We finish our look back at life in Benwick during the first world war through the memoirs of Florence Sismey.

Germany admitted defeat on 11th November 1918. We were potato picking at the time and the foreman’s son was home, after being wounded. He went to the village and came back, bringing a great jug of beer, shouting “the war is over, peace is declared”. Needless to say the men were soon round the beer jug, and there was not much more work done that day – I think we all went wild.

A thanksgiving service was held in the Church and I asked another girl on the farm if she would go with me. We walked to Church through the fog and the first hymn was “Now thank we all our god”. I’ve never heard singing like that night in the Church before or since.

There were also many tears as we remembered the 33 young men we had lost from our little community. When we came out of Church we saw a great bonfire had been prepared and was speedily lit.

DURING THE WAR

It was spring 1919 when the Spanish Flu reached Benwick and lots of people in the village were very ill. One of the maids at the ‘Big House’ went home on her half-day and was taken ill after coming back that night. She was sent home again and died a day or two later. I caught it too, and I have heard my mother say that she sat at my bedside and heard the bell tolling for Rose’s funeral and thought I would be next – but Rose was the only fatality in the village. It was terrible time to go through, just when the war was finished, but happily it was over by the summer.

Food was still very scarce and inferior, so the national celebration day was fixed for July 19th 1919 – at least that was when we had ours. We had a church service, public lunch, sports for the children and a public tea for us all. We finished the day by riding the roundabouts at the Feast, which coincided with the day.We had a glorious time and I was finally walked home by the one who was to be my partner for almost fifty years.

This, then, is my account of life here during the war years. Not very exciting you will think – but very hard to live through, and I hope you will never have the same experience. •

YOUR BUGLEBen

The world is such a scary place.

I find it hardto look youin the face,

and say that“I'm afraid.

Please - hold me close.”

Words, like trainsgo rushing through

my head.Though I listenedcarefully, I didn't

understand,what was being said.Please - help me see.

When I feel afraid, I look for my safe place.

I spin my wheels. I turn around.

Sometimes it helpsme, I have found.

But there is no safer place

from harm, than in your arms.

Please - Hear my voice.

BENWICK IN BLOOM

by Pat Cuthbert

Benwick in Bloom Street Pride continue to litter pick through the village, helping to keep Benwick tidy.

Tubs and boxes were recently planted up with colourful Polyanthus, ready to welcome the Spring and have a little much needed colour in the dank and dismal days of winter.

BiB plans for summer planting to continue with the red, white and blue theme for tubs and boxes with

special centre pieces.

St Mary’s churchyard footprint will be re-seeded with wild flowers and Flanders Poppies.

To help boost much needed funds to buy plants Benwick in Bloom will have a special Easter raffle.

We will also attend Spring and Summer events to sell donated goods, as well as some car boot sales.

If anyone would like to spare the odd hour to help with planting etc then please contact Patricia on 01354 677048 •

The Children in class 4 at Benwick School have been working on improving their vocabulary, using powerful words to describe and language structures such as alliteration, similes, metaphors and personification.Here’s a selection of their work – “In My Dream”. •

IN MY DREAM

In my dream I saw a run down cottage,being demolished by the massive, menacing, malicious hurricanes.

In my dream I heard the snowstorm swirling like a washing machinemenacingly threatening to destroy anything in its path.

In my dream I saw the illuminated, dazzling, immense starsstare at me like cold cat’s eyes.

In my dream I saw monster’s scream with rageas they witnessed the humans torture their monster leader.

In my dreams I heard the sapphire coloured sea pounce on a naïve, oblivious wave riderzooming towards the golden, sandy beach.

In my dream I saw a potrunning like the wind towards the racing, rummaging ruler and rubbers.

By Ryan (year 6)

In my dream I saw a dull, dirty, disgusting mucky pigwho was like a dirt machine rolling in mud.

In my dream I heard a clear white see-through seagullgliding like a luxury, posh plane, roar as loud as a lion.

In my dream I saw a coconut, chest-nut bullraging like a sports car through the narrow, cramped room.

In my dream I saw a lovely, multi-coloured unicorndancing gracefully like an elegant, sophisticated ballerina.

In my dream I saw the red-faced sun walk over the hard, hot horizon like an explorer searching for gold.

Over the last year, Parish Councils, community groups and residents have saved thousands of pounds on the cost of paint thanks to Cambridgeshire Community Reuse and Recycling Network – CCORRN, a local community organisation based in March, Cambridgeshire who run the Cambridgeshire Community RePaint Scheme.

The Community Repaint scheme is run by a small team of staff and volunteers who collect, sort, test and redistribute low cost paint under contract to AmeyCespa on behalf of Cambridgeshire County Council.

It is because of this contract that CCORRN is able to offer low cost paint to over 80 community groups and Parish Councils. On average, paint is £1 a litre and slightly more for bespoke or specialist paint products.

Even better is that CCORRN holds a monthly draw to give away FREE paint to community groups who are looking to improve their local environment and facilities.

The scheme has given away nearly

BRIGHTER PARISHES

3,000 litres and distributed nearly 19,000 litres of paint over the last year; ensuring the paint was used rather than being landfilled.

The whole community benefits from improved street furniture, village halls are more hireable if they’re kept in good repair and homeowners find maintaining the appearance of their homes is considerably cheaper too.

Anyone can become a member of the CCORRN Community RePaint Scheme and benefit from the great value paint range on offer.

All manner of paint is available including exterior masonry paints, extra durable emulsions for hard wearing interior walls, glosses and woodcare too.

Cambridgeshire Community RePaint is part of a network of more than 70 similar organisations across the UK.

You can visit CCORRN’s Community Reuse Centre at: Unit 3 Commercial Road, March, PE15 8QP Monday to Saturday 10am - 4pm and at other times by appointment.

If you would like more information, telephone: 01354 607667 or email [email protected] or visit the website www.ccorrn.org.uk to find out more.•

The Sweetpeas understand that I have to work in order for us to be able to have food on the table, get new clothes and buy toys. I want them to be able to see that money doesn’t grow on trees and that a job will be needed one day.

“I’m going to be a pilot” said Harvey.A great choice from even though he has never been on a plane.

Other than her intention of being The Queen one day, Alyssa has the idea of being a bank cashier. Like me. I’d love to take her to work with me one day just to see how well she would cope. I fear though that they may sack this Mummy and employ the younger model! Growing up and getting a job sounded so much more fun when I was at school. Mind you, I do like stamping. This was the reason I work where I do.

I remember going to visit my aunt in the bank and loving how they all wore smart uniforms with their names on them. They had loads of different stamps with ink pads and it would make that really loud “Clunk Clunk” noise. It was amazing!

SWEETPEAS AND MEby Emily Shepperson

Unfortunately we don’t have many different stamps like we did when I first started. It may be that when the Sweetpeas leave school they will have “flying car technician” or “holi-day rep on Mars” as some of their options.

Harvey may not be a pilot and per-haps will be just controlling a pilot-less plane via remote control. Now there’s a worrying thought. •

Every Thursday in March at 7pm in the Church room of the Village Hall I will be running an interesting course which looks at the classic movie Casablanca.

Each week we will look at a short clip and talk about the things which come out of it. I hope it will arouse interest in people who usually do not associ-ate Christianity with the movies and it would be great to see as many people attending as possible.

Nothing is required to attend – just come along and see what you think. It might be an eye opener!
