Jubilee Takes Off with a Bang!

Praise was sung for Norleys own budding pyrotechnics coordinator, Landlord John Whitlow after he kick started the villages jubilee fun with a fireworks display. Rain held off and the weather was kind as the display got going at 10.30pm on Saturday 2nd June at the Tigers Head pub. A great success, the show attracted a large and appreciative crowd to the pub. People said the fireworks were better than bonfire night said John, who put this down to his having more experience now. They are nothing to what I have planned for this bonfire night, he added. As the bar staff was run off their feet in a busy top bar John joked that he should do fireworks every weekend.

Hilarity and keen competition at Norleys first pram race! Sunshine returned just in time on Monday as five teams limbered up for the pram race down Pytchleys Hollow, up Hambletts Hollow, along Norley Road and down Maddocks Hill.

and finished a convincing first. In second place was Andrew Querelle and baby.

At a slight weight disadvantage, comedy value was provided by fearless Chris Latham, 23, and his 26 year old baby Dave Whitlow on a homemade cart. An old pub chair was incorporated into the design for ultimate comfort as they hurtled down Maddocks Hill. Defying predictions of broken bones and bleeding knees, they made it to the finish line unscathed in third place. More comedy and delight came from the family team in final place, with Trevor Gleave as mother, in a beautifully tailored low cut floral maxi dress, which was charmingly complemented by black lace-up boots. Mark Platt as father and Richard Stone as the son completed the team, pushing Tilly Stone dressed as the baby girl in a pink romper suit. In a suspicious turn of events, however, half way round the route this family team lost their pram to marauding children who raced it back at a good pace. Then it was back to the beer garden for a barbeque followed by dancing to the live entertainment by Cheeky Monkey, a band with a big local following. The music they play is varied and they are very

entertaining said John.

Norley Makes an Exhibition of Itself


Villagers make a fantastic range of themed scarecrows, and celebrates Norleys past with tea, cakes and lots of pictures.

Parish Councillor Jon Wild adds the final touches.

While on Tuesday morning some slept off the antics of the night before, others were busy working their way round the scarecrow trail and voting for their favourites. Participation was excellent and there were 29 official entries to the scarecrow route. Several extras were also dotted around Norley pictured here in case you missed them.

Turnout for teas and cakes donated via Les Summers at the village hall was brisk and a display of fantastic old photos of Norleys people, buildings and lifestyle over the years, brought local history to life.

Getting to Know You . . . .


I'd like to introduce myself as the new Chairman of the Parish Council.Those of you who already know me will be aware that Janet and I have lived in the village for 17 years now. I have become involved in the PC through a concern over Planning Applications over the past few years. Originally I never really had an axe to grind about planning matters, but realised that when my own views were awakened on the subject many of my friends and neighbours held the same views. The problem was no-one seemed to be saying what everyone was apparently thinking and so some campaigning began. I am not a huge fan of the current system of objecting or commenting on individual applications as it always has the potential to become confrontational, which is why I welcome so much the opportunity given to PC's and community groups by the governments Localism Act. Through the formation of a Neighbourhood Plan there is at last the chance for communities such as ours to express the majority opinions and views and wishes for the place in

Thank You!
Norley News would like to take the opportunity to say a big thank you to everyone who contributed their time to making the jubilee a success. A huge amount of work was put in by so many people, including the jubilee and village hall committees, staff at the pub and of course all the creative people who made a scarecrow. It was great that the celebrations involved so many villagers.

which they live. This is not a process for stopping change or development, but for managing the changes which will inevitably come if we are to achieve the growth necessary for our economy to recover. The goal is a better place to live for all members of the community, not just for individuals or developers. Sustainability is a key issue under which all proposals should be considered. Some of you will already have heard me speaking about a Neighbourhood Plan, but the sheer scale of work required to achieve it is only now becoming clear as communities throughout the land become involved. Some villages already have design statements or Parish Plans in place. In Norley we are starting completely from scratch, and so it is vital that when the opportunity to get involved comes along please embrace it. Norley is a great place to live, it can remain so and be better still in future.

Missing Out on a Load of Hay

Parking On Fingerpost Lane a Polite Request


We have received a request from local residents that all who park on the narrow footpath on Finger Post Lane please be more considerate. Some cars are parking so that the most or all of the path is blocked, requiring pedestrians to walk in the road to get around the cars. This is not a safe practice, particularly for those who are less confident walking in the road, are older, have prams etc. The plea is to please think of your neighbours and other pedestrians when parking!

