Parish Council News The new Parish Council has now embarked on its 4 year term of office. A full list of councillors is given below, they are your representatives and will be pleased to assist you and try to resolve any problems that you may have. If you have any ideas for the enhancement of the village and its facilities why not tell your local councillor. The Parish Council have carried out many such schemes over the years.
Nettleham is a particularly lovely place in springtime and given care and
continued attention remains so throughout the year. We have entered the Best
Kept Village cumpetition again this
year and would like to win the prize for a 3rd time. Judging takes place in
June, July and August and it requires a
positive effort by everyone for us to
win. The Parish Council will certainly
do its best.
We have noted the considerable efforts made by Mrs Booth, the Junior School PTA and others to ensure that the school swimming pool continues in use. Generous donations were also made by �ATWEST BANK and BP OIL. The Parish Council have assisted this pool several times over the years and have continued that tradition with a donation to the recent refurbishment. One wonders how many children and others have learnt to swim in this pool since its creation, certainly 100's probably 1000's.
The Sports and Community Association has been given the 'go ahead' for the proposed pavilion extension, subject to
participation by the CommuQity Enter
prise Agency being approved by the Manpower Services' Commission. The funding

Operation Raleigh
Repairing a water-logged track, extending a footbridge, painting a hospital, cleaning a local swimming pool and fighting a bush fire. These were some of the projects uncertaken by Phase 48
of Operation Raleigh in Chile.
Twenty three year old Andrew Robshaw of Parkside, Nettleham, was a member of the party that arrived at Raleigh Headquarters in London on January 1st 1986. Their mission - to embark dn the adventure of a lifetime whilst undertaking a series of useful community projects that would enhance the lives of local people. The flight which began in the night drizzle of London and ended in the torrid afternoon heat of Santiago spanned such places as Lisbon, Rio and San Paulo. Previously just names on a map.
The bus journey from the airport into Santiago is described by Andrew as being like "a determined ant trying to be Lhe first to reach the rest". Overnight accommodation was a gymnasium floor where one hundred and sixty three venturers from all over the world began a dialogue that lasted for three months.
A memorable train journey to Puerto Montt began the following day. Memorable because it involved four hundred heavily laden adults and children as well as dogs and chickens. It also lasted for thirty hours. A nights rest was followed by a three hour bus journey and three days living on the deck of a ferry. This is about as close as you can get to your fellow man and making friends was easy and quick. Eventually a very weary and exhausted party arrived at Raleigh Headquarters in Chile. Sleep came quickly.
During the next few days the party were consigned projects and taken to the various sites. Andrew travelled to Chile Chico on an overcrowded ferryboat, the "dimension of a fish can". Chile Chico lies on the edge of the secord largest lake in South America "Lago General Carrera" and is still a frontier
town. It resembled the set of a Hollywood western, with cowboys, dusty streets and the feeling that gunmen would emerge from the shadows at any moment.
Animals are an important part of local life and half the party stayed to repair the corral as part of the town's 58th anniversary. For the sale and display of livestock, it was important for the enclosure to be safe.
The work was done by the venturers because the locals insisted that "someone else do it". By the end of the second week, the party had moved on to Lago Jeinimeni, the most beautiful place imaginable, and 70 km south of Chile Chico. Arrival at Jeinimeni was made packed into an open truck making a final river-crossing.
In the middle of the river a lorry laden with logs had broken down, it was a ready made situation for the party. A human chain was formed, first the logs and then the lorry were floated to the bank. The hospitable locals were most insistent that celebrations were made with large quantities of wine.
The party then assisted with the building of a hut where it had taken local workmen THREE YEARS to lay the floor. A deliberate GO SLOW policy existed in order to prol.ong the source of income (sounds familiar). Other problems emerged, the only vehicle track had become impassable following wet weather and the footbridge across freezing waters was not wide enough to avoid getting wet. With nothing more than a spade and wheelbarrow, drainage channels were made across the waterlogged parts of the track. The large holes were filled in with stones collected from 500m away. The footbridge was extended by building a water deflector dam thus enabling the supporting wood piles to be driven into place.
