When I was about 10 I was called young man all the time – a sort of compliment. I was gathering myself together and becoming a grown up person. I enjoyed the title as it promised me adulthood and respect. The young man occasions then waned in the intervening years as I became “sir”. Now – it appears it’s back – not so much a compliment as a humorous comment on my seniority. Frankly I find it patronising and tedious, but I seldom rise to the bait. But even this is only a pale reflection on the times I am now addressed as “buddy”. An Americanism, I assume, I am often deemed a buddy of someone behind a counter. I feel like saying, “I fear that I have never met you before and therefore cannot be reasonably described either wholly or in part as your buddy, friend or even acquaintance. Sir will do.” I don’t, of course. I smile, thank the kind person and move on. “Cheers bud…” I hear behind me. But at least I feel seen. At least I feel noticed. Some women (rather than men) my age(ish) begin to feel sort of invisible which must be very difficult indeed. No easy one-liners for them, “young lady” not sounding right, nor the matey “buddy”, and too young for the over loud, “you alright, my love”. Just “thank you” and forgotten. Being seen for who we are is incredibly important. Or should I say, being understood for who we are is incredibly important. This generation, with its obsession with individual choice, is wrestling with numerous questions about gender and identity which until recently would have been thought impossible. So for instance, the South African women’s double Olympic Champion Caster Semenya, has been ordered to artificially reduce her natural testosterone levels to a more “normal” female range if she wants to compete in women’s sport. She has refused to do so. She has lived as a woman all her life and has no intention of compromising her identity. She is who she is. Simple as that. But what of all those others whose identity is also ambiguous? In this country there are estimated to be 660,000 people who are deemed to be one gender but feel more identified with another. That’s a lot of people, considerably bigger than the population of Bristol. And the chilling reality is that of these some 88% have suffered depression and many attempt suicide, or at least feel 3 so desperate that they consider it – as many as 45%. Over half of these people will hide their feelings for fear of prejudice, they will hide who they are for fear of being misunderstood. Many will make mistakes in life and relationships trying to maintain a life they feel simply isn’t honest. Individual choice brings its own pressure, of course, and my concern rests mainly with the pressure put onto the young, before life’s experience has equipped them to see a wider perspective. Too many choices too soon is not always a healthy thing and these matters are hugely sensitive and complex. But if that is so, having no choice at all isn’t either. We’re fortunate in many ways to live when we do as many of us have the opportunity to live longer, healthier and more prosperous lives. But whatever our choices and opportunities it is a great gift to be happy in one’s own skin – to be ordinarily happy and content. What a precious thing this is. St Paul has a wonderful phrase in Corinthians, in his famous passage about love – “For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I am fully known.” I like this because it’s ultimately about honesty. To have the confidence simply to be known and understood fully is a divine gift and is something the church should deeply desire. As Cardinal Basil Hume said, “judgement is whispering into the ear of a merciful and compassionate God the story of your life you have never been able to tell.” I have never had an issue with my gender personally, but as I reflect on church life it seems to me that accepting people honestly as they are, and not as they might pretend to be, should be a hallmark of spirituality. Church should be an attempt to allow oneself to be fully known free from fear. It seldom is. Church has for too long been slow to accept difference whether that be race, colour, background, gender or orientation but I hope this is now changing and we’re increasingly allowing ourselves to be a Corinthians people – fully known and fully loved. Fr Noël Copy for the July Magazine by Monday 17th June 2019 The magazine is in church on Sunday 30th June 2019 4 MESSAGE FROM THE BISHOP We all have something to offer There is a story told about Sir Michael Costa who was an Italian- born conductor and composer who became well known and popular in England during the nineteenth century. It is said that one day he was conducting a rehearsal in which the orchestra was joined by a great chorus. About halfway through the rehearsal, with trumpets blaring, drums rolling, and violins singing, the piccolo player muttered to himself, "What good am I doing? I might just as well not be playing. Nobody can hear me anyway." So he kept the instrument to his mouth, but he made no sound. Within moments, the conductor cried, "Stop! Stop! Where’s the piccolo?" Michael Costa could tell that the piccolo was not playing. Something was missing and because of that the performance was incomplete. I am sure there are times when we can all identify with that piccolo player. There are times when we may feel insignificant and useless. Whatever age we are there is the temptation to look at other people who seem to have more talent than we have, who are better at things than we are, who are more confident or skilled than we are - and to think we don’t matter or that our contribution doesn’t count. Perhaps we are tempted sometimes just to settle back and let somebody else do the work. We reason that what we have to offer won’t make much difference anyway, or that because other people can do it much better than we can, that there is no point in us joining in. I take heart from the story of the feeding of the five thousand. In the middle of that story we read of Andrew, Peter’s brother saying: ‘There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?’ (John 6:9). This is a story of someone giving what he has to the Lord and about Jesus then using what is offered to feed a multitude of hungry people (John 6:1-14). What do we learn from that? Surely one thing we learn is that each of us has something important to offer which God can take and bless and use. Whether our talent is great or small, the performance isn’t complete until we do our best with what we have and until we offer our lives and our gifts to God and ask him to use us for his glory and to serve others.

