Jenny is running the marathon on 6th November in aid of the RSPCA and assures us that this is her last big challenge of the year! Said Jenny: I cant quite believe how quickly it has come around as I have been so busy with other things! I am sure the crowds support will push me round the course.
FRESH from scaling Mount Kilimanjaro, Hooles intrepid fitness fanatic Jenny Beyer is off to America next month to take part in the New York City Marathon.
Im not really that competitive so I will be quite happy to just complete the course! However if I do beat my London Marathon time of 4 hours 40 secs I would be rather happy and would treat myself to an extra large hot chocolate at Starbucks! I think I am most excited about going to New York as there are Starbucks cafes on every corner! I think I may have to pop in if theres one on the course!

Sainsburys set to move in IT looks like the former Peters Hi-Fi premises on the corner of Faulkner Street and Charles Street will become a Sainsburys Local store. The retail giant has submitted plans to Cheshire West and Chester Council for a small supermarket on the site. Mobile phone mast protest PLANS for a mobile phone mast at Brookside Terrace have been put forward. One resident living nearby told us that she would be objecting to the scheme because she feared the health implications of a mast so close to houses. The proposed mast will support six antennas including an adjacent cabinet. The councils planners are due to make a decision within a matter of months so objections need to be in early. Local councillor Bob Thompson will be calling the application in, supported by fellow councillors from Hoole and Newton.

At just after 2.15pm on Sunday 9th October police were called to Hoole Road after a 40-year-old man was found with serious head injuries. The man, who has been confirmed as being from the Chester area, was taken to the Countess of Chester Hospital where he is been treated for injuries which police have described as severe. Police arrested two men in Ermine Road, Hoole, after the assault which is believed to have happened on the street.

HOOLE RANGERS FC
Rangers prove they have what it takes to survive - and thrive in the top division
Hoole Rangers 1st team have played mainly cup games in the past month, winning by 5-1 against Barcode from Division 2, winning 3-1 against Division 1 side Shaftsbury, but losing 1-3 against a very strong Christleton side from West Cheshire division 1, where we put up a great fight and showed us we have the players to compete at this level. In our only league game during this period, we came out as 3-2 winners over Saughall Thursday, despite having our goalkeeper sent off early in the second half where the resultant penalty made the scores level at 2-2. A determined effort by 10 men was rewarded with a late winner. So, the season thus far shows great promise, we are currently mid table in the premier league, but if we win our 4 games in hand, we could go within 3 points of the current leaders. Reserves Following their promotion to Division 1 this year, the reserves are finding life a little tough. This is partly due to the higher standard of opposition, but they have also paid the price for an unusual number of players being unavailable across both teams, which has meant they have had to send out weakened teams each week. This has resulted in them losing all 4 league games in the last month, though the last 2 games showed real signs of improvement, only losing out to a narrow margin. Despite this temporary setback, their early season league win, when they were able to turn out a stronger side means they are still not at the bottom of their league. We are confident we have a squad of players good enough for this level, and expect to turn things around once they all become available. Training has been particularly successful this year. Adam Bebington has taken over this role and has implemented many new ideas, including having guest trainers. To-date, Adam has brought down Paul Hughes, ex Christleton manager, Gary Powell and George Horan, Chester FC 1st team coach and captain, plus Chris Neal, Shrewsbury Town goalkeeper, who took Hoole Rangers keepers for a focused session. The players have really responded to the new training with numbers well up from last season, and everyone enjoying the variation this brings. Another new initiative we have recently started is to open up a Saturday afternoon family room in the New Scene building, where the players partners, wives, and children can come and socialise while the games are taking place. The room overlooks the pitch so everyone can watch the game while keeping warm and dry. Refreshments are available and games are provided for the children. We are only in the second week of a trial period but the attendance has been great and the feedback from families very positive. We have the option to make this a permanent offering if it continues to be successful. We are consulting with New Scene and the Cheshire West and Chester council to arrange to have floodlights put up at New Scene to allow us to train throughout the winter on the grassed area. In the short term we have changed the training from Tuesday to Wednesday nights, when we train with another local team under floodlights at Christleton. We are always looking for good new players so if you are interested in playing for a great club, with strong ambitions, please contact us and we will advise when and where the training will be.

Recently I attended a 50th Birthday celebration with a very close friend of ours, Sue, my wife, had known Pam since they were 11, they meet at secondary school! that means they had 39 years of memories, including some very happy ones and some equally as sad. We were looking through some photo albums, which recorded some of these events through some specific photographs at christenings, weddings, holidays and Christmas times. We had great fun looking through old photos and it certainly stirred up lots of memories as we remembered the stories that lay behind each of the photos. To be able to remember is wonderful, the brains ability to store, retain, and recall information creates memories. As we get older memories become more important to Andy Glover has lived in us, remembering our childhood, remembering loved ones who have passed Hoole with his wife Sue away and remembering those special occassions we celebrate within life. for 22 years. Andy began Of course not all memories are happy ones, one of the amazing dimensions at Hoole Baptist Church, of remembering is that emotions are attched to our memories, so when we on Westminster Road, remember someone or some event we encounter afreash the emotions that as Youth Pastor, before belong to that memory. becoming the Pastor and November is a month for remembering and as a nation we remember two now Team Leader. specific things: Remember remember the fifth of November Gunpowder, treason and plot. I see no reason why gunpowder, treason Should ever be forgot... Words of Remember Remember refer to Guy Fawkes with origins in 17th century English history. On the 5th November 1605 Guy Fawkes was caught in the cellars of the Houses of Parliament with several dozen barrels of gunpowder. Guy Fawkes was subsequently tried as a traitor with his co-conspirators for plotting against the government. Fawkes was sentenced to death and the form of the execution was one of the most horrendous ever practised (hung, drawn and quartered) which reflected the serious nature of the crime of treason. The following year in 1606 it became an annual custom for the King and Parliament to commission a sermon to commemorate the event. This practice, together with the nursery rhyme, ensured that this crime would never be forgotten! Then on Remembrance Day, the 11th November, this day chosen because it was the day that World War One ended in 1918, when the armistice was signed in Northern France, at 5am. Six hours later, the fighting stopped, and to commemorate this there is a two-minute silence in the UK at 11am. This year is a very special occasion as it will be 11am on the 11/11/11. A poem called For the Fallen is often read aloud on the occasion; the most famous stanza of which reads: They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. I dont know if youve ever given any thought to the fact that God remembers. God is omniscient, by definition. That means He knows everything there is to know. He has perfect memory of each and every thing including the wrong that weve committed. When we remember some memories we will have feelings of regret and remorse, sometimes we would wish we could change something that was said or done by us or to us. By experiencing Gods forgiveness we can move on from these feelings. God does not mysteriously and suddenly forget all the bad and wrong things but because of the death of Jesus he chooses to remember them no more this is the hope of the Christian faith, forgiveness from God via the experience of knowing Jesus enables us to forgive and be forgiven so that we can be free from the effects of some of the bad memories that we so easily remember and become entrapped within the emotions of these memories.
