  • St Andrew's Chesterton Midnight Eucharist 2012 I Was Born and Bred in a House on the Road Between Kingston and Wimbledon
    St Andrew’s Chesterton Midnight Eucharist 2012 I was born and bred in a house on the road between Kingston and Wimbledon. I went to school on Wimbledon Common in the era when a number one song in the hit parade could be performed on ‘Top of the Pops’ by a group of furry creatures with long noses. Underground, overground, wombling free, the Wombles of Wimbledon Common are we. The Wombles were always there doing their work of keeping the common tidy, unnoticed and unregarded. People don’t notice us, they never see, under their noses a Womble may be. When I moved on from the world of the Wombles to the world of the Church of England I noticed that some things hadn’t changed very much. Lots of dressing up in strange costumes and singing songs, for instance. Same meters too – did you know that you can sing the Wombling song to the tune of ‘Abide with me’ – try it at home or make a party game of it tomorrow. A more serious similarity is that the omnipresence of the Wombles on their common is matched by the omnipresence of the Church of England in our green and pleasant land. Every square inch of England is in a parish and every parish has a church and every church has a priest, albeit that he or she may be shared with an increasing number of others. But people don’t seem to notice it, that under their noses the Church is working away very often cleaning up the mess that people have left and the mess they are in, and ensuring that this remains a green and pleasant land, physically, morally and spiritually.

  • News Release from a Distance
    Garden City Runners: News Release from a Distance Issue eight: 17 May 2020 In these strange and worrying times, we’re here to keep you in touch with your fellow club members, bringing you news and views of solo runs and challenges, plus tips and info to keep you fit and motivated. Please send any content for future releases to [email protected] GCRs Remember They Are Wombles This week’s Run Leader Challenge was to strengthen those wombling muscles and help clean up our beautiful Garden City at the same time as keeping active. Run Leader Rob Lawrence challenged us in wombling verse: “Underground, overground, wombling free The Wombles of Welwyn Garden City Making good use of the things that we find Things that the everyday folks leave behind.” The challenge was to make like a Womble, going underground and overground through subways, underpasses and tunnels and over bridges, and, as an optional extra, pick up some of the rubbish that’s built up during this period of lockdown. GCRs rising to this challenge included Willow Gibson and Debbie Pierson, wombling at Stanborough Lakes; Nikki Cowen, who wombled around Hatfield House picking up litter as she went; Jen Denman, who wombled under 4 underpasses and over 6 bridges; Alison Meaden; Karen Atkinson, who channelled Madame Cholet in her wombling wedding anniversary run around the Ayot Greenway, and James Benfold (above), who wins our Womble of the Week award by going over and under 32 bridges and underpasses without once crossing his own path. Haydens Run the WGC Centenary Half When the Snowdonia Half marathon was cancelled, intrepid GCRs Becca and Ann Hayden (pictured, below) decided to run an alternative half instead.

  • Wombling Free: the Art of Salvaging and Re
    www.mudandwood.com Wombling Free: The Art of Salvaging and Re-Using Materials in 2012 By Féile Butler, Architect, Mud and Wood, Grange Beg, Skreen, Co. Sligo, Ireland Reduce. Re-Use. Recycle. This is the mantra of even the youngest pre-schoolers nowadays. About 35 years ago, we heard a very similar philosophy from a certain set of furry creatures known to inhabit Wimbledon Common. They even put it to music, “Making good use of the things that we find, things that the everyday folks leave behind.” The Wombles were on the ball. Finding, stockpiling and re-using materials are skills that we embrace at Mud and Wood. Maybe it helps that Colin is Scottish, a race world-renowned for their frugality (apologies to all the Scottish spendthrifts out there). He has a penchant for looking in skips and raking through rubbish piles. As the saying goes, “one man’s junk is another man’s treasure”, and this is certainly true with the Mud and Wood House project. There is a very serious point to all of this. The world’s resources are diminishing. The world’s population is growing. Societies are being manipulated to become increasingly consumerist. Products are no longer designed to last forever. They are designed to wear out or break down or become incompatible with ever-advancing technology. Products are not designed to be adapted or repaired. They are designed to be thrown away and replaced. In the construction industry, the problem of redundant building materials is seldom discussed. But what happens to the materials in your house in decades or centuries to come, when it ceases to be “your house” or anybody else’s house for that matter? If the various building components can be used again, in their existing state, that is surely a desirable characteristic.

