From the editor -

Well, no-one has any excuse to say that “nothing ever happens” around Rudston this month! There seems to be masses of activity on all front, sports, competitions, teas, coffee mornings etc etc.. Many busy raising funds for the Golden Jubilee celebration. I haven’t yet received a final total for the recent fund raiser that the Wednesday Night Bikers raised for the Air Ambulance (helicopter), but I think it’s about £2,000. A tremendous effort. On the subject of the Wednesday Night Bikers, I’ve added a bikers page to the Rudston News web site, with details of the routes for each Wednesday ride outs. Most weeks a group set out from Boyes garage in Kilham and return for supper at the Bosville Arms, after riding about 100 miles, A grand way to explore the countryside! Litter complaint.. I was asked to mention that some people are dropping litter and plenty of it, at the bottle / paper banks on the Burton Fleming road. This is not just people dropping off their bottles etc.. But users of the sports facilities across the road. Hopefully the idea of siting a rubbish bin may be raised with the Parish Council and perhaps a sign asking people to be less messy! Just a reminder about interesting memories of the Queens’ Coronation and Silver Jubilee.. If you have anything on this subject, please let me have it in good time for the June newsletter. Colin

Stay Warm

The National Federation of Womens Institutes Newsletter recently brought to our attention an item of interest and benefit to people over the age of 60, which I felt should be brought to the attention of as many eligible people as possible. It is a scheme called StayWarm, which if you are 60 or over or if someone who is permanently resident in your home is age 60 or over, provides a unique way to heat and light your home for one fixed low price. StayWarm lets you use all the gas and electricity (for normal domestic use) that you need for one fixed payment – weekly fortnightly or monthly (cash/cheque at the post office or by Direct Debit) irrespective of how much energy you use – even in the coldest winter months. A StayWarm customer makes fixed payments based on the number of bedrooms and the number of occupants in the home. It is easy to budget as you know exactly how much it costs each week, there are no meter readings, you simply turn on your heating when you need it, payments don’t change and there are no bills at the end of each quarter. It is claimed that on average pensioners could save £150 on their annual heating bill. You do not need to have a gas supply to benefit. Those people who have electric storage heating may very well find they can make savings using this scheme. It is very easy to estimate if StayWarm would be beneficial to you. The chart shown below gives the current pricing structure, I have a few leaflets should anyone be interested and there is a freephone number to ring if you wish to discuss it with an advisor.

**** 0800 1 694 694 quoting ref.R1. ****** Why not save money now!! StayWarm do have a contact who is happy to speak to groups and answer any questions and give advice and it will be easy to get him to come to a gathering if there is sufficient interest. Hope this may be of help to someone. Barbara Moorfoot 420338.

VILLAGE HALL NEWS

Crosslands’ Column

First of all, news of action on speeding on the main road. Not quite what we thought might happen, but it’s a start. Road surface treatment and extra signs are to be installed. This is the sort of thing hoped for when the issue was reopened two or three years ago, so lets hope it has some effect. Meanwhile, Parish Council admin matters don’t get any easier. At the time of writing, four members are still to sign up to the Code of Conduct curse. The Parish Council will automatically be put under what they call the “Model Code of Conduct”, but any individual not signing will eventually cease to be a member. The deadline for this has been extended to 5th July, but the council itself only has until 5th May (before our next meeting). People are bound to notice that the Prime Minister himself obviously hasn’t to list “gifts over £25” or declare the financial interests of his aunts and uncles, as Parish Councilors are being expected to do. Now, we have discovered, the Parish Council has to appoint its own auditor for the yearly accounts. The Audit Commission will still require the results, and a fancy form to complete and charge us £50 for the privilege. This is half what we would expect to pay in total, so now we have to find a ‘cheap’ accountant – a contradiction in terms! I had been informed previously of a “lighter touch” approach to the annual audit, but didn’t realize they meant “lighter” for themselves and “heavier” for us! There is still to be opportunity to inspect the accounts, but in the meantime a copy of the usual “Receipts and Payments” page will be placed on the notice board after the next meeting. As mentioned last month, the meeting will be on 8th May. The open Parish Meeting will precede it at 7.15pm. It has just been discovered that one of the things that happens at this is that the Chairman highlights the year’s main happenings, so if anyone feels like attending…. Of course, in Rudston’s case, I like to think we do that already through this excellent newsletter. It is worth noting that a big village like Nafferton couldn’t keep a monthly one going. It has recently been resurrected, but only as a quarterly. Plans have been approved for the development of two detached houses at the corner of High Street and Long Street. The perimeter wall is to be retained, but at a lower height, on the Long Street frontage and the High Street side.

