Letters to the Editor ( �)J�. EJJI'rORIAL)
Being relative newcomers to the Lincolnshire area, my wife and I were delighted to find a village as beautiful as Nettleham in vThich to live. It is, therefore, surprising to find the peaceful village atmosphere being shattered by the amount of heavy lorries passing through at all times of the day and night.
As I understand it, some 90% of these vehicles use Nettleham purely as a by-pass and have no actual business in the village at all. Furthermore the areas of \�ashdyke Lane, High Street, Nill Hill and Sudbrooke Lane were never built to carry this type of traffic so consistently, and certainly not at the speeds of some of the vehicle s.
I have heard talk of a ring road being built to take most of this excess traffic and as the amount of vehicles will probably increase in future then this must be an excellant idea. In view of the fact that on more than one occasion I have seen lorries having to mount the kerb in order to squeeze past another, I hope that an accident is not necessary before action is taken.
Yours sincerely. J.K. Haworth, 10, High Street, Nettleham.

Lincolnshire Integrated Voluntary Emergency Service
Anyone who lives and vTorks in the County of Lincolnshire could some day need the invaluable se!.:'vice provided by the doctors who together forP'l L.I.V.l!.:.S.
L.I.V.E.S. is a voluntary association of Genernl Practitioners formulated to :provide immediate medical assistance at the scene of any accident - on the road, in the home, in industry or agriculture. L.I.V.E.S. works in close liason with Lincolnshire and South Humberside Ambulance, Police, Fire and Hospital Services but there is one vital difference - L.I.V.E.S. is totally dependent for its existence on public support.
1
L.I.V.E.S. \'fas pioneered by one of Nettlehams'own doctors, the late Dr. Nichael Cooper together with Dr. Richard Harper-Smith. Following the lead of a group of doctors in the North Hiding of Yorkshire, who already had an immediate after care scheme, Dr. Cooper and Dr. Har:per-Srnith launched L.I.V • .r�.s. in 1971. A tremendous amount of time and effort was given by these nro doctors and their colleagues and between 1971 and 1978 some £30,000 was raised from voluntary sources. In 1978 an Appeal wa.s launched for a further £150,000 to be raised over the next seven years to provide complete radio cover for the whole of Lincolnshire and South Humberside.
L.I.V.E.S. is now geographically the largest immediate after care scheme of its kind in the whole country, having approximately 100 doctors. It also has the most sophisticated radio communication system.
Why do \ve need L.I.V.B.S.? - l\'iany avoidable deaths occu:r between the scene of the accident and the hospital, immediate medical attention saves life, alleviates pain and reduces shock. vle should also realize that within our county it is possible to be 25 -30 miles away from a hospital and therefore can be some time before an ambulance can get to the scene of an accident.
Y� L.I.V.E.S. doctors also use their radios for their everyday Practice work, proving invaluable for communications when out of surgery.
:Nost requests for a L .I.V.l!.:.S. doctor come through dialing the normal emergency 999 Ambulance Service or by a witness of an accident calling their local L.I.V.E.S. doctor.
L.I.V.E.S. Radio Control .Room is no"' based at Lincoln County Hospital in the Accident and Emergency Department and is staffed by L.I.V.E.S. employees. These radio operators are the only paid members of L.I.V.E.S.
\fuat can I do to help? - It costs L.I.V.E.S. approximately £30,000 p.a. to give this Ser:\/ice to the people of this county. It costs approximately £1,500 to equip each member of L.I.V.E.S. with a. fixed car radio, radio pager and their vitnl first aid and resuscitation equipment. The radio communication system is the main source of expenditure - radio transmitters, G.P.O. landline rentals to these transmitters, together with maintenance and updating of these items.
'rhis is \orhere we would ask your help. 'l'he doctors in the scheme and other members of L.I.V.E.S. give their time and
expertise completely free. We would ask you for your financial su�1port whenever possible. 1'he people of this county and, indeed, the people of this village, have been very generous to L .I.V.E.S. in fund raising and personal donations. We would ask you for your continued financial support.
L.I.V.�.s. also require volunteers from time to time to help at Dxhibitions, Shows, fund raising activities etc. If you can help in any way please contact Nettleham Health Centre (751717) or contact the Chairman - lff.. Harper-Smith ( Tetford 233).
However you contribute, your gift will matter to sr;meone, sometime, somewhere in Lincolnshire. Please hel:9 L.I.V.E.S. to save lives.
