Explorer to tell of his adventures
COLONEL John Blashford-Snell OBE, one of the world's most renowned explorers, is giving a talk in Pilton Village Hall in aid of the Royal British Legion, Pilton branch, at 7pm on Friday, December 12.
Colonel Blashford-Snell supports numerous charities, working with underprivileged youth in the UK. He undertakes countless community aid projects in remote parts of the world.
His exploring career started in 1968 when he led a team to explore and make the first descent of the infamous Blue Nile. One of his main interests is in the wildlife he has encountered in the jungles and desolate places of his expeditions.

CFZ PEOPLE: Anne-Marie Downes
My niece Anne-Marie (my brother's eldest daughter) was on TV this week giving a speech in the House of Commons. If you want to see her she is in about 56mins. Apart from inheriting her old uncle's good looks and charm, I think she has an interesting future as an orator, and I am very proud of her....

CFZ PEOPLE: Joyce Howarth (1954-2014)
I have known something was coming for days; there have been signs and portents a-plenty. Now I know where they were leading.
Goodbye, my dear. I love you and miss you more than I can say....
Farewell to Thee! But not farewell
To all my fondest thoughts of Thee;
Within my heart they still shall dwell
And they shall cheer and comfort me. Anne Bronte

CFZ PEOPLE: John Downes (1925-2006)
My father died eight years ago this morning,
and not a day goes by when I don't remember him
Home is the sailor, home from sea:
Her far-borne canvas furled
The ship pours shining on the quay
The plunder of the world.
Home is the hunter from the hill:
Fast in the boundless snare
All flesh lies taken at his will
And every fowl of air.
'Tis evening on the moorland free,
The starlit wave is still:
Home is the sailor from the sea,
The hunter from the hill.
Her far-borne canvas furled
The ship pours shining on the quay
The plunder of the world.
Home is the hunter from the hill:
Fast in the boundless snare
All flesh lies taken at his will
And every fowl of air.
'Tis evening on the moorland free,
The starlit wave is still:
Home is the sailor from the sea,
The hunter from the hill.
Home Is the Sailor --- A.E. Housman

Today my father would have been 89. We disliked each other intensely for much of his life, but I owe all that I am to him.