By the time the party left Jeinimeni both projects were completed, enabling workers to have dry feet and regular supplies. It was during the stay at Jeinimeni that the FOXES GLACIER was born, this being the name the party gave to a previously unknown glacier.
Preparation for the town's 58th anniversary then began. The hospital, gymnasium and plaza were cleaned and painted. An imaginary band was formed and Glen Miller's "In the fl1ood" caused quite a sensation.
Now came the journey back to Chile
Chico and riding a horse bare back for
the first time was quite an experience.
Saddles borrowed from the Chilean Army
improved things and prevented the eyes
from watering when riding down hill.
Arrival back at Chile Chico was like a
scene from the "Magnificent Seven" as
the party walked all abreast down the
dusty street with hats pushed down over
the eyes. Andrew became one of three
volunteers who acted as guides, pack
horses and technical assistants during a three day trip to Foxes Glacier.
They were taken up to Largo Jeinimeni
and deposited at the head of the lake
with all the equipment. Some initial
testing was done before setting off on
the return journey to Chile Chico on a
pick-up truck piled with logs.
With the work on the hospital finished
the party became translntors of museum
piece description and museum guides.
This proved difficult as no one in the
party spoke Spanish. The work being
finally approved only one hour before
commencing the journey home.
It was during this last week that the party were called upon to do some fire
fighting by joining the locals in a battle against a fierce bush fire.
Andrew found Chile a country of ex
tremes, the affluent cosmopolitan and
the poverty stricken, the glaciers and
the desert, the airlines and the
horses. Nevertheless, a beautiful
country of warm and generous people.
The work was always a puzzle but working as a team and finding out about
each other u1as enjoyed by all.
It was indeed a never to be forgotten
experience.

In Your Garden Flowers
JUNE
Bedding plants: Complete bedding out,
water until established.
Annuals: Thin out varieties sown in situ.
Biennials: Canterbury bells, sweet
williams, wallflowers etc. which were
sown last month, transplant into a nursery bed. Sowings can still be
made, together with pansies for early
flowering next year.
Alpines: Propagate by inserting cutt
ings in a peat/sand mixture and placing
in a shaded cold frame. Arabis, aubretia, dianthus phlox and saxifrage
are all suitable varieties. Continue
dead heading and cut back of estab
lished plants.
Bulbs: Remove dead flowering heads of
spring flowering bulbs and allow
foliage to die down naturally - apply
a dressing of a general fertiliser.
If lifted heel in and allow foliage to
die down naturally.
Propagation by division: Irises, poly
anthus and pyrethrums can be propagated
by division after flowering.
General: Ensure the staking of tall
growing plants, dahlias, delphiniums,
sweetpeas, hollyhocks etc. is adequate.
A mulch of peat or grass mowings will
be beneficial to these plants providing the soil is moist when applied. Remove
dead blooms, weed and hoe as necessary.
JULY
Biennials: Sow seeds of forget-me-not and brompton stocks in a cold frame or greenhouse.
Pinks and border carnations: Propagate
by layering or taking cuttings from non
flowering stems.
Dahlias: Disbud as necessary, attend
to tying end staking, watch out for and
dispose of earwigs, feed and water.
Perennials: Dead head, check supports,
weed, hoe, apply a light dressing of a general fertiliser, water in by giving
a good soaking.
AUGUST
Annuals: Hardy varieties; .calendula, candytuft, larkspur, love-in-the-mist etc. sow now to over winter out of doors.
Perennials ( including dahlias ) : Dead head, disbud and attend to supports. Spray with benomyl or Tumblite if mildew appears. Seeds of delphiniums and lupins can be sown, also primula (polyanthus ) but they will need some protection during the winter.
Autumn crocus: Plant bulbs about 2
inches deep around the bases of trees.
Wallflowers: Pinch out the lead shoot ( stop ) to assure bushy plants.
Chrysanthemums: Disbud as necessary, feed with a high potash liquid fertiliser ( Chempak or Tomato ) , protect show blooms.
Rock garden: Dead head and keep tidy. Take cuttings of aubretia, hypericums, phloxes, rooting in a sandy compost in a shaded frame.
