September View from the Vicarage
Psalm 34:14 ‘Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.’
Some mes as we watch the news, the horrors and atroci es that are being
commi ed around the world can seem overwhelming. Some of them are
carried out ‘in the name of religion’ and as far as I can see, none of the major
world faiths actually encourage violence in their holy books. All are based on
love and peace.
“Peace is the only ba le worth waging” said Albert Camus, and Mar n Luther
King. “Peace is not merely a distant goal we seek, but a means by which we
arrive at that goal” - Mar n Luther King Jr.
What can we do to play our part? Well it seems to me that we can pray, not
only for the vic ms, but also for the perpetrators, that their hearts may be
changed. We can give financially, to support those who are going out to assist
the refugees from the various crisis. Thirdly we can try to show, by our own
example, that peace is the way forward, beginning in our own family and
friendship circles. Some words that I o en use at weddings sum it up for me
If there is righteousness in the heart,
there will be beauty in the character.
If there is beauty in the character,
there will be harmony in the home.
If there is harmony in the home,
there will be order in the na on.
If there is order in the na on,
there will be peace in the world.
So let it be.
Yet we will not see peace un l we also see jus ce for each and every human
being, and a recogni on by each one of us that we are all equally beloved of
God. Amos 5 24 ‘But let jus ce run down like water, and righteousness like a
mighty stream.’
I ask you please therefore to focus your prayers not only on peace but also on
jus ce for all.
Every blessing - Anne

Friends of All Saints East Budleigh
I am delighted to be able to report that this year’s Scarecrow
Fes val raised a total of approximately £3,000. The FoASEB
Commi ee have agreed to donate this sum towards the
fund-raising for the replacement bell for All Saints Church.
If you are reading this before the end of August, don’t forget
the Annual Barbeque takes place at the Vicarage on the evening of Saturday 30
August. Tickets may s ll be available from the Community Shop and East Budleigh
Garage price £6.00 – accompanied children are free. Bring your own drinks and
chairs but food, tables, crockery and cutlery will be provided.
Our next FoASEB fund-raising event will be an illustrated talk by Mike Palmer about
his work and experiences with the Bri sh Antarc c Survey in the Falkland Islands
and South Georgia. This promises to be a fascina ng insight into these remote and
unique loca ons so please make a note of the me and date. Mike’s talk is at the
Church Hall, 19.00 on Friday 26 September. Tickets price £5 (£2.50 for students
and Under 18s) are available at East Budleigh Garage and the Community Shop.
Alterna vely, you can pay at the door on the night.
The Commi ee is currently looking into the possibility of holding a wine tas ng for
our last fund-raising event of 2014. This would probably be held late November or
early December thus providing a great opportunity to select and order your pple
for Christmas and the Fes ve Season as well as to relax with your friends and
neighbours. Full details will be available in the October edi on of East Budleigh

East Budleigh Bell Ringers report
As I write this report I have just been to meet the Budleigh Salterton Lions Club to
be presented with a cheque to the bell ringers appeal fund for the two events they
put on for the ringers in July. Molly and I were amazed with the amount that was
raised - a total of £1264-50. With this money we are doing very well with our
appeal nearly there. A marvellous achievement - the sum raised in only 9 months.
A very big THANK YOU to all who have supported us. Taylor's Bell foundry came on
Wednesday 13th August to take final measurements of the bells so that some work
can be started back in the foundry.
Then on Wednesday 10th September the bells are going to be cast. There is a coach
going up to witness this event something that you may never see again in a life
me. If anyone is interested in going please ring David or Molly on 01395-443708 .
The coach will leave the Village Hall at 8am and the price is £20 which includes a p
for the driver. .
Some of the ringers are doing a sponsored bicycle ride on September 13th riding
to, and ringing at twelve towers around the area - you may be asked to sponsor one
of these fit bell ringers! Yours David

East Budleigh Chess Club
The new season starts on Thursday 11th September, 7pm at All
Saints Church Hall when an informal quick play tournament will be
held. This will be a fun event and suitable for both beginners
and more experienced players alike. With only ten minutes on the
clock for each player to complete all his moves, these games can
be very exci ng. The Club hopes to have two teams in the local league for the
14/15 season. The Exeter & District Chess League results for last season can be
found at the excellent website:
h p://exeterchessclub.org.uk/content/exeter-district-league-results-201314
We would welcome anyone with an interest in chess of whatever ability. There will
be an opportunity for stronger players to play in a team but this need not deter
you if you would rather play on a less compe ve basis.
The club meets on the second Thursday of every month with league matches
played on other nights. The annual club membership fee is £30 for adults and £15
for juniors. Modest ECF registra on fees if applicable are paid separately.

