OFFICIAL OPENING OF WREN’S SHOP AND
POST OFFICE
After the early threat of rain, 5th
August blossomed into a beautiful
afternoon and a great time was had by
all. Terry Pratchett opened the Post
Office and shop by cutting a ribbon
with an enormous pair of scissors
(with a little help from Janeen Evans,
discreetly wielding the cutters which
actually did the job). The shop’s
suppliers provided an excellent
tasting event, the bar was donated by
Hidden Brewery and Taste of Shadows
provided fun entertainment. The whole
event was covered by regional
television and the press.
Many people said that it would
be nice to have an event for the
village around the same time every
year, but quite different in style
from the fête. We shall see! Ed.
WINIFRED LETTICE GLEN-COATS 1929 -
2006
Lettice died peacefully on Friday 4th
August after a long battle with
cancer, bravely borne.
She was born in Paisley,
Scotland, daughter of Harold and
Elizabeth Glen-Coats and was the
younger sister of Elizabeth. She went
to St Columba’s School, Paisley.
In 1949 the family moved to
Clouds Park, where Lettice took an
active part in village and county
pursuits. Her great interests and
lifelong loves were horses, riding,
dogs, her beloved donkeys and outdoor
pursuits.
She served the Girl Guide
Movement faithfully for 35 years,
rising to be County Commissioner for
Wiltshire South. Helen Lever, an East
Knoyle Girl Guide who read The Gaelic
Prayer so beautifully at the funeral
on 15th August said, “She gave so many
girls the opportunity to achieve their
fullest potential. She did this by a
combination of firmness and kindness.
Camping was always such fun with
her.”
Lettice was a much respected
Magistrate, starting in 1967 at
Tisbury and Mere District Court, later
becoming Deputy Chairman. She was
finally at the Juvenile Court in
Salisbury, retiring in 1992.
The Red Cross was always close
to her heart, starting in 1950 as a
VAD and then as a member of the East
Knoyle Group, where she served on the
Christmas Gift Committee—wisely
offering advice on who the recipients
should be and giving generously to the
Fund, which she helped to distribute,
so I am told by Jean Butler. Jean
also said that each year Lettice gave
the Christmas Turkey to the
Handicapped Club, where she helped
with teas until very recently and
where her scones were much
appreciated.
Lettice was a great support to
her many friends and neighbours and to
all the Charities and Committees with
which she worked so hard.
Her Funeral Service, which she
had written herself, portrayed her
true and loving character. The
Reverend June Lane took the Service
and the Church was full, reflecting
the love and admiration we all felt
for Lettice. Afterwards, family and
friends met together in the Village
Hall for tea.
Thanks to Elizabeth, Lettice
was able to stay in her own home—which
meant so much to them both.
We are very lucky to have
known such a very special person,
whose strong Christian faith was
reflected in all she did in her life.
She will be greatly missed. Diana

ROYAL BRITISH LEGION - WOMEN’S
SECTION
On a sunny August afternoon,
more than 30 members of the RBL
gathered for an enjoyable Strawberry
Tea. Our thanks go to Gill & Mike
Waterhouse for hosting this event in
such delightful surroundings. Maybe
they should take credit for the
weather too as, yet again, it was
perfectly suited to the occasion.
The next meeting of the
Women's Section will take place in the
Village Hall (Billiard Room) on
10th October, when the Officers &
Committee for the coming year will be
elected. Offers to fill any of these
positions would be very welcome and
gratefully received. To conform to the
rules a President, Chairman, (who
cannot be the same person), Secretary
&Treasurer must be elected. Currently
we have no offers for the Chairman &
Secretary positions. We hope that as
many members as possible will attend
this meeting so that there can be full
representation. This year at our
Poppy Appeal Lunch on 4th November we
are lucky to have as guest speaker
General Sir John Wilsey, who will give
a talk on the War Graves Commission.
Details of ticket price and timing
will be displayed on the notice
boards. Everyone is welcome.
The annual subscription for
members (£7) is due on 1st October and
can be paid at the AGM or to Sally
Swin (Rosella, Shaftesbury Rd.
tel:830583). Sally Swain
THE ROYAL BRITISH LEGION
A DAY TO REMEMBER - The outing to
Buckingham Palace arranged by Tony
Thresh for 7th September was a great
success. Thirty two members and
friends travelled in comfort by
Grosvenor Coaches on time each way.
Beautiful weather and the two tours to
the Queen's Gallery in the morning and
to the State Rooms after lunch were
leisurely, with good audio guides to
help follow the pictures, furniture
and uses of the Palace generally.