News from the Bosville Arms Country Hotel

Ian, who joined as head chef just a few weeks ago, would like to thank all for the kind response expressed to his new menu. It seems that all those who have enjoyed the fine cuisine he serves at The Bosville Arms Country Hotel restaurant appreciate his talent as an award-winning chef. The restaurant is now open for lunch on a daily basis between noon and 2 p.m. and each evening for dinner between 7 p.m. and 9.30 p.m.

Saturday 18th May is the date that Hull & East Riding Health Action Zone in conjunction with Humberside Police have organised a special first aid course for bikers at the Bosville. It’s a fact that bikers are statistically more likely to be first at the scene of a road accident, explained Louise Ramsey, Health Action Zone Development Manager. It therefore makes a lot of sense to train these riders in emergency first aid. The Tees, East & North Yorkshire Ambulance Service will provide the training. Certificates will be available for those on the four-hour course, the subsidised cost of £20 per person includes a coffee and sandwich lunch. To participate or for further information contact the Bosville on 01262-420259.

The BIG CHARITY bash of 2002 in aid of Spinal Muscular Atrophy

will take place on Wednesday evening 3rd July. It’s a BIG night, which raises a substantial amount of desperately needed money required in the fight against this terrible illness. And whilst it may cause a little inconvenience to one or two folk in the village. We are confident that no one would wish to deprive these poor sufferers of any chance to raise funds to help them. Further details will be published in next month's newsletter.

THE VICAR’S RAMBLINGS Who would have thought that Israel would be laying siege to the Church of the Nativity in Jerusalem? The site of Jesus’s birth should surely be one of the holiest places for Christians – yet we don’t seem to be shouting about that aspect of their civil war, do we? Perhaps a bit of Old Testament history might explain a bit. Probably the greatest moment in Israel’s ancient history was when they escaped from Egypt and were for the first time a nation; and God promised them the Promised Land at the end of their travels. Indeed, Israel did enter the Promised Land, and conquered much of it – but at no stage in their history did they ever own all of what they had been promised. Why? The answer given in the Bible is that again and again they forgot God and failed to do what he wanted of them. And finally, so the Bible says, God had had enough, and he allowed Israel to be completely overrun, and the people were exiled. Only when they were truly sorry were they allowed to return – and even then, they were not allowed to take control of their country any more, right up until the settlement at the end of World War II. But the Jewish faith has always had a strong pull to the land, and Zionism (the most extreme form of Judaism) has always believed that the Promised Land is still God’s gift to his chosen people, and they are entitled to take it, which partly explains why they behave as they do. However, although we have our holy sites, and although many people have had their faith strengthened by a visit to Israel, Christians don’t have such an attachment to places on this earth – because we believe our true country to be the heavenly country. And yes, in the past we had our crusades – but I can’t imagine we would ever want to do that again. We are not looking to occupy anywhere here; simply, we wait for the Kingdom of Heaven, opened for us by Jesus Christ. STEPHEN

The “Sourdeval Mystery”…. ANY IDEAS?

The following message came via e-mail, if anyone has any ideas, pleas get in touch with Mr Breeze. I’d be interested in any answers in terms of the newsletter, if you don’t mind letting me know. Ed

I'm Colin Breeze ( 34 Sewerby Park Close, Sewerby Village, Bridlington, East Yorks YO15 1EE, Tel : 01262 609762), The secretary of Sewerby Residents' Association, and I have been in contact with a gentleman from the area of Sourdeval in France, near Falaise, and we are trying to assist each other with certain details of ownership, or lordship following the Norman invasion. In the Domesday Book there is reference to Richard de surdeval owning Sewerby and Rudston ( as a sub tenant of the Duke of Mortain). However, to complicate matters, I have traced a Richard de Surdeval born in 1023, and having a daughter named Maud or Matilda, but I assume this is an English born Richard. I would point out that Sourdeval in France is next door to Mortain, and it would appear obvious for Norman neighbours to sublet to people they knew. Most of the other villages around the East Riding was sublet to a number of other families, and only Rudston and Sewerby seemed to be chosen as suitable areas for Surdeval to tenant. Possibly Rudston still had a Roman Villa as a hall or home, we are interested in what Sewerby had at that time and naturally why 2 villages, separated by approx 10 miles had something that would be unique enough to join together for one sub tenant lord. Possibly you have some information, our Sewerby residents association website has part of our history etc, if you wish to check. Looking forward to some useful contact. Yours, Colin Breeze

