WINTER CHEER
AS the nights close in, so the pleasures of
winter come into focus. The Scouts’ annual p20 p28
bonfire and fireworks spectacular takes
place on Saturday 6th November. The round
of Christmas fairs begins this month and the
big light switch on takes place in Tarporley
on 3rd December.
This month we’ve got some pictures of old
Tarporley, reading awards in Tattenhall, the
Tarvin Eco Fair and the new uniform at the p33 p40
high school.
There’s also parish council news, gardening,
health and beauty, a what’s on guide and
village index.
As usual, please support your local
businesses and don’t forget to tell them that

Since the promotion to Division 1 of the Cheshire League Tarporley Vics have been
producing a match day programme for all home games.
Whilst the modest four page programme is intended to give our regular home
supporters information on the Vics progress and upcoming fixtures it has now become
a “collectors item” with “Ground Hoppers” making a bee-line to Tattenhall to pick
up a copy. Ground Hoppers are groups of football supporters who travel the country
watching amateur football. To date, Tarporley has been hosts to groups from as far
away as Oxford and Lytham St Anne’s and once reports of a programme hit the internet,
our secretary has been inundated with requests concerning our next home fixtures and
the availability of programmes.

Gardening by Janet Heath
The turf will rot down over winter and provide good soil for plant roots. Add a layer of well rotted manure
5 to 8 cms deep on top of the roughly dug soil and leave over winter. If you have clay soil, the action of
frost and the manure will break it down by spring. The manure will add humus to the soil which acts as a
sponge, allows roots to grow more easily and enables plants to take up nutrients.
