weekends for a local garden centre, and then progressed over the<br />

years. I’ve spent the last ten years running a team of 15 but now<br />

we’ve downsized so we can specialise more in the design and<br />

gardens, and we pride ourselves on quality and passion and<br />

Tarotscopes<br />

ARIES 21 March - 20 April<br />

Home is where the heart is and offers a welcome<br />

opportunity to pause and take time to recharge the batteries whilst<br />

contemplating your next adventure. This is a happy, joyful,<br />

contented, period and the focus is on you. Spend time doing the<br />

things you enjoy and connect with your inner child. A good diet,<br />

and exercise for body and mind alike, get you on top form and see<br />

you energised and eager for fresh challenges.<br />

TAURUS 21 April - 21 <strong>May</strong><br />

If it feels as though everything is changing and you have little,<br />

or no, control don’t be alarmed. This is nothing more than life<br />

making way for new people, and experiences, to come in and the<br />

future looks set to be built on much stronger foundations. You’re<br />

in safe hands and have nothing to fear so enjoy the journey. An<br />

invitation holds romantic promise but don’t be fooled by a pretty<br />

face and honeyed words.<br />

GEMINI 22 <strong>May</strong> - 21 June<br />

You need to get top side of one situation once and for all and<br />

you’re more than capable of achieving success on your terms.<br />

When you’ve had your say, and put one or two folk in their place,<br />

then you should start to experience a much calmer existence.<br />

There is an older lady who provides much emotional support and<br />

has a wealth of wisdom to share. She offers a welcome respite<br />

from the daily routine.<br />

CANCER 22 June - 23 July<br />

One situation requires you use your head rather than your<br />

heart. It’s important to put all emotion aside and concentrate on how<br />

balance and harmony can be restored. Treat others equally and<br />

ensure that there’s no room for resentments to fester. Everyone<br />

needs to come away with something here. Recourse to a<br />

professional body could prove helpful. Fortunately, one person<br />

appears who provides emotional support. You think and speak as<br />

one and you find solace.<br />

LEO 24 July - 23 August<br />

You should be feeling contented with your lot and happy to<br />

celebrate your standing within your community and family. Take<br />

time to enjoy this phase but know it is a brief respite. Something<br />

or, probably, someone from the past is due to reappear and you’re<br />

reminded of previous experiences. Use this as a learning tool for<br />

current situations. Thinking outside the box helps when you find<br />

yourself in the right place at the right time.<br />

VIRGO 24 August - 23 September<br />

Whatever crops up this month your standards, principles,<br />

levels of commitment, and compromise, are to the fore. Above all<br />

else, do not lose hope and remember that it does spring eternal.<br />

You and another consider your futures; either together, or as<br />

individuals. Neither are sure they want to walk away but something<br />

has to give to bring you closer together. Fortunately, past good<br />

deeds are on your side and kindnesses are about to be repaid.<br />

LIBRA 24 September - 23 October<br />

You may feel a little overwhelmed by events, or situations,<br />

before you. Take a step back, get organised, be methodical, and<br />

take everything one bit at a time. Make time for you to have quiet<br />

periods as this is important for your health and wellbeing. One<br />

situation is a real conundrum and requires time out to marshal your<br />

thoughts. Avoid decisions for now as some bridges are set to be<br />

burned once and for all.<br />

SCORPIO 24 October - 22 November<br />

The past comes to mind with someone, or something, set to<br />

reappear. You and others are all different folk now as time has<br />

moved on and experiences have changed attitudes. A well-earned<br />

break from the hurly burly gives you time to reflect and come to<br />

terms with your own emotions and needs. Much as new<br />

adventures beckon, and you can’t wait to be on your way, embrace<br />

this period. Career, finance, and property, look good.<br />

SAGITTARIUS 23 November - 21 December<br />

A month of strong influences regarding learning. A new course<br />

of study could either enhance your existing skills, or see you taking a<br />

complete change of direction. Either one will swell your bank balance,<br />

eventually. <strong>May</strong>be a step up the career ladder, or an enjoyable<br />

