FOLLOWING IN THE HIMALAYAN FOOTSTEPS OF HIS DAUGHTER
Retired teacher John Holmes
(62) is trekking in the
Himalayas this month trying
to complete the renowned
Annapurna Circuit
for
charity in memory of his and
wife Madeleine’s beloved
daughter. Philippa.
She was a high flying past pupil
of Ecclesbourne School who
completed the Annapurna trek
herself in 2008, shortly before
her death the following year
from a sudden cardiac problem.
For this reason, John is raising
money for Cardiac Risk in the
Young* (CRY), and for the
Steve Sinnott Foundation.
Since Philippa’s death, John and
Madeleine have been involved
with the Burton Hospital NHS
Transplant Committee.
Last September, they received
the Order of St John in a
ceremony at St James’s Palace,
on behalf of Philippa. John and
Madeleine (see pic above) have
supported Philippa’s sister,
Fiona, and both her and
Philippa’s friends in their efforts
to raise money for charities in
her memory, (including scaling
Kilimanjaro recently).
Now that he has retired, it is
John’s turn to face up to the
challenge!
He said: “It is a real privilege to
be able to join my friends in this
major trek in Phil’s memory.
I’m sure that she will be with me
every step of the way.
“We are really proud of
everything that she achieved and
all that her sister is achieving
too.
“We believe that supporting
these charities and the
Transplant Service is a great
way to celebrate her life.”
The undertaking by John and
some friends is a 200 mile slog
on mountains which rise to
5,400 metres. It was a journey
John wanted to make with
Philippa at his side.
No doubt her presence will still
be felt. Continued page 5.

‘DISABLED FRIENDLY’ PATH OPENED IN THE MEADOW
Anne Wood, wife of the
Millennium
Meadow’s
originator, Rodney, officially
opened the newly laid
accessible path by cutting a
last
month
ribbon
(September 7th) and then
traversing the site in her
wheelchair to the Philippa
Holmes seat overlooking the
ponds.
Anne remarked that she is
very impressed by the way the
Meadow has developed and
although a townie herself, she
appreciated the hard work of
those involved and support
from Duffield Parish Council
to produce such a beautiful
place – now even better
because everyone can explore
it
.The original path was very
uneven and difficult for
anyone
with
mobility
problems to navigate.
Now levelled with a secure,
flat surface made of specially
laid mesh and new grass, it
allows everyone to enjoy the
Rodney Wood, Richard Bowmer (who created the new path), Adrian Needham, Nick
Mirfin, Jeannette Needham, Dave Hancock celebrating with Anne.
Meadow from wheelchair
users to babes in prams.
The special Disabled Access
gate can be opened with a
RADAR key – obtainable
from any disabled person’s
local authority e.g. Amber
Valley (£2.50) or Derby City
(free).
Proof of disability is all that is
required to obtain one and this
key will open any RADAR
key operated facility up and
down the land - including
public disability toilets.

AGAIN AT
THE AGE
OF 81
Hi
Please can you raise the awareness of readers in the Gilbert
Crescent, Broadway and Hall Farm Road area about a
danger to their pets.
This week we had a fox smash the back off our rabbit hutch and
sadly take the rabbit. I'm not sure how we could have prevented
this other than bringing the rabbit in at night which we are now
doing with the guinea pigs.
There is clearly a fox in the area who may repeat this behaviour.
Thank you
Emma Doleman
He’s at it again!! This time, Rodney Wood (81) is taking
part in the Derby Hospital’s Charity Carsington 8.5 mile
Water Walk on October 12th to raise money for the Cancer
Research Dept. at the Royal.
The difference is HE IS GOING TO RUN!
It’s to show his gratitude and support to those who are treating
his wife Anne who has now been living with cancer for over 12
years.
Please give generously if you can and encourage him by
making a donation on sheets which will be available in
Duffield News and the Post Office .You can also donate online

