It was the fifth month in the early calendar of the ancient Romans. The Romans called the month Quintilius, which means fifth. A Roman Senate renamed the month to Julius (July) in honour of Julius Caesar, who was born on 12 July. The Anglo -Saxon names for the month included Heymonath or Maed monath, referring respectively to haymaking and the flowering of meadows." August "August, the eighth month of the current Gregorian calendar and the third month of Summer’s rule, derives its name from Augustus (Augustus Caesar). The traditional birthstone amulets of August are the peridot and the sardonyx; and the gladiolus and the poppy are the month’s tradition- al flowers. August is shared by the astrological signs of Leo the Lion and Virgo the Virgin, and is sacred to the following Pagan deities: Ceres, the Corn Mother, Demeter, John Barleycorn, Lugh, and all goddesses who preside over agriculture. During the month of August, the Great Solar Wheel of the Year is turned to Lammas, one of the four Grand Sabbats celebrated each year by Wiccans and modern Witches through- out the world." 3 Brough Parish Council The Parish Council Meeting was held on Thursday 20th June at 7pm in the Methodist School Room.

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.

  • Appleby-In-Westmorland Parish Newsletter March 2003
    Appleby-in-Westmorland Parish newsletter March 2003 Movin’ On I recently came across these 15 points that you come to realise as you begin to get a little older. Most of us can probably identify with at least some of them! 1. I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it. 2. My wild oats have turned into prunes and All Bran. 3. I finally got my head together; now my body is falling apart. 4. Funny, I don't remember being absent minded... 5. All reports are in; life is now officially unfair. 6. If all is not lost, where is it? 7. If God wanted me to touch my toes, he would have put them on my knees. 8. It is easier to get older than it is to get wiser. 9. I wish the buck stopped here; I sure could use a few... 10. It's hard to make a comeback when you haven't been anywhere. 11. The only time the world beats a path to your door is when you're in the bathroom. 12. It's not hard to meet expenses...they're everywhere. 13. The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth. 14. These days, I spend a lot of time thinking about the hereafter... …. I go somewhere to get something and then wonder what I'm here after. 15. When I'm finally holding all the cards, why does everyone decide to play chess? Our journey through life rarely turns out as we expect or plan.

  • Cumbria Eden Flood History 2013
    Cumbria Eden flood history 2013 Sources Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and, further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The main source for this study has been from newspaper accounts. Newspaper Sources Newspaper descriptions include much that is of human interest but only limited information which can be used to define the magnitude of the flood. It is only the latter information which has been extracted for the most part, indicating levels or depths on roads and buildings which may still be identifiable. Such details provide a means of assessing the comparative magnitude of floods. The two principal urban areas within the Eden catchment which are vulnerable to flooding are Appleby and Carlisle. Papers which cover part of Cumbria include: Cumberland Packet (Whitehaven) 1774 to 1915, Carlisle Journal, 1801 to 1960s, Carlisle Patriot (later Cumberland News) 1815 to present Penrith Observer, 1860 onward West Cumberland Times(Workington) 1874 onward Westmoreland Gazette (Kendal) 1818 onward The online British Newspaper Archive has a limited number of newspapers and years of record available for Cumbria. The following were available in May 2015. Cumberland and Westmorland Advertiser, and Penrith Literary Chronicle – 1855 – 1871 Cumberland Pacquet, and Ware’s Whitehaven Advertiser – 1777– 1808, 1812 – 1871 Westmorland Gazette 1818- 1867, 1871 Kendal Mercury 1835 - 1870 Carlisle Journal 1801-1805, 1810-1811, 1814-1815, 1818-1820, 1833 - 1867 Carlisle Patriot 1816-1871 Note for later papers Lancaster Gazette 1870-1893 Lancashire Evening Post (based in Preston) 1886 – 1909, 1917 – 1921, 1924, 1929, 1930 - 1947 Descriptions are generally imprecise and without details of levels reached or the extent of the area flooded.