  • The Quaternary Evolution of the Gordano Valley, North Somerset
    The Quaternary Evolution of the Gordano Valley, North Somerset, UK. Thomas Charles Bernard Hill A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Faculty of the Built Environment, University of the West of England, Bristol January 2006 Abstract The Gordano Valley is a low-lying valley positioned in close proximity to the Severn Estuary, in southwest England. Although its late Quaternary and Holocene sedimentary archive is extensive, the spatial and temporal evolution of the Gordano Valley has received only limited attention from previous researchers. In this study, stratigraphic analysis of the valley archive, combined with pollen, diatom and particle size analysis are utilised in a detailed reconstruction of the evolution of the Gordano Valley. Two contrasting depositional environments are present, separated by a sedimentary ridge traversing the width of the valley. A tentative mechanism is presented for the development of the ridge in response to periglacial hillslope erosion and deposition during the Devensian glacial period (c. 115,000-11,500 Cal. yrs BP). In contrast, the chronology and development of the two depositional environments is clearer. Detailed multiproxy analysis of the two sedimentary archives reveals the development of an enclosed lake basin headward of the ridge during the late glacial period (c. 18,000-15,000 Cal. yrs BP). Subsequent climatic amelioration in response to the transition from glacial to interglacial conditions resulted in the terrestrialisation of the lake at the onset of the BØlling/AllerØd interstadial, c. 15,000 Cal. yrs BP. A complete hydroseral succession sequence is present in the headward region of the valley, where the terrestrialised lake sequence developed into the fen peatland that is present today.

The relationship can be quite complex. It is determined by numerous factors which need to be taken into account in planning for growth. 1.2 The purpose of this Topic Paper is to set out the evidence in terms of the settlements in North Somerset in order to identify their current function and functional relationships with other settlements. The evidence will form the basis on which a hierarchy of settlements will be established. In particular the identification of Development Policy B and C settlements set out in the draft RSS. The Paper will also consider how policies have influenced the form and function of settlements and inform any discussion of whether the current list of inset and washed over Green Belt settlements is still appropriate and whether settlement boundaries are still the appropriate planning tool for many green belt and rural settlements.

  • 170817DC Gordano Open Days 2017 Plan
    Gordano Open Days September 7-10th 2017 As part of English Heritage Open Days we have designated a collection of venues in the Gordano Valley that are architecturally and historically significant to our local community. They are referred to as Gordano Open Days. We have laid out a trail of several miles that takes our visitors through villages that are little changed from when they were agricultural societies in medieval times and through other parts of the community that were involved with the industrial revolution and with the more recent mechanized agricultural processes. We have structures that were influenced by the great inventors such as Isambard Brunel and Henry Bessemer and by architects such as Edward Gabriel. Our journey ends at the entrance to the Portishead Marina in what is now one of the fastest growing towns in Europe. It is a pleasant journey starting with historic Portbury, passing through the idyllic Gordano Valley and then along the coast road that follows the shoreline of the Severn Estuary. Having the second highest tide fall in the world the Estuary surges in and out twice daily and over the years has carved scenic bays and inlets from the rugged and rocky coastline. Sites along the way are accessible by automobile or by footpath and visitors can set their own pace or select the portions that are of personal interest. Maps will be provided explaining points of interest. We will be accommodating walking groups and cyclist and refreshment will be available at each stage. There is a mixture of serene and peaceful churches and buildings that have been remodelled with the latest modern conveniences and that are very much alive and active.

I love the changes – and the surprises. This year’s mild winter led to some remarkable early spring flowering, of bluebells, for example. Yet there was late flowering by others, in particular, hawthorn. It was cool and dry for the first half of spring (with a seeming dearth of insects) and then wet, resulting in a completely new mix of early summer blooms. It’s been all-change at the Trust, too. We said farewell to MARK CARWARDINE MARK our inspirational Chief Executive Bevis Watts, who in three years has transformed the Trust (he’s now director of the Roz Kidman Cox ethical bank Triodos but remains a stalwart supporter). Taking Trust Chair his place, arriving with equal energy, comes Ian Barrett: environmentalist, partnership-builder and, very importantly, a member. The Trust is the sum of its members – who often provide practical as well as financial support. So it’s been good to hear from you via the survey about the information you’d like more of.