L.I.V.E.S. is LINCOLNSHIRE- other similar schemes elsewhere have different names e.g. D.A.H.'l'.S. Doncaster Area Hoad 'l'raffic Scheme.

My Day at the Palace For two years I had been working towards the Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award following activities from teaching swimming to getting lost in the middle of the Yorkshire Dales. The Award proved to be a great challenge and learning new skills was very interesting, but for me the most enjoyable part was the day I went to London to receive my certificate.
Mum and I stayed overnight in London and woke to find the rain pouring down. However as we approached Buckingham Palace a few hours later the sun was breaking through the clouds. The Palace gates were as usual surrounded by tourists but standing out from the crowds was a collection of exceptionally smartly dressed people.
At 1.30 pm precisely the guards allowed us to enter. As we walked into the lnner court I took the opportunity of absorbing the surroundings and the exciting atmosphere. Walking up the red carpetted stairs gave me a sense of elation, everywhere was so b_eautifully and intricately decorated. There wasn't enough time to stand and look at everything before we were ushered upstairs into the Picture Gallery.
Stewards showed us where to sit, in our regional groups, parents on one side and Award Holders on the other. When everyone had arrived we were informed of the usual procedure and then sat patiently to await the Duke's entrance. It was interesting to talk to strangers who had been through the same experience as myself and feel an immediate bond.
After about half an hour the doors to the Gallery opened and the whole room became silent as everyone stood up. As the Duke approached our group I began to feel nervous but as soon as he talked to us his relaxed manner set me at ease. He seemed much smaller than I imagined but apart from that he was the same as I had seen him on television. He chatted to the whole group for about five minutes, then he ventured over to the parents side and made a joke about us. Following him came his Equerry and after he left our certificates were presented to us by the regional steward.
Each of us was filled with a great sense of pride throughout the short ceremony bringing to a climax the feeling of achievement. Reflecting back on the enjoyment and hard work it all seemed worthwhile.

NETTLEHAM TUFTY CLUB
Tufty Club is open to any child cf three or over and meets in the Methodist Church Hall from 2pm - 3pm on the second Tuesday in the month (apart from school holidays).
Statistics show that of all children killed and injured in road accidents, the most vulnerable are those between the ages of three and eight. Therefore, Tufty Club aims to develop children 1 s senses, ie touch, taste, hearing, sight and smell, by providing stimulating materials and activities, and, with parents 1 help, make pre-school children more aware of Road Safety, and indeed all aspects of safety in the home as well.
Why not bring your child along on Tuesday, 13th September?
Further details of Tufty Club are displayed in the Health Centre, the Library and at Play Groups.
Would existing members please note that from September, Tufty Club will meet on Tuesdays, not Fridays.

�In Conversation \·Ji "th .Jinuny '_n�. I·a;�:. 08.\·T:,rq· /continued
After the 'tfar I had to go o� the farm as a day lad. A soldier vrho had been v:ounded, he was second hoss man, because there '"as what \..,as ea] led food production hosses there, that he was looking ;:tfter. If a farmer was short of horses, he could hire tHo of these hosses and a soldier \·that \·las not fit to eo back they could hire them and thc·y would come back to the farm again. After the Vlar this soldier stop:ped to be second hoss man
while he got demobbed - then I had to take the job on - I had six old army mules. Thow 'd soldier said "I '11 leave the coat and cap Jim,- it 111 be on a nail just round the corner - because if one of them get 1 s loose he 111 come for ;rou :md kick at you". I went in and he came for me and he was loose so I :?Ut the old h::1.t and coat on and went up to the crib and you could do owt with him once ;·rou had thf).t hat and coat on. I went out and got a bough - I ought to have had more sense vri th being used to hosses - and I got hold of his tail a.nd didn 1 t I give him biff 1mtil there vias a foot Mme each side and touched II'\Y ears - that learn 1 t me a lesson� r.lboy 'd been killing pigs one day and they'd had my buckets. There were t1..,0 (horses) in one standing, and I fetched II'\Y buckets after I'd hadmy dinner - Charlie Hurst - l1Jrs. Hursts husband - was waggoner -I went in with these buckets and they started on me, I jum:9ed in the crib, into the hayrack and then eot on a baulk and he had to come and thresh 1 em Hi th a whip while I got down from the baulk. They was now't left of the buckets because th8y had blood on them. I was only 13 then, got 12/6 a week, getting up at 4 in a morning and doing just as the waggoner had, double furrow plough and everything. Ride the binder, all but carry corn. Where did you get married'! At Lissington. Because you were a Lissington girl'! \-lell they moved about - (IVJrs. Sawyer) I W)rked at the '.lickenby Vicarage - the parson there Hanted me to get married there but my mother wouldn't let me, so we got married at Lissington. Vfhen was that? In 1926. He can remember! Well I should do I was as drunk as a lord - the parson helped to carry me to bed. I was out of work and biked it and i•Tas early and my suit was at their house so I called at the pub to have a pint and there was a man there - he was either biking to Scotl<=md from 'vfales or i1ales to Scotland- he'd got done at his job where he could live in. He'd stop:9ed for a pint and I said well I shall have to be going· but the landlady says Oh stop a bit longer, we haven 1 t had a Hedding here for 20 �rears. - stop and see it, but I said no I can 1 t and she 111as pumping me and telling me things - she knew all about the \..,edding more than I knew me sen. So I went and got changed and the first vlo!ll8n I see 'd was her teking me photo coming out of church. So when they took me to the pub she said - you devil! 'l'hey mixed me driruc and they had to carry roe home to bed, the parson helped an all.
