Three views of Willingham \
The past - a Mystery Lady
Do you know who this is? The equipment she is usingmight give some of our senior readers a bit of a clue.
Her identity is revealed on page 7.
The present - the beauty of nature"Spring Watch" may not be so well off for barn owls
this year; but here is a picture of a resident barn owl
taken by one of our residents.
The present - the harsh realityVandalism in the village — an extract from the
report by the Parish Council
Unfortunately the main Council news this month is
about a spate of vandalism which has been afflictingthe Recreation Ground and Ploughman Hall.
Recreation Ground fences and gates have been
destroyed, the. Ploughman Hall waste bins have
been burnt out (causing some damage also to the
Hall Windows), graffiti have been sprayed, and
vandals even got into the Pavilion. Not only does
this harm amenities which are there for the entire
village, but it is a cost on your money. The Council's
insurance will rise if we have to keep claiming on it;and in any case the insurers impose an excess which
will be applied to each claim for every act of
vandalism. This comes out of the Precept, which at
the end of the day is money every Council Tax payercontributes to the upkeep of village amenities. In
addition, the Council has only recently paid a
significant sum of money to buy replacement litter
and dog waste bins which continue to be vandalised
all over the Village.The police are doing their best to provide a high-
visibility presence in the areas of the village where the
vandalism is most prevalent, but they can't be
everywhere all the time. So — if you see an act of
vandalism taking place, or even if you come across
something which has already been vandalised,'pleasedo report it to the police. as soon as possible. For all
our sakes it is vital that this trend is stopped as soon as
possible.

From the Parish Council
And more on dog waste binsThe Parish Council has had a number of complaints about
dog waste being left on the pavement and footpaths. This isa plea to all dog-owners, please, not to let your dogs foul any
place where other people have to walk, and to use the dogwaste bins provided for the purpose of disposing of such
waste. Besides being unsanitary and potentially dangerous(Parvo Disease is carried in dog faeces and can
cause a related illness in children, sometimes
with serious complications), letting your dogfoul the pavement or footway is an offence, forwhich there is a fine.
New CommitteesThe Parish Council has now elected its new Committees.The Chairmen and Vice-Chairmen respectively are:
Cemetery Committee: John Anderson and RayManningGreen and Boundaries Committee: Bill. Kirkmanand Andrew Cook
Leisure and Amenities Committee: David Grangerand Jim Watson
Planning Committee: Phil King and John AndersonPublic ,Hall Committee: Rosemary Mumford andJim Watson
The Finance and General Purposes Committee ischaired and vice-chaired by the Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Council, Pat Daniels and Phil King.
Most of these Committees have already had their first
meetings, and started to carry forward work outstandingfrom last year.
'
Photocopier looking for a good home ,
y_
The Parish Council has recently replaced its
photocopier, and is looking for a good home to
give the old one to. It is a fairly basic model —
J? does single-sided copies (but can be persuadedto do double-sided by mechanical means!). It is2ft x 18 inches x 18 inches, and comes with a
slightly larger cupboard base. This is free to any villagevoluntary organisation who can come and collect it, first-
come, first—served. Contact the Clerk if you are interested.
Roadside hedgesHouseholders are reminded that it is the responsibility of
anyone with a hedge at the front of their garden to ensure
that motorists' visibility is not restricted (including at road
junctions and across bends), and that the movement of
pedestrians, cycles or vehicles is not hindered by hedgegrowth. In legal terms, no roadside hedge or tree should
overgrow such that it extends forward of the established
Highway Boundary. Verges are considered part of the
public highway and so verges should not be obstructedeither. For safety reasons, roadside hedges are the
exception to the rule that no hedge-cutting should take
place during the bird—nesting season.
Funding surgeriesSouth Cambridgeshire District Council and the South
Cambridgeshire Council for Voluntary Services are holdinga series of funding surgeries across the District. In Julythere will be surgeries in:
4 July - Haslingfield Village Hall20 July - Papworth Village Hall
31 July - Sawston — venue to be confirmed
All are walk-in sessions, running from 10 am to 3 pm,where people can find out about available grants, receiveinformation on becoming a charity, find out about theroles and responsibilities of trustees, or ask other
questions about managing and running a voluntaryorgani'satibn.
Station Road ditchThe District Council have asked that we publicise that in
July they will be cleaning out the ditch along Station Road.This ditch has become increasingly silted, to the pointwhere it no longer does its job of draining the surroundingland. They will need to remove 3-6 inches of silt, which willhave to be piled up on the banks (where most of it fell infrom in the first place). This work will not be done untilafter the nesting season.
Golf on the Recreation GroundPlease be aware that it is not permitted to
play, or practice, golf on the Recreation
Ground. Golf balls are dangerous missiles in
areas open to the general public, and theParish Council has had several complaintsrecently about people and property being putat risk by golf balls being hit around on the Rec.
July Parish Council meetingThe June Parish Council meeting will be on Wednesday5 July at 7 30 pm, in Willingham School. As usual, the
agenda will be posted on Friday 30 June on the VillageNotice Board outside the Public Hall, and in the Library;and there will be a slot in the meeting for members of the
public to address the Council on any matters (whether on
the agenda or not) which concern them.

