Village Hall.
Friday, 8th August – please note this Inn night has been changed
from Saturday, 9th August
Saturday, 18th September
Saturday, 22nd November
Saturday, 20th December
Quickline Broadband
Some of you may
have noticed that the village hall now has broadband; this was generously
donated by www.quickline.co.uk of
Hull. You may have also noticed that the connection speeds are much higher than
the current offering from BT allowing users to stream HDTV and movies. It is
also possible to migrate you phone to this service but retain you old BT
number. Quickline already had a number of satisfied customers in the village,
and so if you would like to see a demonstration of the connection speeds and
would like more information then Leanne Benfer will be at the first part of the
inn night on Friday 8th of August until 9PM.
Phil
Everingham oil club
If you live in the circulation area of
this newsletter and would like to be included in the oil club then please email
phil.cartwright1@btinternet . You will then receive an email when the next delivery is due. If you
require oil at that time then you will be advised of the chosen supplier for
that month, you should then make contact directly with the supplier to arrange
payment. Our normal delivery months are January, March, May, September &
November. From time to time interim deliveries may be arranged, however we
suggest that to get the best prices we should try and concentrate on these
planned dates.

Harswell flower festival.
Many thanks to everyone who helped at the Harswell flower
festival on the 13-15th June. Thank you very much to all those who
made cakes and served teas and also put up tents and took them down and carried
around tables and chairs. Special thanks to Helen Marsden and her
friends who made the church look fantastic and donated many of the flowers they
used and to Gill Hodgson who very generously provided flowers free of
charge. Grateful thanks to Tim Clappison for allowing us to put up tents
in his garden and use his utility room, water and toilet. Special
thanks also to Tom who spent many hours painting inside and outside the church
and tidying the churchyard including regravelling the path and cutting the
grass.

World Cup.
Without mentioning our team, hope you have enjoyed watching
the football on the big screen.
With regard to the sweepstake, some households are very much
in the running whilst others are on the flight home! Better luck in 2016 or
2018 or ----
Thank you anyway for entering into the spirit of it and
because of you the Village Hall fund is £80 better off and the finalists will
be £50 and £30 richer! I wonder who it will be?

Everingham Wind Farm
Everingham Carrs Wind Farm was registered as a company
in February of this year, backed by Whirlwind Renewables.
It has come to our knowledge that they are proposing a
large scale industrial energy development comprising of five turbines of a
height of 115m (377ft), to be located on land just to the south of Southfield
Lane. To put the size of these turbines
into context, Big Ben is 96m high and York Minster is 60m high. These would be similar in scale to the
largest onshore turbines in the county.
If other East Yorkshire villages’ experience is any guide, the first
five are likely to be followed by future applications to add additional
turbines.
The issue is not whether wind energy is good or bad,
but that this location appears to be wholly inappropriate for such a
large-scale wind farm.
As yet these proposals are not currently in the public
domain and have only come to light as the company had to conduct a pre-planning
consultation with Helen and Philip Guest because of the Hall's status as a
Grade 1 Listed building.
The neighbours of the houses closest to the proposed
development have met with Helen and Phil and are carefully assessing the
situation in detail.
If you have any comments or concerns please contact
Helen Guest.