Greenhouse
Winter flowering shrubs: Camellias,
azaleas, Christmas cacti can be plunged
out of doors in a sheltered position.
Perpetual carnations: Can also be
moved outside if greenhouse space is
required but must be staked and
supported securely. Remove side shoots
from the flowering stems. Pot last
winter's cuttings into their final pots
(6 inch ) using John Innes No.3, with
mortar rubble mixed in if obtainable.
Attend to stopping and staking as required. These plants can also be stood outside on a gravel bed.
Grapes: Stop laterals two leaves
beyond the newly formed branches and
remove side shoots as they form. Thin the berries in each bunch as they start
to swell. Feed regularly with a high
potash liquid manure, dried blood is
ideal.
Cucumbers: Pinch out growing tip at
required height, pinch out tips of 2
feet long side shoots and fruiting side shoots at the second leaf. Pick off male flowers if all female vari
eties are not being grown. Shade from
strong sun and syringe frequently to
deter red spider.
Tomatoes: Tie in and support, pinch out side shoots and assist setting by vibrating plants and lightly spraying
with water around mid-day. When first
fruits have set commence weekly feeding
with a high potash liquid fertiliser. During hot sunny spells ensure that plants do not dry out, be particularly
vigilant with Growbags. With ring culture keep the bed upon which the
"rings" are standing well watered.
Peaches: Thin fruits to final spacings of about 8 inches, pinch out tips of side shoots bearing in mind that this
season's growth will produce next years fruits.
Chrysanthemums: Pot into final pots, 8
or 9 inch, using John Innes No.3, ramm
ing the soil firmly around the plants. Stand outside in a sunny position, staking and tying securely.
Primulas: Seeds of obconica and mela
coides can be sown, also cineraria and
cyclamen.
General: Ventilate freely on hot days, shade where necessary. Water freely
and damp down frequently but avoid splashing too much water around over
night. Keep a look out for aphids, white fly and other pests, spray with
an insecticide such as Tumblebug
immediately.
JULY
Grapes: Continue thinning of bunches and feeding.
Tomatoes: Continue feeding and removal
of side shoots.
Peaches: Tie in the young growths required for next year's fruiting to
allow as much sunlight as passible to
the ripening fruit.
Chrysanthemums: Stop late flowering varieties as required. Watch out for leaf miner and crush the occasional one
but remove badly infected leaves
entirely.
Fuchsias: Commence taking cuttings of young non-flowering shoots, rooting
them in a peat/sand or peat/perlite mix or in a general purpose compost such as Cal-Val Universal . Place the cuttings
in a shaded propagator.
Pelargoniums: Take cuttings of the
Regal varieties using a similar compost as for fuchsias, but a close atmosphere
is not required and a shady position in a cold greenhouse or frame will suffice.
After flowering prune hack established
plants and rest by placing in a sunny position outside and reducing water.
General: Continue to pay attention to
ventilation and damping down. Keep
control of insect pests by spraying as soon as first signs appear.
AUGUST
Tomatoes: Stop two leaves above the highest truss and remove any yellowing
or decaying leaves at the base.
Cyclamen: Clean and top dress old flowering corms which have been rest
ing, water and place in a cold frame shaded from strong sunlight. Pot on seedlings ensuring the young corms are
above the surface of the soil. Other seedlings sown in previous months
should also be potted or pricked out.
Fuchsias, Pelargoniums ( Regal and Zonal ) : Continue to take cuttings.
Annuals: Sow seeds of clarkia, schizanthus, cinerarias and stocks for spring flowering.
General: Continue the general routine, but avoid too much water in late after
noon and evening and do not forget about pot plants standing outside.

Sow - french and runner beans, beetroot, carrots, lettuce, marrows, peas, swedes and turnips
Plant out - sprouts, broccoli, cabbages, cauli's, celery, marrows, tomatoes and leeks
Keep down weeds. Look out for bird damage. Two strands of cotton each side of beetroot and peas will help to keep sparrows off. Take action on
pests - greenfly, carrot and cabbage root fly. Earth up and feed potatoes.