District Council Report
South Cambridgeshire District Council has the
responsibility for planning decisions for the local area.
This not only means deciding on granting permission for
new houses and extensions but also longer term
planning for .the whole area. This is called the Local
Development Framework or LDF and the finishingtouches to this have been made over the last year. This
includes deciding where the houses that the Government
says must be built in the area should actually go.
To Willingham the biggest part of this scheme will
be Northstowe, the. new town to built near
Longstanton and Oakington bordered by the old
railway line. The old line will be the Guided Bus route
which is the responsibility of the County Council but is
crucial to the development of the new town. The
District Council had three real choices over the
Northstowe site. To limit the town as much as possibleby building only on the old airfield and golf club site,called Option A. To add on land to the other side of the
road as well, option B, making the town 1000 houses
bigger. Or finally Option C which would have seen the
biggest town of all by including about 600 acres of
land on Willingham side of the railway line. The
Council chose option A, the smallest possible, but
when finished in 20 years time it will still be the
biggest town in Cambridgeshire after Cambridge City.The whole LDF recommendations including
Northstowe can be viewed on the Council's Website.
The final decision is now being taken by a Government
Inspector whose report should be made by Christmas.
Because Willingham and Over now elect 3
Councillors to serve the two Villages there is an
election in every year when the County Council is
included. There is a suggestion that this should be
changed so that all three Councillors and the Parish
Council should be elected at the same time. Your three
District Councillors support this as it would save
£80,000 and we hope lead to a bigger turnout on
polling day. This year saw Councillor Corney re—
elected, next year Councillor Burling will stand for re-
election and Councillor Manning in 2008. It is
assumed that it will take that long to change the
system as the Government has to approve it.
This year saw another difficult year for the Council as
we were "capped" by the Government and so could not
raise the Council tax. The Council is actually spendingmore than it raises and has done so for many years. In
the past this was because the Council had such big cash
reserves that it was ordered to reduce them. This was
carried on for too long and now we face difficulties.
South Cambridgeshire remains in the lowest 10% of
English Councils for spending and a Band D taxpayer
pays £98 per year, but the Council spends £140. This
means that the Council must continue to make cuts and
become even more efficient to balance the books over
the next 4 years. This process has begun by reducing the
number of Senior Officers and making drastic changesto the management structure to try and save £550,000over the next 4 years without affecting services.
There are problems with increasing numbers of
Travellers setting up unauthorised encampments in the
area and putting a strain on the local resources. It is
really only happening in the area of Milton to
Sanesey, while Willingham and Cottenham have the
biggest problem at the moment. There have alwaysbeen Travellers camped in the area and these 10calTravellers who have lived here for generations are
being forced out by the influx, often from Ireland. We
need help from government legislation to restrict the
numbers in the "hot spots" thus protecting the locals,while providing space in the wider area of the Eastern
Counties for those with no real local connection. The
Council continues to try and do the best for the best for
everyone by enforcing planning laws equally andlfairly.I hope that Willingham remains a very attractive
place to live. If we Councillors can improve the front
line services, ie refuse collection, street cleaning and
the things that really affect peoples' lives, while
reducing the costs, it will be even better in the future.
If you need to contact anyone of us the details are
published in the Village Directory in this magazine.

Repeat prescriptionsIn the pharmacy we are experiencing an increasingnumber of patients running out of their repeatmedication. Please note that we are unable to hand out
prescription-only medicines without a valid Doctor's
prescription and therefore we cannot simply hand the
tablets over. We will endeavour to sort out genuineemergencies but you may be asked to call back. The
statutory order time for repeat prescriptions is two
working days.: Please refer to your repeat
request form when ordering and
g
_ remember that you will need to see a
55 Doctor during your birthday month
for a drug review to update your
repeat list. You will receive a letter from the surgery
reminding you to attend and advising if you need
blood tests prior to your drug review appointment.Finally, you should only need to place an order for
repeats once a month even though the quantities you
have may not tally. Please place your order in plenty of
time especially when a bank holiday is due. Thank you
for your help.

