Poppy Ladies Celebrate 50+2 Years of RNLI Calshot The Hythe and Waterside Poppy Ladies have spent the last 3 years busily planning, knitting and sewing to create an amazing ‘yarn bomb’ display to celebrate 50+2 years of the RNLI Lifeboat Station at Calshot. e display, originally planned for the 50th Anniversary in 2020, was set up in Hythe at Prospect Place for the Bank Holiday weekend to coincide with the RNLI Great Waterside Ra Race. e amazing display featured a large collage depicting the Lifeboat Station at Calshot and other recognisable features including the beach huts, the old power station and Calshot Castle. All the people on the collage were ‘mini-mes’ of the Hythe and Waterside Poppy Ladies themselves and some of the RNLI crew at Calshot! A second collage was a large golden 50+2; each of the poppy ladies had knitted a square before being sewn together. As well as the collages the fence around the park was beautifully adorned with knitted sea creatures, birds, mermaids, beach huts, lifeboat crew dolls, wellies, light houses and much more! Larger knitted toys were available for sale over the weekend with a nal sale on the Bank Holiday Monday selling o the display from the fence with all proceeds going to the RNLI. e display raised over £3000 for the charity and the collage will now take pride of place in the lifeboat station at Calshot. Some of the creations from the Hythe and Waterside Poppy Ladies

A pleasant late summer’s day brought spectators out in their numbers for the 34th RNLI Great Waterside Ra Race on Sunday 28th August. e whole side of the marina was lled with spectators, with others watching from Prospect Place and the Pier. ere were 9 ra s with well over 40 crew, competing for trophies and medals. e winners of the rst race, Best Decorated, was “Back Ra ” (Hardley Fire Station), which did very well. Next was e Formula 1 Race, which was won by “Ebby’s” (Ebenezers Pub), where they also won the next two races; the Ladies’ and the Pub Race. A new race for this year, the Kayak Race, saw Darren and Sarah Ashmore romp home in rst place. Lastly, the Handicap Race was won by “Jubilee 70” (Hythe Marina Association) which also won the Best Presented trophy. “Madonna’s Bra” (Champion X) came second, also winning the Most Ingenious Ra trophy, with Ebby’s in third place. With the most trophies won on the day, Ebby’s also won the Parnel Cup for Best Overall E ort. RNLI Press O cer, Dan Poole, said: “It was yet another superb effort from competitors to helpers alike and we were absolutely delighted with the turnout. There was a great atmosphere and I think people were just glad to get out again and enjoy themselves. Each year, our small team of volunteers work tirelessly to ensure the event goes to plan, so I am pleased it has paid off. An added draw this year, too, was the addition of the fantastic Hythe and waterside Poppy Ladies’ ‘yarn bomb’ on Prospect Place, in aid of RNLI Calshot’s 50th Anniversary, many thanks go to them.” Also at the ra race was Cole’s Fairground, a BBQ and refreshments, Souvenirs and the main sponsor, TMT Legal Services, also had a stall. Before the presentation of the trophies and medals by the partners of TMT, the ra e was drawn, where several excellent prizes were won. Proceedings were once again superbly covered by John McGuinn and A-cute Medical Services were on standby in case they were needed. Since it began in the 1980’s, the race is organised by RNLI Hythe and Calshot Fundraising Branch. is year they have raised just over £12,000! The Branch would like to take this opportunity to thank sponsors, volunteers, and competitors for all their hard work and kind support, not forgetting the many spectators for their continued generosity.

