This takes into account all matches played in the League since 2003, up to the end of the 2018 season. Each year we will add another chapter! The records comprise of some fantastic achievements over the last two decades, and certain individuals have certainly played a lot of cricket! This is a great testament to the popularity and the success of the KRCL over this period. There is also a detailed section for each club containing specific milestones. I’m delighted to even see my name in the Sidcup section – I remember that day very well! For the observant reader, you will note that the Kent Regional Cricket League was actually founded in 2010 when the existing East and West Kent Feeder Leagues merged. The current records go back to 2003, and in time hopefully we will be able to dig out additional records from before this period. Records show that the league officially started in 1974 and was known as the Mid-Kent League. This ran until 2000, when there was a split and the West Feeder League started. In 2001, the Mid-Kent changed its name to the East Kent Feeder League and the recent history since then is well documented. Over time, we will try and add to these amazing records, but we will probably need your help. Tracking down old scorebooks is not an easy job, so if you come across any, Andy and myself will be delighted to hear from you. Going forwards, please ensure that your scorecards are loaded correctly and containing all the facts and figures. This will help us achieve an even better history of the League over future seasons. All that leaves me to say is a HUGE thank you to Andy Lynch for his amazing work in compiling this document. Please thank Andy if you get a chance, I know many people are keen to see records such as these – I’m sure I will be highlighting the Sidcup CC entry on social media in due course! Brian Smith Kent Cricket League Administrator Chairman - Kent Regional Cricket League 8 Editorial ‘Enjoy the game and chase your dreams. Dreams do come true!’ – Sachin Tendulkar. ‘Cricket is the onlky sport in the world where you are absolutely horrible at something and you still need to go out and do it’ – Harsh Bogle. Whichever end of the spectrum you fall into between Harsh and Sachin, I hope there’s something for everyone in this inaugural edition of the records for the Kent Regional Cricket League. It’s been a little easier than a similar exercise that has been run on the Kent Cricket League, given that the bulk of scores (in fact all since 2003) are available on Play Cricket. As Brian says though, we may look to take the records back further, so anything clubs can do to assist in this with old records, scorebooks etc. would be gratefully received! In reading this, it should be borne in mind that the probability of errors (which I have obviously sought to avoid) is very high, given the level of manual work that has taken place. I will also confess that much took place in evenings during the Winter and was not always conducted in entirely teetotal conditions. Should you spot such an error, then could you please; a) Not shout at me. b) Contact me to let me know of the correction needed by either of the means shown below. I hope this is of interest anyway, and whether you are a Little Master or a little cr#p, I wish you the very best of seasons in 2019.

  • Bexley Bird Report 2016
    Bexley Bird Report 2016 Kingfisher –Crossness – Donna Zimmer Compiled by Ralph Todd June 2017 Bexley Bird Report 2016 Introduction This is, I believe, is the very first annual Bexley Bird Report, it replaces a half yearly report previously produced for the RSPB Bexley Group Newsletter/web-site and Bexley Wildlife web- site. I shall be interested in any feedback to try and measure how useful, informative or welcome it is. I suspect readers will be surprised to read that 153 different species turned up across the Borough during the 12 months of 2016. What is equally impressive is that the species reports are based on just over 13,000 individual records provided by nearly 80 different individuals. Whilst every endeavour has been made to authenticate the records they have not been subject to the rigorous analysis they would by the London Bird Club (LBC) as would normally be the case prior to publication in the annual London Bird Report (LBR). This report has also been produced in advance of the final data being available from LBC as this is not available until mid-summer the following year – it is inevitable therefore that some records might be missing. I am, however, confident no extra species would be added. The purpose of the report is four-fold:- To highlight the extraordinary range of species that reside, breed, pass through/over or make temporary stops in the Borough To hopefully stimulate a greater interest not only in the birds but also the places in which they are found. Bexley Borough has a wide range of open spaces covering a great variety of habitat types.

  • Bexley RSPB Group – Walk Lamorbey Park Thursday 7 February 2019
    Bexley RSPB Group – Walk Lamorbey Park Thursday 7th February 2019 Previous visits to Lamorbey Park have been in April (2016) and October (2017) so it would be interesting to see what winter would produce. A magnificent turnout of 19 with about a third making a first visit to this local gem were prepared for any weather – very strong overnight winds had abated a little and sunshine, blue sky and threatening rain clouds prevailed during the morning visit but fortunately no actual rain. Assembling in the Sidcup Leisure Centre car park gave us an opportunity to scan Marlow House for the peregrine falcon – great telescope views of the box before Gary located a sitting bird on an office window sill two floors lower down. What a great start. Moving into the park and trying to hear bird-song over the animated shouts and squeals of the local school children was a little challenging but fortunately is wasn’t long before the shout of nuthatch went up (from one of our observant members – not the school children). Eventually two birds (a pair?) gave good views in and around two large conifers. Of course, standing still following these birds one, possibly two, goldcrests, blue and coal tits were also seen. In the knowledge that a firecrest had been seen we spent some time in the favoured location but to no avail only more blue tits, robin and great tit. Continuing the walk between Chis & Sid School and the lake, magpies, crows, woodpigeons, parakeets and robins, blue and great tits were noted and on the “choppy” water of the lake, plenty of mallard, moorhen, coot and Canada geese were attracted to some bread being thrown.