Her mother had invited them from a] 1 over Hol ton Becb�ring an all. ''l1here was a big railway strike on at .that time. I 1d been ironstone mining before then against the prisonyou used to go in dovm Outer Circle Road in a grass field, across under the road, and we used to land up against the Prison; - thf:n the raih1ay come out on strike and I was out of work. '.L'hey were signing on at Lucy Tower Street and -.;hey were three or four abreast and th<Jy vrere to the �tone bow. LVerybody was out of \rork - I 1d signed on a month \..,hen they said ".::lorry mate you 're tv10 stamps short" 'rhey said 11You 111 have to go to your Road Roreman - he's seeing to it and I went -;;o F'reddy haw er and he said "':!ell I 111 gie ye a gang to die dykes out in Deepdale - Back Lane a,s it was called then. 'l'hree days a week and you got 7/6 Heek and a 7/6 grocer>J voucher - that vias it. Teddy '.�arwick and a gang· of them vTere in the beck cleaning out from .�ettleham to Riseholme.
Hhat ha_p::>ened that night 111hen he piled up all that stuff in from of the \�bite Hart'r DC!,d got up one Sunday morning, 111ent out a.nd come back and said "There's a sa.le at the \·lhi te Hart. Hother says '",..fhat is they" 'l'here 1s Hagons, carts, dog kennels, \..,heel barrm,rs, wa ttt:r tubs, 2 billy goats tied at the .1bi te Hart door and it says Sale commence at 11 on the Sunday so we went to ha.v a look on. Old C...�odyear (the landlord) was oulling at the door and these old billy goats - they \vere Johnny Procters billy go8,ts - a.nd he was :·nllcking <md going on and thovl 'd billygo<:ts 1110uldn 't let him come out. He had to go round the back. Gale used to have the top shop he summonsed him and he had to take everything back - he had to take his dog kennel back - nobody heard him d·a:i.ng the collecting during the night - He used to do things like that. He lived in the farm, he .had tvro daughters - one is still alive I think -· a school teacher. '1.'he last 2 hosses, vi ell they ,..,eren 1 t hosses, they sent for me from the stable yard to go to the house and they said Hav you had your tea': Ho. Hell go in the vash house and vie 'll bring you some. I thought I 'm going to have H good tea this time 1r.os it was a bit rough at home - I got bread and jam and a cup of tea. I thought "dam this" - but I went to the Station and when I got -there there was a li t"'.le owd S)ony as vlild as owt and great owd mule as
-
poor as a crow. 'iiell I had to drag him on but the pony kept runninG round so I ca lled at the Black Bull, and they give me a bridle for it. ;)o I tjed it to tho1\'{d mule then. '1'hey \'/ere the last two to be boud"J t.
'l'h«.t night I vTent to the house and they cive me me 'tea they Here falling out him and his mlssus and the lassies - and thP. oldest one had a great big bow1 of rice pudd.i.ng just �ome out the oven e.nd she bobbed. it strctight in his face� I was stond at the door. 'rhen they bought a house thP. other side of Lincoln to live -he got to knovT ' . ..rhere they went Emd he \-Tent as vtell. '.Chen tiH::y sold that house and went on again and he ,,,as tramping the roads -be had no1'1t he vms in rags. 'J.'hey had all that farm and everything o.nd th (7 finished up wi Lh nothinG• He c:ome from the north of the County when he came to Nettleham.

