“ The Blues is Back in Town”… in true rock n roll style Wallingford Blues & BeerFestival will rise again from the ashes thanks to a partnership with f ellow music promoters Rugfest\, on Friday 21 st June 2019.

\n

The fes tival’s 26 year venue\, the old Regal Cinema\, was bursting at the seams a nd easily reached its maximum 500 capacity during the last three events\, but sadly closed in 2017. Maybe this was a sign to move to somewhere bigge r and better? Forcing the event to cancel at the last minute two years ago was a massive blow\, notwithstanding the considerable losses leaving no r eserves to invest in a new site.
\nSuch a shame after giving away ove r £40\,000 to local charities since its inception..! As the festival’s not oriety has grown over the years\, and created a huge impression nationally on the UK blues scene\, it’s no wonder that the call from both locals and countrywide blues fans to re-establish the festival has been heart-warmin g. This opportunity given by Rugfest to host the festival for one night on Friday 21 st June
\n2019\, at their Wallingford Sports Trust site\, could ensure the future of the event for another 26 years.

\n

‘Brothe rs in arms’\, ‘scrum down’\, ‘pitch perfect’ with an outstanding ‘line-out ’ headed by 1970’s chart toppers and British blues impresarios the Climax Blues Band. The evening event will host three bands with Hip Route finishi ng the stage set\, then music continues indoors with an open-mic and R&B s et to the early hours. The Papa George Band will open on stage at 7pm foll owed by headliners Climax Blues Band. Gates open 5pm until late with plent y of beer and fodder accompaniment and this year there is no 500 attendee limit on ticket sales!

\n

Wallingford Blues & Beer Festival could bui ld on this year to be a stand-alone event again and\, with a bit of 20-20 vision\, be restored next year to even more glory than its last six sell-o ut nights promised. This is a great chance to be part of a new and excitin g rebirth of a famous event.

Happily\, Posada returns to Dorchester this Advent. Posada is an old Mexican tradit ion retelling the story of Mary and Joseph as they travel from house to ho use asking for a room for the night. It starts out in the community and en ds on Christmas Eve at the church.

\n

Modern day Posada uses nativity figures of Mary and Joseph. Each Dorchester host enjoys the chance symbol ically to welcome the figures into their home with the real message of Chr istmas. Look out for the figures in Dorchester windows\, and join others a t the Abbey for Advent Sunday\; the Posada Party on 12 December (see poste r)\; or at the Crib Service on Christmas Eve\, when the figures will featu re.

Margot Metcalfe\, Gail Thomas and Denise Line will talk abou t their research project:

\n

‘Up the Street’: the history of pubs\, s hops and businesses in Dorchester

\n

We look at how local businesses have evolved\, especially since the 1850s\, using a variety of sources suc h as census data\, directories\, photographs\, family records and local kn owledge. Our special focus is on shops\, pubs and trades\, and the familie s engaged in them\, in some cases over several generations. We also draw o n oral history and local memories to show how things have changed\, especi ally in the last few decades.
\nWe hope that many residents will brin g their own memories and memorabilia\, so that we can take the project for ward. We are very grateful to those who have already shared their stories.

\n

Looking forward\, the speaker on April 24th will be Tony Hadland on ‘Covert Catholics of the Dorchester area’.

\n

Visitors and new mem bers are always very welcome to our talks and outings.

Marina will desc ribe the varied use of annuals\, as fillers when creating a new border\, a s drifts to create cohesion in a planting\, as specimens\, green manures\, pollinator caviar as well as bedding displays (only a passing mention on the latter!) and introducing unusual varieties for the discerning gardener . The talk will be illustrated with plant material and various sundries.\nAfter a couple of reincarnations from Firecrest Nursery and Green Fa rm Plants\, Marina finally emerged as Phoenix Perennial Plants in 2002. Ph oenix is sited in a cold\, wet frost pocket so plants have to be extremely hardy and tolerate winter wet. Phoenix earns medals vicariously by supply ing some of the top garden designers with unusual plants for the Chelsea F lower Show and has won ‘Best in Show’ several times! Marina became an auth or in 2006 with her book ‘Late Summer Flowers’.

After the Reformation\, a m inority of our ancestors – known as ‘popish recusants’ – refused to abando n Roman Catholicism\, despite it being made illegal in England. Some other s who were Catholic at heart conformed outwardly to the Church of England and were known as ‘church papists’. This talk reveals how recusants and ch urch papists ensured the secretive survival of Catholicism in Oxfordshire and Berkshire during the long period in which ‘the old faith’ was outlawed . It also incorporates a more detailed look at the recusants of Dorchester and district.