Set up by e Waterside Food Project, the fridge will be located in Hythe Library and will o er the community access to chilled and frozen foods from supermarkets and other food producers that may have otherwise gone to land ll. Over the past two years food has been distributed by e Waterside Food Project across the Waterside from Totton to Langley, working to make sure that no food is wasted, that everyone can access healthy food as well as helping to educate what healthy food is, and what impact our food has on the planet. e Waterside Food Project is one of the many projects run by the New Forest Aquaponics CIC, working alongside the WasteNot WantNot (WIN project) run by Dawn Cullen and Windward Day Services they have ensured that as many people as possible who need to can access food via food pop ups and food cupboards where they live. e three groups and their fantastic teams of volunteers drive around late at night collecting and distributing food to the local area, working together and supporting each other’s work. e community fridge will consist of at least one fridge and one freezer, allowing community access to chilled and frozen foods, helping to reduce food waste even further. Lucie Mann from New Forest Aquaponics CIC comments: “Being in the library we hope that many more people will not only access surplus supermarket food, but also share any surplus foods they have with the community. A huge thanks to the library for supporting the community fridge and allowing us to have space in the library. If you would like to support the community fridge we are looking for funding for the fridge and freezer and the electricity costs to run it. If you are a local food business who may have surplus food we can help to reduce your food waste. If you feel you can help with any of these please get in touch watercressqueen1@ gmail.com” Are You Facing Hardship This Winter?

Brice was born and raised in the New Forest, growing up, he was always frustrated that there were no books on the mythology and folklore of the Forest, in spite of the fact that he knew it had and has its own culture, traditions and heritage, distinct from the rest of the county. Over a decade ago Brice made the decision to write such a book and has spent endless hours researching and collecting information from medieval charters, newspaper archives, court records, hand written diaries, and history and guidebooks on the New Forest Red and so on, but they’re combined with far more obscure gures, such as the giant ettin Yernagate, who protects the Forest; the enormous, red, antlered Stratford Lyon, who terrorises drunks around the Red Lion pub in Boldre; Lazy Laurence, the shape shi ing pixie who protects orchards and cider; and many, many more besides. stretching back centuries. The book combines grand, broad, lyrical storytelling chapters, with others which talk more about the history of the traditions, and the signi cance behind some of the folklore. ere’s the very famous tales, of course, of King Arthur, Robin Hood, Rufus the e oldest story in the collection is attested in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and dates to just over 1500 years ago. Brice comments: “I believe that the stories and folk culture of an area, inherited and developed organically over generations, are vital to any kind of lasting local identity. Without a real depth of that identity, an area very quickly becomes nowhere, with fewer and fewer people to care or to understand what makes it rare and valuable and worth maintaining. Soon enough it becomes just like anywhere else. The most important thing is that once the story has been told, it belongs to whoever has heard it. It is my sincerest hope with this book that these tales will be passed on, and grown and tended to and harvested, for many more generations to come.” e book published by History Press is now available from e Herald o ce in Hythe priced at £14.99.

Waterside Tours recently celebrated their 40th Anniversary with an extra special excursion. Established in 1982 by Roy Barker and Denny Reynard, Hythe & Waterside Coaches Ltd began with a eet of just two coaches initially providing coaches for school runs, bingo contracts and shopping outings arranged by the Provident Loan Group. With Roy’s then 18-year old daughter, Jacqueline employed to answer the phone. Within a few years Roy bought Denny out and with Roy’s wife Pam replacing him as Director, the company grew rapidly and day trips and holidays were soon introduced. In the 90’s the company rebranded as Waterside Tours and the excursion and holiday program was properly launched. Waterside Tours is now run by Jacqueline and they continue to run day trips and excursions, holidays both in the UK and abroad and o er private coach hire, despite the setbacks the company experienced during the pandemic. To commemorate the anniversary, Waterside Tours put on a celebratory coach trip to one of their favourite excursion destinations and enjoyed a 3 hour cruise and celebration aboard the Kennet & Avon Horse Drawn Barge including a ploughman’s lunch and a glass of bubbly. e team from Waterside Tours were joined by a coach full of customers, driven by Lee Pearce, on the day with speeches from owner Jacqueline Withey, General Manager Fiona Campbell and their longest serving driver, Kevin Beckett who has been with the company for 34 years. In her speech Jacqueline said: “We love doing what my bottom’! ” To see their latest list of excursions and holidays please visit: www.watersidetours.co.uk or see their advertisement on page 37.