A swarm of bees in May is worth a load of hay, a swarm of bees in June is worth a silver spoon, a swarm of bees in July isnt worth a fly. So runs the old saw, relating to fact that getting a swarm when there is a likely to be a good nectar flow is a guarantee of both honey and beeswax. So when Dave at The Stores told me that there was swarm down Stanneybrook way I was keen to collect it especially as I had sadly lost a colony during the winter, weakened as it was by the depredations of wasps. Unfortunately the swarm had already flown high up into a chimney and was now happily making a new home blissfully unaware of its annoyed neighbours, a pair of nesting jackdaws. They werent a swarm from my bees, I suspect someone nearby keeps bees ( So maybe Im not the only apiarist in the village) as they usually fly a relatively short distance from their original home to settle.

No job too small!!

The last few warm sunny days have shown a dramatic surge in activity of the bees, literally tumbling out of their hives to bring back pollen, nectar, propolis (resins/gums) and water. Water is needed to dilute the honey so it can be fed to the larvae (baby bees) and is especially vital when it is hot to allow the bees to cool the hive. If the internal temperature gets too high the waxcombs will soften and collapse and the colony will die of heat stroke. In the hive, worker bees strop drops of water over their tongues which unrolls like a butterflys tongue (though not as long!) whilst fanning their wings. This causes the water to evaporate and this like sweating has a cooling effect. At the entrance of the hives more workers are furiously fanning moving the warm moist air out of the hive. The bees will do something similar with nectar and in the evening the smells from the hive are redolent of the flowers the bees have visited. Through the night you can hear a constant roar as the nectar is converted into honey. So intense is the activity that in the morning you can often find little puddles of condensed water at the entrance. The false spring in March allowed pussy willow, snowdrops, celandines and crocuses to be a very welcome source of pollen for the young bees, and enabled the brood (the bee nursery) to increase dramatically. But the cold wet wintry weather which persisted for weeks meant that this vital food became in very short supply. In some similarly awful springs it can get so bad that the brood either starves or cant be kept warm and you can find their pathetic little white corpses flung out on the lighting board. But bees are resilient and seeing them plundering my Tayberry flowers for the pale brownish pollen made me optimistic again of honey as well as jars of Tayberry jam. The Lime trees in School Lane look

in fine fettle, last year the honey from them was delightful, very pale with a slight greenish tinge and a lovely delicate flavour. So fingers crossed ,when the Norley clocks stand at ten to three there will be honey for everyones tea. Hopefully it will be on sale in the The Stores and at the Garden show in September. If things really go to plan there will also be honey fudge, spice balls dubbin, furniture cream, pine cone firelighters ,candles and even (sorry!) Christmas decorations. Finally avid readers of Parish council minutes will have seen mention of beehives. I like many beekeepers are reticent as to the siting of their hives as bee rustling (honest) is all too common. And on the subject of Commons, the late Reg Holmes knew that honeybees on and near Flaxmere had been kept there since time immemorial he always had a bait hive there to catch a stray swarm. On the ecological side the presence of hundreds of thousands of pollinating insects has been shown to maintain a diverse healthy plant population, the very basis of a thriving web of life. Any harm caused by two or three visits a week by a beekeeper are negligible compared to the benefits. Only the lizards sunning themselves on the hives (maybe catching one or two stray bees) have any legitimate cause for annoyance or alarm at the disturbance. As for the removal of any walkways the family of badgers that use it too may also have something to say on the matter. I suspect old Brock has been a resident in these parts for as long as the Moss itself has been here.

Ironbridge
Wednesday 18th April, class three went on a school trip to Ironbridge, it was a joint trip with Kinsley st John. Wednesday morning, at 9:15am the bus came to take us to Ironbridge, Kinsley got picked up first so they were already on the bus. We all lined up at the door raring to go, all mums and dads coming to wave good bye. We got on the bus and started are journey.