The Derby A Cappella Chorus in full voice
Duffield resident Martin
Thorne has been appointed
Musical Director of Derby A
Cappella Chorus, a small
men's barbershop chorus
based at Chester Green.
“With such enthusiastic and
fun-loving singers”, says
Martin, “this is an exciting
adventure!”
Martin (pictured centre of
front row)who has lived in the
village for over 25 years, has
sung in choirs at Birmingham
and Nottingham Universities
and in the Leeds Festival
Chorus under Sir Alexander
Goehr, Sir Colin Davis and
John Alldis.
In his youth he learnt classical
piano in London before going
on to obtain a teaching
diploma (LRAM) from the
Royal Academy of Music.
He was introduced to
barbershop singing as a
student but, with the demands
of family and career, did not
take it up again until joining
the Derby group five years
ago to sing baritone.
“There is something about the
barbershop
style
of
unaccompanied
close
harmony singing”, Martin
enthuses, “with its ringing
chords and catchy rhythms,
that gives me goosebumps –
Four in barbershop
harmony
Martin Thorne in

-9-
and we have great
fun along the way!”
Derby A Cappella
Chorus, which won
the Jack Rouse
Memorial Trophy at
this year's Derby
Arts
Festival,
perform a variety of
songs
from
traditional
barbershop classics
to barbershop-style
arrangements of songs
from the shows and
popular hits.
“We
encourage
quartet singing too
which is excellent training for
the ear as well as good fun”,
Martin adds. Founded in 1976
the
group
includes
experienced 'barbershoppers'
as well as more recent recruits
(the youngest member is 19).
They took part in this year's
Wirksworth, Melbourne and
Derby Feste festivals, and
Derbyshire Day at Calke
Abbey and they perform for
functions and private parties.
They are always keen to
welcome visitors and new
members at their weekly
rehearsals
on
Tuesday
evenings at Chester Green
Community Centre, City
Road, Derby DE1 3SA where,
as part of a national
programme coordinated by
the British Association of
Barbershop Singers, they will
also be holding special
introductory 'taster evenings'
on 7 and 14 October (previous
singing

ANOTHER STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE
Hello, my name is Peter
Jackson and I reside in the
USA.
I am a former Duffield
Old Boy having lived there
from the late 1940's through
the mid-1960's.
My grandparents are buried in
Duffield cemetery. I went to
school at what is now William
Gilbert and then on to
Allestree Woodlands. I also
played football with what was
Duffield Old Boys FC.
I read with delight Ms Patricia
Ellis article and it stirred some
great memories of many
places mentioned that I have
been to on several occasions.
I would like to include some
other places such as:
Radfords Garage on Towne
St. Duffield Café, it was
owned by an Australian
family, also on Towne St.
Greenhough the Cobbler by
the bus stop behind the bank.
Sykes Fish and Chips on the
Hello Barrie I would like to
send a reply to the Patricia
Ellis letter in ‘A trip down
memory lane’ in the Sept.
issue
from Geoff Steeples 27
Wirksworth Rd, Duffield.
Yes I remember everything
Patricia Ellis recalls in her
letter. I can go back much
further but it would fill too
many pages so I send a few
corner of Towne St and
Tamworth St.
I remember getting sixpence
worth on fish and chips and
peas all wrapped in newspaper
and sitting on the bench across
the road near the telephone
kiosk with my friends eating
and having a good time.
S.F. Upton the coal merchant
whose office was on Towne St
and coal yard was on Station
Rd just off the A6.
And who could forget dear old
Dr Mason and his son Dr
James Mason.
There was also the Midland
Bank which faces Towne St
across from the Kings Head.
Thank you for listening to me
and I hope I have been of
some help in some of
Duffield's past.
Should you need more I will
be glad to contribute.
Peter Jackson
to provoke peoples memory.
I remember Fenleys and
Hortons garages as children
we went to Hortons to get old
car tyres to use as hoops or as
we called them bowels in
summer time we asked for
inner tubes to play in the river
Ecclesbourne on.
The old mill on Mill Green
produced soap till the war
started thats why it was called
Peter in his late
teens while living
in Duffield.......
... and the years
roll by Peter
now
living
across
the
Atlantic.
the soap mill it still had the
water wheel in the 1940’s but
fell into decay in the 1950’s. I
remember the passenger train
from Derby going up the
Wirksworth line passing
Holloway Road at 5.35pm.
Macs electric shop was Billy
Hattons barber shop when I
was a lad. there was a large
wood shed on the A6 across
from Avenue Road junction
right where the bus stop to
Derby is now. Jack Gould
used to repair bicycles and sell
parts there.
I remember
Handburys bake house in
Fisher Lane. As children we
would get old cakes given to
us but we sometimes bought a
large bread cob to share and
eat it under the
railway
tunnel that went under King
street.
hello Barrie of course you can use the letter I sent. New people living in Duffield should know what it was like years ago.
I enclose a pic of the scout hut that was near the railway line foot bridge on Holloway Rd taken before the houses were built
It was taken from top of snake lane about 1929 Thanks