Their size and physical appearance has changed somewhat over the years: in the original editions of the books, Wombles are pictured as bear-like and between 3 and 5 feet about 1—1. The appearance of the Wombles in the books followed the design of the Ivor Wood TV puppets, with the exception of original editions of The Wombles and first printings of The Wandering Wombleswhich preceded the TV series and depicted the Wombles as teddy bear-like creatures. Elisabeth The Wombles at Work was awarded an MBE for her services to children's literature in She hoped that the Wombles stories would encourage children to fight pollution and to think up ways of 'making good use of bad rubbish'.

  • Dissertation, Finalised
    “A Mass Conspiracy To Feed People” Globalizing Cities, World-Class Waste, and the Biopolitics of Food Not Bombs David Henry Galen Boarder Giles A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Daniel J. Hoffman, Chair Ann Anagnost Miriam Kahn Celia Lowe Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology, Sociocultural © Copyright 2013 David Henry Galen Boarder Giles University of Washington Abstract “A Mass Conspiracy To Feed People” Globalizing Cities, World-Class Waste, and the Biopolitics of Food Not Bombs David Henry Galen Boarder Giles, PhD Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Assistant Professor Daniel J. Hoffman, PhD Department of Anthropology This is an ethnography of waste, cities, and social movements. Primarily one social movement in particular, Food Not Bombs, which recovers and freely redistributes wasted food in the public spaces of hundreds of cities, in dozens of countries, on every continent except Antarctica. In the process, chapters contest highly polarised geographies of hunger, homelessness, and public space in these places. This dissertation explores three aspects of Food Not Bombs’ context and cultural logic: (1) the ways in which waste is made and moved about in cities; (2) the ways in which those cities are becoming global in the process of waste-making (and vice versa); and (3) the ways in which this globalised waste-making cultivates globalised forms of social organisation and political resistance. This research has consisted of extensive participant-observation within Food Not Bombs chapters and some of the larger political and cultural communities in which they are embedded—Dumpster-divers, squatters, homeless advocates, punks, anarchists, and so on—in Seattle, New York City, San Francisco, Boston, Melbourne, Australia, and several other cities.

