Sometimes when we say we are sorry we really do mean it. But, often it is a throw away comment. 'SORRY' said by a disgruntled teenager, as most parents will attest, can often mean little. 'SORRY' said by moving the lips, but not from the heart also means little. Pushing into a queue whilst saying 'SORRY' is just downright rude. Lets for a moment picture the problem of children caught with their hands in the biscuit tin just before dinner. Mum has said, "No biscuits before dinner, they will spoil your appetite." But as we know mums are busy people and when preparing dinner, they are not able to monitor all their offspring's movements. So into the biscuit tin go four grubby little hands, but this time they get caught, all they can say is 'SORRY', but what does that mean? Does it mean that they are sorry that they got caught, or sorry that they disobeyed mum's instructions. For I think if we look back to our own childhoods, we would not have been sorry if we had succeeded in getting the biscuits without being caught, we would have enjoyed every morsel and crumb. Many people come to God with that kind of repentance, sorry for the consequences of their misdemeanours, but not for the misdemeanour it- self. God's requirement for us, His children, are the same as the mothers, that we be good children and obey. The mother and God are both after the same thing, healthy children. She is looking after their diet, so that they grow up fit and strong. God is looking after our spiritual diet, so that we can become better people. God will bless us if we can learn to really say 'SORRY' from the heart. Saying 'SORRY' from the heart means that we can forgive and be forgiv- en. Is there someone that you need to say 'SORRY' to? Sue le Riche 3 Remem- brance Day Service Remembrance Day will be commemorated at St. Andrew's on Sunday 10th November at 10.15 am There will be a Service of Remembrance in Church. We will then proceed to the War Memorial for the Two Minutes Silence at 11 o-lock ‘Lest We Forget’ Benefice Curry Supper and Quiz Night St Andrew’s PCC would like to thank all those who attended the "Benefice Supper and Quiz Night" last Saturday 12th October. An enjoya- ble evening was had by all and special thanks go to all the ladies who both cooked and served a delicious meal. New – Benefice House Groups in Advent Are you interested in House Groups or in growing your own personal discipleship? If so, then you may want to join a group during the Advent season when we will be looking at the new Pilgrim course “Turning to Christ.” We hope to run two groups – one on a Monday evening starting on Monday 17th November and one on a Wednesday evening starting on Wednesday 27th November, each will last for four weeks. Please sign up by phoning Sue Chandler on 01258 861432 or by e-mailing okefordbene- [email protected] and letting us know which night you prefer. If you are interested but can’t make either Monday or Wednesday nights, again please let Sue know and we will see what we can do next time around. The two groups will meet at different locations in the Benefice and both are likely to start at 7.30. Sue hopes to be inundated with re- plies! 4 Okeford Fitzpaine Village Hall Many thanks to everyone who supported our Jumble Sale by either do- nating items to sell, grabbing a bargain or just having a cup of tea and a piece of cake. We made a profit of £231.92, but there are still a few items to be sold so that number will go up. A huge thank you to the extra vol- unteers who stood behind the stalls and took the money. Once again all the left over clothing and shoes went to the School recy- cling bank, so the children will benefit and nothing will be wasted. The CHRISTMAS MARKET will take place on Sunday November 17th at the Village Hall, open to the public from 11:00am – 4:00pm. I still have a few tables left @ £7 for a six foot table or £4 for a three foot table. DONT DELAY, or you may miss the opportunity to make a little extra cash by selling items for yourself or your favourite cause. Diane Burt, Treasurer/Secretary & bookings. Tel: 01258 807697 or email [email protected] Parish Council News The following planning applications have been received and will be discussed at the next meeting: Planning Applications 2/2013/1141/PLNG - Land At Poppy Bank Farm, Okeford Fitz- paine, Dorset DT11 0EF - Erect agricultural plant room, store and office. Volunteers Wanted – Neighbourhood Plan Sub-Committee The Parish Council is looking for 3-4 people to sit on a sub-committee to help produce a Neighbourhood Plan. A Neighbourhood Plan is a community-led framework for guiding the future development, regeneration and conservation of an area. It is about the use and development of land and may contain a vision, aims, planning policies, proposals for improving the area or providing new facilities, or allocation of key sites for specific kinds of development. The Neighbourhood Plan would be part of the statutory development plan for the area, if