Santa and his crew were working overtime making children's dreams come true. Singing carols, whistling tunes, as the hours ticked away, except for little Edison, the elf that went astray. Instead of making toys in Santa's assembly line, he was hanging out with Rudolph beneath the snow capped pines. As Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus took a look around, they noticed lazy Edison was nowhere to be found. They decided they'd had enough; this elf will surely be fired. Scratched their heads and realized another must be hired. Dasher heard them talking and thought this can't be so. Never in elf's history has someone had to go. He searched the winter wonderland, and under the Northern Lights Edison and Rudolph were frolicking in flight. He said, "Come down from there; your behavior's a disgrace. Christmas Eve is almost here and you're about to be replaced.” Edison soon realized his days of slacking were done, that there'd be consequences for goofing off and having fun. 3 He knew he had no place to go if Santa didn't let him stay. His heart began to pound as Rudolph ran away. He hurried as fast as he could to tell Santa he was wrong, beg him for forgiveness and show him he belonged. As the other elves were caroling, he tried to sneak inside, but Santa saw him coming out of the corner of his eye. He placed his hands upon his hips and firmly shook his head, "What shall I do with you, my elf?" Santa firmly said. "I see you when you're sleeping. I know when you're awake. Did you not read your history book?" he said for goodness sake! Santa soon forgave him 'cause his heart is made of gold, and Edison became the hardest worker I am told. The moral of this story is we all must do our part, and jolly old St. Nick has always had a heart. Merry Christmas to all of you on this holiest of days. May all your dreams come true as you gather and celebrate.

Particular thanks go to the anonymous donor of a huge number of Co-op and Morrison's savings stamps which were able to be used by the Food Bank. Words are quite inadequate really for everyone’s generosity but I would like to say, once again, a big thank you to all those who have dropped things off. If you have anything you would like to donate but are unable to deliver for whatever reason, just give us a ring and we will arrange to collect. For Boxes of Hope, 30 shoe boxes went from Brough this year as well as two huge boxes containing knitted items, toys, stationery items, sweets, etc. which were used by the volunteers to fill other boxes as they checked them on the 14th November in Kirkby Stephen. We have almost 200 teddies for tragedies at the moment but there is still time for more as these are not collected until after Christmas as a rule, although it may be later with the current situation. There is a display of some of them in our window at the moment if you are passing and would like to see them. Happy Christmas to all and let’s hope 2021 will see a return to some kind of normality. Heather 017683 42476. 6 Brough Allotment Society On a sunny afternoon back in October Brough Allotment Site was visited by the film crew of ITV’s Good Morning programme. Amanda Owen (Yorkshire Shepherdess) husband Clive and two of their daughters were filmed alongside plot holders Andrew and Robina Kershaw choosing and harvesting fresh seasonal produce, and talked about growing your own food. The girls identified and dug up leeks, potatoes, carrots, parsnips and a magnificent red cabbage from a most colourful plot belonging to Dee and Bernie Cullen. It’s worth a walk along Musgrave Lane to see their bright carpet of chrysanthemums. Amanda, Edith and Violet used their Brough bounty to prepare and serve a hearty chicken, barley and vegetable stew back at the farm in Swaledale. Stan Davis, well known local gardening expert joined the fun sharing his knowledge and treating us all to accordion music and a rendition of his Spud Song specially written for the occasion! A drone camera was used with great effect to show off Brough Castle and the surrounding Upper Eden countryside. Filming also focused on our “Rosie” the Sheep sign created by local artist Karen McSkimming. Those with a keen eye will see Brough’s “Rosie” popping up in one or two other places too. The epi- sode of Good Morning is unfortunately no longer available on the ITV hub, but those who saw it were very happy with the result. Brough Allotment site is now fully occupied and continues to grow in strength and enthusiasm. It is time to introduce our new chairman, Bob Goodall. As an experienced grower and allotment enthusiast, Bob is sure to help the society to grow and flourish. For further information about Brough Allotment and Garden Society Bob is happy for you to contact him by email [email protected]. BROUGH SOWERBY LUNCH CLUB We wish all our guests a very HAPPY CHRISTMAS, and every good wish for 2021. Hopefully it will be a better year than 2020! We hope you are all well and safe – we miss seeing you. We plan to start serving lunches again as soon as it is safe to do so, and look forward to having you all with us again.

Although we have been unable to meet together since March we have managed to keep in touch. We were very disappointed to cancel our planned programme of speakers and events and the arrangements for our Centenary celebrations. We look forward to 2021 when we will once again be able to meet in friendship. Our speakers have all agreed to join us next year and we hope to celebrate our special 101st birthday in style. Although we do not yet have a date when our meetings can resume, we normally meet on the first Wednesday in the month at 7.30pm at Warcop Parish Hall, guests and new members are always welcome. At this difficult time please accept our grateful thanks to everyone who has helped with shopping, visits, transport and much more. I notice this weekend that coloured lanterns, sparkling lights and silver reindeer have started to appear in the village so on a happier note, best wishes for a safe and happy Christmas.

WITH LARGE CHART OF THE ROMAN ROADS, AND SMALL MAPS LY THE TEXT SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE, LONDON: NORTHUMBERLAND AVENUE, W.C. 43, QUEEN VICTORIA STREET, E.G. ErIGHTON ; 129, NORTH STREET. 1903 PUBLISHED UNDEK THE DIRECTION OF THE GENERAL LITERATURE COMAHTTEE. DA CsHr PREFACE The following attempt to describe the Roman roads of Britain originated in observations made in all parts of the country as opportunities presented themselves to me from time to time. On turning to other sources of information, the curious fact appeared that for a century past the literature of the subject has been widely influenced by the spurious Itinerary attributed to Richard of Ciren- cester. Though that was long ago shown to be a forgery, statements derived from it, and suppositions founded upon them, are continually repeated, casting suspicion sometimes undeserved on accounts which prove to be otherwise accurate. A wide publicity, and some semblance of authority, have been given to imaginary roads and stations by the new Ordnance maps. Those who early in the last century, under the influence of the new Itinerary, traced the Roman roads, unfortunately left but scanty accounts of the remains which came under their notice, many of which have since been destroyed or covered up in the making of modern roads ; and with the evidence now avail- able few Roman roads can be traced continuously. The gaps can often be filled with reasonable cer- tainty, but more often the precise course is doubtful, and the entire course of some roads connecting known stations of the Itinerary of Antonine can IV PREFACE only be guessed at.
