I love singing hymns. And for me, ‘hymns’ don’t include many worship songs, although I know younger church members find these more accessible and many people enjoy the choruses. No, I mean wonderful melodies combined with profound words that, after seven and a half decades of singing them, are inscribed in my heart. On my deathbed I don’t think I shall be singing, ‘God made a boomerang and called it love’! Before anyone starts muttering, ‘grumpy old woman’, I claim the right to my preference, even though I acknowledge that some Victorian hymnody (rather like Victorian pews) has no place in our worship – both are of their own time, and can safely be set aside. Even the ubiquitous ‘All Things Bright and Beautiful’ is usually printed omitting the verse, ‘The rich man in his castle, the poor man at his gate: God made them, high or lowly, and ordered their estate’. No, he didn’t! But I digress…. Hymns, or at least their words, have sustained me over the past months. The greatest sadness is that we are no longer permitted to sing them in our distanced church congregations, and all choirs are all on hold. So much has changed in the past six months! This time last year I was going to a Prom Concert in the Royal Albert Hall and looking forward to a holiday cruise at the end of September. Now it’s Staycations all round and a goodly supply of face masks and hand sanitiser. I recently found an old Saga magazine from February – the circumstances portrayed therein suggest a totally different world from the one we inhabit today. Sometimes praying is hard (an understatement!) and when the going is tough I want to shout at God. I often do, in fact! I gave Him an ear-bashing last week when my beloved cousin was taken into hospital to die, my friend’s wife died after three weeks in a coma, and my son’s fiancée left him. Happily, I know from a lifetime’s experience that God can take our ranting and complaining. His people have always given Him an earful when things go wrong and times are difficult – the Bible is full of such instances. But we have to remember that all this trouble, this foul plague, this distanced way of life is temporary. It will pass. And even if things become worse before they become better, it’s all happened before. When the apostle Paul write a letter to the people of Thessalonica – present day Thessaloniki – in northern Greece, he told them that the present is tough, and the future may be tough, but ‘in everything give thanks to God.’ In EVERYTHING give thanks to God. So even if I can’t sing it in public, I can still pray the words of a much-loved hymn: Through all the changing scenes of life, in trouble and in joy, The praises of my God shall still my heart and tongue employ. Stay safe – and sing in the shower! 4 RECTOR’S RAMBLINGS It has been a great joy to be able to return to church services and we have now a fairly equal split between those able to come physically and those worshipping virtually. We’ve now worshipped in each church in the benefice (albeit outside at Hamooon) and it was especially encouraging to have near capacity at our benefice Evensong at Manston. Works have been going on in our churches – roof repairs at Child Okeford and Manston, a new vestry floor in Manston, and of course the well documented internal works at Okeford Fitzpaine. The wildlife areas in our churchyards have been a source of great inspiration to many visitors: the pyramid orchids in Child Okeford were particularly beautiful this year. APCM Child Okeford with Manston APCM will take place in Child Okeford church on Wednesday 16th September at 7.30pm. All are welcome and please observe social distancing and wear a mask. Service pattern Due to ongoing changes to regulations I’m finding it impossible to plan more than about a month ahead. Please keep an eye on the Pew News and website for up to date details. If you don’t receive the Pew News and would like to please send me your email address. You will then receive the weekly audio sermon too. Annual Leave I will be away on annual leave from 21st September until October 13th. We have managed to secure a raft of senior clergy to take our services and I will provide online audio services on the website for those not able to attend church during this time. Blessings, Rev’d Lydia YOUR CHURCH September 2010 It has been fantastic to have real church services again. The bells have been ringing on a Sunday morning and church begins to feel more normal again, with worshippers joining together in celebration. Zoom services continue and are well attended by people across the benefice, with a great range of ages from 7 to over 80. The churchyard has looked amazing all summer. We have had a steady stream of visitors taking time to tell us how much they have enjoyed passing through. They enjoy the peace, the beautiful flowers and the hum of activity from the wildlife. I have noticed common spotted and pyramidal orchids have spread into the newer wildflower areas. These flowers would never have had the chance to bloom if we had not introduced the new mowing regime. Mark, the mowing contractor, has started giving the wildflower areas their late summer/autumn cut, now that the flowers will have set seed. He has been busy all summer keeping the newer part of the churchyard looking immaculate and we are grateful for his hard work. The volunteers have been working all through the very hot weather, keeping up with mowing around the church. They are a small but diligent and enthusiastic team, who are doing a brilliant job. Please take time to thank them if you happen to meet them at work. 5 CHURCH SERVICES IN SEPTEMBER 06/09/2020 9am The Thirteenth Sunday Holy Communion Child Okeford Rev’d Lydia after Trinity 06/09/2020 10am The Thirteenth Sunday Morning Worship Zoom Mark Riley after Trinity 13/09/2020 9am The Fourteenth Sunday Morning Worship Zoom Rev’d Lydia after Trinity 13/09/2020 10.30am Holy Rood Day Patronal Communion Shillingstone Arch’d Penny 20/09/2020 9am The Fifteenth Sunday Morning Worship Zoom Rev’d Lydia after Trinity 20/09/2020 10am The Fifteenth Sunday Holy Communion Okeford Fitzpaine Bishop Karen after Trinity 27/09/2020 10am Harvest Morning Worship Okeford Fitzpaine Mark Riley 27/09/2020 6pm To be confirmed Mighty Okes SCC Steve Sexton 27/09/2020 6.30pm Harvest Evensong Manston Mark Riley 04/10/2020 10.30am The Seventeenth Sunday Holy Communion Child Okeford Arch’d Penny after Trinity BATTLE OF BRITAIN SUNDAY During September we will commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of the Battle of Britain, the first battle to be fought in the air. As explained in the August 'Hill' if the German's had achieved air supremacy by destroying the RAF's ability to attack a seaborne invasion fleet, we could have been invaded and the war may have been over before it had hardly begun. The end of the battle was formally commemorated on Sunday, September 15th, 1940 and I understand that national events are planned for Sundays, September 13th and 20th and Tuesday, September 15th. At 11.00am on Tuesday, September 15th, a wreath will be laid on the War Memorial in Child Okeford. Names of the fallen will not be read - but they will be read on Armistice Day. We will stand in silence for two minutes in tribute to the bravery and sacrifice of The Few, the 3,080 pilots from at least 14 different countries, 30% of whom died or were wounded during 10 short weeks of intense air fighting. All readers are invited to join us for this simple ceremony. Those who do should, of course, obey the 'social distancing' rules that may be in place at that time.

