Ken Nockles has been looking at the censuses for Palgrave and has found a number of intriguing facts about the village and its inhabitants. Palgrave is an ancient village and is mentioned in the Domesday Book as having two churches. All of this has prompted the notion of researching and then writing a history of Palgrave. Ken has approached the Community Council with the idea of forming a Palgrave History Group. If you would be interested in getting involved please phone Ken Nockles on 651599.

Andy Murray is doing it; Roy Keane is doing it; so is Andrew Strauss**. Children are doing it and seventy-five year-old grandmothers and grandfathers are doing it. And almost certainly each one of them is benefiting from their yoga practice in their own individual way. People have been practising yoga for thousands of years, so it is truly tried and tested. Yet the west has only relatively recently caught on to the remarkable transformations that can take place in our bodies, our minds, and our beings through the regular practice of yoga. Yoga can be practised at many levels and modified to suit the practitioner, which is why it is accessible to such a variety of different people, and hence the adage: "if you can breathe, you can practise yoga". It is non-competitive, so progress is experienced purely on a personal level. It can help conditions such as depression, low mood and anxiety; it can eradicate tendencies towards excess such as over-eating and instead helps us be moderate in our actions, and thus find our natural weight. Regular practice taps into our ability to welcome gentle discipline into our lives which can help us make better life-choices, and may support our efforts to curb damaging habits in our lives such as smoking or drinking alcohol to excess. It compliments regular physical activities such as running or cycling, and can remove the tension that builds up from sitting in front of a computer for too long. Yoga can build up strength and flexibility and at the same time helps to calm the mind. With links to philosophy and psychology, and surrounded by myths, yoga has many dimensions to it; people choose to experience it at the level that suits them at any particular time. It does make a rewarding and fascinating journey. One of my current Palgrave students summed up her experience as follows: “I absolutely love our yoga class, and come away not only feeling much more supple, but calm and relaxed too.” Perhaps it's time to give it a go?

Each wonderful garden was very different and distinctive. It is amazing to see how different spaces reflect personal styles and they were so inspirational. August 8th is the PGSG Al Fresco lunch to be held in Sheila True’s garden. We meet there at 10.15am to deliver lunch food. Members will then share cars to visit the Bog Garden just off the A143, returning for coffee and lunch. Guests are welcome, dependent upon the number of members attending, for a small payment of £2.50. Anyone interested in the above or in membership of the group please contact Sheila True on 01379 643393 Tip of the Month When weeding this month, watch out for useful self-sown seedlings (foxgloves, forget-me-nots, verbena bonariensis, hellebores, marigolds) and transplant them to a spare patch in the vegetable garden. They will grow rapidly in such luxurious conditions and will be fine plants when moved to their flowering positions in the autumn/winter. Janet Lockett Thought for the Month Gardening … In this the artist who lays out the work and devises a garment for a piece of ground has the delight of seeing his work live and grow hour by hour; and, while it is growing, he is able to polish, to cut and carve, to fill up here and there, to hope and to love. Prince Albert, who played a large part in designing the gardens at Balmoral and Osborne House.