hobby, becomes a source of additional income. Change is afoot so<br />

embrace it wholeheartedly. Previous experience allows that you’re<br />

more than capable of any challenges set before you. Crack on!<br />

CAPRICORN 22 December - 20 January<br />

You may find yourself in a bit of a tangle with one situation<br />

needing some very careful unpicking in order to get to the root of<br />

the issue. Good Luck comes your way and lends you a hand and<br />

some things, to an extent, will sort themselves out if you give them<br />

time. Ultimately though the finer details are down to you. Take<br />

control and let others know you’re going to stand no nonsense<br />

whatsoever!<br />

AQUARIUS 21 January - 19 February<br />

It would be prudent to keep your thoughts, feelings, and<br />

opinions, to yourself as not everyone has your best interests at<br />

heart, and the resultant tittle tattle could cause you some issues. If<br />

you need to offload an emotional burden chose, carefully, the<br />

recipient of your words and, remember, not everything rests on your<br />

shoulders. You only played your part in events. You didn’t<br />

orchestrate the whole situation. Past kindnesses will be repaid with<br />

interest.<br />

PISCES 20 February - 20 March<br />

Important lessons have been learned as one phase reaches<br />

its conclusion and now it’s time to recharge your batteries ready for<br />

the next phase. New doors will soon be opening for you bringing<br />

the realisation of how important one person is to you. This is the<br />

stuff dreams are made of! That said, it’s not all going to be plain<br />

sailing and you will need to hang on and not rock the boat on<br />

occasions.<br />

Project to restore Chesterfield Canal’s<br />

missing link at Renishaw<br />

A disused section of the Chesterfield Canal is to be<br />

restored by Derbyshire County Council and Chesterfield<br />

Canal Trust for the benefit of local residents, visitors and<br />

wildlife.<br />

The mile-long section in Renishaw, which lies close to the<br />

original canal alignment, is land-locked and virtually<br />

empty of water.<br />

Work is needed, subject to planning permission, to make<br />

the structure watertight and rebuild the overflow-weir<br />

so it is ready to connect to further sections of the canal<br />

when they are restored. A temporary pumping system<br />

would need to be installed to supply water from the<br />

River Rother to the canal and the towpath resurfaced to<br />

make it suitable for pedestrians and cyclists.<br />

Further work is also proposed to resurface a further 915<br />

metres of towpath to provide a circular 2.5km surfaced<br />

route incorporating the Trans-Pennine Trail. And new<br />

picnic benches, signage and cycle stands would also be<br />

installed.<br />

2<br />

The original canal was completed in 1777 and stretched<br />

46 miles in total, providing navigation between the River<br />

Rother at Chesterfield and the River Trent at West Stockwith<br />

in Nottinghamshire. The section in Renishaw was<br />

rerouted in the 19th century with the building of railways.<br />

whole route from Chesterfield to Kiveton navigable with<br />

nine miles yet to be restored.<br />

Councillor Carolyn Renwick, Derbyshire County Council’s<br />

Cabinet Member for Infrastructure and Environment,<br />

said: “The Chesterfield Canal is an important part of our<br />

county’s industrial heritage, built as a trade route at the<br />

dawn of the industrial revolution.<br />

“As well as improving the area visually, restoring the<br />

Renishaw link will bring opportunities for recreation as<br />

well as improving biodiversity. And it will take us one<br />

step closer to opening up the whole route to canal boats<br />

which would bring further economic benefits from the<br />

increase in tourism.”<br />

The restoration is expected to cost around £400,000 with<br />

the council contributing £200,000, the Trust providing<br />

£150,000 and the remaining £50,000 being funded by<br />

the Inland Waterways Association. The work will be done<br />

by volunteers from the Trust.<br />

Peter Hardy, Chair of the Chesterfield Canal Trust, said:<br />

“We know that local residents are keen to see the<br />

re-watering of the canal around Renishaw and this<br />

project has been made possible thanks to the close<br />

cooperation between the Trust and Derbyshire County<br />

Council. It’s also thanks to the enthusiasm of local people<br />

who will join with us to create an area they will be proud<br />

of for walking, cycling, fishing and watersports.<br />

These days most homeowners<br />

suffer from a lack of<br />

storage space. So many<br />

precious items that need to<br />

be kept – but where to store<br />

it all? That’s where Yorkshire<br />

Loft Ladders come in.<br />

The company, based locally,<br />

offers homeowners the opportunity<br />

to maximise their<br />

storage space with a loft<br />

ladder, 50 sq ft of boarding<br />

and a light all fully fitted in<br />

less than a day from just<br />

£277 + VAT. But it’s not just<br />

the affordability of the package<br />

the company offers that<br />

makes Yorkshire Loft Ladders<br />

stand out as manager<br />

Warren Ingleson explains:<br />

Quality in the materials that<br />

we use for all our installations<br />

and the fact that all our<br />

loft packages are fitted by<br />

time served tradesmen so our<br />

customers are assured of the<br />

best job. Integrity in that we<br />

will turn up at the time we<br />

say and make sure the house<br />

is spotless when we leave,<br />

and Value in that we offer<br />

our services at a price people<br />