successful at referendum. This statutory status gives the Neighbourhood Plan far more weight than some other local docu- ments, such as Parish Plans, Community Plans and Village Design State- ments. Please contact the Clerk on the email below if you are interested in tak- ing part and helping your Local Council to produce this important docu- ment. 5 Dorset Community Speed Watch The Parish Council are looking for volunteers for the following a Com- munity Speed Watch initiative. At least 6 volunteers are required and vol- unteers will work in teams of 3. The initiative, which allows members of the public to monitor motor- ists’ driving behaviour in their area and pass on details to the police, has been successfully piloted in West Dorset. Volunteers are trained in the use of a camera device and are able to rec- ord the registration numbers of speeding vehicles, before passing this in- formation to the police. Dorset Police work with local people, at their request, so that they are able to monitor speeds and driving behaviour in their areas and tell us about their findings. The Police will then take action, including –if such behaviour is persistent – enforcement activity, which may lead to prosecution. Scheme volun- teers do not act in a covert manner and, in fact, wear high visibility cloth- ing while participating. If you are interested in volunteering for this initiative please contact Cllr Mike Wood on 01258 860146. Netball Pitch A member of the public has approached the Parish Council asking if a netball pitch could be provided at the recreation ground. If this is some- thing which would be of interest to you please contact the Clerk on the email address below in order that the Parish Council can assess the viabil- ity of providing one. Date of next Parish Council Meeting The next Parish Council Meeting will take place at 7.30 pm, 3 Decem- ber 2013. All residents are welcome to attend.

  • New Love for Milborne's Old Stag
    R e p o r t e80p where r sold News and Views from around the area Volume 10 Issue 2 February 2018 www.milbornestandrew.org.uk/reporter facebook.com/MilborneReporter New love for Milborne’s old stag See page 3 A slow start to the New Year at Village History Group A very few people managed to make the meeting in January, those who did thought that many, who regularly come, could still be on holiday or unwell. We hope for more people next meeting. At this meeting Linda shared files of information that she has discovered by researching various websites. She has census returns and information from other sources (including the Reporter) which will inform our collation of information. She has been researching books written about other villages which may inform how we structure a book should we choose that route. Linda has also discovered an interesting website which shows photos of old Fordington; www.millstreethousingsociety.co.uk. Could this inspire us to create a website? We also discussed joining the Dorset History Network again but concluded that as no members appear to have accessed it, we would not do so. The History Group asks those who come to pay a small subscription; there is now a healthy sum which we could use to pay for speakers. If anyone has any good ideas about subjects or presenters please let me know. The next meeting is 14th February at 7.30pm in The Royal Oak. Hopefully members who volunteered to write up information about specific buildings will be able to share these with the group.

  • Ibberton Millennium Book FINAL COPY.Pmd
    MILANE PEGGY STEVENS I have lived in Ibberton for 37 years and am very happy in my little bungalow. I have no transport, so a friend takes me shopping every three weeks or so, when I have a good stock- up. Medical prescriptions can be collected at the Shop-cum-Post Office at Okeford Fitzpaine, which is very handy, and I also avail myself of the services of a hairdresser who visits customers in their homes. I employ someone to keep the garden tidy, so, all in all, I manage very well considering I am 80 years old this year. I enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the village and I never want to leave Ibberton. I am very content here. OLD POST COTTAGE PRISCILLA HOUSTOUN I bought Old Post Cottage in 1969, five years before retirement, and used to drive down, every other Friday after work, for the weekend. I remember starting to sing as soon as I left Salisbury and, once I arrived at Ibberton, would leap out of the car and wander around outside to see what had come out over the past fortnight. Only then would I go indoors and settle myself down for the weekend. On the Monday morning I used to get up at 5am and leave at 6am for home at Windlesham in order to change into my working clothes and be at my desk by 9am. During the fortnight between visits, friends, relatives and members of my staff would come down for short visits and holidays. Then in 1974, I retired and have lived in Old Post Cottage happily ever since.
