RURAL JUSTICE
A man was in court in the backblocks of Queensland charged with cattle duffing - taking somebody else’s unbranded cattle and whacking his own brand on them. The jury consisted of local farmers who had all done a bit of duffing in their time, and the accused was a drinking mate from the Linga-Longa Pub. So when the judge sent them off to consider the verdict, their deliberations took about five minutes flat. The clerk of the court said, “Have you reached a verdict?” “Yeah,” said the foreman of the jury. “Do you find the defendant guilty or not guilty?” “We reckon he’s not guilty, but he’s got to give the cattle back.” The judge was infuriated and started banging away with his gavel. “You cannot reach a verdict with such conditions attached! The man is either guilty or not guilty. Now go away and reconsider your verdict.” The jury shuffled grumpily out of the court, only to return seconds later. “Well,” said the judge. “How do you find?” “We find him not guilty, and he can keep the flamin’ cattle!”
TRAVELLERS TALES (27)
(Andrew Neaum 2000)
After visiting the shrine at Walsingham we wandered about the village, popping into shops. In the old tradition local entrepreneurs do all they can to fleece the gullible pilgrims who so conveniently flood their town. There are all sorts of little shops selling items designed to appeal to pilgrims. We also looked over the little Greek Orthodox church. With its iconostasis, white washed walls, arches, icons and dim religious light we felt we could easily have been on a tiny Greek island. Attached to it is an icon writing school. The air as we walked around was full of almost invisible little corn bugs or thunder bugs. They seem to have no wings, but are too small for me to be certain of this, if so then they must simply drift invisibly in the breeze and land on you to wriggle around and faintly itch. Apparently they come from ripe corn and disappear once it has all been reaped.
Church of England smell
After an interesting afternoon we headed back to the vicarage in South Creake and Andrew Thompson took Margaret and me to see Sculthorpe Church, the favourite of his charges. It proved to be another big towered church, restored successfully from near ruin in Victorian times. It is lovely inside, with the authentic Church of England smell, a pleasing blend of polish, old hassocks, dust, candles, mould and dampness. The church has a set of six bells and these were being practised badly as we looked the church over, indeed the bells were the reason for our visit, because we had taken over one of Andrew’s sons and his friend for bell practice.
Siphoned off by the bishop
The children ate supper before we did, the four adults eating together without them and sharing a bottle of vhino verde won in a raffle. It was good to taste Portuguese wine again, it brought back all the holidays spent in Mocambique as a child and young man. The meal was an unexotic concoction of pre-cooked potato lumps, partly bound together with beaten egg, laced with diced frankfurter, baked and served with a simple salad. I was hungry and found it surprisingly tasty. As we ate we chatted about old times in Rhodesia. Phillipa, Andrew’s sister, and her husband are still in Zimbabwe. They have no children, nor do they want them, but have been adopted by two teenage children from an unhappy family. Almost no white folk now go to my first parish church, All Saints’ Kadoma, which Andrew Thompson inherited from me. The black rector, a man who once wrote me a begging letter to which I did not reply, has been so unpopular that few can face him. He was sacked by his bishop, but when we were at the Thompsons had so far refused to move! The John Mack Trust money, which when I was Rector had made the parish a very rich one, and which came from a share in a local gold mine bequeathed for the sole use of the parish continues to brings in an income, but it is all siphoned off by the Bishop!
Knapped flints not spears
It was good to renew our acquaintance with the Thomsons, I wrote the journal upon which these Travellers Tales are based next morning with the summer sun shining in through the upstairs bedroom window that looked out over a field of ripe wheat. The ubiquitous wood pigeons called and called. My early morning walk round the village had revealed an unremarkable, narrow main street, busy with passing traffic. The single back street however, is very lovely and quiet, its flint stone houses beautiful, their windows, doors and often the corners too, red brick lined. Modern houses are often built in the same style, though their flints are usually round pebbles or stones, not split ones, which gives them away as modern. Nor are they as pleasing to the eye. The more pleasing ancient flint stones are known as knapped flints, that is, split flints, a round hard white stone which, when split, is almost black and glassy inside. The same use of the word as in the old prayer book psalm “he knappeth the spear in sunder.”
