paintings shown during February. The events diary is now at the

Tuesday 4 March
Historical Society
The new 2003 Season of Talks and Outings starts next month
at the Methodist Church Hall with a Talk on a subject which
affects all of us in this area:
“The Elham Valley:
its Nailbourne and its Water Supply”.
Many of use have suffered the effects, both directly and
indirectly of the floods two years ago and it seem probable that
these will occur again in the near future. Further,
developments in the area have begun to question the availability
of adequate water for our increasing personal, social and leisure
usages. We are most fortunate that Richard Monk, C.Eng.
MICE MIWEM, one-time Deputy Engineer and Manager of the
Folkestone and District Water Company, has agreed to address us on
this subject of most topical interest.
Visitors are welcome to attend at £2.00 per person. Lyminge
Historical Society meets on the first Tuesday in each month at the
Lyminge Methodist church Hall and visitors are always welcome.
Tea and coffee are available after each Meeting. Any
questions to Bob Gay on 862574.
Members who have not already paid are reminded that Annual
Subscriptions of £7.00 are due.

return and complete his itinerary. Until now, we have been
unable to make diaries coincide, so we are pleased to announce
that Martin Easdown will be presenting his “2nd
Talk” on “Britain’s Seaside Piers” at 7.45pm on

Hogben - A Plea
for Help!
I am very interested in Thomas Hogben (1703 -
1774), and would love to hear from anyone who can tell me
about him and his family. I know that he was a
schoolmaster, a surveyor, and a maker of maps and
sundials. He was born in Aldington, I believe, and
settled in Smarden; but knowing that Lyminge is very much
the home of the Hogbens, I thought that this was the best
place to ask. I am particularly keen to find out
about his father (also Thomas), - where and when he was
born and died, and whom he married. If anyone is
interested, I would be very glad to share the details I
have already been able to find out.

Lyminge Dramatic
Society
– A Chorus of Disapproval
Make a note in your diary that tickets will go on
sale on Saturday 15th March at Haxtons Estate
Agents in Lyminge for our next production, Alan
Ayckbourn’s “A Chorus of Disapproval.” The
production will run from Wednesday 2nd to
Saturday 5th April at Lyminge Village Hall and
Senior Citizens are invited free of charge to the dress
rehearsal on Tuesday 1st April. All
performances will commence at 7.45pm. Pete Raine will
direct this hilarious play, about a lonely widower who
joins a local operatic society. Don’t miss what promises
to be a memorable production.
Finally, don’t forget that the staging which the Society
has bought, will be a permanent feature at our
productions. The staging is used to create raised seating
for the rear 6 rows in the Hall and was voted a big
success at ‘Arabian Nights’. The Society was fortunate
to receive a generous grant from the Community Fund, South
East Office for the purchase of the staging.
LOST
– African Grey Parrot
“Squire”, a very tame, four year old African
Grey Parrot, with a red tail, has escaped from his home in
Postling. The Squire Family whose pet this is, fled
from Zimbabwe with their family pets so “Squire” has
great sentimental attachments; they are desperately upset
about his absence. Probably quite easy to recognise
if you come across him, he is also distinguished by his
wide vocal range and vocabulary – all in an African
accent! He also has a ring on his right leg.
If you have any news (good or bad), please ring Liz Squire
on 862381.

Gardening
Hints
The gardening years starts with a vengeance in March, but
the one task on most gardeners’ minds is the first cut of the
grass. NOT TOO SHORT is the advice – that goes for the
rest of the year too. Constantly scalping the lawn
encourages growth of weeds and moss, thus necessitating the
application of weed killer. Feed with an organic feed, leave
a little length on it, the healthy growth can then smother any
weeds and better withstand the threatened hot, dry summers that
are forecast.