Derbyshire farm shop
Croots has struck gold
in the Great Taste
Awards 2014 by winning
a gold star for its
smoked salmon pâté.
The awards run by the
Guild of Fine Food are
regarded as the ‘Oscars’
of the fine food world and
the annual event is the
largest and most trusted
awards
scheme
for
speciality fine food and
drink in the UK.
Croots Farm Shop, based
at Farnah House Farm,
Wirksworth Road, near
Duffield, has won a
number of Great Taste
Awards in previous years
for its sausages, bacon,
pork pie, ale, muesli and
lemon oil.
The latest gold star has
been awarded for the
store’s smoked salmon
pâté, which is made of
salmon
that’s
been
smoked on the shop’s
premises in its own
smokery. The judges said:
“A great appearance and
good creamy texture with
discernible pieces of
fish.”
Farm shop owner Steve
Croot said: “We are really
pleased to have added
another gold star to our
collection of awards. It’s
the first we have received
for our smoked salmon
pâté, which is one of the
most popular items on our
deli counter here at
Croots.”
The shop has won scores
of awards for its products
since opening in 2008.
A
year later, it was

PRE-XMAS FACELIFT FOR YOUR HOME?
When it comes to your
home, you want it to be
comfortable and inviting
to those who take the time
to visit. And you want it to
be something you can be
proud to show off.
If your home seems a little
dreary or outdated, a few
changes
will
simple
brighten things up and leave
you with a feeling that
you've just given your home
a much needed facelift.
Simply sprucing up your
home:
Painting -One of the main
ways people tend to
redecorate their homes is by
painting.
This
is
an
inexpensive method that can
create a whole new look.
When painting your rooms,
it is important to remember
to take into account the
existing furnishings, unless
you plan on purchasing new
furniture, as well. You can
also
consider
adding
wallpaper to one wall. This
can create a subtle (or not so
subtle depending on the
wallpaper you choose)
visual interest to the room.
Window treatments Whether you are aiming for
an ultra modern and
contemporary look or a
warm and inviting country
French look, you'll find a
variety of styles, fabrics and
colours to choose from.
Cafe curtains are a great
way to let light in while
preserving some privacy.
For a new look in your
living room, try something
simple and sophisticated. If
you have the skills to sew,
you can try out new looks
for the cost of fabric and
your time. If you're crafty,
you can try your hand at a
new slipcover for your sofa
or new cushions that
coordinate
with
your
window treatments.
If you don’t have the time,
our made tomeasure service
is all you need.
Accessories - One of the
most enjoyable ways to
change or add to your decor
is through the use of well
placed
accessories.
Accessories
can
be
purchased in a variety of
shapes, sizes and colours
that will add visual interest
and personality to your
home. Place them on tables
and windowsills, hang

artwork on the walls, place
large plants in ceramic pots
and light with hidden uplights for a dramatic effect.
You'll want to choose
accessoriethat compliment
the decor of your home. Be
sure to choose a variety of
elements
for
your
accessories such as ceramic,
glass, metal, wood, stone,
live plants, etc. Accessories
are a fun and easy way to
change the atmosphere in
your home. Improving your
home's decor can be as
simple as a paint job, an
exquisite new window
treatment, or a beautiful
collection of accessories.

