There is never any knowing what you might see, hear or find in the shop. Often it is a men’s meeting place over a cuppa and a chat, yarns, humour and voices resonating around the building. Other times it might be a comment or joke coming unexpectedly at you from behind the till, but here is what I most remember. It is rather like a community hub where you can share local news, thoughts, insults and humour, it’s rather like care in the community where people are valued, their histories are known and they can just be themselves. Some folk no longer so mobile would have their shopping delivered to their homes after phoning through their shopping list. Dave and his band of merry helpers made this possible by helping each other out, isn’t that what village life is all about? I have been amazed at some of the more unusual items I have needed which he has been able to put his finger on in the shop. If he doesn’t have it, that is the challenge for him to find or get it. I would always try Dave’s shop as my first port of call as it is like Aladdin’s cave or Mary Poppin’s carpet bag. He is like the genie coming out of the lamp (from somewhere in the shop) to try and fulfil your wish. Various people have helped Dave in his shop over the years and in the same way he has helped many people in the village over the years - a good will exchange. I most love Dave’s laid back manner and wicked sense of humour. He was the first person in the village to commit his unlimited encouragement and support to the Monday Morning Poppins once a month, his positivity, generosity and offers of financial assistance (if required) helped make the first steps possible and without it we would not have existed for sure. If something was of benefit to the village and the people in the village Dave was interested. In a similar way his generous attitude extends to all the community events and his heart definitely beats a P.T.O. 5 community beat which is all about people and the things in life which really matter. A big thank you, Dave! Dave has asked me to pass on his thanks to the people who have helped him with the shop over the last 2 – 3 years when he has not been in full health. This help made it possible for him to keep the shop open. Jill Hocking Mobile Library Service The Mobile Library will visit Chacewater Parish at:- Twelveheads Chapel 11.50 am - 12.10 pm The Car Park in Chacewater Village 1.20 pm - 2.00 pm ~ then onto High View, Blackwater 2.15 pm - 2.35 pm on Thursday 19th July 6 Recreation Ground Community Project Recovery And Beautifying West End Corner (17th To 20th July 2018) As previously advised, there is an intent to bring life back to the western end of the Recreation Ground by removing the brambles and introducing a natural plantation area for us all to enjoy. A project for all the whole community to engage in, an initial “bramble attack” will take place throughout the week from Tuesday 17th to 20th July, at which point several members of the local community will be accompanied by representatives of the Highways England team involved in the future A30 dual carriageway works. We have also booked the Cormac Solutions Tool Trolley, so both tools and muscle will be on hand to give this a real go, but if anyone wishes to join in they would be most welcome. If you are interested in helping our, then please contact: Rob Knill on: 01872 561364, 07816 773218 or [email protected] 7 8 Chacewater Football Club At a recent well attended Annual General Meeting of the club, it was overwhelmingly decided to apply to re-join the Trelawny League. We now have to attend their AGM on the 27th June to make a case for ourselves to re-join before a vote is taken by the other member clubs. Hopefully, we will be successful in bringing football back to the village once again. Training has started with it being well attended and that is very promising for the future too. At the AGM the following were elected: President Bernard Harvey Chair Brian Charles Secretary Nigel Jewell Treasurer Lesley Thomas Player Registrations Jacob Englefield Managers Brian & Gareth Charles Committee above plus Sian Bennetts and Malcolm Symons. Grateful thanks to Mark Buckingham for stepping in to cut the Rec- reation Ground recently whilst the club's mower was being repaired. This year, Tina and Mark Main have stood down as Treasurers of the club having been in post since 2010. We gratefully thank them for their sterling service over the years and wish them well in their new home.

Just one of the reasons why we are saving to get an inclusive roundabout in the Play Area. The idea has been accepted as a worthy project by Calor Gas Rural Community Fund for which anyone can vote. Voting finishes at the end of June – so we’ll know soon if we’ve been successful. Meanwhile we have received several donations and promises from organisations and individuals – thanks for all of those. Other help has been given for fund raising ideas.
