November 2014 Scorpios are extremely dynamic and energetic. They are given to powerful
emotional extremes and are often driven by a powerful internal desire to achieve.
Scorpios make excellent leaders because their desire to achieve greatness
outweighs all else. Scorpios have a great love of life -- and they excel at most
things they do. Whether working or playing, Scorpios do it to the extreme --
determined to "live life to the fullest".
Individuals born under the astrological sign of Scorpio are often given to
emotional outbursts, or periods of depression, anger or jealousy. Because of their
intense desire to succeed, they can often be overly self-critical -- blaming
themselves for things they are not actually responsible for.
When Scorpios become angered by someone, they can take months (or
sometimes years) to forgive and forget. As they say, "beware the sting of
Scorpio".
Scorpios tend to be very popular and well-liked. Their natural dynamism and high energy level are
attractive qualities. They excel at athletics and competition of all kinds. They make natural leaders and
are often looked up to as role-models in their fields.
Scorpios are also excellent problem-solvers, and are unlikely to "give up" when obstacles appear in
their paths.
In the workplace, Scorpios are frequently found at the top. They tend to be aggressive, and goal-
oriented -- stopping at nothing to achieve their personal success. They also tend to be vindictive and
combative to anyone who stands in their path.
Scorpios are extremely observant and analytical and like the desert scorpion, are extremely good at
spotting opportunities others may have missed.
Scorpios tend to set their sights on someone they want to be with -- and stop at nothing until that

Scorpio finally settles into a relationship, they tend to become much calmer and more balanced people -
- but the road to that stability can be a bumpy one, full of emotional outbursts, passion and sometimes

2 B4RN Broadband for Hornby & Farleton
B4RN for Hornby and Farleton is a community project that is working to bring the hyperfast B4RN broadband service to Hornby and Farleton. At present, the team is working hard to finalize route details with landowners. The route from Wray to Farleton is close to being finalised and over 750m of duct has been moled into the ground on this route. Weather permitting, there should be plenty of digging for the volunteers over the coming weeks. If you wish to receive regular updates about the roll-out in Hornby and Farleton, please sign up for our newsletter here: http://tinyletter.com/B4RN-Hornby If you are interested in a B4RN broadband connection, are thinking of investing, wish to get involved or would like any other information about the project, please email: [email protected]
Hornby-with-Farleton Parish Council – October 2014 Meeting Stuart Booth from JWPC Limited attended the meeting regarding the proposed development in Hornby. He represented his client who is currently developing proposals for providing new housing to the northern end of Hornby. The main concern raised by the Councillors was that the proposed access is off Royal Oak Meadow which they did not feel was at all suitable. The Highways Department will be invited to a site visit to discuss this further. Another planning application had been received regarding the erection of 9 dwellings on Station Road. Once again, the main concern was access to this site, therefore the Highways Department will also be asked to attend a site visit to discuss this further. 2 new seats for the cradle seat swing will be ordered for the playground. The Highways Department and Environmental Health will be contacted once again regarding the condition of the old hairdressers on Station Road. A complaint has been received regarding the quantity and speed of vehicles using the farm lane next to the Institute. The Parish Council cannot be directly involved with this matter due to the fact that this is private land. However, if anyone manages to note particulars of any vehicles being driven inconsiderately on this lane, then we would ask that this information is passed on to the police. More detailed minutes will be available in the folder in the Institute and on the Hornby website - www.hornbyvillage.org.uk, once approved at the next meeting. The next Parish Council meeting will take place on Thursday 13
th November at
7:45pm in Hornby Institute. Anyone who wishes to attend would be most welcome. An agenda will be displayed in each of the Parish notice boards on Sunday 9

Autumn Clothes Swish Many thanks to all who came to BUY, and or SELL items at the evening event. Almost £400 was raised for the Institute. There were more sellers than
buyers!! Remaining clothes were delivered to the Ukrainian Choir, and some have gone to a dress agency, so there may be a further trickle of funds. Anne Lee

3 Thank you from Rachel Fisher
Hello all – I just wanted to thank everybody in the village for the kindness you have shown
me since Shaun’s heart attack. I feel so lucky to be part of such a caring community that has
enabled me to visit Shaun in Wythenshawe Hospital every day since the attack in September.
Shaun is doing well but requires a heart transplant. He is now listed on the urgent transplant
list and we await the call to say a heart is available.
Because of the heart attack I didn’t manage to run the great north in September – I have
managed to speak to most people who sponsored me and want to thank you for allowing me to
donate monies collected in to St John’s Hospice – I also gave in the money from my august
coffee morning and the total the hospice got (including gift aid) was £259. 45. Thank you so
much for your support in this fundraising too.
MacMillan Coffee Morning
Hornby St Margaret’s Primary School PTA would like to thank all those who made the MacMillan Coffee Morning a success and helped to raised £371.12 for the deserved charity.
Thank you all who came along on the morning and enjoyed coffee, cakes and biscuits with us and all those who gave so generously. Many thanks go to the school for allowing us to host the event and to all the pupils who helped on the morning. Special thanks go to our supportive local businesses who gave such kind raffle prizes. A huge thank you to parents and friends for their donations of cakes and biscuits and many thanks to the PTA members, past and present, for all your valuable help on the day. You are all very much appreciated.
FOCUS SCHOOL – HORNBY CAMPUS Hello Hornby Contact readers, we hope those that attended our Coffee Morning in
September enjoyed it. The event was organised by year 10 with help from their
parents. Altogether we raised about £300.00 for the Albania Music School and the
Bethany Orphanage in Tanzania.
Lego Man came to visit the juniors on 25th September; they made some marvellous
creations from his Lego workshops. Some juniors said it was “Absolutely awesome” and “really
great fun”.
On Thursday 2nd October year 7 went on a visit to Vindolana, as part of their History lessons.
Some students commented that it was “very interesting, wish we could have done some
excavating! I would definitely go again”.
The week beginning 6th October was Languages week. Students were taught a range of lan-
guages from Swedish to Chinese. Mrs Midgley from Wray talked to the juniors about how to
speak in Arabic.
This month, Discovery House are having a Table Tennis Tournament as a way of raising money
traditional dry stone walling and mortar stone walling as well as flag laying and
stone facing. All tasks considered; whether it’s wall gapping on a small scale or projects of a larger nature. There is no charge for an estimate so please feel free

Hornby Flower Club Helen and Ann from Greenfoot Garden Centre in Wray were our guest presenters in
October. They brought with them an impressive array of colourful pots and plants
and proceeded to show us how to get the most from each container for now and into
the spring.
In each container place a good layer of compost then some bulbs, more compost
followed by another layer of bulbs and so on (depending on the size of the
container). The final planting at the top is something showy for now such as violas,
heathers or other winter hardy plants.
For our November meeting we look forward to a return visit by Joan Bentley from
Cartmel whose theme is A Winter Wonderland. Joan is a very talented flower
arranger-demonstrator and earlier this year was awarded a British Empire Medal for
services to charity and the community of Grange-over-Sands.
We hope you will join us on Thursday the 20th November at 7.30pm in Hornby
