01404 851401 Reverend Cate Edmonds [email protected] The Rectory www.efpchurch.org.uk Station Road Feniton Dear Friends,
By the time that you are reading this I expect Ascension Day has passed, 25th May. The day we celebrate the risen Jesus Christ leaving Earth, ascending, to join God our Father in Heaven. Last year and again this year there is a prayer initiative entitled Thy Kingdom Come, a line from the Lord’s Prayer. Christians all around the world, this year especially, are called to form a wave of prayer between Ascension Day (25th May) to Pentecost (June 4th), the day we celebrate the Holy Spirit descending on the disciples to give them the power to continue Jesus’ work on Earth.
There are a range of activities happening in our local churches. In the churches of Escot, Feniton and Payhembury there are cards on each church gate which people may use for a prayer walk around the churchyards. Our church yards are beautiful places, lovingly cared for by loyal bands of volunteers, to whom we are indebted. They are places where people come to remember or pay respect to loved ones who have died or just places to sit and be quiet and reflect on the beauty of creation. I do hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity to visit our church yards.
Other activities around this time will be a regular emailing of those interested of a daily prayer and refection; individual prayer cards available in churches for daily prayer; and on Ascension Day our Year 5 children are taking part in a very special Ascension Day activity at Ottery Church. There will be an Ascension Day service at 7.30pm at Escot Church, as well as Pentecost celebrations in each church at the usual times on June 4th. The culmination of Pentecost will be a special service in the Cathedral at 6.30pm on 4th June, where some of the prayer activities etc will be displayed and our local prayers taken to the cathedral. All are welcome to this service.
Why, you may ask, is this happening? It is hoped that this world wide wave of prayer will inspire people across the world to reflect, to think about faith, but also bring hope and even peace for a time across our rather distressed world. On a personal note, I hope that through our communities we will feel an even greater sense of community spirit and you never know we may see some very interesting things happening. If you have time please take part in some way and, you never know, we may feel a wave of peace pass among us. Every blessing, Rev Cate

Coffee Morning
Wednesday 21st June at Yarrow Park
The wisteria at Cokesputt was a joy to behold when we visited there for the Coffee Morning in April, and it was lovely to wander round the garden after enjoying the delicious treats offered by our kind hosts, Caroline and Angus. Very many thanks to them for their hospitality.
The next Coffee Morning will be on Wednesday 21st June at Yarrow Park by kind invitation of Shirley and Gerald Evans. This is a new venue for us so we look forward to exploring their garden and hope for a fine day!
All proceeds from the Coffee Mornings go to Church funds.
If you would like to know more about the Coffee Mornings please give me a call on 841828. Marjorie W
Tea and Bingo Report — May
A happy gang of nine people played bingo in May, with two people playing cards for those who couldn’t make it – although some were luckier than others with the prizes!
Apparently I owe the shop an apology as I did not mean to suggest their cakes aren’t good – in fact they are lovely – but that it was lazy of me to buy a cake instead of make one. This time I did make one and as usual Marjorie brought a lovely one too.
There is plenty of room now we are accommodated so nicely at the pub, so do join us or just pop in to any meeting.
Our next meeting is on:
Wed 7th June, 2.15pm in the Six Bells
As usual, if you need a lift or have any questions, call Marjorie (841110) or Sue (841103).
Do you have an event to publicise, or some news to share? Email: [email protected] by the 18th.

