Editorial
As we all step out into the unknown at the start of 2016, the same is true for
this magazine. Some new series start this month and I sincerely hope the
magazine will reflect wider views than the traditional parish magazine.
The magazine aims to be financially independent and I am grateful for a grant
of £150 from Hoby with Rotherby Parish Council towards the start-up costs.
Since the cost of printing the magazines exceeds the subscription, we are
indebted to those individuals and companies who advertise. Without them,
the magazine could not survive. If you or your organisation would like to
advertise, please contact Josie Brown.
I would also urge the valiant band of distributors in the villagers to collect the
2016 subscriptions (£8.00) as soon as possible. Collected subscriptions should
be delivered to Malcolm Britton for banking. If you don’t receive a magazine
and would like to do so, please contact Simon Blake.
The future of the magazine will be reviewed in 6 months’ time. Before then
all articles, editorial letters, reports, photographs of local events etc, etc
will be most welcome.

FRISBY PLAYERS CELEBRATE 20 YEARS
Well there we were again, huddled in the small room off the main hall in
Frisby. It has doubled up as our dressing room since the village hall was
extended. Before that we had a small caravan at the side door in which we
sat, waiting for our turn to go on.
We had been rehearsing for several months prior to the performance nights
and this was the moment we had been waiting for; stepping onto the stage
and “treading the boards” before an audience. A lot of hard work and
commitment had gone into the preparation for the show. Would the audience
be receptive? Would we all remember our lines? Would we be able to put
across the humour of the lines?
“Old Actors Never Die … They Simply Lose The Plot” was an inspired choice for
our autumn 2015 production, with a first time Director in charge – Kate Baxter.
The cast was made up of fairly experienced actors and Kate’s casting was
absolutely spot on!
Set in a retirement home for retired theatricals, the three Mrs Sullivans are
thrilled when a new resident turns out to be a long-time friend ex actor of 212
films (even though he has been typecast in most of them!). However, they are
not so thrilled when they realise the next new resident, a French actor called
‘George Faberge’, turns out to be not French at all, but their philandering exhusband on the run from Russian gangsters! The result was a hilariously
chaotic farce as the larger than life characters in the play became increasingly
embroiled in a ridiculous and outrageously funny situation. We were
3
3
rewarded by a good turnout each night and very appreciative audiences, who
laughed loudly as the plot unfolded.
The Frisby Players amateur dramatic group always needs more members, not
only as performers, but also to help back stage and with front of house. We
try to put on some form of village entertainment twice a year, in the autumn
and the spring, but with people are so busy these days and it becomes
increasingly difficult to cast our plays. But we are endeavouring to continue,
to keep this energetic and enthusiastic village activity going.

THE CHILDREN’S SOCIETY 2015
I would like to thank you for all the support you have given to the Children’s
Society. It has made a real difference to the lives of the vulnerable children
and young people we help: from runaways to young carers, they all require
our time and support.
I am pleased to tell you that the box collection in the Upper Wreake this
November came to £626.72, this is very much appreciated.
If you don’t have a box already, and would like one, you can contact me,
and I can get you one.
I would also like to point out that the Collection from the Christingle Service
goes to the Children’s Society, and would like to thank all of those involved
with that service at Frisby Parish Church on Christmas Eve.

THE LAST POST
Brian Robson has been a familiar face in Hoby and Ragdale for more than 20
years now. He has been delivering post to our two villages and outlying farms
since Ron Greenwood retired and the Village Shop closed. At a recent Parish
Council meeting it was agreed to make a gift to Brian and to arrange a
collection for him from the Hoby and Ragdale residents, and then make a
presentation to him in January after the Christmas rush and shortly after
Brian completes his last postal round on December 31st. The Parish Council
and all the villagers wish to say a big thank you to Brian for being the familiar
face of the Royal Mail for so long, and for his friendship. Everyone wishes you
a very happy and long retirement.

Hoby and District Local History Society Events – 2016
“Thrussington and Hoby:
A comparison of their changing use of land through the 18th
to 20th centuries”
by Celia Cotton
Hoby & District Village Hall,
Wednesday 20th January, 7.30pm
Celia will compare and contrast two Wreake valley villages, Hoby and
Thrussington, drawing upon a range of original records to consider the use of
land during the 18th to 20th centuries. She will also draw inferences from
the naming of fields, an interest developed during her MA studies.
Celia came to Leicester to study maths in 1975, married a fellow student and
then worked for the County Council as a teacher (briefly!) then in IT and
project management, taking early retirement in 2012. She has been an
enthusiastic family researcher for forty years and recently studied for an MA
in English Local History at Leicester. Currently she is enjoying looking at
whole settlements and the landscapes they inhabit and has enough projects
lined up to keep her busy for years to come.
All are welcome; the price for non-members is £2.00 (pay on door). For