Nature News

By Tony Ezard

Spring has arrived with a bang and has brought several of our summer migrant birds. First to arrive, even before the end of March was the chiff-chaff with its monotonous call, followed by the first swallows on 8th April. A few days later willow warblers and blackcaps arrived together singing a much more melodious song. Recently arrived are house martins together with a few sand martins and on the 23 April the cuckoo was heard for the first time. Other noteworthy observations among the birds have been a sharp increase in the numbers of song thrushes, the continued presence of tree sparrows and a long tailed tits nest has been discovered in a small bush which has no leaves on making the nest very visible. Survey work on the water voles has established that they are present almost all along the Gypsey Race, from the village to Low Caythorpe , and where there is no suitable bank for them to burrow in, they have burrowed into the vegetation mass at the base of clumps of reeds and grass clumps. Badgers have been seen a couple of times in a local driveway and on the adjacent grass verge and hedgehogs have come out of hibernation to enjoy the warm weather, but a couple have inevitably ended up as road casualties. Insects have made their presence felt with bumblebees and queen wasps getting into houses, hoverflies and daddy long legs (crane flies) buzzing about and into everything. After noting the lack of butterflies in the last newsletter they have suddenly become commonplace but there has been no record of the comma butterfly or the holly blue. There have however been more records this spring of brimstone butterflies than in the past twenty years. The species is supposedly dependent on buckthorn, but with almost no plants of this species in the area it seems that the butterfly may have managed to adapt to using an alternative foodplant. In the near future an Atlas of the Butterflies of Yorkshire is due to be published and 2002 is the last year that records can be submitted for this book. I would ask everybody to record any butterfly they see this year and let me have the records as soon as possible so that I can pass them on to the co-ordinator.

Gardening News –

By Dick Robinson

Chrysanthemum growing used to be popular with nearly everyone who had a glasshouse, even a small six by four in the back yard. Public parks departments produced fantastic displays in the conservatories and always put on a big group display at the November Shows. Lots of firms raised and sold rooted cuttings and issued catalogues of the various groups of chrysanths, large exhibition varieties which I always knew as Japs. I don’t know why this name as the growers in Japan do not have these large football type blooms, only the incurves, reflex and singles and quilled varieties such as the old ragonatte, early varieties for outdoor culture. October kinds for bringing inside and the main November blooms with a few sorts for December. I always remember the yellow buttercup strains, the Dorothy Wilson and Pink Perfections, and the famous Favourites for Christmas, dozens of varieties we apprentices had to learn with the stopping dates etc. I was reminded of these halcyon days when a gardener brought me some leaves from his stock which had brown areas between some of the veins, these were as a result of an eelworm infestation, a microscopic pest that attacks a number of perennial flowering plants. Growers use hot water treatment of the stools to control eelworm, a method that has to be done very accurately or else the eelworms survive or the stools are killed. Home gardeners can reduce attacks by using clean cuttings to start and by putting a band of grease round the stems of the plants to act like a barrier as the eelworms ascend up to the leaves from the roots on the outside of the main stems. Clean compost and hygiene in general helps but leaf eelworm is not easy to control once in the stock. Apples Maggoty apples are useless and should not be allowed these days with modern control methods, even in our own gardens the old-fashioned way of spraying trees using horrible poisons such as lead Arsenate have long gone. We have much safer spray and pheromore traps to capture the culprits yet I still have gardeners who bring me samples each summer attacked by the Codlin Moth grub. So just how can this problem be controlled? Well, if a good sprayer is at hand, a cover with my favourite spray Fenitrothion, applied when all the petals have fallen, plus a second spray three weeks later, this should greatly reduce the trouble.

Pheromore traps are hung on the windward side of the trees, in early May usually in the East Riding, the west side being the prevailing wind direction. These plastic tent-like traps come with a special pellet to introduce the trap, this causes a spell that entices the male codlin moths. Once in the tent they become entangled on a sticky surface a bit like the old-fashioned fly papers Grandma used to hang in the kitchen!! These traps are available at most garden stores with full instructions. It’s interesting to recall that when we had orchards where chickens were allowed to run in, the codlin moth was a very rare pest indeed because the maggots fell to the ground to over winter in the soil, then the good old hens had a feed: shades of yesterday.. Another old trick is to wrap a piece of old material round the tree trunks in August and carefully remove to the bonfire in November when many of the grubs, thinking they were safe and sound until next year, can be incinerated. Aren’t I cruel!! This was a method used in the big commercial orchards when I first started my career, as well as spraying with lead arsenate, it’s a wonder we growers survived!!

Neighbourhood Watch

Just a reminder more than anything, a spring has arrived and we are back in our gardens. Garden tools are expensive, along with newly acquired plants, shrubs, trees and garden ornaments. They are all easily removed. Tools and equipment should be kept in a good, well secured store or shed. They are easy targets and easily disposed of at this time of year. Don’t make it easy for the thief! P.B. Smith

Editors comment - Shed and garage alarms are quite cheap, from places like Argos or B&Q, costing about £10 to £15, they have their own 9V battery and are VERY LOUD! They usually have a magnetic sensor to attach to the door and a wire to put through the handle of a mower etc. Also, if you have expensive tools, why not mark them up with a permanent marker pen and/or one of the invisible UV markers?
