Don’t forget if you have not donated and you wish to do so you can hand your envelope to any Committee member or put it through my door 12 Coombe Lane.

FAREWELL TO COLIN AND ANDREA FOX
It is with a great sense of loss that the parish of Enford has to bid farewell to the Reverend Colin Fox and his wife Andrea after their eight years service to the community. Colin’s humanity, sense of humour and spiritual leadership together with his gift of friendship has been appreciated by everyone in the parish. His support for families and individuals at times of per-sonal crises has been immense; he has always made himself available to help whatever the occasion, no matter what the cost to himself. His love of country life and its pursuits, together with his earlier service in the Royal Green Jackets, made him an ideal priest for the Avon Valley and he has worked tirelessly, together with Andrea, to maintain and improve the community life of the church both here and in the other six parishes in the Benefice. They leave with our thanks and appreciation of all that they have given to Enford over the past years and we wish them a long, healthy and happy retirement in Teffont – they will be much missed.

FAREWELL TO COLIN FOX FROM THE NEWSLETTER COMMITTEE
As Colin Fox and his wife Andrea, leave us for their new home and new life in Teffont, we will be left with very fond memories of a warm, kind, generous man who has cared for the people in this Parish for 15 years. Many of our lives will have been touched by his gentle spirit and his strong support when times were difficult and a helpful hand was needed to see the path forward. We will also remember him for his humour, his friendliness and his ability to generate great happiness. So we wish good luck to both Colin and Andrea. Teffont doesn’t know it yet but it is a very lucky village.

LOCAL POLICING
I have taken a report about the use of plaits in horse theft preparations: “Owners need to be keeping an eye out for evidence of their horses being marked by the thieves. They do this in advance of the actual theft by twisting 1 or 2 sections of the mane and then tying it securely with a couple of knots. This makes it easier for the rest of the thieves to come back at night and determine which horses are to be taken. To some it would look like the animal just had a tangled mane but the knots give it away. They favour coloured horses/ponies Piebalds and Skewbalds. They also favour cobs which are a heavier sturdier breed. Sometimes they mark buildings like stables and tack rooms so when they come back at night to commit the crimes they know exactly where to go. Owners may also notice that their horses are slightly spooked and may have sweated up due to strangers hanging around or trying to approach them in their fields.” In two local cases this month the plaits were found and removed, the horses were moved and the thefts were thwarted. As the price of metal remains buoyant, so thefts of metal continue. If you can, lock all metals away, or keep them away from public scrutiny. The money that the thief makes from the stolen metal is often a tiny sum in comparison with the inconvenience and cost of repairing the damage caused when the thief takes the metal. Nothing is spared, a Victorian mission hall bell was recently stolen from Netheravon, it will probably be melted down. I remember my sense of outrage in Iraq, when I saw a line of upended electricity pylons in a useless row in the desert; they had been pulled down by thieves stealing copper. The result of this action was that several villages suffered power cuts, causing a problem that took several years to rectify. Incidents have included unsupervised dogs going for a dog on a lead, causing distress to the smaller victim dog, and hare coursers charging through crops, oblivious to the damage caused I hope to see you at the Fete shortly.

On a wet and cold evening the Garden Club had a lovely visit to Longstreet House garden and were shown round by Jenny Scott Dalgleish and Carol Davies. All the borders were a riot of colour and the roses were perfection. The planting in the new walled garden looked very mature and everyone was surprised it was only three years old. A lot of questions received helpful answers and some people were very busy with pen and paper.
It was a very happy and instructive evening and of course gardeners are not deterred by weather, 28 people attended.

