He even enjoyed putting some money on a horse or two. That side never interested me, but from time to time I would go with him. I liked to look at the horses in the paddock. I was a pony mad little girl. I wasn’t much bothered about the racing. There was always a buzz about the race meeting and plenty of characters to watch. Among the crowds, I remember a man with a sandwich board. He’d painted on it dire warnings about the end of the world and the sinfulness of the whole human race. ‘The end of the world is nigh,’ he would cry out to anyone who cared to listen. I suppose his message didn’t fall entirely on deaf ears. I remembered him. But his message was always interspersed with friendly greetings to the abject sinners he regularly met at the races. ‘Morning!’ ‘Afternoon!’ He would raise his flat cap and smile. ‘The end is nigh ...’ There are many different ways Christians choose to communicate their love of God. They might show it by being kind, by showing respect or working for reconciliation. They might be passionate for justice and speak up for those who have no voice. They might be community builders, or great thinkers, musicians or artists, inventive scientists, careful professionals or conscientious practical people. They might simply be good neighbours, devoted friends, hospitable to strangers. They might be the people who collect from house to house for Christian Aid. It’s also about how people are as well as what they do. ‘Love God and do what you like,’ is one of the sayings attributed to St Augustine of Hippo in the 4th and 5th centuries. That’s not a license to do anything you please regardless. The bit about loving God comes first and that colours and guides the way people act, speak and behave. It ties in with the prayer that Jesus taught his friends that begins ‘Our Father’. ‘Thy kingdom come’ is a phrase from the prayer in its traditional form. That’s not just wishful thinking. It’s about people committing themselves to take on their part in living and communicating a restored relationship with God. The work is already done in Jesus’s death and resurrection by God’s grace. The prayer is a way of human beings responding to that love. Someone once described it as letting ourselves move along in God’s slipstream. ‘Thy kingdom come’ has been used as a title for a prayer initiative now spread across the world between Ascension Day (this year May 10th) and Pentecost (this year May 19th). If you would like a particular prayer or person or concern to be prayed for as part of this wave of prayer, there’s a tear off sheet a bit further on in the magazine that you can use if you would like to. Put it in the letter box next to the side door of the church on Hale Road and the prayer will be included at Morning Prayer at All Saints at 8.30 each morning. Meanwhile the Lord’s Prayer is prayed continually across the world: ‘Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.’ Clair Jaquiss The Annual Parochial Church Meeting is on Sunday 22 April at 11.30am in the Church Hall. Hear the past year reviewed and be part of visions for the future. Refreshments will be available before the meeting. All welcome. RINGWAY AND HALE BARNS WI Ringway and Hale Barns WI was formed just over 60 years ago and has about 25 members. We would love to increase that number so if you are interested in joining us, please give us a try! Most of our members are from Hale and Hale Barns and enjoy meeting up once a month to have a chat, a cup of tea or coffee and sometimes home baked cake. Our Committee is made up of volunteers who do their utmost to provide entertainment for our members whilst raising funds to keep the WI going into the future. We listen to talks, watch demonstrations, have quizzes and generally enjoy ourselves for a couple of hours. We’ve had some excellent Speakers talking about subjects as diverse as cheese making, the destitute women and children of Bangladesh and the life of the mayfly! Our members take part in many events arranged by our fellow Stamford Group WIs and we hold our own events and outings. Over the years weekend trips have been arranged for members to go to Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey!), Highgrove House (the home of HRH Prince Charles), Durham and many other interesting places. Each year, in March, our Treasurer holds a Coffee Morning at her home and a Strawberry Tea in June or July. These events are always thoroughly enjoyed by all. The Book Group holds monthly meetings where members choose a book they have read and give fellow members an idea of whether they enjoyed it. Of course, sometimes it turns out that they didn’t and that makes for very good dialogue! The Craft Group recently completed a project to make Twiddlemuffs, which have been donated to the Dementia Active Therapy Unit at Withington Hospital. Members meet up, learn new needlework skills and enjoy a chat and a cup of tea. Some of our members enjoy taking part in the monthly County Walks, which are usually not too strenuous and the participants usually eat their lunch in a field half way through the walk. Each year our Darts Team takes part in the Annual Darts Competition at Dunham Massey so if there are any budding darts players out there, we could use you on our team! We have our own website cheshirewi.org.uk/ringway-and-hale-barns-wi so if you have access to the Internet, take a look and you will see what a happy bunch we are! Come along and join us as a guest, you will be made very welcome. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact one of our team.

