articles toread by the fire (or at least sat near the<br />
radiator!)<br />
In our Entertainment section we have all the details<br />
of the winners ofthis years Eckington’s Got Talent.<br />

broadcast on Facebook due to the pandemic. This<br />
didn’t deter the performers though,and you can see<br />

held at Killamarsh Methodist Church. This is an<br />
annual event but due to the pandemic it wasn’t<br />
possible in 2020. The decision was made to go ahead<br />
and hold it this year with history groups and<br />
associations being invited from local communities<br />
such as Eckington, Barlborough & Mosborough.<br />

11 COUNCIL NEWS<br />
Terry Fox welcomes budget Supertram cash<br />
Sheffield City Council’s leader has<br />
welcomed the news that Wednesday’s<br />
budget will include £570m for transport<br />
projects in South Yorkshire –including<br />
around £200m for Sheffield.<br />
But the council leader added that much<br />
more government investment in public<br />
transport would be necessary to give<br />
Sheffield commuters a service<br />
comparable to that enjoyed byLondonersand<br />
make “levelling up” areality.<br />
Cllr Terry Fox said: “This is welcome<br />
news. We’ve fought hard for this for a<br />
long time, and we’ll put the cash to good<br />
use to improve Sheffielders’ transport<br />
options.<br />
“But we need much more than this, and<br />
we’ll keep pressing. To unlock Sheffield’s<br />
potential, we must have better public<br />
transport.<br />
“Remember that, per person, Sheffielders<br />
still get alot less than Londoners in<br />
government support for public transport.<br />
“For instance the amount of funding on<br />
buses per head inLondon is£76, but in<br />
Sheffield this is less than £5. So the<br />
government has along way to go before<br />
‘levelling up’ canbemorethan aslogan.”<br />
The fulldetail of the investment is yetto<br />
be revealed, but is expected to see over<br />
£200m invested in transport<br />
improvements in Sheffield, including:<br />
Over £100m on Supertram<br />
Over £35m on bus priority and public<br />
transportenhancements<br />
Over £25m on active travel measures<br />
Over £15m on local neighbourhood<br />
improvements<br />
Sheffield City Council’s One Year Plan<br />
sees improvements in public transport as<br />
akey part of tackling the climate crisis,<br />
fostering sustainable economic<br />
development and building a more<br />
inclusive community.<br />

12 TAROTSCOPES<br />
Karen Glazier<br />
www.karenglaziertarot.co.uk<br />
ARIES 21 March -20April<br />
Decision time! Some of them are yours to make but some<br />
leave youatthe mercy of others. Karma plays its part and,<br />
whatever theoutcomes, you can do no morethanaccept them.<br />
Life is, as ever, evolving and some situations are going to change<br />
irrevocably. Take your time to consider your next moves, weighing<br />
carefully, where your best interestslie. New propositions come<br />
your way but read thesmall printbefore making commitments.<br />
TAURUS 21 April -21May<br />
Messages received should be treated with adegreeofcaution<br />
as somethingisn’tquite what it seems. Beware also of whom you<br />
tellwhat to!For all there’sanelement of mistrust surrounding you<br />
there’salso some stalwart characters giving you loads of support<br />
and encouragement. Business and property matters are looking<br />
good and at least one situation findsyou being exactly where you<br />
need to be at exactly theright time. This holds promise!<br />
GEMINI 22 May -21June<br />
Astorm in ateacupappears to rockthe boat outofcontrol<br />
but things aren’t as bad as theyappear. Treat allparties equally<br />
and strive to maintain balance ensuring everyone is heard and<br />
theirneeds taken into consideration. Ahappy outcome’s ensured<br />
and you’ll bask in theglory of success. When all’s said and done<br />
thepositive results are down to yourbehaviours. After that step<br />
back and take some well-deserved‘me’ time.<br />
CANCER 22 June -23July<br />
Money, and how you acquire it, is cause for thought this<br />
month. Itall revolves around work and employment,and making<br />
good choices based on your experiences to date. Is it time to go it<br />
alone? Be prepared to stand your ground and take no nonsense.<br />
There may well be aperiod when you have to tighten your belt,but<br />
be assured that you can, and will, succeed at whatever you set<br />
your mind to.<br />
LEO 24 July-23 August<br />
Some strugglescontinue and all youcan do is maintain your<br />
balance. It’s goingtobedown to youtobringall parties together<br />
to startthe healingprocess. Brief respites do emergebut this isn’t<br />
the endofmatters, much as you’d welcome it. Get your thinking<br />
cap on to avoid ending up theoutcast. Irrespective of you being<br />
able to see how events will pan out not everybody welcomes your<br />
take on events.<br />
VIRGO 24 August-23 September<br />
Arichharvest is yours for thetaking and not before time.<br />
Past efforts are about to reap theirrewards and you’reassured of<br />
success. You may have had your detractors but now it’s time to<br />
stepinto the limelight and takethe applause due to you. Just<br />
remember though; no one likes ashow offand the words“Itold<br />
you so” don’twin friends. Money in thebank and property matters<br />
look good.<br />
LIBRA 24 September -23October<br />
Put emotions aside and relywhollyonyour intuition.<br />
Expecting to hear from someone in particular?There could be<br />
delays! Sadly, this could lead to sillyarguments erupting so be<br />
aware of what you say and to whom. Avoid gossiping and gossips!<br />
Maintaining your own high standards is paramount but you can do<br />
so quietly and without causing upset.All in all aslower pace this<br />
month but keep going and progress can be made.<br />
SCORPIO 24 October -22<strong>Nov</strong>ember<br />
Confused? Take time out to assesswhere you areand how<br />
you arrived there. Do changesneed to be made? Onlyyou can<br />
instigate them. The futurestarts now so put plans into action. The<br />
worst of asituation is behindyou. It’stime forhealing and the<br />
positive energy surrounding you brings good luck withit. You’re<br />
nobody’s fool so don’t fool yourself. You’reolder, wiser, and can<br />
achieve anythingyou want. Everything’s possible!<br />
SAGITTARIUS 23 <strong>Nov</strong>ember -21December<br />
It may well be time to pack your bags and move on either<br />
physicallyoremotionally. You’ve done the best you can, given all<br />
you can, and can offer no more. Don’t let yourself be taken<br />
advantage of. Move to where though? For now there’salot of<br />
uncertaintyaround and it would be best to let thefog clear before<br />
making any decisions. Othersoffer love, support,encouragement<br />
and help. Accept it with gratitude.<br />
CAPRICORN 22 December -20January<br />
Good omens surround you now, particularly withregard to<br />
finance, but before you start splashing thecashit’sworth noting<br />
that progress is going to be slow and steady. In short: be patient.<br />
Do know that stronger foundations are being constructedbut this<br />
will take time to manifest. Keeping going is your only option.<br />
There’s hard work to be done but applying yourself now reaps<br />
future rewards. It’sall about planning ahead for security tomorrow.<br />
AQUARIUS 21 January -19February<br />
The power is in your hands and must only be used for the<br />
highest good of all. Alternatively, trust your innermost thoughts and<br />
instinctsand actwithintegrity. Rise above anystressful situations<br />
and look for compromise which brings healing to all. Offer help<br />
where needed in thefull knowledge thatKarma will repay you three<br />
fold. Stick by your own standards and principles and don’t commit<br />
to anythingunless youwholeheartedlyagree with it.<br />
PISCES 20 February -20March<br />
Some tearssurround you but this is thefinal phase of an<br />
ongoing saga. It willpass and, very much, youwill find yourself in<br />
theright place to start moving forward to much brighter,happier,<br />
times. Issues, potentially, arearound work or relationships but<br />
you are beyond the worst. Keep going! Allow hope to fill your<br />
heart. Plenty of rest and thechance to catch up withold friends<br />
allow thehealing to start.<br />