Drake’s School PTFA Fundraiser
Tour de East Budleigh
Hot on the heels of the Tour of Britain’s visit to East Budleigh the PTFA would
like to recreate the colour, passion and spectacle of this pro-event, albeit on a
more modest scale. So whether you’re a keen cyclist or simply eager to dust off
the bike and get active, please join us for the inaugural Tour de East
Budleigh. The event is open to all regardless of ability - so whether you aspire
to don the yellow jersey or simply want to participate in a fun family bike ride, this
is a must-do for your autumn calendar.
The ‘peloton’ will be departing at 10.30am on Sunday 21st September from East
Budleigh Football Pavilion. Registration starts at 10am. As this event is not yet
on the scale of the Tour de France or the Giro D’Italia we’ve decided to eschew
the traditional and we won’t be having a ‘King of the Mountain’. Instead we’ll
have a special award for the family with the best fancy dress.
Two distances will be on offer:
* a 20km route tackling some ‘modest’ hills on quiet East Devon lanes
(suitable for children over 8, all children under 16 must be accompanied by
an adult) ; or
* four laps of the football fields for those not yet able to tackle the full distance
Having achieved this feat of human endurance you’ll be rewarded with a
certificate and an official time. There will be a barbeque on offer alongside tea
and cakes etc. and some family fun.
Of course this is a fund-raiser for the school so sponsorship forms are available
from leanne_dan@me.com
On the day you’ll need to bring your sponsorship form and register - minimum £3
sponsorship per participant. We will return the sponsorship form to you to
collect money after the event – unless you have collected it in advance, in which
case you can pay it directly on the day. Alternatively, if you don’t want to collect
sponsorship, you can just pay a £3 entry fee on the day.

RSPB Aylesbeare Common Reserve
Summer 2014 newsletter
The heaths are alive with the sound of ...
well, mostly invertebrates. This is the
peak me of year for the dragonflies,
damselflies, bees, wasps, beetles and flies,
everything that goes swish or buzz, as well
as the bu erflies of course. Now I have
never heard a bu erfly make a sound
(apart from ba ered wings on a window)
but I have listened to caterpillars singlemindedly crunching their way through
their food. I think you will have got my
dri by now: I am encouraging you to try
to experience all the li le sounds that
make up an English high-summer day: the
gentle rustle of the breeze in long grass
stems, the zizz and buzz of the insects
overhead, the scrape of a grasshopper.
And look out for my favourite bu erflies:
the green hairstreaks. If you see a small
piece of bramble leaf take flight, that will
be a green hairstreak. Once you spot one
they seem much too brightly coloured to
be camouflaged, but when they se le
back down on a plant, they disappear.
Meanwhile we have a chance to
concentrate on some public events: we
held the Big Wild Sleepout on Aylesbeare
over midsummer and several families
joined in to help build an Iron Age
roundhouse, as well as experiencing
nightjars, moths and bats and waking to a
dawn chorus including turtledoves. One
chap, who started mostly interested in the
roundhouse, now has a whole new
enthusiasm for nature and joined the RSPB
on the spot!
And only the odd chirrup from the birds.
It’s a funny me of year for the birds as
they have generally pre y much finished
raising their kids (unless they are onto a
third brood), so all the compe ve
behaviour dies down and they go
strangely quiet. A er the middle of July
you will have stopped hearing the blackbirds singing (as the males stop staking out
territory) and only get alarm calls when
they are spooked. This is largely because
they are taking the chance to moult and
renew their feathers for the winter, so
they don’t want to a ract a en on from
the predators while they are a bit less able
than usual to zoom out of danger.
As I write Heathweek is approaching and
we are busy distribu ng leaflets and
pu ng up posters to try and let as many
people know as possible about the
week-long series of events celebra ng
everything about the East Devon heaths.
If you missed it this year, look out for the
publicity next year: the last week in July is
the usual me.
Also as I write the weather forecast is for
thunderstorms this weekend. But by the
me you read this we may have had a
drier spell. So I am going to close with my
usual seasonal plea: PLEASE be careful
NOT to start fires on the heaths. Every
year wildfires do untold damage to the
habitats and kill the wildlife, as well as
threatening property and even lives. This
me of year, as the grass dries out and
even the thin, peaty soil can catch light, is
the most dangerous. My heart sinks
whenever I see a black smoke cloud rising
on the ridge, as I know my colleagues will
be out figh ng another fire along side the
local fire brigades.
On the reserve the breeding bird surveys
for this year have been completed and are Take care and enjoy

Pu ng East Budleigh on the map? (Note amended contact number)
Salem Chapel has been accepted to go on the
books of a loca on company which means it
could be used for filming or photographic
work in the future. I have been speaking
with the company and told them how pre y
East Budleigh is and they have asked if any
other property owners in the village would
like to be on their books too. This could bring
in income, as one East Budleigh resident told
me they were paid very well for the use of
their house in London some years ago.
You never know they could film a series like
Doc Mar n in East Budleigh!
If anyone is interested, please contact me
on this new number - Kim Holmes 446836.