  • Section 1 – Introduction and Background
    SECTION 1 – INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Introduction and background Introduction 1.1 Bexley’s Open Space Strategy and PPG171 Audit and Assessment (referred to as the Open Space Strategy), sets a framework for the future planning and management of open spaces, outdoor sport and recreation facilities by encouraging various service areas to effectively plan for the future delivery and implementation of improvements. The London Borough of Bexley has formally adopted both the Open Space Strategy, published separately, and this Open Space Strategy Technical Paper. The Council adopted the Strategy and this Technical Paper on 4 December 2008 and, therefore, both documents will be a material consideration when making decisions on planning applications. 1.2 Both the OSS and this Technical Paper include an Action Plan: at Section 12 of this document; and at Table 7.1 in the Strategy. The action plan will be implemented by various services and periodically reviewed. This document will inform further management or action plans for the various services. The Open Space Strategy 1.3 In November 2007, London Borough of Bexley (the Council) appointed consultants PMP to produce its Open Space Strategy (OSS), which is a strategic framework and assessment of all our open space, outdoor sport and recreation facilities. 1.4 This consultants’ work was undertaken in accordance with the requirements of Planning Policy Guidance Note 17 (PPG17): Planning for Open Space, Sport and Recreation (July 2002), and its Companion Guide2 (September 2002). 1.5 Policy 3D.12 of the Mayor’s London Plan (February 2008) states that London borough councils should prepare open space strategies to understand the supply and demand of open spaces and to identify ways of protecting, creating and enhancing them and improving the quality of open spaces.

  • I Would Like to Be Considered for the Position of Overview and Scrutiny
    AGENDA ITEM: 10(b) Page nos. 100 – 145 Meeting Cabinet Date 8 June 2009 OPEN SPACES IN BARNET REVIEW REPORT OF THE CLEANER, GREENER, TRANSPORT & DEVELOPMENT OVERVIEW AND SCRUTINY COMMITTEE 100 1. SCOPE OF THE REVIEW 1.1 On 16th February 2008 the committee concluded the Parks in Barnet review. At the Cleaner, Greener, Transport and Development OSC meeting on 16th February 2009, the committee considered Councillor Julie Johnson’s Member’s item – “As I said in the council chamber at the last full council meeting I would be asking the committee to agree to extend the parks review to include open spaces. Open spaces are an integral part of Barnet’s green environment and obviously all members of this committee are well aware of how important these are to their own constituents. However some are under utilized for various reasons whilst many such as the Welsh Harp Reservoir and Scratch Woods for example are popular and well used. Criterion- 1) What level of public use is made of open space? 2) Is there any local or community involvement ( friends group, wildlife watch etc)? 3) Is the standard of maintenance acceptable? 4) How well is the space publicised and is access clear and convenient? 5) Is public use encouraged by paths, bridleways, way-marking tree identification, picnic areas, organised walks and events? 6) What public facilities already exist i.e. sports equipment etc? But do all open spaces meet this criteria and if not is there more we could do to make open spaces a success story in Barnet? Can I recommend to the committee that members of the review working party visit a minimum of three designated open spaces each? Councillor Andrew McNeil and Mr.

  • Bexley RSPB Group – Walk Lamorbey Park Thursday 18 February 2020
    Bexley RSPB Group – Walk Lamorbey Park Thursday 18th February 2020 After consecutive weeks of storms Ciara and Dennis it’s time for birdwatch RSPB Bexley and much to our delight and surprise, 16 members/friends turned up at the Leisure centre car park to participate in a walk around Lamorbey park, just over a year since our previous visit here – the sun shone, a slight chilly breeze and a nuthatch calling very loudly from the nearest tree. The hoped for peregrines were not at home on Marlow House so off we wandered into the Glade with a second nuthatch calling – we were to enjoy fantastic views of this pair with another possibly calling nearby. A great spotted woodpecker also called from some way off. Nuthatch- Nicky Wilson Looking for nuthatch - Brenda Todd Robins and blue tits were the other vocal birds as we began our walk. The playing field yielded two mistle thrushes with ever present magpie and crows. Coming out into the open grassland, a group of woodpigeons were feeding and in amongst them were three blackbirds. Then, from the adjacent bushes, five redwings dropped in to enjoy whatever good food was present there. There was a nice backdrop of yellow and purple crocuses. On the lake we were greeted by the usual reception team of mallards, Egyptian geese (two), a lone mute swan (perhaps one from Foots Cray Meadows), Canada geese, coots and moorhen. Daniel, a junior member with excellent eyes, saw a flash of turquoise which eluded all of us for the rest of the morning. A pair of tufted duck and a single little grebe completed the waterfowl list.