An unexpected bonus was to see
Prince Philip, Prince Edward and
Sophie chatting informally to the
drivers and crews of cars ready for
the start of the Monte Carlo Rally,
which starts from the Palace this
year. For many, the star show was the
80th birthday display of the Queen's
dresses - from the 1940's till now.
The designs and workmanship were
breathtaking, as were the accompanying
pieces of jewellery. On the same
theme, the display of 80th birthday
greetings from children, schools and
other organisations were both poignant
and amusing.
Most of the party took a good
carvery lunch at Ruben's Hotel. Those
who bought a drink were sharply
reminded of the difference between
London prices and those of our
locals.
POPPY APPEAL 1) Once again Roy Halsall
(830499) is looking for volunteers,
old and new, to make sure that 2006
keeps us up to recent years’ record
results. He needs help both at
Willoughby Hedge and for house-to-
house collections, especially as he
will not have available this year some
his best old hands. Please help if you
can. Roy still wants your coins /
notes - old or new - in any currency.
Used stamps are also wanted. If you
are taking the trouble to save these,
please do go one step further and trim
them to ¼” or so round the edges. The
last batch, weighing 3 lb 4oz, was
reduced to 1 lb 9oz by the time Liz
had trimmed the waste paper.
2) The Musical Evening on 30th
September starts things off. Do
please come to St. Mary's and
enjoy.
3) Remembrance Sunday is 12th
November. Our arrangements will be
traditional. Assemble at 10.40am and
enter Church at 10.50 am. The whole
Collection goes to the Poppy
Appeal.
4) Women's Section Lunch is on
Saturday 4th November in the Village
Hall.
LOSS OF OLD COMRADE - Sadly, Bill Mock
passed away peacefully in Shaftesbury
Hospital on 15th July. He was a great
family man and his funeral service
showed the affection in which he was
held by family and friends. He was a
loyal member of the branch for 59
years and it was a privilege to be
asked by the family for the Standard
to be lowered in his memory.
ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTIONS - New membership
cards will be available shortly and
our Treasurer Martin Snell would
appreciate prompt payment (£11.50) as
he will be abroad for several weeks
from late October. New blood welcome!!
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING - this will be
on Monday 6th November at the Fox &
Hounds at 7pm for the Monthly Meeting,
followed by the AGM at 7.30-ish. Denys
Butler
GARDEN CLUB
As one of our members said, “The visit
to Highgrove was like a holiday - none
of the bother that travel entails of
planning the route, driving and other
hazards”. What a wonderful day - a
smooth drive, studying the countryside
from the vantage point of comfortable
seats. We were met at the entrance by
a smiling Gloucestershire police
officer. Our credentials were vetted
and the coach examined. We
disembarked and were greeted by
another smiling face, a young lady who
invited us to enter the Orchard Room.
Some of the Prince’s paintings were
displayed, together with other ethnic
ornaments and glorious orchids. We
were introduced to our guide, a
charming, knowledgeable lady with a
sense of humour. She guided us
through the lovely grounds with views
of wild flowers, farm houses, a
distant church steeple and the
house.
The house was built in the
18th Century and bought by the Prince
of Wales in 1981 from the son of
Harold Macmillan. Sculptors and
garden designers had worked with the
Prince to create vistas. We were
amused by one wall of ‘bits and
pieces’ created and carved by students
of the Built Environment. Exoticas
such as bananas, gunnera, Australian
tree ferns, eucalyptus and New Zealand
flax were showing well. There were
ponds with Koi carp and dragonflies
and a topiary garden with strange
geometric shapes. Through beautifully
carved gates we glimpsed pots, from
those small enough to grace our own
gardens to ones gigantic enough for
Ali Baba. There was a black and white
garden, full of maroon and white
flowers, a perfumed lavender garden
and espaliered trees laden with apples
and pears. The pièce de resistance
was the Carpet Garden, created by the
Prince from the design of a Turkish
Carpet at Highgrove. The garden won a
Silver Award at the 2001 Chelsea
Flower Show.
We returned to the Orchard
Room for tea and shortbread biscuits
before loading ourselves with gifts
and plants at the shop. This is a
garden to remember designed with love,
talent and humour.
Our next meeting is on 16th
October at 7.30pm in the Village Hall,
when Chris Hunter will talk
on ‘Pruning fruit trees’. Entrance:
members £1.50, non-members £3
including coffee and biscuits.

