Two days before the “great unlocking” I was working on my sermon for the next day and saw a notification on my phone. It was from the NHS Test and Trace app. Apparently I had been in the vicinity of a person who had tested positive for Covid and that I must self-isolate for 6 days. A bit annoying. Especially as we had our big annual church meeting on the Sunday. I was- n’t too concerned about that, as the PCC members are quite capable of doing what is re- quired. It was more that it was galling to realise that, after a year of visiting and being out and about, I would be locked away for the great unlocking. I suppose I could have found some inventive way around my isolation. I don’t know, per- haps to say that the advice was just advisory; or that I was going to sign up to some pilot scheme which would mean I need not isolate. But that wouldn’t be right. I’ve been spending a lot of the last year asking people to abide by measures which are uncomfortable, unusual, and quite intrusive. And people have been abiding by them. We have all, over the past year, done things we would rather not do, and we have done them, mostly, for the sake of others. Some of those we will be removing, some not. As I write this, we have opened up slightly, started to offer refreshments again after the 10am service; reduced the spaces between pews; asked the choir to sing again. But at the same time, we will continue to ask people who come into our buildings to wear masks; we will be cautious about congregational singing; we will not share the commun- ion cup. And we will do all this, yes to avoid the “ping”, but mostly, out of consideration for each other. We have all lost a lot this past 18 months. Some have lost loved ones, some have lost op- portunities, some have seen their health deteriorate during the isolation. Some have lost the desire to go out, to mingle. But that loss is not the final story, the last word. There is life! Andrew Parry 4 Puzzle from David MacIsaac ANSWER TO JULY PUZZLE 1. GYRATED 2. RIN TIN TIN 3. ERNIE 4. MUNCHKINS 5. LILITH 6.

OUT FIRE DAY WIND HEART TEA Smile Lines from Parish Pump Why is it that everyone can remember their childhood phone number, but can’t remember the password they set up yesterday? A man went into a drop-in medical centre where the diag- nosis was done by a computer. The patient keyed in his symptoms. The machine whirred and buzzed for a few seconds and then presented its findings on the screen. It said simply: “There’s a lot of it about.” 5 I hope you have had a lovely school summer holiday break and I look forward to hearing all about it when you return to Young Church in September. 5th September There is no Young Church this Sunday. 12th September Today we will celebrating Harvest so there will be Church for All Cafe Harvest at 10am in the hall. Come with your family and friends and enjoy worshiping in a fun way, with singing, snacks and refreshments plus activities. 19th September This Sunday there will be Young Church in the hall where we will hear about who is the greatest and how we can love God and others. We will make some hear shape biscuits and some key rings. 26th September Today in Young Church we will talk about being part of God’s family and how we can serve God and other people. We will make some, Be happy cards and a cup and saucer sweet craft. AT THE CHURCH FOR ALL—HARVEST CAFÉ CHURCH on 12th September at 10 am we will be collecting for Slough Homeless Our Concern (SHOC) and the Slough Foodbank . Non perishable food items will be going to the Foodbank and if you would prefer to donate cash that will go to SHOC. Both organisations have ex- perienced a spike in demand for their services. The Foodbank are currently asking for Long-life milk, Tinned fruit, Tinned meat (stewed steak, mince, chicken in sauce) , Jam, Long-life fruit juice, Long-life sponge puddings, Coffee (small jars), Pasta sauce, Toiletries, and Washing Up Liquid but they have a 12 month sup- ply of pasta and baked beans 6 Lydia Simmons OBE Photograph courtesy of Baylis Media Ltd This happy photograph of Lydia Simmons shows something of the vivacity and energy and joy she has given to the people of Slough. First nominated to be mayor in 1983 and serving from 1984/1985 she became the United Kingdom’s first black mayor. She had already experienced a “first” however by becoming Slough’s first black councillor in 1979. She served as a councillor for 23 years. During that time much of her focus was on housing, so it is fitting that a new de- velopment in Elliman Avenue is named Lydia Court.

    Understanding Historic Parks & Gardens in Buckinghamshire The Buckinghamshire Gardens Trust Research & Recording Project Little Halings (Tile House Farm) April 2016 Bucks Gardens Trust Bucks Gardens Trust, Site Dossier: Little Halings, South Bucks District 02 April 2016 HISTORIC SITE BOUNDARY 1 Bucks Gardens Trust, Site Dossier: Little Halings, South Bucks District 02 April 2016 INTRODUCTION Background to the Project This site dossier has been prepared as part of The Buckinghamshire Gardens Trust (BGT) Research and Recording Project, begun in 2014. This site is one of several hundred designed landscapes county‐wide identified by Bucks County Council (BCC) in 1998 (including Milton Keynes District) as potentially retaining evidence of historic interest, as part of the Historic Parks and Gardens Register Review project carried out for English Heritage (BCC Report No. 508). The list is not conclusive and further parks and gardens may be identified as research continues or further information comes to light. Content BGT has taken the Register Review list as a sound basis from which to select sites for appraisal as part of its Research and Recording Project for designed landscapes in the historic county of Bucks (pre‐1974 boundaries). For each site a dossier is prepared by volunteers trained on behalf of BGT by experts in appraising designed landscapes who have worked extensively for English Heritage on its Register Upgrade Project. Each dossier includes the following for the site: A site boundary mapped on the current Ordnance Survey to indicate the extent of the main part of the surviving designed landscape, also a current aerial photograph. A statement of historic significance based on the four Interests outlined in the National Policy Planning Framework and including an overview.

  • THE PARISH CHURCH of ST. MARY WEXHAM Parish Profile 2013
    THE PARISH CHURCH OF ST. MARY WEXHAM Parish Profile 2013 Church Lane, Wexham, Buckinghamshire, SL3 6LH www.stmaryswexham.co.uk Our little Church, with the accumulated worship of years within its ancient walls, is much loved by us and visitors speak of the warmth and friendliness of the congregation. The following will introduce you to the people of St. Mary’s Over the last 10 years St. Mary’s has achieved a great deal: Our previous House for Duty Priest helped many of us to deepen our personal faith, to recognise our God-given gifts and to use them in His plan for us. We continue to put them to good use, which also enriches our lives Worship at St. Mary’s is varied and compelling - Ministers from outside the parish come to preach and lead worship as, on occasions, do the Bishop of Buckingham, the Archdeacon and the Area Dean Clergy and lay-led monthly evening services were introduced and are still very much appreciated. They replaced weekly Evensong, which had become less popular Although we don’t have an in-house organist, two excellent organists play for us when they can. If neither is available we resort to the less inspirational CDs from ‘Hymns Old & New’ Caring for the congregation and valuing everyone, whatever age they are, continues to be very important to us We have a small lay team who offer home Communion and monthly Communion Services in The Pines, the new Sheltered Housing complex, and the Care Home, Oak House, which is within the same development.