  • Radiocarbon Dates 1993-1998
    RADIOCARBONDATES RADIOCARBONDATES RADIOCARBON DATES This volume holds a datelist of 1063 radiocarbon determinations carried out between 1993 and 1998 on behalf of the Ancient Monuments Laboratory of English Heritage. It contains supporting information about the samples and the sites producing them, a comprehensive bibliography, and two indexes for reference from samples funded by English Heritage and analysis. An introduction provides discussion of the character and taphonomy between 1993 and 1998 of the dated samples and information about the methods used for the analyses reported and their calibration. The datelist has been collated from information provided by the submitters of the samples and the dating laboratories. Many of the sites and projects from which dates have been obtained are now published, although developments in statistical methodologies for the interpretation of radiocarbon dates since these measurements were made may allow revised chronological models to be constructed on the basis of these dates. The purpose of this volume is to provide easy access to the raw scientific and contextual data which may be used in further research.

  • Settlement Hierarchy and Social Change in Southern Britain in the Iron Age
    SETTLEMENT HIERARCHY AND SOCIAL CHANGE IN SOUTHERN BRITAIN IN THE IRON AGE BARRY CUNLIFFE The paper explores aspects of the social and economie development of southern Britain in the pre-Roman Iron Age. A distinct territoriality can be recognized in some areas extending over many centuries. A major distinction can be made between the Central Southern area, dominated by strongly defended hillforts, and the Eastern area where hillforts are rare. It is argued that these contrasts, which reflect differences in socio-economic structure, may have been caused by population pressures in the centre south. Contrasts with north western Europe are noted and reference is made to further changes caused by the advance of Rome. Introduction North western zone The last two decades has seen an intensification Northern zone in the study of the Iron Age in southern Britain. South western zone Until the early 1960s most excavation effort had been focussed on the chaiklands of Wessex, but Central southern zone recent programmes of fieid-wori< and excava­ Eastern zone tion in the South Midlands (in particuiar Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire) and in East Angiia (the Fen margin and Essex) have begun to redress the Wessex-centred balance of our discussions while at the same time emphasizing the social and economie difference between eastern England (broadly the tcrritory depen- dent upon the rivers tlowing into the southern part of the North Sea) and the central southern are which surrounds it (i.e. Wessex, the Cots- wolds and the Welsh Borderland.

