MAIDSTONE STROKE GROUP

SEPTEMBER NEWSLETTER 2021

AT LAST

OUR DOG AND DUCK TRIP

We had waited some 18 months for this day to happen, and on the 18th August it did. Back in 2019 we were awarded a lottery community grant fund which I applied for and we got, this come with certain criteria and conditions which our group meet. We had to state what the money would be used for and how our group would benefit from the grant, this we did and decided the next trip to the dog and duck would be good, the lottery fund agreed and wanted photos of the event when it took place, which is why you were asked to dance waving the community funds flags. Some 38 people attended the dog and duck some by coach and some by their own cars, as far as I am aware everyone enjoyed the day with excellent food and our old friend Geoff Stevens providing the entertainment. We had invited Deal and Distict stroke group and a few were able to attend also invited a few from Kings Lodge in Maidstone which is where one of our members live June Dines who has a carer name Diane Simmonds and a couple were able to attend from their, so shows our group is very inclusive. It was very good to see lots of you getting up and enjoying yourselves, and what can I say about Junes carer Diane what a breath of fresh air taking photos of every one and getting people up to dance even June, In my opinion reminded me of our Ann ( matron ) and how ann used to be, it was excellent to see and hope we can get Diane involved more somehow in our group. I think an excellent day and a huge thank you to John as allways and also The lottery community fund for the grant that contibuted to our outing and maybe we can try again at a latter date. We now have our next outing booked to Brick lane in feb 2022 so if your not booked see John and get your name down before its to late.

[mostly-history]

From “Our Street: East End Life in the Second World War”:

...I was surprised yet again – this time when reading through the local east London newspapers that were being published little more than a month before war was declared.  I had not expected to see how 'ordinary' much of the news coverage seemed to be, and how nonchalant were the references to what was brewing across the Channel – despite the ever-increasing possibility of war breaking out. Headlines concerned themselves with Stepney council's response to the district auditor, who had criticized the inappropriate use of the mayoral car and an expensive claim that had been put in for a trip to Paris.  It wasn't until page 5 that there was any mention of matters that would prove to have such a profound impact on the year's entire population for the next six years.

This was in a report on arrangements for shelters.  Stepney Borough Council's ARP Committee had discussed the matter, but they were not exactly cracking on with the arrangements, and overall there was no particular sense of urgency.

Whether or not the lightness of tone in the papers was adopted or imposed as a matter of national policy, it reads today as being either remarkably composed or incredibly gung-ho.

By the following week, there was, almost incidentally, a little piece announcing, 'Black out.  Lights go out at 12.30 a.m. next Thursday morning.  The streets of Poplar and Stepney will be darker than they have been since the war...' – the 'war', of course, being a reference to 1914-18.  But inside the same edition is a far bigger piece, accompanied by a large map, showing Bank Holiday tours of Kent and East Sussex as recommended by the Automobile Association, and an item celebrating the joys of a Belgian camping holiday to be enjoyed by 500 lucky East End children.  The choice of venue might, with hindsight, seem a little curious, not to say positively dangerous.

News of the council's progress regarding shelters was slipped in between stories about IRA threats to the mainland, supplies of continental sugar candy to be found in the West India Dock, the dental care of Bethnal Green toddlers and personal ads offering the services of 'psycho-analysis' for those 'in trouble' and euphemistically-described 'medical samples and advice', which were 'free to the married'.

A few weeks later and it wasn't until page 6 – in a piece about the imminent hop-picking season – that the possibility of war was even mentioned.  At the end of the item, pickers were told that they should take their own gas-masks with them when they left for Kent at the beginning of September, as Tonbridge Rural District Council did not have sufficient reserves for the temporary incomers.  Other than that, the rest of the inside of the paper had a regular diet of late-summer weddings, sports reports and short pieces on petty crime, including in this edition, a story about a rag-and-bone man having been fined five shillings for giving children goldfish and inflatable balls in exchange for rags (the offence he had committed was putting the children in danger of infection, though whether from the rags, the fish or the balls was not made clear).  However, the back page did have a letter from the No-Conscription League, and a very positive item about the effectiveness of the blackout in the docks.

Astonishingly, even as late as Saturday 26th August, the headlines were still not looking to Europe, but were dedicated to a very sad but parochial story about the drowning of a young lighterman.  In retrospect, despite the numbers who would die in the conflict to come, it reminds us that every death is a tragedy for someone.  Inside the paper, there were two full columns devoted to a picturesque cycling route for those wishing to visit friends during the coming hop harvest, alongside a far briefer appeal from County Hall for volunteers to assist mothers with under-fives, should there be a need for mass evacuation in the event of a 'national emergency'.

That same edition carried an article about 'our friend the dog' and an ad for a Stimo dog food that 'wags tails' at just 4 ½ d a pop – the same doggy friends, presumably, who would, in just a few weeks' time, be destroyed in their tens of thousands in a patriotic gesture to save food.

But the possibility of that national emergency was not enough of a threat to prevent a complaining note on the back page following the traffic chaos that resulted from troops returning to London through the Blackwall Tunnel after manouevres.