Sow - last month's list plus spring onions, parsley and winter spinach
Plant out "greens" - look out for root fly grubs before planting, if infected - burn them, as they will never make a good plant. Feed and water marrows, cucumbers and tomatoes. Blight will soon be around so take action and spray as a precaution
Harvest crops as they mature, don't let them go to seed, it's a waste of your time and ground
AUGUST
Sow - spring cabbage, Japanese onions, parsley and winter salads. Plus - for cloching later - beetroot, carrots and winter lettuce
Plant out - continue with greens -cauli's, kales etc. Keep that hoe going - weeds = profit loss. Stop outdoor tomatoes at 4th to 5th truss. Lift onions and dry off well before storing
Trees & Shrubs
Keep plants watered during dry spells and keep weeds under control whilst they are easily destroyed and before they flower and seed.
Continue to spray roses and other shrubs. May I suggest a Systemic Fungicide and Systemic Insecticide. Fungicide is a multi-purpose spray to control or prevent mildew, blackspot and many other diseases.
Insecticide watered/sprayed on leaves kills by contact and systemic action with immediate and prolonged effect. Controls greenfly, blackfly, whitefly, red spider, mealy bug, scale insects, leaf hoppers, capsid bug and woolley aphids.
Other useful sprays: Tumbleblite, Sybol 2, Malathion liquid, ICI Rapid, Benelate and Nimrod T. etc.
If you wish you can mix an insecticide i.e. Sybol 2 with a fungicide i.e.

3enelate to control aphids and blnckspot etc. with one spray. I f you add 2
or 3 drops of washing up liquid with
your spray this helps the spray to
stick on the leaves.
Please note on all sprays the manu
facturer's instructions.
Prune back early flowering shrubs that
have finished flowering for shape and
to maintain a good tree or bush for
next year.
JULY
Again make sure that newly planted
trees and shrubs, and especially
climbers, are kept well watered during
dry spells.
This is particularly important with
container grown plants as the root
balls can dry out very quickly in hot
weather.
Keep your eye on your roses for mildew,
blackspot and rust. Continue to spray
as per June.
Remove suckers from roses, lilacs,
rhododendrons and other grafted shrubs
by following them back to their point
of origin and tearing them off.
Encourage roses to produce a good sec
ond flush of flowers by feeding with a
good rose fertiliser and watering in if
the weather is dry.
Thin out spring flowering clematis if
they are getting out of hand. Remove as much of the growth that has carried
flowers as possible, leaving as much
new growth as you need.
AUGUST
Continue to look after your roses.
Dead head all types as soon as the
flowers fade to keep the flowers com
ing, but don't put on any more fertil
iser. I t will only tend to encourage
soft growth which is easily damaged by
early autumn frosts. Continue spraying
against pests and diseases.
Propagate shrubs from semi-ripe cutt
ings, from the growth which is green, but just starting to turn woody. Make
a cut just below a leaf joint and
remove the very soft tip so you are
left with a cutting of 311 to 411 long.
Dip the base in hormone rooting powder
and insert to half their length in a
pot of well draining compost. Root
them in a cold frame.
Summer prune wisteria by cutting back
new growth to three buds.
Trim conifer hedges if they need it,
bearing in mind that you should not
require anymore trimming after this
month. The same for beech and holly.
Trim lavender to keep it neat and
shapely, you may use the prunings as
cuttings.
Nettleham Youth Club Dear Sir,
I would like to be included in your
Parish Magazine, an item of Nettleham
Youth Club news.
2 years ago when Tom Wilson and myself
took over as leader and deputy leader
the membership was just 30, and the
attendance was 14 boys and 4 girls.
I n the 2 years the figures have gone
up and up. Last November Tom left
through a personal problem, and I was
made leader and I had a new deputy
leader who is called Phil Robinson.
We at the club try to vary the activ
ities. One of the activities we do is
pool which includes a girls team.
Weight training is just starting for
boys and girls. Once a month we have
a video night. We do visits to other
clubs in the area just for social
meetings and sometimes for ga�es.
While most things seem to favour the
boys we have an average attendance of girls of 21. Now the advert!
