay their bill. People are eligible if there are 3 or more children under 19 in the household or, if there is an individual in the household who has a medical condition that increases water usage AND the family is in receipt of means tested benefits (including pension credit). • Water Direct is a government scheme aimed at assisting those who are unable to budget or are struggling to pay their bills, and therefore are getting into arrears. This -re lates to customers who already have arrears of £50.00 or more and who are in receipt of particular benefits. Deductions are taken at source and paid directly to STW. • Personalised Service. The “priority service register” exists to ensure that, if there is a supply issue, they can identify and give extra support to those customers who need it. This includes people who have a medical condition, mobility needs, a visual impairment, a mental health condition or have a temporary need. Registered customers will receive priority notification of planned work, priority notification in case of any emergency and an alternative water supply where needed. Anyone who needs to register for the service can do so by phoning 0800 085 4986 or online at http://priority.stwater.co.uk • There is a range of services that might make life a bit easier for some people, for ex- ample, alternative formats for bills etc. to help those with particular needs like colour blindness, dyslexia , braille and large print . Or contact can be arranged to be by BT-text, email or audio. • Password Protection. This is my personal favourite in a society where we hear so often of bogus callers. A customer can set up a password. It works like this: if someone knocks on your door saying that they are from Severn Trent Water they will know your personal password. If he doesn’t know it, then he is not from Severn Trent. • Water Efficiency Products.hese T are some free water saving gadgets that you can send away for. I gave this a try and the items arrived very promptly. On offer are a range of items such as water saving crystals, shower timer and a shower save regulator. To find out more about the above call freephone 0800 085 4986 or go to www.stwater. co.uk Should anyone be with a different water company it would be worthwhile contacting them as they will probably offer similar services, or let me know and I will help with any query.

Page 15 ULEY PARISH COUNCIL UPDATE The Annual Parish meeting covered a variety of topics, including a presenta- tion by one of our local community policemen about crime in the local area. There was also a very positive discussion about the annual fireworks display in Uley, and what could be done with regard to improving parking in the village. Some good ideas came up as a result and further consultation will take place between the Millennium Green Trust and the organisers. The Parish Council has been notified that a site is being sought in this area by Vodafone and Telefonica to increase coverage in the Uley Valley. No site has yet been identified, but it is likely that this could involve the installation of a mast. Recent Government legislation makes gaining planning permis- sion for this type of transmitter much faster and easier than it used to be, and more difficult to prevent. Any further developments will be advertised on the village website at http://uleyparishcouncil.gov.uk/ and any interested parties should please watch out for news . The PC would like to consult as widely as possible about this, but cannot do so until further details are published or a planning application is submitted, and may not have much time to work with.