Gifts presented to Rotherby young people
Mrs Debbie Machin, chair of the trustees, explains about the Catherine
Gregory Educational Foundation:
The Catherine Gregory Educational Foundation - Rotherby, is a registered
charity trust that was set up many years ago to help with education of the
children of Rotherby under the age of 25. Every year we give a bible to any
child born in the village or who comes to live in the village. At the age of 8 we
give a dictionary, at 10 an atlas, at 16 a £25 book voucher and this year we
have introduced at the age of 18 a £50 book voucher which will help young
adults carrying on with their education. This year Myles Cooter was given a
dictionary, Anna Veasey an atlas, £25 Book Vouchers were given to Millie
Spencer, Alex Horobin, Rosie Giles, Lydia Hemsley, Emily March and £50
vouchers to Bethany Lawrence, Harry Bysouth - Kemp and Ellen Machin.
For the last few years we have taken the children and parents on an
educational trip. We have been to The National History Museum, Kew
Gardens, Bletchley Park, The York Railway Museum and Chatsworth House.
This year we visited The National Memorial Arboretum to coincide with
National Armed Forces Day. The children saw marching bands and displays
from army dogs and the medical core. The many different memorials to all
the conflicts around the world were very interesting and the day ended with
a spitfire display.
FOSG Christmas Dinner Dance
Frisby Old School Group hosted their
annual Xmas dinner dance on
Saturday 12th December in Frisby
Village Hall. The hall was beautifully
decorated and tables and chairs
donated by BE Event Hire.
The evening was very well supported with 92 people sitting down to a 3 course
meal and then entertained with an auction for a Leicester Tigers package and
a child’s mud motorbike, both kindly donated by local villagers.
A raffle was also held and then everybody danced the night away. It is thought
to have raised around £2000 which will help to replace windows in the toilet
block of the Old School. The committee would like to say a big thank you to all
who helped make the evening an enjoyable and worthy one.

IN THE GARDEN with Vida (a new series of topical tips)
DECEMBER
It was time to make my door wreath so I went to the garden in search of
greenery, berries and anything else I thought would look good for the whole
of the Christmas period. Well, I needn’t have worried about quantity: still
looking good in my garden were Gazania, Sedum, Chrysanthemum, Geranium
(in the greenhouse), Primrose, Stokesia, Potentilla, Bergenia and more. It’s my
garden and I didn’t realise there was so much still in flower, which just goes to
prove how mild the weather was at the end of the 2015 season, most
unsuitable for my wreath so I went for the traditional holly, ivy and crab apple
with a smattering of berries.
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and got lots of rest so you are ready
for the start of the new season of gardening.

JANUARY
For those lucky enough to have a veg plot, it is still proving productive with
brassicas being the main seasonal vegetable. For those who do not have
enough room to grow vegetables outdoors, why not try cress, mustard,
radicchio and micro leaves on your window sills?
If you have an outdoor space and the ground is not frozen, take some time to
consider what you would like to plant and where. If there are a few weeds
popping their heads up, hoe them off or just give them a pull out. Both your
ground and your body will appreciate a small amount of work done in the
garden.
Greenhouses heated or not need to be checked for slugs and bugs hiding in
corners and under staging, anywhere really. They do like to make mischief
when you’re not looking – so keep looking. The more light you can get into
your greenhouse, the warmer it will be so keep the glass clean to allow the
light in.
For the rest of January, I’m not going to do anything except make sure I have
ordered my seeds, keep checking my stored apples and potatoes and dream
of the time when I can get back on to the land and start growing.
Enjoy your rest!
Vida Gregory is the Secretary of Hoby & District Horticultural Show

Find the Hidden Fish
There are 40 fish hidden in the following story. How many can you find? They
all appear in Chambers Dictionary. (Answers in the February Magazine)
“I got into my son’s car, turned the wheel and drove out of the garage, when
my car phone rang. My darling wife, Chris, had left her ring in her friend’s
Cadillac, across Melton, where she often chose to visit.
I assured her that all is well and I was able to fetch it. So, leaving the next
roundabout, I punched the postcode into my Satnav and found the correct
route.
Having driven over a yellow light, unaware of a nearby cop, I kept to the limit
with a keen eye on the speedo, switched off the supercharger and decided,
for fear of a speeding gun or camera, to go by the back way.
I drove round a central ring road, listening to a brilliant psalm on the radio,
and approached the top end of the drive. I didn’t know the number so I had to
ask a teenage ruffian in a hooded top, a housewife, some men working up
pylons and a woman taking a stroll, before I pulled up outside the house. I
parked by the kerb as swiftly as I dare, just as the friend of Chris produced the
ring.”

We have recently learned that the Revd Dr Peter Hooper will hold the joint post
of Area Dean of Framland and Rector of Ab Kettleby, Holwell and Asfordby.
Peter is well known in this area from the time he spent as Curate at St Mary’s,
Melton Mowbray from 2006-2010. Since then he has been team rector of the
Bradgate Team. From 2011 he has been Area Dean of Sparkenhoe East and also
Diocesan Rural Officer. Peter preached at the Brooksby Lambing Service last
March.
From January 1st Peter will be Acting Area Dean of Framland and we offer him a
warm welcome as he will effectively become our Priest-in-Charge until a team
rector is appointed.
At the time of writing we are about halfway through our Christmas Carol
Services. We had a memorable event at Brooksby this year with 45 members of
The Ratcliffe Chorale, under the baton of Anne de Graeve, providing a concert of
Christmas music and readings with congregational carols. Many thanks to the
choir, to Anne and to organist Ron Berry. Also many thanks to Brooksby Melton
College who again provided the very welcome mulled wine, sausage rolls and
mince pies in Brooksby Hall during the interval.
Rotherby Carol Service was also a memorable event and I am grateful to Sue
Smith for putting it together and all those who decorated the church, took part
in the service or provided the splendid refreshments. A highlight was the
presentation of awards, financed by the Catherine Gregory Trust, to young
people of the village. (See page 10)
This year the PCC agreed to raise money at the carol services for the
Bethlehem Arab Society for Rehabilitation (BASR) and the Al Shurooq School
for Blind Children in Bethlehem. BASR was founded in 1960 as one of
Leonard Cheshire’s homes. Nowadays, it is a non-profit, non-government
organization that is nationally recognized for the comprehensive medical and
rehabilitation services it renders to beneficiaries from different parts of
Palestine, particularly those with disabilities, regardless of their gender, age,
religion or social class.
So far over £300 has been raised and the final total will be published next
month.