We could do with a volunteer to help
with the girls side of the club. My
mate says blonde 19- 25 would do nicely!
Myself anyone with an interest in help
ing to run the club would be welcome.
I f there is anyone interested please
contact Bob Turner, Leader, on Monday
or Thursday nights when we meet at the
Day Centre, Nettleham, or phone Bob on
Lincoln 32528 for a meeting.
The Naturalist To most of us, the mere sight of a bat
is usually enough to set the hair at
the back of the neck tingling.
Following a mainly nocturnal lifestyle,
these creatures remain largely shrouded
in mystery and the subject of much
folklore and legend. They have long
been closely associated with witchcraft
and the supernatural, and yet these
small, harmless mammals do a great ser
vice to man in consuming large quanti
ties of insects in the course of their
nocturnal flights.
Eight species of bat are to be found in
Britain, the greater and lesser horse
shoe bats, the Oaubenton's or water
bat, the Natterer's bat, the whiskered
hat, the long-eared bat, the noctule
bat and the pipistrelle bat. The noc
tule is the largest, with a wingspan of
up to sixteen inches and the small�st
1s the pipistrelle, which weighs only
half an ounce and is widespread in its
distribution, often being seen in town parks and gardens as well as in the
countryside.
In Britain, bats hibernate for the
winter in sheltered places such as
hollow trees, caves, barns and lofts,
emerging in spring as the days get
warmer, to begin searching for food. Bats normally hunt during the hours of
dawn and dusk, and I regularly see them
flying up and down the garden in search
of their prey. I watched a pair of
what I believe to be pipistrel�e bats
the other evening, admiring their
agility and skill as they performed
complicated twists and turns in their
rapid, silent flight.
Their aerobatics are even more amazing
when you consider that their eyesight
is relatively poor, and they rely on a
sophisticated system of echo-location
in which the bat projects a continuous
pulse of high frequency sounds, mostly
inaudible to the human ear, which are
reflected back from objects in the
flight path and detected by the bat.
This system is remarkably sensitive and
is used not only to avoid collision and
possible injury, but also in locating
very small objects, including flying
insects which comprise the bats' diet,
and which they consume on the wing in large quantities.
The anatomy of a bat exhibits the
unique adaptation which· this mammal has
undergone to enable it to fly, the win�
membrane being supported by a number of
long delicate bones, which are, in
fact, greatly extended fingers, these
in turn being connected to the ankle
and tail bones, resulting in a large
wing area in proportion to the body.
THE WING OF A BAT
As daylight approaches, bats return to
their resting place, to hang upside
down from a suitable projection, and
after a period of grooming, they pro
ceed to sleep· until evening, when they
set forth once again in search of food.
It is unfortunate that their misplaced
as�ociation with darkness, witchcraft
and death has resulted in irrational
fear and persecution, and these harm
less and fascinating little creatures
carry the heavy burden of being the
symbol of evil, which is still perpet
uated today in books and films.
So, the next time you see a bat, try
not to let fear get the better of you.
HUNTING IN THE DARK
Reflected echoes ____ _. from moth
Russian Convoys I was meandering round the Library
shelves, looking for a book for some
leisure reading, when my eye caught
sight of one "Arctic Convoys11 by a Rear
Admiral I think. Suddenly all those
thoughts and feelings of more tnan 40
years ago came flooding back. Long
forgotten, but now all back again.
Russian Convoys was the real name by
which they were known to those old enough to remember them. Huge gatherings of merchant ships collected to
gether and sailing under the escort of numerous warships across the arctic seas to Murmansk in Russia. Very large
numbers of tanks, aircraft and many
other forms of aid were delivered to
keep open the fighting line between
Germanv and Russia.
LossAs of ships were colossal due to
air-attacks and U boat activity. They wer� eerie journeys through the often
frozen waters - many degrees below zero
was the norm, and yet you could walk about ln singlet and shorts and not
feel the cold, because of the complete
lack of dampness in the air, and yet if
you touched any bare steel on the upper deck your skin stuck to the steel. One
lad lost most of his cheek in a fall
coming off watch. Down below your ears
were constantly picking up the rattle of icebergs hitting the side of the
ship and gliding by - or so you hoped.
