Many more people than you would normally see are taking their permitted 1 hour daily exercise around the village. There are many more conversations taking place, albeit at a safe distance, than previously. “Traffic lights” may become necessary over the old Idle bridge crossing given the weight of pedestrian traffic using it now. We are lucky the weather is pretty good at the moment—just imagine how much worse it would be if it was raining during the day. The gardens wouldn’t have complained though ! My favourite season is here and spring always feels an optimistic time as the natural world regenerates itself. Nature doesn’t stand still for any reason and there are so many sights and sounds to be seen and heard. This issue of Idle Talk focuses mainly on what natural sights can be seen around the area especially as none of the organised events usually advertised are going ahead. For that reason this edition is mainly pictorial with photographs from the local area taken during late March & April. While mostly they have been taken locally, several are from Chesterfield Canal Trust members and are attributed as such. If you have any photos taken during the lockdown, which can be published, please send them to me for inclusion in next month’s edition. Following my request to get more subscribers to the electronic edition another 12 people have signed up. There is still room for more, so if you know people who don’t currently take it please get them to email me at [email protected]. Looking forward to hearing from you We will continue with a nominal deadline date of the 24th of month. Best wishes for your continued wellbeing. Steve Digby (Editor) 3 Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service Message on April 16th NFRS are appealing for you to NOT light bonfires during pandemic. Due to an increased number of controlled burns within the last four weeks, Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service (NFRS) have seen a rise of 123% when compared to this time last year. The service is advising people NOT to light bonfires in the garden during the Corona virus pandemic. In recent weeks, the Service has seen a rise in the number of calls to bonfire and ‘controlled burning’ in residential areas after reports by concerned neighbours. NFRS recently attended incidents of garden fires spreading to nearby hedges, fences, sheds and even to houses. An incident took place in the Mansfield area which resulted in a loss of a summer house and resulted in fire spreading to neighbouring properties. Station Manager Paul Gair said: “As the weather gets warmer and people staying at home in line with government advice, we have seen an increase in residents lighting bonfires and we have had to deal with a number of bonfires that have got out of control. “We are now asking Nottinghamshire residents to refrain from having bonfires due to the potential health implications the smoke could have on the respiratory system. “We also ask you to consider the implications this could have on NFRS at this time due to unnecessary demand of bonfire calls.” Melanie Rozmus 4 Blossom along the path on north side of the Old Bridge Blue and White Bells 4 Bench outside Mattersey Church with knitted decorations Weasel “Kittens” (courtesy of Jan Warsop—Chesterfield Canal Trust) 5 Releasing a Jackdaw accidentally trapped in the house.

Wilson, tel: 01777-818846 Clerk to Mattersey Parish Council: Mrs. Adele Haddon, Contact Details: Tel: 01909-731565 email: [email protected] Meetings are held on the 1st Wednesday of each month (excluding August) commencing at 7.00pm in the Church Hall to which everyone is welcome. There is a public forum session to air your views. EXTRAORDINARY TIMES & COMMUNITY SPIRIT The world is living in an unprecedented situation which is putting lives and livelihoods at risk. The Parish Council hopes that you are all heeding Government advice and staying home and keeping safe. It is at times like this that communities come together to support each other and we would like to thank everyone who has been volunteering and helping others. Particular thanks go to Norman and Nicola in the shop who have gone to great lengths to ensure isolating families get deliveries. They have been frustrated by suppliers and have even tried to purchase goods from supermarkets themselves in order to fulfil customers requests. We hope that residents will continue to support their business in the future. Details of support groups, financial assistance, advice from Government and other notices have been published on the Parish Council’s website and Facebook page. VE DAY - PUT THE FLAGS OUT Sadly we will not be able to host our VE Day party on the Millennium Green, however that is no reason not to mark the occasion. Let’s put the flags and poppies out throughout the villages, drape your houses in red, white and blue, play those old songs from the 1940’s, dress up, have your own picnics – ‘Till we meet again …..’ 13 OTHER CANCELLATIONS The Annual Spring Clean and the Annual Village meeting are both cancelled. GULLY CLEANING – PLEASE MOVE YOUR CARS IF POSSIBLE The Parish Council has been asked to contact village residents to advise that Nottinghamshire County Council Highways’ regular gully cleansing programme begins this week and runs for a period of weeks in this and neighbouring villages. Due to the current lockdown restrictions, NCC recognise that more residents will be at home and therefore parked on our village streets than would normally be the case. Residents are asked to be aware that the gully cleansing teams will be out in our village and to avoid parking their vehicles near gullies where possible. We realise that this will not be possible at all locations, but the contractors will make best efforts to complete the works as scheduled. Any queries or concerns whilst works are underway can be raised with our County Councillor, Tracey Taylor at [email protected] or by telephone 07770 847086. PARISH COUNCIL MEETINGS The Government have introduced new short term regulations permitting necessary Parish Council meetings to be held via video conferencing. Meetings will only take place to discuss time pressured and urgent issues but they must still comply with the Statutory Regulations regarding transparency. It is hoped that the meeting on Wednesday 6th May will be held in this way via Zoom conferencing facility at 7pm. If this is confirmed then details of the agenda will be published in the usual way on our website. Those wishing to participate or briefly raise an issue will be admitted to the meeting but comments must be kept to a minimum to ensure the necessary business can be completed within 30 minutes.

  • Nottinghamshire Aviation Memorials
    Nottinghamshire Aviation Memorials Aviation | Aviation Memorials in Nottinghamshire We love to commemorate our aviation heritage. In Nottinghamshire We Love To Commemorate Our Aviation Heritage The diversity of aviation memorial locations across the county is impressive. These memorials are not just at airfield sites, but they can also be found in churches, village halls, on city streets and at remote countryside locations. Some memorials are relatively new, whilst others can trace their origins back Nottinghamshire decades. These memorials, some of them raised through public subscription, reflect the lives of national figures like Albert Ball VC; whilst others are simpler marks of respect that have been erected thanks to the efforts of small groups of individuals. There are even sculptures and pub signs that highlight the county’s contribution to the development of significant aviation technologies. Collectively they play a part in helping to commemorate the county’s aviation heritage. Many individuals had travelled from around the world to air bases in Aviation Memorials Aviation | Nottinghamshire to train as World War II bomber crews. A common bond that joins most of these memorials together is that they commemorate the lives of brave individuals who were lost whilst learning these new skills; often in difficult weather conditions, a long way from home and in a relatively congested airspace, caused by having a lot of airfields so close together.