hCJ.d the boy - the last boy was six ;nonths old - I used to go shopping with him in the pram and I had a tame donkey, a tame n:'lnny goat, a tame co�kerel, a tame lamb, a tame goat, and a goose. They all used to follow behind the pram to the I'Jansford 1 s Shop on the Green, they used to sit outside, 1vbile I had done my shopping, then they \vould all follow me back to the farm aca.in. He had brought them all up from yo'ung ones with a bottle, Herbert Kerrison got us the la!nb \vhen he vias slaughterman. 'I'he dorLl<:ey had a cross from the tip of its head to the tip of its tail- called a sacred cross-and people used to come with any ::idclie that had Hhooping cough. I used to cut the hair from the cross and put it in a bag and stretch it up and put it round the neck and as the h;:dr vrent the cough would go. I cut it so many times, Hhen Lil Ladley came I was just going to cut a bit and it run me out of the field and into the house. The donkey vras fed up 1vi th it. \·ie h8.d some good times dmm there.
N9v1 Ji_fl.l!!l.L._atsaip,. I laughed once vre vrere in tho house and the old donkey used to oome in the house and we had a scotch collie and he would be jealous and would lik the donkey's heels to get him out. In the finish the donkey got so mad he run the dog round the house, round the paddock, the stable, in the crewyard - 1. had to go stop hjm at the finish, He had got his ears down and really mad.
vh� were in the farm when they were dropping the bombs. vie had a dug-out in the paddock. What about that night vrhen you ;.rere out vli th your cart in Chapel Lane and they were shooting at you·:
I H�S at '.:.'iger Smith's ya.rd (where Frank .ee.st lives) - I had just cows out there and I had that new dLLly-cart \•li th blown up wheels - when bang - everything shook -and the horse - vlell I had a job to hold him and I got right round Shaws before I could stop him. I thoueht it was a tyre burst, but I had a look and that was alright I got in :t:rn Baker's field to empty vrhen thov11d plane come round again and I had to put a cap on one light, blew one out and I run <md laid in the hedge bottom. I reckon they were shooting at me - it didn't half BANG in Chapel Lane. I heard the plane coming but I didn 1 t know it was a ,J ercy. ·· .. ihen he followed me round up Bade Lane I knew it was time I got the lights out.
,/hat \vas the real story of your mother having· 21 children tvlice�t Hell she had 21, they're in the family ";)ible, one died, and then she had another making 21 children tvlice - or 22. Hovr old \vas she then·r -- I don't lmmr but with her having to work cutting chaff etc. she lost several of them.
She vlas married three times, she never got a divorce, she just left one rmd went and got another one. I've got the :_:Jhotos of them somevrhere in the drawer. She finished off living in that house in Duck Alley': Yi.ss. 'dhen did she die .. :' �-JeJ.l its in the Bible. rw fatiwr Has 80 summat when he died. She st.ill decided to marry agc:_in after that'i' Oh! Ay! She must have been a fair age when she died':' somewhGre between f)6 -90 years old. Dad did himself really - he used to work for Billy Holland dovm Sudbrooke Lane, vTheding a dolly tub across the ploughed field to the chickens and then he had three days thr0shing and there were some young blokes there who reckoned they couldn 1 t carry eorn. 'l'hey couldn't thresh because there vTas no one to carry corn so the old chap said 11bring the Hagons up and put the planks up I 111 do it !r and he was 73. He \vas carrying 18 stone up a plank into the wagon for' 3 days. The doctor said he 1d worn his heart out. I vJOuld like to try one novl! I v!Ould says Jimmy just to try it out. I still ualk to Lincoln - I 'm 80 on July 9th. I'd sooner wan: than take the bus and keep fit. '!Then I first start and get near the Church I feel tired but by the time I get up vlasbdy�-::e I feel I could Halk 40 mile. Sometimes I go to Burton Road, Newport, down Steep Hill, round the market, on l'JoYLl<:s Road, up Arboretlnn, past the County Hospital and home.
I was in the street the otiler day vlhcm Nurse Heath said "Look at this man - he'll live to be 100! Hhilst some of you lot sit on your backside 1.•lhile you are doubled up.