  • Knowledge Organiser for Year 1 and 2 Topic: Local History Study / Book Topic: Beegu
    Knowledge Organiser for Year 1 and 2 Topic: Local History Study / Book Topic: Beegu Key questions: - Can you explain what an object from the past might have been used for? - Can you spot old and new things in a picture? - Can you describe a significant place from the past in your own locality? - Can you find things out about the past by talking to an older person? Key facts: Can you explain what an object from the past might have been used for? Can you spot old and new things in a picture? A loom is a device used to weave. The purpose of any loom is to hold the warp threads in place, to facilitate the weaver weaving the weft threads through them. The precise shape of the loom and its mechanics may vary, but the purpose is the same. Can you describe a significant place from the past in your own locality? Can you find things out about the past by talking to an older person? Harry was born in Bradford in 1888, fish and chip frying was a family business. He bought premises at White Cross which had formerly been the Silver Badge Cafe at a cost of £150, opening for business on 20th December 1928. He was so successful that 3 years later he built his "palace", based on the opulence of the Ritz Hotel, he installed fitted carpets, oak paneled walls and crystal chandeliers. Seating 250 customers, it was the largest fish and chip shop in the world! In 1952, he served fish and chips at 1912 prices to celebrate 25 years trading.

  • For April 2021 – by Eileen Truby You Are Holding a Dinner Party for 5 Gues
    U3a Creative Writing Group – “Writing prompt” for April 2021 – by Eileen Truby You are holding a dinner party for 5 guests plus yourself. The guests will be well known people, not necessarily living, but who have contributed to society in some way. Write about why you chose them and describe briefly conversations they would have had with each other and set the menu for the dinner. The guests I would invite are: Ventriloquist Peter Brough and his ventriloquist’s dummy Archie Andrews Ventriloquist Keith Harris and his puppet Orville the Duck Annette Mills and her string puppet Muffin the Mule Harry Corbett (magician and puppeteer) and his glove puppet Sooty the yellow teddy bear. Charlie Drake - Comedian/singer/slapstick artist Host - Eileen Truby The menu would be plain and simple and preferably something that could be eaten one handed as most of my guests would be using one of their hands to manipulate their puppets. I’d choose: Tomato soup with croutons so the guests wouldn’t have to mess about with breaking and buttering rolls. Homemade fish and chips, preferably served in newspaper (easy to pick up with fork or fingers). Finger bowls will be needed for use before dessert. Jelly and custard for dessert (easy to eat with a spoon). Drinks would be beers, wine, soft drinks and tea/coffee. I’ve chosen these guests as they remind me of the innocence and carefree days of my childhood. My children look at me as if I’ve gone mad when I tell them I used to listen to a radio program that starred a ventriloquist dummy called Archie Andrews.

  • Mourning the Sacrifice Behavior and Meaning Behind Animal Burials
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by CLoK Mourning the Sacrifice Behavior and Meaning behind Animal Burials JAMES MORRIS The remains of animals, fragments of bone and horn, are often the most common finds recovered from archaeological excavations. The potential of using this mate- rial to examine questions of past economics and environment has long been recognized and is viewed by many archaeologists as the primary purpose of animal remains. In part this is due to the paradigm in which zooarchaeology developed and a consequence of prac- titioners’ concentration on taphonomy and quantification.1 But the complex intertwined relationships between humans and animals have long been recognized, a good example being Lévi-­Strauss’s oft quoted “natural species are chosen, not because they are ‘good to eat’ but because they are ‘good to think.’”2 The relatively recent development of social zooarchae- ology has led to a more considered approach to the meanings and relationships animals have with past human cultures.3 Animal burials are a deposit type for which social, rather than economic, interpretations are of particular relevance. When animal remains are recovered from archaeological sites they are normally found in a state of disarticulation and fragmentation, but occasionally remains of an individual animal are found in articulation. These types of deposits have long been noted in the archaeological record, although their descriptions, such as “special animal deposit,”4 can be heavily loaded with interpretation. In Europe some of the earliest work on animal buri- als was Behrens’s investigation into the “Animal skeleton finds of the Neolithic and Early Metallic Age,” which discussed 459 animal burials from across Europe.5 Dogs were the most common species to be buried, and the majority of these cases were associated with inhumations.