what the attendance will be like.<br />

27 ENTERTAINMENT<br />
Eckington’s Got Talent <strong>2021</strong><br />
We were simply blown away bythe<br />
talent on display through lockdown<br />
and Christmas on Sir Capt Toms<br />
Moore Facebook page. We had<br />
an amazing audience of over 95,000<br />
from all over the world, our<br />
Christmas songs received over 108k<br />
views.<br />
We had abig show plannedour 10th<br />
year anniversary and only one act<br />
signed up! We weredevastatedeven<br />
thinking about Eckington’s Got<br />
Talent not going ahead in alive venue<br />
again for the secondyear running.<br />
It looked like everyone was still very<br />
wary about performing in public.<br />
But, never to be defeated wegot up<br />
and got onwith it, and change plans<br />
just two weeks before the event. As<br />
2020 was on line we went back to<br />
the drawing board toput our show<br />
backonFacebook forasecond year.<br />
While still riding on cloud nine after<br />
our amazing virtual shows - we<br />
couldn’t believe it when Britain’sGot<br />
Talent Superstars Soldiers of Swing<br />
The military singing duo -made up of<br />
reservists Corporal Lee Day and<br />
Sergeant Vince Fountain -said they<br />
were ‘blown away’ and urged our<br />
singers to keepitup. Theyimpressed<br />
they wanted to work with us, so Lee<br />
and Vince became our hosts on the<br />
night. Also, Julian Smith another<br />
finalist of Britain’s Got Talent who<br />
we worked with in lockdown raising<br />
money for the NHS. Sent us a<br />
message to say how impressed he<br />
was and good luckwiththe show.So,<br />
they allhad some fantasticsupport.<br />
By September 29, we had 22<br />
amazing entries signed up for our<br />
showplusone actfrom Americaand<br />
together with our judges they<br />
couldn’twait for the2nd October.<br />
On the panel was music producer<br />
Steve Stirland who has been with us<br />
every year from ourvery first showin<br />
2012.<br />
Easy Street Theatre Company<br />
director and the founder of Picture<br />
House Youth Theatre Sallyanne<br />
Foster-Major was alsoonthe panelas<br />
was Easy Street company<br />
choreographer and principal of<br />
Amanda Hollands school of dance,<br />
Amanda Tyas.<br />
New to this year’s panel was<br />
Stephine King who’s first gigasapro<br />
singer was with Martha Reeves and<br />
the Vandellas.<br />
All 3ofour judges weresoimpressed<br />
by every single one of the<br />
submissions put forward for our<br />
three categories: Under 10's, Under<br />
16's andAdult.<br />
Aspecial congratulations goes to our<br />
winnersIsabelle Askew aged 9; Emily<br />
Green age 11;and KerenFirth.<br />
Ahuge well done is owed to our<br />
runners up too, which were:<br />
Ava-Grace Barkworthage 9; Zak Mills<br />
age 13 andJessicaFirth.<br />
The Star of the show went to<br />
Shirinjoy for entering all the way<br />
from Illinois near Chicago. Shirinjoy<br />
has been following Eckington Got<br />
Talent through Lockdown on Sir<br />
Capt.Toms page then joined us.<br />
All in all, we raised an incredible<br />
£240 for Ashgate Hospicecare. This<br />
makes a whopping grand-total of<br />
£9089 raised for local charities over<br />
the 10years we’ve been putting on<br />
Eckington’s Got talent.<br />
So no,the last2years have not been<br />
easy. We’ve been faced with<br />
impossible challenges but they have<br />
also been atestament to everything<br />
our community can achieve when<br />
they come together.<br />
Here’s to nextyear being ashowthat<br />
will be bigger and betterthan ever.<br />