My first convoy sailedon the 27 June 1943 from Hvalfiord in Iceland - 35
merchant ships with an escort of 6
destroyers, 3 corvettes, 2 anti-aircraft ships and 2 submarines. 3 rescue
ships, 2 tankers, 8 submarines and 5
Russian submarines joined the convoy en route. Covering forces, which usually
kept about 100 miles from the convoy, included the battleship Duke of York,
the American battleship Tuscaloosa, aircraft carrier Victorious and
cruisers London, Norfolk and Cumberland
- my ship. With us there was a further 14 destroyers. The pack ice had re
ceded enough to allow the convoy and
covering force to go above Bear Island and near to Spitzbergen, the latter
being occupied by both German and Allied Forces, each on their own side
of the territory. German intelligence
found the convoy on July 1st and 8
U Boats ( German submarines ) blocked the line of the convoy. German air reconnaisance put in an air torpedo attack on
2nd July and one plane was shot down by
a destroyer. Thick fog developed on
the 3rd July. German battleship Tir
pitz and cruisers moved to north Norway on July 2nd and were expected to attack
the convoy on the 5th July. Two air
attacks followed and some convoy ships
were lost. In a desperate gamble the
convoy ships were ordered to scatter -anywhere to get out of contact with the German forces - the only time it ever
happened. Many ships were lost and few got through to Murmansk. The wisdom of
the scatter order has been debated many
times since those days and little credit attached to the senior officers making the decision.
Convoy JW51B sailed from Loch Ewe in
Scotland on 22nd December 1943, with 6
destroyers and 2 corvettes. The
battleship Anson and cruiser Cumberland gave distant cover. German battleship Lutzow and cruiser Hipper with destroyers left Norway on the 30th December. There was only about six hours of twi
light during the 24 hr cycle as always occured at this time of the year. The
German ships were within 30 miles of the convoy on 31st December but all
ships were covered in snow and ice -
16° of frost! Fire was opened at 0930
and lasted for about 30 minutes and
destroyer Onslow was badly hit. Covering forces converged on convoy but Hipper sank a destroyer and damaged
another. Covering forces opened fire on Hipper at 1130 and scored three
hits. German destroyer sank and German ships called off the action and
returned to Norway. The convoy and
covering forces went into Kola Inlet for �1urmansk.
We went ashore in Kola Bay amid much
curiosity by the Russian forces - and
by us! There was little to see or do as it was only an outpost but we did attend a cinema show. During the per
formance there was a news reel purport
ing to show a Russian convoy under way.
The bay was full of British and American warships and yet the commentary on the film went on to say that now that
the convoy got into dangerous waters, Russian warships took over the guarding duties!! Talk about propaganda - it was rife even under such circumstances.
A further convoy was undertaken in February 1944, with the Belfast, Sheffield
and Cumberland ( all cruisers ) as part of the covering forces. In a fierce
storm the Sheffield lost the top of a
(;un turret - and the steel was 211 thick Cls well! Ice forced the convoy near
the German air bases in Norway and air
attacks followed including after arrival in Murmansk.
The Cumberland was a cruiser built in the early 1920's of some 10,000 tons and carried 8-8" guns as their main armament. Much of my time abroad was spent in arctic waters, especially on patrol between Iceland and Greenland to prevent German ships getting out into the Atlantic Ocean. She was the first ship in the Royal Navy to be fitted with any form of radar. This early set was so new that the operator could not tell the difference between another ship, a fleet of seagulls or a nearby headland! We operated from Hvalfiord in Iceland - a base developed for Royal Navy ships during the war. The only time we left Iceland was to go down to the North African coast for the landings by Allied forces on this coast. Our leaving was so hurried we had no tropical clothing on board - only the stuff suitable for arctic waters!
I left Cumberland to go into hospital for treatment of a hernia. She ran into a headland under the water in Hvalfiord whilst operating the earlier mentioned radar set, and had to limp down to Newcastle for repair.
I'll let the memories rest again.