Bell News – Calling New Ringers!
In March we had some essential maintenance done on the church bells, including the replacement of bushes and pulleys, and the provision of new bell ropes. The cost of this has been covered by a grant from the Devon Church Bell Restoration Fund and fundraising by the bellringers themselves. The bells now ring much more smoothly.
We currently continue to ring with six regular ringers for Thursday practices and Sunday 11.00am services, but are desperately in need of some new recruits.
If you fancy a try at bell-ringing, just want to have a look at what we do, or if you used to ring but haven't done so for a while, come along to a Thursday night practice from 8.00pm. Or if you would prefer another time for a one-to-one session, give Colin Blake a call on 841026.
Lynette Blake
The W.I.
We were fascinated to hear local architect, Steve Eastland, tell us of his many experiences over twenty and more years of practice, after seven years of training. His time as a loss adjustor saw him at the terrible aftermath of Hurricane Marilyn in 1995, at the church fire in Buckfastleigh, and at a house on top of a suddenly discovered tin mine in Cornwall.
It was interesting to learn about crematorium design, and to know that insulating the inside of cob walls is not a good idea, because of the dewpoint. The expensive array of tools and software used in his practice were a revelation. And finally, good architecture combines function with beauty.....as Keats nearly said, that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know!
At Bluebell Time, we perambulated around Hembury Fort and admired the new views and lovely flowers. Nobody saw an adder!
Next meeting June 13th, 7.30 pm in the hall
Not Just For Breakfast...Sharon Davies speaks about how a B & B helped develop granola as a breakfast cereal business, and the other uses for it. There will be delicious cake to sample!
Do come along and see what goes on at the modern WI, you will be very welcome. Please contact Angie Car on 841862, or Julie Ashcroft on 841189.

Yellingham Farm in May
I have never seen so much grass, it keeps growing and growing and all my ewes and lambs are hardly making an impression on it. Mustn’t complain though, as if this dry weather continues, it will impact on the grass growth. Mind you, I remember when we bought the farm, everyone commented that “Yellingham was a very grassy farm”. Thought it was a stupid thing to say at the time, but they were right.
Naturally the ewes and lambs are growing on really well and some of my ram lambs are nearly as big as their mum. The next job on the list is to vaccinate all the lambs against the millions of illnesses they can get, such as pulpy kidney, blackleg, tetanus – the list goes on. Two injections two to six weeks apart. It’s an important job and not one to leave undone as the lambs have only got immunity from their mum for a short period of time after birth.
With all the stock turned out, and lovely dry weather, it’s been a good month to really push on with training my lovely red and white Border Collie Ralph. He’s now two and really starting to show signs of being a very good dog. I have got 14 black welsh lambs which I kept from last years lambing, who are ideal for training a dog. They move well, flock tightly together and aren’t too scatty with a young dog. I take Ralph out every day without fail for about 10 minutes – I’m exhausted after that amount of time – not the sheep or Ralph!
I am working hard on getting him to remember his sides – I use the command “Come Bye” to go left and clockwise and “Away to me” to go out to the right and anti-clockwise. Also, I am working on getting him to run wider as this settles the sheep. A few weeks ago he was working too close and we did have sheep going off in all directions. If he keeps progressing as fast as he is at the moment, I think I might have a very useful dog in the making.
The photo is his trick after working, to cool down – either a trough or the river Tale, whichever is the closest. There is only one problem……. I have to move smartish to avoid getting soaked as he hurtles back to me at 100 mph, shaking furiously, for a well deserved pat on the back. Bless him.
Janet East
A big welcome to all the people who have joined the village in recent months, including: Derek and Cath at Barrow Road, Ben and Rachael at Robin Cottage, Phil and Tina at Willow Park, Karl and Sandra at Wheatcroft, Ashton and Lucy at Wren Cottage, Gareth and Mary at Ashcombe, Ryan and Isobel at Summerdale and Brian and Nadine at Briarwood! (If we’ve missed anyone out, please let us know!)

May Day
An outstanding effort from the MET office brought the sunshine for May Day and the crowds came to celebrate. A beautifully poignant crowning on the green was followed by fantastic dancing from the children. No permanent injuries came from the welly wanging and all the dogs were very well behaved for Janet East in the dog show. Days of summer were welcomed in by the fabulous Otter Morris dancers, what a way to celebrate. Fun and laughter throughout made it a day to remember.
Thank you to all the FOPs committee who worked so hard to make it such a success and to all those parents and supporters who gave their time to help. Many people without a link to our school give their time to support FOPs, which is what our community is all about. It's when everyone works together that great things are achieved. This year we raised an amazing £1000 for school, which I know will make a real difference in these difficult financial times. So thank you once again to everyone who made it happen, you make a real difference.

