Calendar Cover Girl Carol Purton, who is undergoing treatment for breast cancer now - Picture by Dean Moulton Photography Tricia Stewart who was played by Dame Helen Mirren in the film The Calendar Girls was special guest at the launch of the Norfolk Gals Calendar at Richmond Park Golf Club at the end of September. Sarah Moulton from Watton, along with friends and family members 'got naked in Norfolk' to help raise support and awareness for Sarah's cycle ride around Cuba in May 2014 to raise money for Women V Cancer with Action for Charity. Sarah said 'I know that getting your clothes off for charity has been done before but I feel that our calendar is unique in the way we have used all Norfolk girls in all Norfolk settings to get our message across. Eighteen of my close friends and family have got naked in Norfolk in a very lighthearted and relaxed way' All costs for the trip to Cuba are being paid for by Sarah and her photographer husband Dean, who produced the Calendar. Proceeds from the calendar will be going to three cancer charities, Breast Cancer Care, Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust and Ovarian Cancer Action. Sarah said 'Even though the proceeds from the calendar are going to these particular charities, we believe that we are drawing attention and awareness to Cancer research as a whole. Everyone has been touched by cancer in some way be they a survivor or having lost someone close to them. I lost my granddad to Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma and my aunt to spinal cancer. My cousin lost her 6 year old son to Neuroblastoma. Carol, our cover girl is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer.' Calendars at 10 each are available from Edward's Newsagents, Adcocks and Wayland Garage in Watton and Pedlar's Gold, Market Cross and Just Hair in Swaffham. Community Centre on Wednesday mornings between 9.00am and 11.30am and why not enjoy a good cup of coffee there for 60p! Filled and wrapped boxes can be left at the Coffee Shop on October 30th, November 6th & 13th. Samaritans Purse would appreciate a donation with the box of 3 to assist with the cost of the transport. Also, if you can only get hold of boot sized shoe boxes, could you think about cutting them down to shoe box size with scissors and tape to help in their packing into crates and you will find them easier to fill. We appreciate your support and I am sure the children do as well.

We have just recently returned from another very nice trip to Weeze for the Kirmes Celebrations organised this year by the Weeze Music Club. Joining us on the trip were the Watton Town Mayor and Consort, Lorraine and Paul McCarthy. Although numbers travelling this time were lower than usual we still had a very busy four days starting with a Church Service in which the Music Club sang some really beautiful hymns, the acoustics in the church were wonderful. The days were filled with processions, music, dancing, singing, flag waving, bands playing, a duck race, games, a large bonfire to burn a large guy-like doll, a big fairground and lots of lovely food. In Twinning we all stay with our host families, which many of us have stayed with for several years, during the visit I was very lucky to have been taken on some tours around other towns and also had some time in Holland. I also spent time with other families and
friends that I have got to know over the past twenty six years of twinning. Whilst there, I also met another Lady Mayor from the town of Bergen in Holland who was invited to the celebrations, the Burgermeister of Weeze, Uli Francken is hoping that the town of Weeze will make a twinning link with Bergen. I have been invited to visit Bergen on my next trip to Weeze, something I am really looking forward to doing. There was also another group of people visiting Weeze from New Holland which is near Berlin, they told us the history of how they originally came from Holland to Germany and were involved in draining land that was useless for cultivation etc. hence the name. They also have a castle with an historical link with Castle Hartfeld in Weeze and were visiting to make a proper link with the owner. Although very hectic I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and always look forward to our next one, everyone is so We promise that only the interval icecreams, not the audience, will end up with teeth marks! One of Draculas reviews states that the performance is ...a highly inventive production that takes this familiar tale and turns it on its head, so we hope that you will gather up your garlic and come and join us for an enjoyable evening. Count Dracula is a busy vampire, and will appear for one night only, on Sunday, 13th October, at 7.30pm. Old School Halls doors open at 6.30pm, when the bar will be open. As well as bar service, tea, coffee and ice-cream will be available during the interval. The theatre company recommends that only children over 12 years of age attend the performance. Seats are not numbered (first come, first served) and tickets, priced at 9.00, may be purchased from Ian MacLachlan tel. 01953 851501, Jean Hanks tel. 01953 851611, or from Alan and Elaine at Rocklands Post Office.