old look in your home,

CELEBRATING 20 YEARS OF SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY
Carwise, the car sales and
service business in Milford
Road has just reached the
20th anniversary of its
founding.
In June 1994, Steve Warner,
Nigel Goodwin and business
partner John Whiteman set
out to build a business with a
local focus and a high
standard of customer service
and now Carwise is still
thriving thanks to the loyal
support of local people.
Steve and Nigel would like
to think it’s because of their
personal commitment and
involvement, but this is
supported
by
what
customers
say
about
Carwise:
“The attention to detail from
CARWISE
has
been
fantastic. Steve and Nigel
were great and their honest
approach reflects the family
nature of the company”.
(Paul Starkie)
Carwise is known and
recommended locally for the
hand-picked used cars that it
supplies, then supports and
services.
There is now a greater
emphasis
on
sourcing
exactly the used car that you
want:
“I would like to say a very
big thank you again as you
have gone the extra mile to
find exactly the car I had set
my heart on”.
(David
Conquest)
What is not so well-known is
that Carwise can procure
any make or model of a
brand new car.
Nigel and Steve can usually
find a better deal than is
available locally, still from
an official dealer and with
full warranty, but with the
personal touch.
“We recently decided to
purchase my wife a brand
new car.
“After a discussion with
Carwise, Nigel and Steve
asked if they could quote for
supplying the new car I
intended to buy.
“They did so and I was very
pleasantly surprised that the
figures that they quoted me
for both taking the old car in
part exchange and supplying
the new one, to the colour
and specification we wanted,
were
much
more
competitive than the price I
had received from the
manufacturer’s main dealer.
“I was pleased to place my
order with them and they
arranged the whole deal”.
(Peter and Iris Baines)
If the worst happens and
your vehicle is damaged in
an accident,
Carwise will manage the
entire project.
They take responsibility for
the entire process; initially
dealing with the Insurance
Company Engineer, booking
the repair centre, through to
ensuring the repair is
completed to the highest
standard.
Twenty years on, the
partners have a few more
grey hairs but are still
working hard to maintain the
quality of service.
The team is evolving, with
Alex Jenkins joining this

Toyota

Louise Rowland and Lynne
Hurrell provide financial
and administrative support,
while Jose Lopes and Chris
Brooks prepare, service and
repair cars in Carwise’s
workshop.
A final comment from a
loyal customer:
“I've been a customer of
Carwise for over 10 years. In
that time I've bought four
cars from Steve and Nigel.
“Janet and I have had both
of our cars serviced by their
team for the same period of
time. From my point of
view, their sales and service
are first class.
“It's personal, friendly,
helpful, efficient and service
pricing and repair charges
are extremely good value”.
(John King)
The Carwise team will be
pleased to welcome you and
help you solve any motoring
problem.

