We’re having to learn new skills and are experiencing new things. We have to experiment with different ways of doing things. The Annual Readers’ Celebration service usually held at the Cathedral had to go onto Zoom this year. It took a very different format, but it was excellent. I missed my retreat in June because of lockdown. So this month, I tried one on-line. I wasn’t at all sure how it would work out because I thought that, being at home, there’d be too many distractions – the phone ringing, emails to answer, and jobs around the house that needed doing. However the Northumbria Community produced a very useful ‘planning your retreat’ video with helpful suggestions about limiting time spent on emails, television and news broadcasts. I’m still limiting the news broadcasts! The retreat itself was very restful. I love the Northumbria Community services. It’s what we use for the on-line Morning Prayer on a Wednesday. (If you want to try it, let Debbie in St Mary’s Office have your email address, and she’ll send you the weekly bulletin with the necessary link in it.) What came out of the retreat for me was the word ‘unshackled’. In a time when we are shackled by restrictions on social gatherings and, in some places, with limited freedom of movement, it seemed an out-of-place word. But on reflection, I realised that when we first went into lockdown, my weekly structure disappeared and, after initially enjoying the freedom – getting the garden straight and catching up on the DIY – I found it hard not having much to do, so was tempted to look for tasks to fill the void. What my retreat time reminded me was that I didn’t have to shackle myself with activity; I could just take time to ‘be’, to wander round the garden enjoying the plants instead of noting the weeds, to walk on the beach or by the river looking and listening to God’s world. As lockdown eased, so some things are starting up again. But I need to keep in mind that even when we are shackled by Covid 19, we can still chose to be unshackled in our approach to daily life. If this resonates with you, try an unshackled hour a day putting the ‘I must’ and ‘I ought to’ aside and just enjoy ‘being’ rather than ‘doing’. God bless you and keep you safe. Sarah 4 EDITORIAL Dear Readers, Please feel free to send me any photos / poems / thoughts / “thank- yous”/ stories / ideas or anything else you might like to share for the next issue of the Crosslet. All will be welcomed. Please send them to me at:- [email protected] From the Parish Registers Mollie Grant was laid to rest at St. Swithun's Littleham on Friday 18th September 2020. May she rest in peace as we remember her and her family. Nick Beckley was laid to rest at St. Swithun’s Littleham on Saturday 19th September. We remember him and all who loved him. May he rest in peace. Thank-yous Big thanks are due to all our lovely churchyard volunteers who have kept our churchyards looking so beautiful over the summer. We are really grateful for their gifts of generosity and expertise. Many people have commented on how well-kept the churchyards are, and we have been able to experiment a little with leaving uncut areas which looked absolutely stunning and featured in our online services. Thanks are due to as well to our stalwart wider community volunteers who have helped steward our services, clean our churches, support the marking of VE and VJ day – you know who you are and we have been touched by your offers of support. (more thankyous p.18) Memorial services This year our usual 4 parish Memorial service will be marked in a different way, due to the restricted numbers our churches can accommodate at present. All those who have lost loved ones in the last 18 months will be invited to submit their names to be included in a memorial section of our on-line service on Sunday 1st November, when we celebrate the Feasts of All Saints and All Souls. Everyone who is normally contacted about the service will receive a card to say we are thinking of you at this time and will include you in our prayers during this Season of Remembering. November is the time when we remember those dear to us and also the fallen – a time for reflection and quiet, as our earth prepares for her winter sleep. But the buds of spring can already be seen on branches and we look forward in hope to the coming of the Christ child in dark days – a renewal of life and hope and the promise that we will be reunited together in heaven. 5 New Government Test and Trace Support Payment scheme launched in Torridge Government grants to help support low income workers who need to self-isolate can be applied for through Torridge District Council from Monday 12th October.

(This equates to 40 hours x £9.30 Real Living Wage).This means that if someone has earnings above this level then they would not normally be eligible unless there was an exceptional circumstance. • A minimum number of hours that an individual will need to be working is 16 hours per week.

Parminter Early Records Jane and Mary Parminter were second cousins and the founders of A la Ronde at Exmouth but their family ancestry goes back through many centuries. The Parminter surname is of Norman origin and derived from the early French trade name parmentier (a tailor) and was found in England shortly after the Norman invasion of 1066. There are records from the thirteenth century 1 of people of that name settled, well established and leasing land in the Gloucestershire village of Tockington, twelve miles north of Bristol, where a John Parminter was recorded in 1220.

A major initiative is the commitment to produce Catchment Management Plans setting out the Authority’s vision for realising the potential of each local water environment. An important stage in the production of the plans is a period of public consultation. The NRA is keen to draw on the expertise and interest of the communities involved. The first plan for consultation in the South West is for the freshwater River Torridge Catchment. The NRA looks forward to receiving comments on the attached draft.

  • Littleham Cove Native Copper (UK)
    Littleham Cove native copper (UK) Description: The Devon natural analogue site is an occurrence of metallic copper segregations in a mudstone formation. The site is situated in Devon, SW England, at Littleham Cove near the mouth of river Exe (Figure 1). Geologically the formation belongs the Permian-Triassic sedimentary rock sequence, accumulated more than 200 Million years ago in a large-scale geological depression (the Wessex Basin). The depositional environment was non-marine, rather dry (arid – semiarid), as indicated by the typical red colour caused by oxidized iron (‘red-bed’ deposition). As well as in many other ‘red-bed’ formations, accumulation of uranium-vanadium and Cu (+ other heavy metals) is a typical feature of this sedimentary sequence. Figure 1: Location and geology of the Littleham Cove area (Milodowski et al. 2002) Figure 1 shows the geology of the site, displaying a gently eastward dipping sequence: the formations get gradually younger from the Lower Permian around river Exe to Triassic around Budleigh Salterton. The Pebble bed has been interpreted to represent the lowermost Triassic sedimentation (about 250 Ma ago). The Upper Permian Littleham Mudstone Formation is the specific target of the Devon copper-analogue study. Metalliferous concretions are typical to the Littleham Formation, and are studied in details by Harrison 1975, Milodowski et al 2000, Milodowski et al 2002. Uranium-vanadium rich concretions are most common. The concretions, occurring in localized horizons, are best exposed in cliffs and low-tide shoreline. Often these segregations consist of a U-V-clay mineral core with a surrounding bleached reduction spheroid, giving a ‘fish-eye’ appearance to the concretion.