\n

Born 1949 in Reading\, Tony is a retired chartered building surveyor\, information scientist\, operational risk manager and m useum administrator\, who has also been a freelance broadcaster. Today he is a historian specialising in bicycle history\, Thames Valley recusancy a nd family history. He has lived most of his life in Berkshire and Oxfordsh ire and has been chairman of the Oxfordshire Local History Association for the past seven years. He was previously vice chairman and journal editor of the Oxfordshire Family History Society. He is currently working on a vo lume for the Oxfordshire Records Society and on another for the Veteran-Cy cle Club.
\nLooking forward\, the speaker on May 22nd will be Alex Da vies on ‘The archaeological dig at Great Western Park\, Didcot’

The housing development at Great Western Park allowed archaeologists to explore in detail a vast are a of landscape. This revealed significant discoveries from virtually every period\, allowing for the reconstruction of the various ways in which the inhabitants of Didcot have lived over the last 10\,000 years. The evidenc e is in many respects representative of changes that can be seen over much of southern Britain. This talk will introduce the prehistoric discoveries made at Great Western Park and discuss how they help us understand the li ves of our ancestors.

\n

A selection of artefacts found at Great West ern Park will also be on display.

\n

Alex Davies obtained his PhD in 2016 on Late Bronze Age and Iron Age settlement and society in the Thames Valley. He has since worked in post-excavation at Oxford Archaeology\, pri marily analysing and writing up prehistoric excavations and pottery. He is interested in all aspects of British and European prehistory\, and the us e of ethnography in the interpretation of prehistoric society.

Indeed\, up to 10% of all vascular plant s occur in the Mediterranean Basin\, which represents just 1.6% of the Ear th’s surface. This large area has a complex and varied geology and topogra phy but is united by its typically Mediterranean climate of hot\, dry summ ers and mild\, wet winters.
\nIn 2018 Chris also published Weird Plan ts which features weird\, wonky and wonderful plants seen on his travels a nd illustrated with his own oil paintings.

    The organisers of this quinte ssential local fundraising event are excited to welcome back the star of O xford based TV series “Endeavour”\, Shaun Evans\, who read so brilliantly last year. Shaun will be joined (performance commitments permitting) by Pa tricia Hodge (“A Very English Scandal”\, “Miranda”\, “Downton Abbey”)\; Sa lly Phillips (“Bridget Jones” and sequels\, “Miranda”\, “Smack the Pony”)\ ; Roger Allam (“Rutherford and Sons” National Theatre\, “Endeavour”). “the support\, over the years\, of so many notable celebrities is what gives t he evening that magical extra ingredient” (Sandra Devaney\, Committee Chai r).

    \n

    Raising a record £44\,000 towards the cost of Macmillan Cancer Support services in Oxfordshire last year shows the generosity of our aud ience and supporters says Belinda Hanson (in charge of sponsorship and adv ertising). The committee hope to once again raise a substantial sum for Ma cmillan and continue to be their largest single fund-raising event in the county. Funds are ring-fenced to support local Macmillan services for the people of Oxfordshire.

    \n

    The “Celebration of Christmas” concert is now in its 23rd year “often copied never bettered” (founder Petronella Sec combe) attracts people from around the country and abroad because of the m agical setting\, sublime music and the variety of readings by talented cel ebrity guests. During this light hearted but contemplative evening\, presi ded over by the Bishop\, guests will enjoy hearing the re-telling of the C hristmas story through a mixture of traditional music\, carols and mainly non-scriptural readings.

    \n

    Amidst the flickering candle light and de scending silence\, a chorister from Christ Church Cathedral choir will ope n with the spine-tingling notes to “Once in Royal David’s City” with wonde rful organ music provided by Cathedral organist Steven Grahl. Our choir\, The Oxford Bach Soloists (“a superlative group of singers” The Oxford Time s)\, conducted by multi-award winning Tom Hammond-Davies\, their Founder a nd Artistic Director\, will sing a mixture of favourite festive choral pie ces mixed with carefully chosen less well-known works. Loyal supporters an d newcomers alike will this year be treated to a new carol: Questions\, A Lullaby Carol with music by David Goode and words written by the local lib rettist Dr. Francis Warner\, Emeritus Fellow\, St. Peter’s College\, Unive rsity of Oxford one of the last pupils of C.S. Lewis. Magdalen College Sch ool Brass Ensemble will entertain guests as they arrive.

    \n

    Tessa Wat son\, Fundraising Manager for Macmillan Cancer Support says: “This event i s organised by an amazing group of committed volunteers who give up many h ours of their precious time to produce a magical event and raise substanti al funds for our work. We are so grateful to the committee\, the sponsors\ , the donors and the visitors for all their contributions which make this our most successful single fundraising event in Oxfordshire.”

    \n

    Tick ets are available from £25 and can be bought online at www.ticketsoxford.c om or in person from the Oxford Playhouse. “Anyone wanting to mingle with their favourite TV stars will be able to if they buy Gold seats which incl ude tickets to the VIP champagne (kindly donated by Barbara and Tony Laith waite) reception afterwards” said Phillipa Rooney (in charge of finding th e celebrity readers).
