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. Life has a habit of throwing the unexpected at you, some things easier to cope with than others. Often it’s a bit like the narrow roads here. More than once I have driven around a corner, unexpectedly hit a stone fallen from a wall, and ruined my tyres. However, the good news after all this negativity is that we have a God who loves us and, through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, understands the problems and struggles we have. How often do we remember that he will always listen to us and keep us going? As the hymn says, “As I travel through the bad and good, Keep me travelling the way I should; Where I see no way to go, You’ll be telling me the way I know: And it’s from the old I travel to the new; Keep me travelling along with you.” Every blessing, Joy Rulton Registers BAPTISMS 26 January 2003 St Lawrence’s Joseph George Andrew Stewart 2 February 2003 St Lawrence’s Joel Daniel Crackles 16 February 2003 St Lawrence’s Robbie Deighton Sam James Hindson

Round & About the Churches St. Lawrence’s

“Healthy Churches” You read about this meeting in the February Parish Newsletter but couldn’t come? Well, here’s what happened. Thirty people altogether, from St Lawrence’s, St John’s and St James’s, were there. The meeting was led by the Vicar of Morland (Simon Rudkin) and The Revd David Wood (Vicar of Crosby Ravensworth). We gave self-estimates of various aspects of our Christian life and work. On a scale of 1 (low) – 6 (high), these peaked solidly in the twos and threes and fours. After a break for bring-and-share refreshments, we set out various objectives for future development. A wide span of desirable objectives and schemes of action were put forward. On further reflection these were whittled down to a few over-arching concerns: that we should seek to understand God’s will for our corporate life, seek a corporate Vision for directions we should take in the future, be open to Change and ready to take Risks in setting our priorities. In other words the focus shifted from ‘my will be done’ to ‘thy will be done’. Such conclusions are not so snug as they may look on paper. They do not come easily to everybody, especially if you are our average age, which is well over - er – 42. In the near future we begin work to actualise these deliberations. THE DEAN COMES ROUND On March 10th, the Very Revd Graeme Knowles, Dean of Carlisle (and Patron of our two Parishes) comes on a one-day ‘get to know us’ visit. It’s hoped he’ll be able to visit our church buildings, meeting representatives of our congregations. He’ll see some of our countryside, visit at least one of our schools and eat with us. That evening, at 7-00pm, we hold a meeting in the Sands Lecture Room at which the Dean can ask and answer questions and listen to our concerns. This meeting is open to any who wish to come. Graeme is the un-stuffiest Cathedral Dean I ever met. Be prepared for a really stimulating time with him. On March 16th, the Dean will be taking part in our services. Murton at 9.15 (the Ormside congregation will be coming to Murton as well, as their own service is also at 9.15) - St Lawrence’s at 10.30 for the morning Communion Service and at 3pm for Choral Litany as part of the Evensong service. Again, the services are open to any who wish to worship with us. The Dean is famous for his good singing, and we hope he will lead the Litany – the first service ever to be translated from the Latin, back in 1543, and little altered since 1559.

The route follows Roman Road on the tarmac and unmade sections to Powis, crossing from there to Redlands Bank and reaching Bolton Parish Church around 12:15.

Appleby Town Council Meeting of February 12th 2003. The Meeting opened at 7-00pm with 12 Councillors and 2 members of the public present. Prayers were said by the Joint Chaplain, Fr. Tom Walsh. Police Report and Citizen’s Questions. There was no police report and no notified questions from Appleby Citizens. District Councillors’ Reports. Cllr Morgan informed Council about the meeting of EDC this week to set the rate. It was expected that an increase of 4.5% would be approved. The Traffic Warden parking ticket scheme was now in place in Appleby and a spot fine of £60 would be applied for all offences. A discount would be given for prompt payment. Cllr. Harland asked if there was an appeals system and was assured that one was in place. The Annual charge for a season ticket for Butts car park would be going up from £15 to £50. The Mayor raised the Capital Projects programme for EDC asking why out of £15milion allocated over 3 years, £11 million was being spent in Penrith. Cllr Morgan suggested that major projects tended to be placed in the main centre of population of a District. The Minutes of the Meeting of 15th January and the Special Meeting of 22nd January were approved. Matters Arising: CueDoc. Kirkby Stephen Council was to be contacted to find out what their arrangements were. BT were to be pursued over the proposed removal of Town centre Phone boxes. The action of Appleby WI in this matter was applauded. Broadband. Cllr Elliot asked why Kirkby Stephen had managed to produce a very full, well-documented case for Broadband IT access and, so far, we had not. The Mayor replied that it was in progress of construction. Reports: Planning Committee: The Report of the meeting of 3rd February was adopted and implemented. Cumbria in Bloom: The Report was noted. TIC-JWP Report: The matter of painting the High and Low Crosses was raised and it was indicated that an offer of 50% of costs had been made for this task. It was agreed, unanimously (see below**), that this offer be accepted and funds be made available for its completion. The report was noted for action by the Town Council. Town Clerk’s Report: The Report was noted New Fair Joint Committee: This report generated the longest debate of the evening, centering, quite rightly, on worries over Public Liability Insurance, responsibility for Funding Projects on Fair Hill and the involvement of Council being seen as tacit acceptance of responsibilities. The nub of the arguments was that the use of Appleby Town Council funds to pay for projects and the like conveyed the semblance of liability. It was finally resolved that funds be transferred from the Fair Hill account to the Town Council be used specifically for paying for these items and that this would only be using the Council as an intermediary and not as an agent. It was further agreed that enquiries would be made of our insurers concerning Public Liability insurance on Fair Hill and the EDC solicitor would be contacted to give an opinion on other matters. The Limited Company to run the Park and Ride scheme would be set up within the next 10 days. The report was then noted. The Town Meeting: This will be on Monday 28th April, 7-00pm, Moot Hall Mayor’s Business: The Senior Citizen’s Lunch will be on Wednesday 5th March, help with prizes and assisting at table was requested. Answers to Councillors’ Questions: The Government document on a Referendum for a Regional Assembly was presented and required answering by 3rd March. An immediate poll was taken of councillors’ views. 7 said they wished to see a referendum held, 4 said they did not wish to see a referendum held and 1 thought the arguments nicely balanced, but eventually decided against. The Monthly Accounts: Were approved. The Meeting closed at 8-30pm Next Meetings: March: 3rd Planning, 5th F&GP, 12th Council. All at 7-00pm, Moot Hall R. E Porter ** Unanimous. Where all Councillors present at this meeting voted in favour of the motion, none voted against and none abstained. See January 2003 p5 for similar usage.