can afford. Our business<br />

relies on referrals and we got<br />

a huge amount of our calls<br />

from people who have been<br />

referred to us by our existing<br />

customers - that simply<br />

wouldn’t happen if we didn’t<br />

adhere to our overriding<br />

principles.<br />

lead to more happy customers<br />

is true and we work hard<br />

to make that happen for<br />

every installation we carry<br />

out!’<br />

So, if you want to make use<br />

of your loft space, however<br />

big or small, call Warren on<br />

0800 612 8359 and he’ll be<br />

happy to pop round and give<br />

you a no obligation quote so<br />

you too can make use of your<br />

loft!<br />

‘Our watchwords are Quality,<br />

Integrity and Value.<br />

At the end of the day the old<br />

adage that happy customers

Education<br />

Ridgeway Primary School<br />

How long has Ridgeway Primary School been<br />

with us? In 2024 it will be 150 years.<br />

To celebrate this achievement the school and<br />

the Parent Teacher Association (PTA) are<br />

seeking contact with ex-pupils and ex-teachers,<br />

or their families. We want them to tell us of<br />

their memories and experiences of their time<br />

at Ridgeway and maybe even to loan pictures<br />

or other souvenirs to display in school.<br />

Of particular interest would be information<br />

about the Armed service personnel whose<br />

names appear on the village war memorial.<br />

Also, of great interest would be if anybody<br />

knows of anyone of fame or infamy who went<br />

to the school, whether they be a ‘Vera Lynn’<br />

or a ‘Blackbeard the pirate’!<br />

2<br />

During wartime were any of you evacuated or<br />

more likely had evacuees come to stay? Are<br />

you still in contact? What was the school like<br />

during the wars or the harsh winter of 1947?<br />

The 1959 or 1976 droughts? Were you<br />

affected by the 1963 gales?<br />

How did the school celebrate Royal events?<br />

The death of Queen Victoria, the Coronation<br />

of Queen Elizabeth II or the marriage of the<br />

Prince of Wales?<br />

Are you in touch with any former pupils or<br />

staff who may have emigrated to Australia,<br />

New Zealand, Canada, South Africa or<br />

anywhere else in the world. We would love to<br />

hear from them, how their time at Ridgeway<br />

Primary School prepared them for living<br />

abroad.<br />

The school at Ridgeway has been extended<br />

twice. Once on the uphill side to provide much<br />

needed office space and hidden away at the<br />

far end away from the road. This to provide<br />

classroom space for the Early Years learners.<br />

What are your memories of these extensions<br />

happening? Did they affect your learning or<br />

your teaching? Were you involved in the<br />

design or building works?<br />

If you have any information that can help this<br />

project, please email the PTA:<br />

ridgewayprimarypta@gmail.com or drop the<br />

information off at the school office. Don’t<br />

forget your contact details so we can return<br />

your items and if we have any questions.<br />

Travel<br />

Disney Cruise Line have launched<br />

European sailings for 2024, departing<br />

from and returning to Southampton.<br />

Set sail on board Disney Dream on a<br />

magical adventure direct from the UK to<br />

France, Spain or Belgium.<br />

The four-night sailings to La Rochelle<br />

and Bilbao proved to be so popular,<br />

Disney Cruise Line brought them back<br />

with an additional 4-night cruise to La<br />

Coruna. Further sailings include a three<br />

night cruise to Bruges and a five-night<br />

cruise to Vigo and La Coruna. Both of<br />

these 3 and 5-night sailings are one offs,<br />

so book now to avoid missing out!<br />

With more UK sailings you have more<br />

opportunities to live a different kind of<br />

magic at sea aboard the Disney Dream.<br />

A magic that will have the whole family<br />

spellbound by a dazzling Beauty and the<br />

Beast musical, wooshing down the<br />

first-of-its-kind AquaDuck water<br />

coaster, diving into immersive dining<br />

alongside Crush and friends and<br />

enjoying the swashbuckling Pirate Night<br />

Deck Party. What’s more, little ones can<br />

fly the Millennium Falcon, hang with the<br />

Toy Story gang or meet Tinker Bell in<br />

Disney’s Oceaneer Club while the adults<br />

take things a little slower in the Quiet<br />

Cove Pool. All of it included in the price<br />

you pay before you sail away.<br />

As these new sailings are in addition to<br />

the culture-rich, sun-soaked Mediterranean<br />

getaways and a Frozen-inspired voyage<br />

in the Norwegian fjords, there’s a<br />

European cruise for everyone. Then<br />

again, if your dream is to escape to<br />

somewhere tropical, you can make this<br />

dream come true with one of the<br />

Bahamian or Caribbean cruises. They<br />

are quite simply perfect – wait until you<br />

see Disney Cruise Line's all-new island<br />

destination, Lighthouse Point.<br />

So whether you dream of a three, four<br />

or five-night European break or<br />

something a little, or a lot, longer, look<br />

forward to sailing away on a Disney<br />

adventure you’ll never ever forget. Your<br />

very own family fairy tale where fun<br />

meets relaxation, where escape meets<br />

imagination, where dreams meet<br />

reality, where smiles meet more smiles<br />

and... Where Magic Meets the Sea.<br />

3, 4 and 5-night cruises from<br />

Southampton in August 2024.<br />

Passenger favourites and new sailings<br />

all departing from and returning to<br />

Southampton. All on board the Disney<br />

Dream.<br />