Village Tree
The ribbon was cut to celebrate the new village tree by Heather Wallace, whose mother Kathleen Lawrence planted the cherry tree. The Parish Council would like to thank all the donors for their generous contributions, the residents around the green for watering the tree over the last year, and FOPS for offering the May Day event as an opportunity for the ribbon cutting. Keith Williams
Photos show the ribbon of the new tree being cut by Heather Wallace, and the original cherry tree being planted by Kathleen Lawrence.
Tale Millers Cricket
Funny old month weather wise, the farming part of me is enjoying the rain, the cricket part of me finds picking teams then telling them the game is off, a bit of an inconvenience! The highlight of our month has no doubt been the opening of the new Groundsman’s Hut and Ladies and Gents Toilets, by the right honourable Lady Janet East of Yellingham, who as you might expect, turned up in a delightful straw hat and gave a short humorous speech before cutting the ribbon, in front of an impressively large crowd. Thank you Janet and everyone who turned out on another chilly evening.
To date this month we have played three and won three, a good record, although tonight’s game is now off and Friday’s game against Talaton Inn must also be in doubt. There have been victories over Cavendish Cavaliers, Broadhembury Lions and Blacksmiths and Artizans, with notable contributions from Roger Goulding, Roland Stonex (no one ever gets him out.....it’s like throwing a ball at a brick wall!), Si Kittow (whose Dad turned up to cheer him on, on his birthday, and ended up playing for the first time in a year or so I understand), Dan Rugg and Jon Pengelly. It’s also been good to welcome new squad members Mark Hammett, Ben Norris and Brian Hammond to The Millers dressing room. Hopefully the weather will soon dry up and we can get on with the cricketing again.
Without getting too Marty on you, finally there has to be a word for the Grecians, who have gone from the very bottom of the football league in late November to a play off place come the end of the season, an effort even Burnley would be proud of. After the first leg miles away in Carlisle (further even than Burnley?), the tie is poised at 3 all, so hopefully by the time you read this I'll be hoarse and have tickets for the Wembley Final...... come to think of it even the final may have been and gone by then, or am I tempting fate?
Anyway, enough gibbering from me, see you in the clubhouse and UP THE CITY! Jon Carden

Clarets Corner
The CLARETS reached the magic 40 points, which means we will be playing in the PREMIER LEAGUE for another season, considering we were favourites for relegation when the season started! I was unable to get to the MAY DAY event this year (the first I have missed for quite a few years) but all the reports tell me it was very successful, WELL DONE! to all concerned, and also well done and thank you to Brian and Nadine Bird, who held a GARAGE SALE at their home at NEWLANDS recently and made a nice donation to the PAYHEMBURY CHARITY FUND, a really nice gesture! See you around the village and UP THE CLARETS! Marty

Nature Notes Observations from June
Hi folks
I went train spotting the other Saturday, near Cullompton. For those interested in steam engines, I saw a double-headed (two engines) express speeding through. The engines were "Royal Scot" and a Battle of Britain Class pacific called "Lord Dowding". I'm telling you this because it turned out to be a very good bird-watching spot too – I saw a blackcap singing away, buzzards, a sparrow hawk and two swifts overhead, plus I could hear lots of birdsong – a lovely chorus!
On another beautiful day, I walked down to the river Tale, enjoying all the pretty wild flowers in the hedges. This is surely the loveliest time of the year – bluebells, white flowers, pink campion, yellow dandelions (yes, they looked great), tiny blue flowers and so on. The birds were singing – robins, chaffinches, wrens, chiff-chaffs and many others. I tarried a while at the river bridge – three swallows flying above, a grey wagtail flitting across the river, small fish making their tell-tale rings in the water and a huge heron flew overhead. Lots of may flies about. I had a conversation with some very inquisitive young cows, in the field next to the river. They wanted to know what I was doing there!
Martin has seen a tawny owl, near Tale; Leonard has heard the cuckoo near Yellingham and Pam has had a heron in the pool in her garden (you don't want that!). The song thrushes are singing beautifully now – we had one in our garden trees.