ALL SAINTS ENFORD CHURCH The Vicarage Netheravon
01980 670326
For the Monthly Magazine
July 2011 Dear Friends,
This is the last letter I shall write as Andrea and I move house into retirement in the middle of August. My last Sunday service will be on 31st July at 10.30am in Netheravon Church to which you are all very welcome. Saying goodbye is always difficult especially as we leave with so many happy memories after eight years. I am reminded of Bob Hope’s song “Thanks for the Memories” which expresses much of the sentiment I feel. As we go we are leaving behind some very good friends and happy thoughts of some real characters that make up our different villages in the valley. Looking back we have had a lot of fun which I believe to be a very important part of priestly ministry. I have always felt that the Christian religion encompasses a wide community of people and that sometimes the Church has been guilty of creating a “Holy Huddle.” A great deal of thought and care is going into finding my replacement and I hope it will not be long before The Vicarage is occupied once more. As I leave The Rev’d Mark Zammit has become the Team Rector of the newly formed Avon River Team which now in-cludes 7 villages, adding Durrington to the Avon Valley Benefice. Ministry will continue under his capable direction, ably sup-ported by The Rev’d Ann Keating, The Rev’d Rachel Bussey and Tina Draycott (who will be ordained in October) the two Licensed Lay Ministers (Chrysogon and Christine) and the many Lay Pastoral Assistants and Churchwardens. I feel confident that I leave behind welcoming and friendly churches, all of whom have changed in some way or another - some structurally with new loos and kitchenettes, others with new lighting and more space to move freely around the church, enabling a more relaxed form of worship. How fortunate we are to live in this part of England with its wide-open spaces and such good people to make the villages what they are. I finish with some words of St. Paul, writing 2,000 years ago to the Philippians (in what is now part of Greece): “And now my friends, all that is true, all that is loveable and gracious, whatever is excellent and admirable fill all your thoughts with these things.” These words sum up how much I feel we should fix our thoughts on the noble, the just, the pure, the loveable, the gracious – whatever is excellent and admirable. It is true that the way we think makes us the people we are. May God’s blessing be with you all. Colin Fox

PLAINWATCH NUMBER 01980 674700
PLAINWATCH is specifically designed to rapidly identify suspicious activity on the Plain: firstly and principally to iden-tify criminal activity but secondly to deter such activity. We seek the support of those Parishioners who regularly use the Plain for recreational purposes, who when doing so spot what could be termed suspicious or even criminal activity taking place. No approach or contact should be made with potential of-fenders. If such an opportunity occurs we would be pleased to hear from you via a special telephone number which we have set up within our 24 hour Operations Cell: 01980 674700. We would welcome your assis-tance in making the Plain more secure and a safe place to enjoy.
POLICE WARNING
THIEVES OPERATE ON THE TRAINING AREA SECURE YOUR VEHICLES AND EQUIPMENT AT ALL TIMES
Imber A combination of difficult terrain and unexploded military debris make it hazardous to leave the tarmac roads. The public are excluded from Imber Ranges at all times except when the roads are opened to reduce journey times across Imber Ranges. It is planned to open the roads through Imber as follows: 1. August Bank Holiday Weekend 27th, 28th, 29th August 2. September 3rd -4th to celebrate St Giles’s Day 3. The celebration of Remembrance Day 12th -13th November 4. Christmas from 17th December – 2nd January 2012 Note. Even when the roads are open the village remains out of bounds to the public These dates may change if operational training needs dictate UPCOMING MAJOR EXERCISES. During the following major exercises access may be restricted on Larkhill Ranges and in the Chitterne – Shrewton – Tilshead Triangle north of the B390. Ex PASHTUN DAWN 24 Jul – 22 Aug Ex LIONSTRIKE 26 Sep – 30 Sep Ex WESSEX THUNDER 13 Nov – 27 Nov PUBLIC USE OF THE MILITARY LANDS Offences Causing Most Trouble to Users of SPTA. Currently the greatest problems are:
Illegal “Off Roading” by 4WD and motor cycles i.e. not on metalled roads or byways, or without Road Tax. MOT or Insurance. Three motorcycles were seized in April. Criminal damage Fly Tipping Theft of and from vehicles and theft of metal. Poaching (including hare coursing).
PUBLIC USE OF THE MILITARY LANDS What You Can Do to Reduce Crime. You can report suspicious activity to PLAINWATCH (01980 674700) (a Ministry of De-fence Police intelligence gathering project). The more information the better e.g. time place, vehicle registration, description of individuals and vehicles. If a crime is taking place call 999 and do not challenge the offenders.
Dogs Fouling We have no funds to provide “dog bins” . In Larger quantities faeces are hazardous waste but small amounts of faeces can be placed in any rubbish bin if “bagged”. All we ask is that:: Dog walkers stay away from military training. Owners pick up faeces, bag them, take them home and put them in their own bin. For those who object to removing faeces, please “Google” Toxicara Canis Salisbury Plain Maps. The latest maps of Salisbury Plain are Ordnance Survey 1:25000 Explorer Series: Salisbury & Stonehenge (Sheet 130) 2009: Warminster & Trowbridge (Sheet 143) 2010