  • Fight the Power the Politics of Music.Pdf
    John Street ‘Fight the Power’: The Politics of Music and the Music of Politics* ‘If there’s any hope for America, it lies in a revolution. And if there’s any hope for a revolution, it lies in getting Elvis Presley to become Che Guevara’. (Phil Ochs, musician, 1940–1976) DURING THE RUN-UP TO THE 2001 UK GENERAL ELECTION, THE DAILY Telegraph ran a story about the music with which the Conserva- tive Party was going to accompany its campaign. This apparently trivial item warranted a surprising amount of media attention. The BBC’s Newsnight current affairs programme devoted ten minutes to it, and the story was also covered in broadsheet and tabloid papers. Maybe this was simply a symptom of the so-called ‘dumbing down’ of British mass media, but the story was revealing in other ways. For the journalists, what mattered was that the Tories’ tune was com- posed by Mike Batt whose other claim to musical fame was as author of hits in the 1970s for the Wombles, a group of furry animals who were supposed to roam south-west London: ‘underground, over- ground, wombling free / the Wombles of Wimbledon Common are we’. That the Conservative Party should call on the writer of such lines to compose its theme tune was taken as a sign of the political mire into which the Tories had sunk. By comparison, their rivals had made altogether more astute musical choices — the Liberal Democrats had a song by Stephen Gately of teen idols Boyzone; and Labour had followed up their 1997 choice of D:ream’s ‘Things can only get better’ with the Lighthouse Family’s ‘Lifted’.1 Neither choice represented the cutting edge of contemporary pop, but they were taken as far more credible than the Conservatives’.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} the Wombles by Elisabeth Beresford Wombles Creator Elisabeth Beresford Dies, Aged 84
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Wombles by Elisabeth Beresford Wombles creator Elisabeth Beresford dies, aged 84. Elisabeth Beresford, the writer best known for creating the much-loved children's television programme,The Wombles, has died. The 84-year-old invented the characters of the Wombles of Wimbledon Common, who became household names in the 1970s. Beresford died at 10.30pm yesterday in the Mignot Memorial hospital on Alderney, in the Channel Islands, after suffering heart failure, her son Marcus Robertson said. The first Wombles book was published in 1968 and, after it was broadcast on Jackanory, the BBC decided to make an animated series. Beresford wrote over 20 Wombles books within a decade, which were translated into more than 40 languages. She also wrote a Wombles stage show, one version of which ran in the West End. A total of 35 five-minute films were broadcast on BBC One accompanied by Mike Batt's music and the programme's synonymous theme tune, Underground Overground, Wombling Free. The characters were voiced by actor Bernard Cribbins and the puppets created by Ivor Wood. Beresford was inspired to create the characters by a child's mispronunciation one Christmas, when she took her children to Wimbledon Common for a Boxing Day stroll and her daughter Kate referred to the area as "Wombledon". A number of the characters she developed were based on members of her family. Great Uncle Bulgaria was based on her father-in-law, Tobermory on her brother (a skilled inventor), Orinoco, on her son, and Madame Cholet on her mother. Beresford was born in Paris in 1926, although her family home was in England.

  • Elisabeth Beresford Mike Batt
    The Wombles by Elisabeth Beresford and Mike Batt Vorwort Als ich Ende Oktober 1998 zu Hause meinen Internet-Zugang erhielt, gab es noch sehr viele offene Fra- gen und noch mehr „ungeschriebene Seiten“ in diesem großen weltverbindenen Netz der Netze. Aufgrund meiner recht umfangreichen Musiksammlung von den Beatles angefangen, über Cat Stevens bis hin zu Mike Batt, zu denen natürlich auch Textsammlungen und zahlreiche andere Aufzeichnungen gehö- ren, machte ich mich schon ein Jahr später ans Werk, meine dazumals im Netz nur sehr spärlich vertretenen Lieblingsmusiker auf meiner eigenen Homepage zu präsentieren. So begann ich beinah zeitgleich über Cat Stevens (heute „Yusuf“ Islam) und Mike Batt eine Internetseite anzulegen. Neben einer kurzen Biographie gab es eine so gut wie vollständige Discograpie und die Anfänge einer Lyrics-Sammlung Nachdem sich schon bald ähnlich geartete deutsche und österreichische Seiten über Cat Stevens im In- ternet einstellten, habe ich Cat Stevens aus meinem „Internet-Repertoire“ genommen und mich dafür inten- siver dem scheinbar unbekannten englischen Musiker Mike Batt gewidmet. Anders als die meisten „Womblefans“ in England und Deutschland, welche die sympathischen Müll- sammler und Wiederverwerter bereits seit dem Anfang der 1970er kennen, lernte ich sie erst Mitte der 1980er durch eine, einer Presseaussendung beigefügten Künstlerbiographie kennen. Im Gegensatz zu heute, wo man sich per Internet beinah alles von überall auf der Welt bestellen kann, erstand ich erst bei einem London-Urlaub im Jahre 1988 - mehr durch Zufall - meine erste VHS-Kassette mit Wombles TV-Fernsehfolgen. Heute ein gut gehüteter Schatz in meiner Sammlung. Waren auch die Wombles Mike Batts Sprungbrett für seine Karriere als Musiker, so wollte der mittler- weile zum seriösen Komponisten, Arrangeur und Dirigent großer internationaler Orchester etablierte Künst- ler lange Zeit nichts von der „Kindermusik mit hohem Niveau“ der Wombles hören, lesen oder wissen, ge- schweige denn, mit ihnen in Verbindung gebracht zu werden.