Parchie and Parchina
Hi Friends,
I wonder if you have ever thought whether we mice who live in church pray? Well I have to tell you we do. When the school children come into church we always listen and pray with them and during services we sit with our family very quietly and join in the prayers. At other times we pray as well. Last thing with Mum and Dad, before we go to sleep, we usually pray for safety, particularly that we won’t be caught by the cats, and we pray for our relatives living in the fields and hedges and we give thanks for all the fun we have.
We have been having great fun this month. With it being so dry we have been out in the fields playing with our field mice cousins almost all the time. We have to be careful on the days when the people come and clear up the church yard though, those noisy strimmers are a real danger to us, so we dash off into the fields when we hear them coming. But when we come back the church yard does look nice.
We do love the days when there are soup lunches in church. All those crumbs we can gather quickly are great for us. No one leaves us out a bowl of soup though, which is a shame, so if any of you could have a word with someone about that we would be very grateful.
We also enjoyed seeing the new tree on the green celebrated and are hoping when no one is looking we can go and play under it. Well must dash, have to go and chase Parchina around the church yard – he he.
See you soon, Parchie
Wanted – New Playing Fields Committee
The current members of the playing fields committee have been looking after the playing fields for over ten years and we feel the time has come to hand it over to a new committee.
Over the years we have organised various fund raising activities, including barn dances, May Days, pub quizzes etc. We have also made several improvements to the playground, including installing the BBQ and securing the council funding for the newer children’s play equipment. Most importantly, we have kept the grass cut and the playground as tidy as possible.
You don’t have to have children that use the park to take this on, just the time and enthusiasm for a new challenge that will help the village you are part of.
If you would like to be part of a new committee to take on the Playing Fields we would welcome you to meet us at The Six Bells on Wednesday, the 7th of June at 7.30pm. See you then.

Payhembury Tennis Club
Payhembury Tennis Club is one of the few sporting organisations in the village and has a single tarmac court situated in the playing fields. It has a history going back 30 years when the court used to be grass. In modern times the tennis club has recently been successful in a bid to improve the facilities and surface.
People wanting to play on the court should use the booking sheets that are held at Payhembury Provisions and there is a small charge for non-members. Membership forms can also be obtained on line, at the Payhembury Village website. Once filled out, please return the form with the relevant payment (cheque if possible, made out to Payhembury Tennis Club) to 9 Hillside, Payhembury, EX14 3HB. Annual fees are due in April: £30.00 for a family; £20.00 for a couple; £15.00 for a single; £10.00 for a junior, OAP or student. We feel these prices are very good value, as they give members free access to the court all year. And becoming a member enables the court to remain well maintained.
Our Committee: Jane Wood, Chairperson Jason Wood, Secretary Anne Lush, Treasurer
Contact 01404 841843 for details on the club.
We are only a small committee, and anyone who would like to get involved please get in touch.
Payhembury Provisions News
We're always delighted when we find a new local product to sell at the shop and this month we are going to stock a really indulgent sweet treat made in Broadhembury called Frandie macarons. If you were at the recent Broadhembury craft market you would have seen boxes of these flying off the shelves together with their jars of Gloop! which is a delicious sauce, in flavours including chocolate fudge or salted caramel...just right for spooning on ice-cream or for dipping fresh fruit in....mmmm!
We have all seen price increases in supermarkets in the last few months and of course we are not immune to them at Payhembury Provisions, but we do try very hard to keep them to an absolute minimum. Did you know that we are still selling our milk from Gundenham dairy near Wellington at the same price it was when we first opened six years ago?!
Finally, polling day is nearly here and just to prove how impartial we are at the shop we have been stocking up on prosecco for those who will feel like celebrating the result, Doom Bar beer to drown their sorrows for everyone feeling gloomy, and for those who are way past caring there's new fruit flavoured cider!
Happy voting!