On the other side of the nature coin it was apparently a good year for grouse, which were reared in great numbers, though of course it had the down side (for them) in that more were shot down ! And while the absence of birds has been rather sad, the butterfly population put on a fine show, with far more appearing than for many a year. On a more personal note, I have just received a new driving license, and, just as on my credit cards, I have been required to sign it, which is quite reasonable I suppose, except that the space in which to sign my name is about a third of an inch deep, while my normal signature needs at least an inch. The accompanying notes tell me that to exceed the limit shown is to break the law, so I have to scrawl illegibly in the narrow space, the result being unrecognisable and thus un-usable when presented as a means of identification. Surely I cant be the only person to have a signature that does not conform to the dimensions shown. In the wide world the same old arguments obtain on the merits or otherwise of the projected High Speed Rail scheme, which our Prime Minister assures us will bring great prosperity to the Midlands, albeit at a cost that will have us in debt for the rest of our lives. He maintains that thousands of jobs will be created, though every project makes the same claim, and, anyway, how can he know what the state of the country will be in twenty years time ? Of course if it all goes to plan it could be a good thing, but perhaps the money might be better spent on getting the present railways into shape. Luckily I am no longer dependent on rail travel, but I do hear the comments of those who are compelled to use our trains, and they have my sympathy. Take, for instance, one of the very simplest of routes that of Norwich to Great Yarmouth. Basically this consists of one short train travelling backwards and Heather Parle contributed original poems and the evening closed with Sara, Alicia, Kayleigh, Abra and Lorraine sending a delighted audience on its way with An Irish Blessing Light refreshments were served at the end of the evening. On Saturday the church was open for visitors to view the various crafts on display and marvel at the skill of others. The Hackers Tackers and Stuffers were on hand to demonstrate their patch working and quilting skills and the Wayland Lace Makers also demonstrated their craft. The Deputy Mayor, Councillor John Rogers, attended this event. The weekend concluded on Sunday with Harvest Festival services led, in the morning by Deacon Steve Sowerby and in the evening by Mrs. Elsie Warby. After morning worship members of the congregation enjoyed a delicious harvest lunch prepared and served by Mrs Anne Lawrence and her helpers. And coming up next on October 12tH - A and forwards between those two places, yet time and time again we hear on local radio that the train has been cancelled due to its failure or of the signals not working. And they have had two hundred years to get it wrong ! One of the constant worries of the powers that be is the state of education, particularly in Norfolk, where the latest Ofsted reports suggest that things have reached an all-time low. Could this be the result of the constant changes that are made to the methods used in teaching today ? The latest suggestion by the experts is that schooling should be delayed until a child reaches the age of seven years, a complete reversal of the present thinking. While not saying that the ways of fifty years ago were perfect, there did not seem to be the continuous changes that seem to apply today. Even the examinations cause ructions every year when the results are announced, with allegations of wrongly made markings by those in charge. Elsewhere, in the world of football, shock has been registered over the transfer fee amounting, with extras, to nearly 100 million pounds for one player. Such huge amounts, which can only be afforded by the very richest clubs, can surely only hasten the end of the game as we know it, for already each season sees at least one leading club forced into administration. There is also the real threat that one stray kick could injure this star player and put him out of the game for weeks or even longer. But, as in all sides of Show Business, madness seems to reign and enormous amounts of money regularly change hands, mostly wasted in the view of the general public. But here in the real world October heralds the return of the cold weather, though hopefully not too much of that. Perhaps we may even be treated to that Indian Summer the papers have been forecasting for weeks. sponsored Singathon when a group of enthusiastic singers will share some of the splendid hymns and worship songs in the new Methodist hymn book Singing the Faith.