I bought this copy of the 17th century nun’s prayer on a visit to Coventry Cathedral. When I’ve been feeling life difficult, I tend to read it and thought it might help other people. It is as follows:- Lord, though knowest better than I know myself that I am growing older and will some day be old. Keep me from the fatal habit of thinking I must say something on every subject and on every occasion. Release me from craving to straighten out everybody’s affairs. Make me thoughtful but not moody; helpful but not bossy. With my vast store of wisdom it seems a pity not to use it all, but Thou knowest Lord, that I want a few friends at the end. Keep my mind free from the recital of endless details; give me wings to get to the point. Seal my lips on my aches and pains. They are increasing and love of rehearsing them is becoming sweeter as the years go by. I dare not ask for grace enough to enjoy the tales of other’s pains, but help me to endure them with patience. I dare not ask for improved memory, but for a growing humility and a lessening cocksureness when my memory seems to clash with the memories of others. Teach me the glorious lesson that occasionally I may be mistaken. Keep me reasonably sweet; I do not want to be a saint – some of them are so hard to live with – but a sour old person is one of the crowning works of the Devil. Give me the ability to see good things in unexpected places and talents in unexpected people.

The Germans are ten miles away and advancing. There ap- pears to be no escape. There are 400,000 men to be evacuated. Avail- able warships draw too much water to get near the beaches, so smaller craft are needed. Volunteers come forward with their boats. It is one of the greatest rescues of all time by this fleet of small vessels designated “The Little Ships of Dunkirk.” The heroism of these volunteers becomes legendary.

  • Palmer 1 Alice Palmer Dunkirk: the Defeat That Inspired a Nation in The
    Palmer 1 Alice Palmer Dunkirk: The Defeat That Inspired A Nation In the spring of 1940, the defeated British Expeditionary Force and portions of the French and Belgian armies were evacuated under fire from the beaches and breakwaters of Dunkirk, a French port on the English Channel. While the evacuation marked the end of the failed campaign of the British Expeditionary Force, in the days and weeks to follow, Dunkirk was represented to the British people not as a defeat but as a victory achieved against long odds. Ultimately, Dunkirk would represent not only an unlikely success, but also a moment in which the entire country had been united and the greatness of the British character had been revealed. Although initially created to inspire the British people following a failed military campaign, the myth of Dunkirk would persist throughout the postwar period, retaining its importance even alongside the victories Britain achieved later in World War II. In this paper, I investigate the creation of the myth of Dunkirk, its endurance into the postwar period, and how the myth had been reinterpreted over time. The Myth of Dunkirk During World War II After the failure of the Allied campaign in the spring of 1940, the British Expeditionary Force, as well as portions of the French and Belgian armies, was driven back by advancing German divisions towards the coast of France.1 Hundreds of thousands of British, French, and Belgian troops became trapped in a pocket surrounding the French port of Dunkirk.2 On May 25, General Gort, commander of the B.E.F., gave the order that troops be evacuated.3 The Royal 1Jaime Burn.

On May 27, after holding off a German company until their ammunition was spent, 99 soldiers from the Royal Norfolk Regiment retreated to a farmhouse in the village of Paradis, about 50 miles from Dunkirk. Agreeing to surrender, the trapped regiment started to file out of the farmhouse, waving a white flag tied to a bayonet. They were met by German machine-gun fire. They tried again and the British regiment was ordered by an English-speaking German officer to an open field where they were searched and divested of everything from gas masks to cigarettes. They were then marched into a pit where machine guns had been placed in fixed positions. They lay among the dead until dark, then, in the middle of a rainstorm, they crawled to a farmhouse, where their wounds were tended. With nowhere else to go, they surrendered again to the Germans, who made them POWs. After the war, a British military tribunal in Hamburg found Captain Knochlein, who gave the fateful order to fire, guilty of a war crime. He was hanged for his offense.

  • Dunkirk Little Ship Sails Again As Boatbuilders Bring History to Life
    THURSDAY, JULY 9, 2020 WEST BRITON 3 Carrot baton is carried in virtual relay for charity »»CARROTS have been carried from West Wales to Truro in a virtual relay for charity. Staff from Brewin Dolphin – each carrying a carrot – walked, ran, swam and rode bikes and horses for a total of 618km to raise more than £2,600 for Farms for City Children. That is the distance from the charity’s farm on the West Wales coast, via its other farms on the River Severn and near Okehampton, Devon, to the investment management firm’s office in Truro. Growing vegetables is part of the experience offered by Farms for City Children, which was founded by author Sir Michael Morpurgo and his wife Clare – hence the carrot baton. Each participant chose how far they wanted to go and by what means – one managed 74km. Brewin Dolphin assistant director Rhiannon Bates said: “The pandemic has made it even more important for children cooped up for months in cities to enjoy the countryside once government guidelines permit.” To donate, visit justgiving.com/ fundraising/brewindolphinsw 6 Fleury II, one of the Little Ships used in the Dunkirk evacuation 80 years ago, has been restored to her former glory by Cockwells boatbuilders Photos by Andrew Wright farmsforcitychildren Arts organisation Dunkirk Little Ship sails again as to spread the word »»AN arts organisation dedicated boatbuilders bring history to life to sharing the joy of words has been chosen to bring a national by OLIVIER VERGNAULT Built in Christchurch, Dorset, in hard-to-reach areas.