I went to say Mattins with Andrew in South Creake church, another huge building with a slightly dank and dilapidated air to it and with white wash flaked, ancient woodwork which with all its medieval paint scraped off looks bleached and scabrous. However it is still a lovely and impressive church. In the visitors book there was a big bold black entry which read simply “Charles”. It is Prince Charles’s signature. He brings round friends to local churches when he is staying at Sandringham, which is only ten miles away. If it were my visitors’ book I would have written after it, “Charles who?” There is someone resident in the district who is connected with a music school and so the church is used every year as the venue for an opera. Last year the opera was one by Rameau, which I would have loved to see and hear, it meant though that, as with York Minster, I found myself in a church filled with staging.
A pleasingly primitive notion
After breakfast and photographs we got away after 10.00am and pottered gently to Norwich, stopping at Fakenham to get something to drink because the South Creake water in our bottles was nasty. We intended, on Andrew Thomson’s advice, to use the park-and-ride facilities to get in to Norwich, but I missed the signs and so we found ourselves right in the centre of the town. As we managed to find a car park very near the cathedral this proved to be a good thing. The Cathedral proved to be as impressive and lovely as any we had seen. Although a lot of it appears to be Norman, it isn’t as heavy and bulky seeming as are many Norman buildings, on the contrary it appeared very light and clean, not at all squat or barbaric, perhaps because it took a long time to finish and so spans both Norman and Gothic styles. From heavy bases the columns soar up to lovely ceiling vaulting with interesting bosses illustrating biblical stories. The view from the door up to the choir and east end is incomparable, and best of all there were nowhere near as many tourists as at either York or Durham. A most interesting little feature is a reliquary beneath the bishop’s throne. It is now of course empty of relics, but it has a vent to allow emanations and exhalations from the relics up to the bishop’s seat which were thought to help make him wise and holy in his decision making! A pleasingly primitive notion. The cathedral Close is also very lovely. We bought two pies for the girls and sandwiches for Margaret and myself and ate them on the lawn in the Close. We also purchased several little items in the Cathedral shop, and then found our way out of Norwich easily enough, passing through Wroxham, a centre for boating on the Broads and from where we phoned to let friends living in Happisburgh (pronounced Hazeborough) know we were on our way. These friends date from our years on the Island of St Helena.
Unexpected connections
We arrived at around half past four. The pub “Pebbles”, owned by our friends, is a little eighteenth century building, much altered over the years. It is on the main street of the village which comprises a few homes and holiday cottages and not much else, as well as an impressive, medieval, flintstone church. This church we later discovered from my father used once to be the church of a certain Fr Mellor, who in my father’s youth was a great mentor and friend and so my father was very familiar with both the Church and district.
Our friends Tony and Enid Irons seemed little changed since St Helena days. Tony has had a brush with angina and an operation to clear an artery, but they are gym frequenters and dieters and continue to holiday in exotic places, thoroughgoing and happy hedonists. They were in the middle of negotiations to sell the pub, and were about to do so, hopefully at great profit. After a cup of tea with them we deposited our stuff in the pleasingly old fashioned pub rooms upstairs and then went for a walk round the village. We looked over the church which is at the end of a short and prettily housed little street. It stands on a slight hill and so is very prominent in the flat Norfolk country-side. It was clean and appeared to be the centre of a thriving parish and to have a choir. Its history was displayed very clearly and concisely on four laminated sheets. The name “Happisburgh” derives from “Hape’s borough” in pre-Norman times. We then walked past another pub, near the church, and a caravan park, then across a field to the beach, making our way down the not very high cliff by way of the lifeboat slip. The beach is unremarkable and full of groins and protective barriers that attempt to keep the sea from eating in to the earth cliffs. Several houses appeared to be in grave danger of disappearance.