Diabetes UK
At our September meeting we were very lucky to have as our speaker Dr Jeremy Turner, Consultant Physician from the Elsie Bertram Diabetes Centre, NNUH. He is also an Honorary Senior Lecturer at the Norwich Medical School. Dr Turner spoke with an equal amount of seriousness and humour about many things including the fact that 100,000 people in the UK are diagnosed with Diabetes every year, the relationship between Obesity and Diabetes and how in some cases Bariatric surgery may be the answer, the different types of medication now available for people with Diabetes and how information is vital in the research for the future treatments of Diabetes. He answered an assortment of questions from members, John was sensible (!) and Rod was quiet, always a first! He was warmly welcomed and we were very grateful to him for giving up some of his valuable consulting time to come and see us. Our speaker at the next meeting will be Julian Horn, who will be talking about Bodney Camp. The meeting is at 10.15am on Monday 14th October at the Pentecostal Church, Watton and we thank them for the generous use of their facilities. For details of this meeting or the group itself, please phone Helen 01953 884713 - leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Healthy Choices
Healthy Choices which took place in September, was an end of summer Town Team event put on by the Wayland Partnership and supported by the Brecks Food Festival. The Food and Health Fair on the 14th was preceded by an exhibition in the Gallery Plough to Plate when local artists made the connection in a range of media, between farming and gardening and what we actually eat. On Saturday more than 30 stall-holders food producers, bakers, confectioners, pharmacists, health and sports organisations and charities came to sell or provide information or offer tasters, health checks and demonstrations. In Chaston Place Norfolk broadcaster, food writer and chef, Mary Kemp, joined forces with Vanessa Scott of Strattons Hotel in Swaffham to demonstrate quick and easy healthy recipes hot mushroom soup was a welcome treat on what turned out to be a disappointingly damp and chilly day. Watton Radio reporter Paul Young was there to record the days events and so was Edd Smith from Radio Norfolk whose on-street interviews were embroidered into the Garden Party programme.

Councillors Chat
With Cllr Michael Wassell As many of you will be aware that on the 5th September I was elected Leader of Breckland District Council. Just as in 2011, when I was elected ward councillor for Watton, it is an honour and privilege to be able to serve my community in this way. Let me reassure you that my role as your ward representative has been at the forefront of my mind for the past two years and this will continue to be the case. Despite my other responsibilities I will never forget who I represent and to whom I ultimately answer. My contact details are at the bottom of this article and also on the Breckland website. I would urge you to make use of them whenever needed. While I cannot promise I will be able to provide a solution to all of the issues you raise but I can promise to listen to your concerns, try to address them, and always keep you informed. Some readers will perhaps be asking what the function of a Council Leader is. It is an all-encompassing role but one to which I am giving my all. It is proving a steep learning curve but both challenging and rewarding in equal measure. The role encompasses many elements amongst which are: Political leadership: chairing the Executive and Cabinet and sharing collective responsibility for Executive decisions; acting as the principal spokesperson for the Council; supporting, developing and managing members of the Executive. Corporate leadership: giving direction to the Chief Executive, Directors and other officers; providing political leadership to the development and implementation of the Councils Corporate Plan and Budget; working with officers to formulate and implement policy proposals. Partnership and community leadership: acting as an advocate for the local community and a spokesperson for residents; promoting Council priorities; building cross-district links that progress the Councils objectives; representing the Council and contributing to county wide, and national forums to promote Brecklands interests. Reporting and accountability: reporting to Full Council, Executive, scrutiny, regulatory bodies and stakeholders as appropriate. Residents will be aware that Breckland is in a shared management arrangement with South Holland District Council in Lincolnshire, this arrangement is saving in the region of 500,000 per annum. Despite sharing a management team all decisions that affect Breckland residents are made by the elected members of Breckland Council, all of whom are Breckland residents and all of whom have a passionate interest in doing what is right for the people who elected them. In common with most other local authorities in the country we face

Please support the campaign and let the Chamber know where these Blackspots are for each of the operators. We can then lobby on behalf of the area collectively. This goes together with Superfast broadband. The next announcement will be for availability before the end of March 2014.

Your Local Funeral Home Needs You If you know one end of a knitting needle from another, or are well versed with knit one, purl one, then drop into Breckland Funeral Services, 25 Norwich Road, Watton. We, at Breckland Funeral Services are appealing to all knitters to help create knitted poppies, which we can sell in return for a donation to raise funds for the Royal British Legion (RBL) Poppy Appeal. Breckland Funeral Services will provide the knitting pattern to all volunteers in time for Remembrance Day. Every year we support the RBL by providing traditional poppies, but we thought knitted poppies would be a bit different and perhaps more attractive and durable. We provided knitted poppies last year and they were really successful and so we are appealing for knitters again this year. said Laura Stevens from Breckland Funeral Services.
