Parish Council Notes
The Parish Council met as usual in October and November. Meetings are now held in the rear lounge at the Village Hall to enable a hiring to take place in the main front Hall. Public and press are most welcome to attend—to access the meetings please come down the path to the right hand side of the building and this will take you into the rear lounge where meetings are now held. Cllr Ron Shepherd, who is the new Portfolio Holder at NELC for Safer and Stronger Communities was present at the November Council meeting to give an overview of the departments of the Council that he oversees. At the last two meetings, various planning applications were dis-cussed, and these are shown in the minutes of each meeting which are published on the Parish Council’s website. A new member was coopted in November, Mr. Ian Sears, who is welcomed onto the Council. There is still one vacancy on the Par-ish Council if any residents are interested. The recent Remembrance Day Service was very well attended and the members were pleased that so many people attended. Next year, the Parish Council is planning on a more formal ar-rangement and will let residents know the details during Summer and early Autumn of 2020. The Council will meet in December and then again in January 2020 to set its budget for the coming year of 20/21 and also the precept requirement for Stallingborough Village.

The men risked their lives and they are kind
They saved our country
I think they are stars’

‘Foxhills’, Station Road, Stallingborough.
To the many friends we have in the village.I know that most of you are aware of the difficult health issues that Mary and I are faced with at the moment. My walking problem has worsened significantly recently and the Vascular Dementia with which Mary has been diagnosed has come as a huge shock. Fortunately we are being well supported by our family and some excellent carers. Nevertheless, I am the ‘24 hours a day person’ responsible for her overall welfare and I must confess, having previously read accounts of spouses in similar situations, I never appreciated what an exhausting role it would be. I am having to take unhap-py decisions one of which has been to give up my village commitments. Also I have decided not to send out Christ-mas Cards this year but donate this money to a charity dear to my heart. I am thus using this article in the Newsletter to wish all our village friends ‘A Very Happy Christmas and ‘A Good New Year’. I hope the some of the true message of the birth of Jesus; love, hope, charity and neighbourliness shine through the glare and glitter of the materialistic occa-sion Christmas has become.
Love and best wishes.
John and Mary Taylor.

THE BARTON & CLEETHORPES COMMUNITY RAIL PARTNERSHIP (7)
Events The Santa Special Flyer is in this edition of the newsletter.
The event has been running successfully for some years now but this is the first time we have advertised it in the Stallingborough Newsletter.
A fun time is to had by all, so don’t miss out.
Sat 7th December, 10.15 at Stallingborough towards Cleethorpes, arriving back at 11.20.
News
There is good news and bad news in this edition.
The good news is that after December all Trans Pennine Express trains to and from Manchester Airport will call at Habrough. A spe-cific timetable with Stallingborough connections will be included in the next BCCRP article. Wi-Fi is available on TPE trains.
The bad news is that despite our stated aim of negotiating with the new train operator to ensure an improved service, at government level the Department of Transport intervened and insisted that the status quo should prevail.
In other words the “accessibility non compliant” one carriage trains will continue indefinitely having been given dispensation by the DfT.
To be fair to existing operator Northern, their strategy to improve much needed services across the entire region did not include the BC line, which in their view had been relinquished, as agreed before DfT intervention. We are stuck.

Hello Everyone I can’t believe that this will be the last newsletter of this year, where did 2019 go to?
On 19th September at our Harvest Supper 31 members and guests were entertained by Tony and John of ‘What no Amp?’ They sang all sorts of songs accompanying them-selves on their guitars and we joined in with some of the songs using the song sheets provided. It was a very enjoya-ble evening rounded off with an apple pie supper.
On Thursday 3rd October Alistair Scargall of Mushroom De-sign talked to us about his jewellery making. He makes nat-uralistic pieces all individually made and each one is sent to Sheffield to be assayed before he sells it. All the pieces were little works of art and several ladies bought items from him- I bought a spider brooch!
Our speaker for our November meeting should have been Sue Normandie talking about’100 years of Child Care’ but her home had been flooded during the torrential rain so she was unable to come. There was no time to organize another speaker so we had to spend the evening drinking tea, eating cake and talking, a real hardship!!
On November 10th , Remembrance Sunday, Jayne Saun-ders laid a wreath on behalf of W.I. at the War Memorial in the Community Garden.
At our meeting on December 5th we are going to be mak-ing small table decorations for Christmas. This will be fol-lowed by a faith supper.