TISBURY & DISTRICT LINK SCHEME To
book call 01747 870194 To volunteer
call 01747 870194
The popularity of the Link Scheme
continues to grow. Significantly,
there is an increase in its use for
social & domestic purposes e.g.
shopping, although the requests for
transport to a surgery, clinic, or
hospital have not diminished. Sadly,
the pool of volunteer drivers has not
increased significantly and the
availability of volunteer drivers in
the outlying villages is still very
limited. The drivers are currently
paid 40p a mile towards their running
costs for the round trip from their
home and back. The greater the number
of volunteer drivers, the easier it
will be to satisfy the requests. The
greater the number of locations where
the drivers are based, the easier it
is to match locally the volunteer and
the user. This will reduce the 'dead
mileage' costs, which will in turn
reduce the overheads to the Scheme.
Since the Link Scheme began on
1st March this year, it has received
requests from more than 100 users and
completed more than 190 requests.
There is no charge for the services,
but the Link Scheme depends on
donations from its users to operate.
Volunteers for any of the Scheme
services are always welcome. To
volunteer please call 01747 870194.

THE ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE
Are you standing up with your throat?
Holding your shopping bag with your
shoulders? Talking with your feet?
Up to 90% of us are doing such things
without even realising it. No wonder
that we ache and finally resort to all
manner of expensive therapists who, in
my experience, provide only temporary
relief at best. About 100 years ago,
F. Matthias Alexander tackled the
problem from a different angle. He
realised that there is a dynamic
relationship between the neck, head
and spine, which affects every
movement we make. When this
relationship has become disrupted the
whole organism compensates for the
loss of balance, creating stress
throughout.
The Alexander Technique is not
just another method of relieving
tension and it is not a therapy. It
is a whole philosophy of movement and
co-ordination, undoing bad habits and
consciously re-educating the way we
use the body. (Ed., with much help
from Tessa Cawdron).
Sally Webster explains her experience:
I found myself searching for a
teacher of the Alexander Technique ten
years ago. As a practising artist my
work involves a lot of standing,
bending and heavy lifting and a lot of
attention. I was finding that after
as little as ten minutes in the
studio, my back was aching and burning
with pain between the shoulder
blades, impeding my concentration. In
addition, I had been diagnosed with
osteoporosis and was keen to minimise
the effects of the disease.
I had first become aware of
the Alexander Technique in the 60’s,
bought my first book on the subject
but not done anything about it. Having
grown very fast aged 13, I had already
developed a way of bracing my back
when standing by crossing my legs and
this habit I had continued to use all
my life. Small wonder my back was
hurting!
By chance a friend to whom I
had mentioned my search introduced me
to Tessa Cawdron, then teaching at
the Mere Practice, and thus began my
salvation.
After the first two lessons I
realised that this technique was no
therapy but more an armoury for
living, in far more ways than just
physically. I knew that over the
years I had developed habits to
compensate for my adolescent rapid
growth, the usual wear and tear of
motherhood and the long hours spent
standing at an easel or turning the
wheel of an etching press. I soon
learnt that the Alexander Technique is
one that re-educates the body. The
first stage is to change from the
habits of bad use acquired over the
years that cause an imbalance and
resultant pain. The second stage is to
establish habits of good use which
improve balance and release
unnecessary tension.
I have found learning the
Alexander Technique has not only
changed me physically so that I can
now stand for hours without pain; its
use has created mental space and
calm , and an enormous sense of
energy. It is an invaluable tool for
dealing with all stresses and strains
which mentally, emotionally and
physically confront us through life.
It goes without saying that, as with
everything, it is of great importance
to find a teacher who can communicate
clearly and simply.
ST. MARY’S GUILD
We are very pleased to have Mr Alan
Corkhill joining us on Tuesday 26th
September, 2.30pm at Cools Cottage.
In his talk ‘Beyond the Footlights’ he
will be reflecting on his working
life. We are assured of an
interesting hour or so - along with
the famous Gregg hospitality!!
On 24th September it is
Harvest Festival time. The service is
at 6pm, followed by our Harvest Supper
in the Village Hall. You can obtain
tickets @ £4 each from Christine
(830525) or Suzanne (830456). Do join
us for this lovely Festival. Our
Coffee Morning for CRISIS is at Church
Cottage on 28th November 10.30am to 12
noon. Please come and help us to make
this year our best ever. Christine

PARISH COUNCIL NEWS
The contract has been awarded for the
all-weather cricket surface in Knoyle
House Ground. This should be
completed by the late autumn. It
should give our cricketing fans an
early start for 2007. It is important
that the users of the cricket nets
show concern for the safety of others
in Knoyle House Ground and for
surrounding residents. Unfortunately,
that concern does not appear to have
been shown by those who have been
using the Ground for golf practice.