PUBLISHING DEAL FOR WOULD BE CLOONEY WIFE
Last year Tracy Blythe took
the plunge and selfpublished her romantic
comedy novel, NO-ONE
EVER HAS SEX ON A
TUESDAY, writing under
the pen name of Tracy
Bloom.
It was partly due to the
support she had from Duffield
residents that led to it
becoming a number one best
seller on Amazon.
“People would stop me on the
street to tell me they’d bought
it and really enjoyed it,” said
Tracy.
“That blew me away.
Everyone’s support was
crucial in the early days to get
my book noticed.
“I’m so grateful to everyone
who read it and particularly
those who left a review
online.”
It wasn’t long before Penguin
Random
House
came
knocking and offered her a
four book publishing deal.
A dream come true after some
years of trying.
“My son’s advice as I dropped
him off at William Gilbert
School on my way to London
to discuss the deal was that I
should do four forward rolls to
impress my prospective
publishers.
Unfortunately the room was
too small which was quite a
relief!”
Acrobatics were clearly not
required however as a deal
was agreed and Penguin
Random House will publish
Tracy’s latest novel, I WILL
MARRY GEORGE CLOONEY
(BY CHRISTMAS) on October
9th.
Another romantic comedy,
this book is about Michelle, a
single
mother
from
Derbyshire who works in a
chicken factory and decides
that her only option to turn her
life around is to try and marry
George Clooney.
It was actually written before
"Tracy Bloom with
cardboard cut-out
of George
Clooney".
Mr.Clooney announced his
engagement but Tracy doesn’t
think that’s a problem
especially given the reaction
she’s had when she’s taken her
cardboard cut-out of the
famous actor out and about to
promote the book.
“I think he’s still most
women’s fantasy,” she said,
“and sometimes you have to
dream the impossible because
you never know where it
might take you.”
To find out how exactly a
woman from Derby goes
about trying to marry
George Clooney you can buy
Tracy’s
book
on
Amazon.co.uk or in shops
from October 9th.
GOLFING SUCCESSES AT CHEVIN
The Derbyshire Ladies’County Championship was held over
three days at Chevin Golf Club last month and the standard
throughout was very good despite some rainfall.
Sunday produced a very close, well contested final of high
quality golf, eventually won on the 17th by Aimee Wilson of
Mickleover who retained the trophy she won last year.
Congratulations to Josh Williams for winning the gross prize for
the Chevin Junior Open. There were some close results and it was
great to see some members from other local Clubs taking part. It
would be great to see even more juniors taking part next year.
Daniel Lee from Ashbourne won the Net prize and Bethany
Griffin from Chevin was second, writes
The Tiny Tim Charity Day was again a great success, with a full
field for the Am-Am competition.The meal in the evening was
followed by a guest speaker and a charity auction.It was the 18th
year at Chevin for this event.
The charity supports children with special needs in Derbyshire
who would not otherwise qualify for support.

Hea lt
h an d Wellb ein g
with
Dr. Stavros Mihaletos DC MChiro
It’s been bothering me for a
while. How do I explain the
utter simplicity of the idea of
disease in such a way that it
does not appear to be taken
lightly?
A functional disorder is
medically defined as a
condition that impairs the
normal function of a bodily
process, but where every
part of the body appears
normal under examination,
dissection or even under a
microscope.
The names we give to
diseases are simply a term to
describe chronic condition
in the body caused by a
primary altered function.
Altered function of any part
of the body is the primary or
basic pathology that if
unrecognised or uncorrected
by the central nervous
system or a physician, will
manifest as those signs that
we are so good at naming.
Harrower, in 1922, stated
that the greatest source of
failure in modern treatment
is that we are treating the
disease rather than the
patient.
He advocated a move to
recognising
the
early
influence of a disorder, the
subclinical
signs
of
functional pathology.
There is no doubt at this
point in our modern
evolution that the body is a
self correcting mechanism
which uses homeostasis to
maintain
its
optimal
functioning
integrity.
Sometimes
something
interferes with this ability
and
either
structural,
chemical or psychological
processes become limited
leading to the body’s
inability to cope.
Granted this is a philosophy
of health, just as our modern
medical view of is a
philosophy of disease.
Tons of research have shown
the power of modern
medical treatments, all of
which are life saving and
critical, but do we have the
ability to find the subclinical disorder before it
wreaks havoc, and then, can
we help the body adapt and
cope back to full recovery?

NO COWS SO IT’S A MOWING JOB ON THE MEADOW
The girl at the garden
centre was very helpful
when my husband Dave
suggested the packets of
seeds be removed from
the display entitled ‘Grow
your own Herbs’ – but
only after I had disabused
her of the idea you could
make cup of tea from an
infusion of the leaves once
grown.
Her confusion was
understandable when
reading the back of the
packet.
At a glance, it referred to
‘steeping the leaves to make
a refreshing tea’ but only on
second reading did she see ‘for cut flowers’. The plant
in question? “Foxglove” that
contains digitalis which, if
consumed, can cause
serious heart problems! We
wrote to the seed firm and
they promised to review
their displays.
Insects and many animals in
the wild have bright colours
or distinctive patterns with
which to warn off predators
and indicate they are not
pleasant to eat. These are
often very obvious like the
yellow and black of a wasp
or the eyes on a peacock
butterfly’s wing. It is less
obvious with plants.
Children learn very quickly
to avoid stinging nettles and
the thorns on a blackthorn
branch or a hawthorn bush
will deter anyone or
anything from pushing
through it or grasping it –
hence their use as hedging
for pastures where stock
grazes. Blackthorn thorns
are notorious for having
long lasting effects if lodged
under the skin and some
people react badly.
Less well known perhaps is
the effect of Common