After the one and a half hour journey we arrived at Blists Hill. We got off the bus, relieved the bus journey was over, and then went to change our money to Victorian money in the Victorian town. After changing our money we went shopping in the Victorian shops. There was a wide variety. My personal favourite shop was the sweet shop. There was also a fair-ground. After all the shopping, we all met in a lunch shed and had are lunches. When we had finished we shared our favourite bit so far, then we went shopping a bit more to get round more shops. The year six girls went to the fair-ground and there we two rides, and other little activities. We went on one ride twice and the other ride once. When we had finished shopping we got back on the bus and went to settle down in the youth hostel we were staying in. To settle down we had some free time where we could unpack our bags and the make the beds and things like that. When we had finished we went down for tea. After the yummy food we went to a different part of the building and played two games these were: marble run and mine sweeper. After that we went to our rooms to get ready for bed (we didnt go to bed that early!) In the morning we went down for breakfast at 8:30am. After that we did a variety of games: photo hunt, Victorian games, candle dipping and drama (this took the whole day). Next we went back to the main part of the building and had tea, and then we went to bed.(we had a midnight feast, yummy!) This was the day we were going home, but before we did we went on the bus to Enginuity hands on science museum.

Golf Skills

Forest Walk in Delamere


On Thursday 17th of May we had a trip to Delamere Forest.

On Wednesday the 2nd May a mixture of children from classes 2 and 3 were chosen to take part in a Golf Skills Challenge at Pryors Hayes golf club. When we got there we met a man called Roger Shutt who talked us through what we were going to do; a variety of skills, putting, chipping, long shots First of all, we did three chipping challenges, the results of how good we were would decide if we went through to the final. Points were given if a golf ball landed in the significant area and were also given if it went in the hole.. We had activities to do between the main ones

First of all we arrived at school as usual and in our school clothes. Then we started our torturous journey through the mud and rain. It was a fun journey to the forest and I learnt a lot and one thing was not to fuss when we had to walk through 10cm deep thick and slushy MUD! Next we met up with our forest ranger called Helena in the Whitefield car park, and then we walked to visitors centre

and dropped off our bags at the classroom. Then we were off on our *Bogling walk. We Bogled all sorts of things like pine cones, sandstone and pine needles and put them in our *herbie poshtigs. Then we walked back to the classroom and had our lunch. Unfortunately one of the girls in year 2 lost her tooth so we had to wrap it up in a tissue so she didnt loose it. Then some of us played last touch. On the way back from the forest it wasnt raining so it was a better walk than on the way there. When we got back lots of people were saying Ive survived, and were pretending to faint and I thought it was really funny!!! *Bogling- collecting things from the forest *herbie-poshtigs- bags made out of natural materials.

We had a lady called Jess come to school and teach us circus skills. I learnt how to juggle with 3 scarves and how to spin a plate.

There has been an increase in the number of reports of theft of horses in the Kingsley, Cuddington, Crowton and Norley Area. Some of the animals were thankfully returned to their owner but the incidents are worthy of note for all horse owners across the Rural Area and I would encourage a review of any security measures that are in place. A white van (no further details) was seen acting suspiciously near one of the incidents. High value mountain bikes have been stolen from an unattended vehicle in Delamere. They were secured to a cycle rack which in turn was secured to the vehicle. There have been similar reports of theft where the property has been secured by the owner and the thieves have none less managed to steal the property.

vehicle is left so as not to be remote or vulnerable in any way or by keeping your property with you at all times. A house in Station Road, Delamere has been the subject of a Burglary overnight Thursday 10th May. The offender(s) smashed their way through the back door to gain entry and steal jewellery and computer equipment. Any sightings of suspicious activity around the time in question or anything that just didnt look right would be appreciated. You may recall several weeks ago that I advised I was interested in any sightings in the Tarporley area of a blue BMW with blacked out windows, possibly on a 51 plate. The request was in relation to it potentially being involved in the theft of milk in the area. Can I remind you of this request as I am still very interested to identify the vehicle and believe it is still in the Tarporley area. A reassuring example of a recent outcome from a reported incident and subsequent police investigation - Two males from the Frodsham area have been convicted at court in relation to an assault and a theft from a motor vehicle which occurred at Frodsham Railway Station on 7th December 2011. One received an 18 week custodial sentence and the other a 12 month community order. Officers are making enquiries into a spate of damage that has occurred to vehicles in the Hayes Crescent Area of Frodsham overnight Friday 1st June. Mindless acts of damage such as this are fortunately a rare event but when they do happen cause unlimited amounts of concern and upset. If you have any information as to who the offender may be or have CCTV that could possibly help in our enquiries please contact Frodsham Police Station. Finally can I thank you for your continued support and awareness across the Rural Area. I have noticed this week a significant number of you have contacted the police with reports of suspicious activity in your localities. Some of these have been checked out by officers and have transpired to be all in order, others have assisted in identifying

offenders(s) or creating an overall intelligence picture to assist my deployment of staff. The fact that you are looking out, aware and letting us know is most appreciated.