So can we just be clear here: Knoyle
House Ground is intended as a pleasure
ground, safe at any time for
everyone. Football on the pitch - OK;
cricket in the nets - OK; basket ball
near its net - OK; other games with
soft balls - OK; golf - nope! Anything
which might hurt anyone else - nope!
Motorbikes - absolutely not! Apart
from wild animals (which we can’t
stop) and guide dogs - no other
animals. The Council is also
concerned that the woodland between
the Windmill and the Dips at The Green
is being used for barbecues. A
fabulous spot, but the land is owned
by the Council and no permission
exists for these barbecues to take
place. It may not have been so
noticeable if you had taken your
rubbish home, but a large amount of
litter and scrapped barbecue parts are
spoiling the area. Ed.

WREN’S SHOP AND POST OFFICE
The shop is proving to be really
successful, with over £30,000 being
taken in the first 10 weeks. Thirty
nine volunteers have been trained and
more are coming forward, though more
are still needed. The success of the
shop is due to the work of the
volunteers and the support the village
is giving. Please continue to do so.
The more the village uses the shop,
the lower we can keep prices. We now
stock organic beef from Upper Leigh
Farm. Although the range of stock
continues to widen, the available
shelf space does not!
Janeen Evans, our
postmistress, has extended the hours
for the post office. It is now open
from 9am to
12 noon and 3pm to 4.30pm, Monday to
Friday. Outside those hours, the shop
stocks stamps.
The shop has a stock of wine
glasses and tumblers. These can be
borrowed free of charge when drink is
purchased from the shop. We can
supply the drink on a sale-or-return
basis.
A number of organisations
wishing to follow the same community
shop path have visited; it is clear
from their comments our village has
another thing to be very proud of.
The opening event with Terry
Pratchett was a wonderful afternoon.
A big ’Thank You’ to the Quilters for
the fabulous quilt which was won by
Jean and Denys Butler. We raised
almost £1400 from the raffle. The
McLaren Webster Partnership (Clouds
Estate) has made a substantial
donation. So many people have helped
us get to this point and we thank you
all. Laura Coffin
My First Term At Wren’s
Dear Aunt Asda,
Just a short note to let you
know how I am getting on at Wren’s.
On my first day I was handed my
uniform which is a deep red colour. I
must say it rather reminded me of your
favourite claret. And it has a
beautifully embroidered golden crest
on it. Then I met the Head Boy, Keith
and the two House Captains Laura and
Janeen. They helped me to settle in
with advice about personal hygiene
before handling food, how to lift
things properly and lots of other
exciting things.
Yesterday I had a lesson in
French cooking, I think it is called
cuisine de France, and I actually
baked croissants, petit pains and demi-
baguettes on my own. Tomorrow Senior
Prefect Janeen is going to help me do
Scandinavian cooking when we make
Danish pastries. What next? Indian
Curries, Italian pasta, who knows?
I have met loads of other
newcomers to Wren’s and we all agree
that we are on a steep learning curve
especially when it comes to SPATIAL
AWARENESS. Let me explain, Auntie.
Well, I have found out that
Cornflakes packets are bulky and not
at all heavy, though they do take up a
lot of shelf space, 2 litre Lemonade
bottles are heavy and “space
inefficient” and you can balance three
mustard jars on top of each other -
the list goes on. Senior Prefect
Laura is putting me in for a spatial
awareness and stock rotation module at
the end of my first term here, if
I “carry on making good progress.”
I was introduced to the Head
of Wren’s this morning. Dr. Epos
(Electronic Point Of Sale (the till)
does not have much to say and is
rather intimidating because he seems
to have all the answers. Some of us
become quite frozen with indecision
when we have any dealings with him.
He has the ability to chill the blood
when he utters an alarming beep and
declares that you have performed
an “INVALID TRANSACTION.” I must say,
though, that as we get to know him
better we are all becoming more
relaxed with him and finding out just
how jolly helpful he can be.
I have only been here for one
term and already I have made so many
new friends. We do chat a lot and
that’s how we find out what is going
on. Do you know, Auntie, I am
beginning to feel that I belong to
this place and this place belongs to
me.
Well, I must go now. I have
got a recycling lesson with Keith, our
Head Boy. I had no idea that so much
cardboard and plastic wrapping could
pile up at the back of a SHOP.
With love and chocolate
buttons, keeping up the family
traditions, Ekcsa Arkwright (alias
Alan Knight).