TAKE CARE WITH YOUR E-MAILS..THEY COULD BE FAKES
A number of residents have
mentioned fake payment
phishing emails they have
received,
and
recently
having received a couple
myself, I thought that this
warning from the police was
rather timely and would be
useful to pass on.
The
National
Fraud
Intelligence Bureau (NFIB)
has recently received a
number of reports about
emails
containing
an
attachment, which once
opened, may infect the
computer with a virus.
The
email
contains
information
about
a
transaction which appears to
have been sent by a legitimate
company. However, the email
address of this company has
been ‘spoofed’ and has
actually been sent by a
fraudster. T
he email is sent to the victim
with information regarding a
fake transaction which has
recently taken place and is
often complete with an order
number and payment details.
The email will state that more
detailed information about the
purchase can be found in the
attachment. Once opened, this
is likely to download a virus
onto the computer.
The East Midlands Fraud and
Financial Investigation Unit
have said that scams such as
this are designed to play on
your curiosity in order to get
you to open the email
attachment and infect your
computer with a virus.
These emails appear highly
convincing and many people
fall victim to the scam as they
want to find out more about
the transaction. If you receive
one of these emails, do not
open or download the
attachment and delete it
straight away.
Police are advising people to
follow the steps below to help
to protect themselves from
falling victim to phishing
email scams:
•
Do
not

Some characteristics of fake

•
The sender’s email
address doesn’t tally with the

•
The email is sent from
a

different

address
•
The email does not use

•
A sense of urgency; for
example the threat that unless
you act immediately your
account may be closed
•
A prominent website
link. These can be forged or
seem very similar to the
proper address, but even a
single character’s difference
means a different website
•
A request for personal

•
The email contains

errors
•
You weren't expecting

AS YOU WERE ON THE CRICKET SCENE
Duffield Cricket Club
players went through a
whole gamut of emotions
before their season ended
just as it began...each of the
three senior teams will be
playing next summer in
exactly the same division as
they did this year.
So the 2014 season cannot be
regarded as a disappointment
for the Club but no doubt
some members may well feel
they were not at their best
when it mattered most.
It caused a halting second part
of the season for the 1st XI
when they fell away but
nevertheless managed a
creditable 4th position in
Division One.
That was in no small measure
due to Chris Sheldon, the
only player to top 500 runs
(589 at 31.00 average) in the
League and his skipper Paul
Bakel (485 at just over 30
average).
Hard hitting James Pipe
could only play in half the
matches and the batting
missed
his
exhilarating
momentum.
Pipe, Peter Jenkins and
Thomas Roe averaged in the
twenties - they each have the
talent to do better,
Aussie Luke Webb (45
wickets at under 20) led the
bowling and got better as the
wickets hardened and his
fellow seamers Adam Short
(39 wkts at 20.20) and Joe
Wozniczka-Wells (32 wkts at
22.78) generally supported
him well.
Spinner Jono Clare did the
business (35 wkts at 23.60)
but there was a need for an
effective fifth bowler.
In the 2nd XI (Div 4 North)
Philip Jordan showed his all
round prowess - 31 wickets
and nearly 400 runs - but the
team could have done with
more availability by bowlers
Ed Sims and Will Eisenberg
and batsman Oliver Paish, the
only century maker.
The team showed great spirit
in the last two matches to
stave off relegation as did the
3rd XI who were indebted to
the consistency of Adam
Burnham (515 runs at over
57 average) and a late burst of
runs from experienced Mark
Antill (360 at 61.66). Overall
there were not enough
satisfactory totals and the
bowling lacked penetration.