Appointments .
We often have requests from patients turning up at
the surgery and asking "Can you please just fit me in.
It won't take a moment." We regret that we are unable
to do that as it is unfair to those patients who alreadyhave appointments which will then run late. If youfeel that you need to see a doctor that day you will be
given the first available free space that morning or
asked to return for the emergency appointments at
the end of the morning between 11 45 am and 12 15 pmwhen you will be seen in turn by the duty doctor or
doctors that day. In the event of a genuine emergencysituation you will of course receive attention as soon
as possible.Late arrival
If you arrive more than 20 minutes late WE: ff!1for your appointment and other g. "179:;patients have arrived for appointments ""052§;at that time, in fairness to those other 7" L.
patients you may be asked to wait until Viki}Mthe doctor or nurse can see you later.
Verbal abuse to staff
May we remind you that the NHS has a Zero Tolerance
Policy towards abuse to staff which we as a practiceuphold. Please do not take out your anger and
frustration on our staffwhen you are not happy and we
respectfully ask you not to use bad language in the
surgery or on the telephone. You may ask to speak to

.'Maior Notice to all Cambridge Evening News "Direct" customers
As many of you are already aware, the Property Scene magazine that accompanies Thursday evenings' papers
is proving difficult to deliver on a bike due to the weight and quantity and the distance covered.
It is the responsibility of the regular paperboys/girls to find our own relief cover during our annual summer
holidays. This can be a problem during the school holidays that has now been exaggerated with the addition
of the property magazine.As no suitable solution has been found, to ensure the delivery of the evening paper itself we regret that you
may not receive Property Scene on some occasions. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone
for your understanding over previous weeks, and to apologise for the inconvenience.
If you are aged 13 or over and would like to undertake occasional relief rounds on a casual
basis (sometimes just an odd day, sometimes 2 weeks and with the option to say "No") pleasering 01954 261309.
From your Cambridge Evening News "Direct"deliverers Luke, Josh, Adam, Jonny, Frank, Jack,Rebecca and Michael.

Churches Together prayingfor the people of
Willingham and RamptonIn the second full week in eachmonth the Churches in Willinghamand Rampton will be praying for the
people who live in a particular area
of the village. In July this is
Berrycroft, Elm Way, Thodays Close,Newington.
Willingham Parish Magazine
How many times have you driven into or out of
a town and seen a sign saying: 'This town is
twinned with ...' andlwondered what on earth
that actually means to the people living in that town?
Well this could be your chance to find out.
The Fen Edge villages of Cottenham, Landbeach,Waterbeach, Rampton and Willingham are twinned
with a French town called Avrille. Avrille is a small
town close to Angers and south of Le Mans (famous for
the 24 hour car race), situated between the Brittanyregion and Loire Valley area in France.
The association has been running for about 8 years
now and we have a good number of members.
However there is always room for more people to joinand become involved. We have 'a real mixture of
members so whether you are single, a couple, a family,young, old, new to the villages or a born and bred local
you will find this an interesting group.
The twinning association arrange and take part in
annual visits with members of the Avrille group. Once
every two years we go to visit them and then in the
alternate year members from France come to visit us here.
These exchanges take place over a weekend, usuallyone of the May bank holidays. Various group activities
are planned for the visits giving you a good chance to
meet others in the group, both from France and the
other villages.Next year the French group will be coming to
England and we would be delighted to hear from anyone
interested in hosting one or more of our French visitors.
This is a real chance to visit real people not like beingon holiday and staying somewhere as a btourist. You get to stay with a familyand really see what it's like.
How's your French?
Are you interested in finding out how the French
live, or
Seeing from the inside by staying with a French
family in their home;Having a French family to stay with you;
A chance to practice your French or a reason to
learn a new language.It can lead to new friendships and a reason for extra
visits to Avrille to visit your French family — we tied in
a visit on our way home from our main summer
holiday this year. The area around Avrille is well worth
a visit — not far from the chateaux of the Loire and the
Brittany coast is also within reach.
July 2006
The Fen Edge Twinning Association
Whether you are single, a couple or a family there are
always different combinations of people coming. So, if
you are concerned about putting up a whole family,don't worry as there are groups of all ages and sizes
needing somewhere to stay when they visit England.You don't have to be able to speak French, but an
interest in France and French is useful.
There are always French families needing hosts
when they come to visit EnglandIf you are interested or would like to find out more
please contact either Anna Vining on 01954 252432
