Rectory-ish Notes – June 2022

22 June 2022 By Sue

As I sit to write this article, we are in the throes of exam revision and preparation in our house. Those of you who are parents of older children I’m sure can relate to the conversations revolving around the quality and quantity of revision!! And as you read this now, we are well and truly in the thick of the exam period. Whether GCSEs, A Levels, Finals or end of year exams, 1,000s of children up and down the country are taking exams. I’m sure each of us can think of family or friends who are currently in this situation. For some, these will …

Warning Issued In Devon Over Scam Caller Pretending To Be Police Officer

16 June 2022 By Sue

Police investigating reports of a phone scam which has led to two people in their 80s handing over substantial sums of money are appealing for information. Officers are also warning residents in Devon to be vigilant of the scam, in which the caller is pretending to be a police officer. Detectives say they have had an increased number of calls about this scam over the past few weeks - particularly in the Exeter, South Devon and the Plymouth areas. In one case, the victim was persuaded to hand over more than £15,000, and more than £9,000 in …

Tale Millers Cricket Club – May 2022

28 May 2022 By Sue

Its quite likely to be June by the time you read this, I’m not sure where the time goes and Ive just heard that mother is already working on next Christmas’s hand illustrated Christmas card ! Whilst we haven’t had a home game just yet the Miller’s whites were first seen this year as far back as 20th April , when we made the short trip to Clyst Hydon on a beautiful sunny evening , ending in a three run defeat but more importantly some jolly tasty hot dogs being served up. Runs for Jason Wood, Sam Franks and Jon Pengelly and two wickets for …

Paul’s Nature Notes – May 2022

28 May 2022 By Sue

At a recent parish council meeting a few of us were treated to an intriguing talk about the Poffit Lane Rewilding Project. Now, like many others I have heard about herbal leys but had never actually seen any. What an incredible rich habitat they create, an absolute haven for insect and birdlife and when cut the fodder provides a far superior food source for the cattle that feed on it. The use of flails on most of the hedgerows will now be curtailed, which means that the hedges should thicken out and grow upwards, again to the benefit of all the …

Payhembury Provisions News – June 2022

28 May 2022 By Sue

By the time you read this we will all have had our volunteers’ supper cooked by Ed East with tables waited on by committee members, bar run by committee members, tables arranged by committee members, flowers arranged by a (recently stepped down) committee member, need I go on? We do this annually to go a little way to saying thank you to all our volunteers who do it all for the good of others, hence our name Your Community Shop. We all pull together and it runs pretty smoothly. What an asset to the village it is and talking of assets does …

Paul’s Nature Notes March-April 2022

28 April 2022 By Sue

For me this winter has been cold and, at times, quite wet and so it has been a welcome relief to have become involved with recording the flora and fauna of our parish. The first step was to obtain an up to date parish map and then familiarise myself with where exactly the boundaries lay and to track down several lanes and footpaths with which I am unfamiliar. Did you know that there are three very special ‘heritage’ things associated with Payhembury: the Payhembury Window, the Payhembury Cider Apple and the Payhembury Daffodil? As the …

Yellingham Farm – April 2022

28 April 2022 By Sue

Every month is a special month in the farming calendar, but May is one of the months for reflection on the early Spring months and the outcome of weeks of lambing and yet excitement about what the summer months will bring – lots of which is weather dependent. Lambing went particularly well this year and for the first year for a very long time, there is not one lamb on the bottle – yes, a relief! Mind you, it is lovely when my B and B guests get to bottle feed lambs which they thoroughly enjoy. However, for my sheepdog Nell, bottle fed lambs …

Reverend David’s May 2022 Message – Sea, Sand and Sabbaticals

28 April 2022 By Sue

On May 1st, I will set my Out-of-Office and answer-machine, press the Pause button on my parish life, and step into a 3-month sabbatical. It will feel strange. “We’ve got rid of the vicar for 3 months!” you may think. In the summer of 2006 I stepped into a Waterstones bookshop in Brighton. We were holidaying in Sussex. My eyes were drawn to a vividly pink book, engagingly titled “Everything Bad is Good for You”. It was a wonderfully positive book about contemporary media culture, and reading it reawakened something in me, a fresh love for life …