Advanced Motorists BE SAFE - NOT SORRY WITH
BETTER DRIV��I�N�G ____ _
"Skill with responsibility" is the motto of the Institute of Advanced Motorists. Formed in 1956 with the prime aim of improving road safety. All over the country, the Institute's examiners, part-time and full-time, male and female, conduct advanced tests.
Many are ex-Police Class 1 drivers. Anyone who has passed the basic M.O.T. test can apply to take the advanced version and tests can be taken in a variety of vehicles - cars, motorcycles, commercial vehicles, H.G.V's and caravan towing. Some pass, some fail.
The expertise of those who have passed the test is extremely valuable and local groups have a useful part to play.
Jenny Ellis of Nettleham is the Secretary of the Lincoln Branch, formed in 1973 and with a present �embership of 208. Those who have already passed the advanced test are full members whilst those undertaking instruction prior to the test are associate members. The instruction is given free by volunteers who have already passed the test and whose driving meets the standards required by the Institute.
Not everyone will reach the required standard after instruction and not everyone will wish to take the test although this is encouraged. Observers are always truthful even if driving standards improve only slightly as this makes the effort worthwhile.
"What's in it for me" is a question often asked by people. Ultimately it is the personal satisfaction of being able to provide a standard of driving that ensures safe journeys for relatives, friends .and one's self. Additionally some insurance companies will offer lower premiums for those passing the advanced test. Driving to higher standards also helps to reduce accidents many of which are caused by human error.
The desire to improve must come from each individual although most drivers already think they are good enough. If, however, more courtesy, patience, concentration and consideration can be guaranteed by the Institute then perhaps the streets of Lincoln and surrounding areas will be much safer.
The Lincoln Group also has a social side to it. Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month at the Wild Life on the Birchwood estate, commencing at 8 pm. Guest speakers discuss a wide range of motoring and non-motoring subjects. Admission is free and the motto is "Get a friend to join - you may save a life11• Yearly subscriptions are £3 for individuals and £5 for a couple.

Anything that improves safety on the roads for both motorists and pedestrians has got to be a good idea -think about it.
K. Weatherston.
A Lady Tri-Athlete Running marathons is not everyone's
idea of fun but there is little doubt
it has become one of the most popular and fastest growing sports we have.
For Rosana Alexander ( nee Redden ) formerly of Parkside, Nettleham, it has
almost become a way of life. A former
Physical Education Teacher at Harmston
Hall Hospital Rosana now works as a Diving Instructor at the Yarborough Leisure Centre. She also finds time to
teach P.E. and Trampalining to young
sters in the 2 - 5 age group.
Rose, a member of the Lincoln Wellington Club has been running for about three years and has already completed one full and four half-marathons.
She recently completed the Lincoln half marathon in 1hr 40mins and also the Grantham race in which three ladies
from the Wellington Club were 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the ladies section with Rose
in second place. Both these achievements were capped however by her appearance in the London marathon where
she clocked a time of four hours. Rose had wanted to have a go at the London
race for some time and out of 90,000
applicants was one of 20,000 who were accepted. On Sunday, the 20th April,
after spending two hours in a tent because of heavy ra}n, the race finally started with Rose running the first few
miles with a dustbin bag over her head.
She was well up with the leaders for twenty three miles but then got a bad stitch and had to rest for a while at
walking pace.
Encouragement from spectators constantly calling for No.447 finally got her going to complete the course, and she
showed me the medal to prove it.
Acceptance for the London marathon is
the luck of the draw, unless you can do
the distance in a time of 3hrs 10mins in which case selection is automatic.
Rose told me that the most exhilarating
part of the whole exercise was probably
at the end, "my heart was pounding furiously but it was a marvellous feel
ing and I felt wonderful" she said.
What is not generally known is that Rose is the only lady tri-athlete in
Lincoln. For the uninitiated the triathalon is a gruelling event comprising
a half mile swim, a twenty mile cycle
ride and a ten mile run, continuously.
Definitely not for anyone except those who are used to long distance running and hard physical exercise ..
For Rosana Alexander however it's
pleasure, fun, exhilarating and it keeps her fit. Running marathons is special requiring guts and courage.
Me, I'll stick to those with the peanuts.