It isn't until September 2nd 1939 – the day before the declaration of war – that the tone eventually changed.

Reputed Taxi Services Online For Airport Transfer, Wedding, Leisure And Business Trips

Traveling from one place to another can be a common and usual requirement of many people residing various corners of the city. For this occasional transfer, it may not be feasible and practically possible to rely on public transport and similarly it would not be possible to take the own car everywhere we move. In these cases we would need a mode of transport that would be like our own in terms of friendly service and comfort, and would pick us up and drop to the desired destination as soon as possible.

There are online taxi services that offer door to door transport services for various reasons. Aspirants can book their drive well in advance for transport to wedding venues, airports and even business or long distance leisure trips along with a group. The charges would be based on the distance of travel and the specialist drivers provided would take the customers through the safest and shortest routes so that they would reach the desired destination comfortably and quickly.

Aspirant travelers can book Airport transfer tonbridge to get a drop to the airport well within the scheduled reporting time for a flight they would be planning to take. The passengers can select the class of the car they would like to move in and the expected time to reach the airport. The customers can book taxis online through the online booking facility that avails additional 5% discount on the subsequent rides.

It is very easy and convenient to book Hildenborough airport taxis a trip to reach the airport. The online booking service also provides search option through which it would be possible to located the nearest taxi and interact with the subsequent driver to get to know the estimated time for pick up from the location. Thus passengers can book the drive from wherever they are well before the time of departure of the flight.

Passengers can book airport transfer Kent for round trip to airport as well. If both arrival at the airport and the departure for return journey would be reserved, passengers can hire airport taxi for their entire short term stay in the city. According to their arrival at the airport the driver would receive the passengers at the airport with a sign board in hand displaying their name. Now, the taxi and the driver would remain with the passenger till they come back to the airport completing all their scheduled assignments during the visit.

The comfortable and luxurious airport taxi would take the passengers to their hotel where they would have put up for the short trip. Later the taxi would take them to their desired destinations according to their schedule of meetings. The same taxi can be used for a short leisure trip in the evening to a tourist destination and then to a restaurant for a dinner meeting. Finally, after taking the entire luggage from the hotel the taxi would drop the passengers back to the airport to allow them to catch the return flight.

11th September, Muggsy’s Bugle

August MSG meeting

With John’s absence at the MSG meeting on 31st August, some 20  people actually bothered to turn up and lots of conspiracy theories were being suggested. All toi no avail though as John had gone to a friends wedding on Lake Garda, Italy, with Jude. The meeting continued as usual with a few hiccups and a different bingo caller, Mick, who made a sterling job.

Baby News

Lee and Peter Savage on the 9th August last, became grandparents for the first time when their son and daughter in law had a baby boy, who they named Bear, Crichton, Elijah and Peter, Lee and their daughter made the journey to Glasgow by car to visit their new family member

Big Mick Barham also became a grandfather, as his daughter, Kennedy, gave birth to a bouncing baby boy, who weighed in at 7lb 1oz. No names as yet.

We send warm congratulations to Lee and Big Mick.

Fred Lucette

Fred enjoyed his 80th  birthday with family and friends on Saturday 11th August last, at the Pilgrim’s Rest Home.

Bob Sawyer and Viv Sinclair

Marion and Les Dujigg met up with Bob recently  in Tonbridge and said that he was in the pink healthwise and that he said that he would be trying to attend the Group meetings soon. Viv was doing well and settling in to her new Dementia Home in Gravesend.

Christine Thomas

At the Group meeting on 17th August last we had a visit from one Chris Thomas the new Community Matters officer from the ASDA  store at King’s Hill. She came to find out just what we got up to and will be putting forward our Group into their community collection scheme and also attending our 20th Anniversary night and will hopefully bring along a rasffle donastion or two on behalf of ASDA.

Kathryn Norman

John has just heard from the aforementioned Kathryn Norman, that the Waitrose branch at King’s Hill during August had managed to collect £120 for the Group in their Community Matters scheme and that there is a cheque waiting to be collected.  Excellent news.

Kent Fire and Rescue Service

John has arranged a short talk to be given by Anna and  Taylie from the Kent Fire and Rescue Service, including projector pictures and short films for the Group meeting on Tuesday 23rd October

Martin Hartley

We have been informed that Martin will be moving to a flat in the Allington area on 7th September. Hopefully this is more suitable and we wisg him well.

Hope for Stroke Survivors

Stroke survivors could be spared a second stroke thanks to a matchstick sizes implant implanted into their chest. An undiagnosed heasrt rhythm  problem , called an Atrial Fibrillation, which affects  around a million Britons, is believed to be responsible for as many as 30,000 of the 200,000 stroke affected people every year. The Reveal Linq device  is an insertable cardiac monitor that records the heart rhythm for 24 hours a day , transmitting the information  via WiFi back to the patient;s GP. Several NHS CCG’sd are now using the device in stroke patients to establish whether an abnormal heartbeat caused their initial stroke.More information can be found on Medtronic. com

Kathy Ritchie

We wish Kathy a very successful outcome to her operation  and a very speedy recovery from every member of the MSG.