Stuffed bass and samphire
We made our way back to our pub, amusing ourselves by kicking pebbles and then after a bath and the news on Television we went downstairs well refreshed to have a drink with the Irons and much animated talk, a lot of it reminiscing about St Helena. Enid returned to the island with a view to them buying a house and settling there. She said that quite a few of the islanders have built self-catering flats on to their houses to accommodate visitors like her, and that she stayed in one belonging to church folk we remembered well, Arnold and Patsy Flagg. She feels that satellite television and videos have further sapped the quality of life of the island and informed us that one of the island’s more interesting and dynamic residents, whom we knew well, had now moved in to Jamestown and did nothing except sit and watch videos, a sedentary slob. Having looked over some available and excellent houses she ultimately decided against going back. After our drink we moved to the dining room and ordered a most tasty meal. Wisely, they have made their hotel one that caters for the middle class and middle aged, specialising in food rather than the bar. I had sea bass stuffed with prawns on a bed of garlicky and buttered samphire, a local delicacy that is a variety of seaweed, dark green, segmented and with branched stalks. It is like asparagus in texture, but has a flavour all its own. It was very tasty, though oddly the fish skin was unscaled and so had to be discarded, to my regret. The girls had a large vegetable lasagne and Margaret a nut roast, this too was delicious, I know this, because her portion was too large for her and so I had some of it. Tony had a pork and apple curry and Enid the same as me. This was accompanied by a bottle of Portuguese vhino verde. For sweet Lil had treacle tart, I and the Irons a large banana split, Margaret a lemon tart and Rachel a huge chocolate sundae. To finish it all off satisfactorily I had an eighteen year old single malt whisky which, to my philistine palate, tasted little different from any other whisky I have drunk. Their daughter Joanne did the cooking and there were a fair number of other guests. They bought the place as a very run down and ancient building that was unoccupied and not a pub at all. They turned it in to a pub themselves changing the original old building radically. It has no foundations and tends to move with fluctuations in the soil’s dampness. We arranged to serve ourselves an early breakfast of cereal, sacrificing bacon and eggs for an early start and so said our farewells and went off to bed. (to be continued)

CHRISTMAS CAKES
Those truly devastated by drought face bills and mortgages almost beyond comprehension and assistance to alleviate such devastation is beyond almost anyone’s capacity. However we can show that we care and are thinking of such folk. Your Parish Councillors considered this at their last meeting and decided that a Christmas Cake delivered personally by the clergy to the drought affected on our roll to show our care and thoughts might be a worthwhile gesture. Would anyone prepared to make a decent cake put their name on the list in the narthex and if there are enough we will go ahead and give more details.
TEA WITH HYACINTH
The Parish of Wangaratta West are organising a fund raiser for Anglicare to continue the work being done with the drought and bushfire affected communities in our region. It is to be a "Keeping Up Appearances" High Tea (as distinct from a candle-lit supper) with Mrs Hyacinth Bouquet and company, including Onslow and Daisy etc, all played by the Wangaratta Players. on Sunday,11th November at 2.00pm, ( the day after our Fair!) Heather Pearson will be attending and wonders if others would like to join her in making up a table. The cost is $10.00 per person. Speak to Heather: 58211983.
ART SHOW IN HALL (ANGLICARE)
On Tues, Oct 30th, from 1.00pm - 8.00pm, there is a display of Art by children in our Hall featuring their response to fire and drought. Do come along and view it.
GARDEN MATTERS
Our front lawns have been declared “Public” as indeed they are and so rate somewhat better sprinkling times . Please note that there is no garden committee meeting on 2nd but do still come along to the working bee on Saturday 3rd 8.30am. Barbara Whyte
BAPTISM SPONSORS
Congregational Baptism Sponsors are hard to find. We are revising their tasks to exclude visiting and also attendance at Preparation Sessions. So the task is a welcoming one at Children’s Church and the Baptism Service. Further details later, and in the meantime if asked to participate please do so, if possible.
MISSION BOXES
Mission boxes are now due to be returned to the office, any donations also gratefully received. Nola Brewer