ST. MARY’S CHURCH
THE FÊTE - Once again everyone rose to
the occasion. Helped by the beautiful
setting of Knoyle Place and blessed by
a sunny afternoon, there was the usual
excellent attendance, including a good
number of new faces.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the
quiet meandering amongst the stalls
and games. The Dog Show drew a wide
variety of entries and provided much
hilarity for both the dog owners and
the casual dog lovers. Thank you to
everyone for your contributions great
and small - from cakes to lucky dip;
books to bric-a-brac; produce to the
tombola; teas to champagne; weight of
the cake to the music - something for
everyone and not forgetting the
setters-up, takers-down, washers-up,
fetchers and carriers. Especial thanks
to Julie Setford whose first time as
organiser in support of Simon Hunt
was, we hope, the first of many future
successes.
I nearly forgot! The Treasurer
counted in £3,527. After expenses,
the PCC's bank balance increased by
just over £3,200. WELL DONE to
everyone.
FAREWELL - after her long fight
against cancer, an absolutely full
Church paid tribute to Lettice Glen-
Coats. The village is poorer for her
loss and the Church will miss her for
her deep faith, for her support of our
activities as worshipper, service on
the PCC, Fête tombola, Dog Show judge
and as friend and benefactor.
SAILING TRIP - we hope that all those
from the Benefice who have gone with
Steve Morgan on the ketch "Morning
Star" over 15th/17th September will
have enjoyed crewing with him and have
all returned safely.
LAMMAS TIDE SERVICE - the 50 or so
members of the Benefice who came along
to Sweetwell Farm had an excellent
time enjoying the shade of the barn
from the baking sun. The scent of the
farm from freshly stacked straw, with
a hint of ‘you know what’, gave a real
meaning to the Service. There was an
amusing interruption to
John Reading's reading from the Old
Testament when one of the young cows
decided to Moo at an appropriate
moment. And surprise, surprise! The
hosts, the Drake family and their
helpers, provided a superb tea
afterwards. Thank you.
FUNDRAISING APPEAL - We repeat our
thanks for your generous support. We
are now meeting our target for 2006/07
but, due to our being unable to count
on one-off gifts in advance and the
loss of a major giver, we shall be
well short of our needs for 2007/08
and future years. If you have just
been thinking of giving, or have
simply forgotten about it, please do
something for us now. It is regular
income that we need
most, under
Gift Aid if possible!
MUSICAL EVENINGS - One way of helping
with funds and to enjoy yourselves at
the same time will be to come to the
Musical Evening on Saturday, 30th
September at 7.30pm in St Mary's
Church. Classical and light music will
be provided by Philip Blake and the
Child Okeford Consort. This promises
to be a high quality event, the
profits being shared between St Mary’s
and the RBL Poppy Appeal. Tickets at
£7.50 are available from Wren’s Shop
(830735) or from Simon Hunt (830242).
Another musical event is the Christmas
Concert by Yeovil Town Band in St
Mary’s on Saturday 9th December at
7.30pm. There will be a bar. Profits
will be shared between St Mary’s
Church and the Handicapped Club.
Tickets are £7 for adults and £3.50
for under 16’s, available from Wren’s
Shop.
CHURCH BUILDINGS - The PCC is
considering the erection of a Notice
Board near the lower church gates, the
cleaning of the East Window ( a
delicate operation) and a general re-
organisation within the Church. This
could involve renovation, re-siting
and/or replacing the organ; provision
of a proper office for the incumbent;
installing a lavatory; more flexible
use of the South or North aisles. The
underlying purpose of this activity is
to make the best use of the Church for
both Church and community purposes and
to generally bring it up to the modern
day without destroying its essential
beauty and sanctity. A tall and
expensive order but, without a
reasonably firm and costed vision, not
much will get done.
SINGERS (any standard) INVITED - Colin
Howard, formerly Director of Music at
Purcell School and conductor of the
Farrant singers, will be in charge of
choirs at Semley and East Knoyle in
the pre-Advent Season. Why not come
along to the practice sessions at
Semley on Fridays 3rd and 24th
November at 7pm and on Sunday 3rd
December at 2pm. Please call Tony
Thresh (830323) or Steve Morgan
(830174) for further details. The
emphasis will be on Carols.
HARVEST FESTIVAL - This will be held
at 6pm on Sunday 24th September,
followed by Harvest Supper at the
Village Hall. Tickets for the Supper
are available at £4 each from
Christine Wilson (830525) or Suzanne
Sandford (830456).
VACANCIES - At the time of writing, we
are still hoping for volunteers for
the post of Churchwarden and two
Deputies. We really ought to have
someone willing to take the burden off
Suzanne Sandford. Just a reminder -
the post of Churchwarden is a public
office and election is by the public,
not just the Church. Anyone who is
baptised and on the Electoral Roll of
St. Mary's may apply. Denys Butler
