Rotherwick Church Bell Tolls in Memoriam
On Wednesday 14th March at Rotherwick at noon we will be tolling the bell in the time honoured way of nine strikes to represent a man (six for a woman and three a child) and after a pause 100 strikes to commemo-rate the centenary of the First World War death of Frederick Holloway who died on 14th March 1918. Frederick was born at Greywell, in 1893. His parents had six other chil-dren. In 1901 the family were living at Greywell where Henry was a la-bourer on a nearby farm. Sadly Frederick’s mother died when he was still young and Henry brought up his children alone. After leaving school Frederick joined his Father working on the land as a labourer. By 1911 Frederick, now 18, was still living at home and working as a Cowman on a local farm. In 1911/12 he joined the 1st Battalion of the Royal Hamp-shire Regiment. When war broke out in 1914 Frederick was one of a relatively small number of well trained British Army regulars and arrived in France in Au-gust 1914. Frederick took part in the Battles of the Marne, Aisne, Messines and Ar-mentieres and on 1st April 1915 at Ligny Frederick was awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) for gallantry in the field in the face of the enemy (the DCM is only second to the Victoria Cross). Frederick survived the Somme battles and continued to serve with the Hampshire regiment but at some stage he was transferred to the 2nd Battalion. In the winter of 1917 Frederick returned home on leave and married his fiancé Daisy Hedges. They were married at Hartley Wintney and settled at 26 The Street, Rotherwick. In March 1918 the Germans launched a massive offensive that smashed through the Allied lines and for the first time made real gains in territory. Frederick’s battalion took up positions north of Passchendaele on 7th March. The war diary for the 14th March again records a deceptively ‘fairly fine and quiet day’, it also records '1 Died of Wounds received in action'. Sadly this was Frederick, who had obviously been badly wounded on one of the previous days in the line. Frederick was buried by his battalion at what up until December 1917 had been a casualty clearing centre, near Poperinge, Belgium. There were already many soldiers buried there and after the war it was re-named The Nine Elms British Cemetery. Thank you to Martin Barnes for sharing this research by Andy Cresswell

Continued from p. 12 [12.5%, £10.99] that was a pale gold colour and blended from the usual three champagne grapes. It had a fine bouquet and had elegant and complex flavours. Slightly off-dry this was an easy drinking quaffable bubbly at an affordable price. The next wine was an Alba-rino Abellio 2016 Rias Baixas, Spain [12.5%, £5.99] that was a pale lemon colour. Full of fresh peach and red apple flavours, this was a juicy and attractive wine with a dry finish. The following wine unlike the first two from Lidl’s Core Range, was a special promotion for the Christmas period – a Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico Sureriore 2016, Italy [13.5%, £6.99]. Light gold in colour with herby [fennel?] characters on the nose this un-oaked wine was fresh and well-balanced, and according to our Presenter ‘mouth-watering and stun-ning’. The last white wine is a recent addition to the Core Range – a ‘Winemakers’ Char-donnay 2016, Coonawarra, South Australia [12.5%, £5.79] Pale lemon in colour with aro-mas of citrus, red apple, tropical fruit and smoky spice and green melon, pineapple fla-vours with mineral tones and woody notes, this was a fresh tasting Chardonnay without being over-oaked; lower in alcohol, too!
Our first red wine was a Montepulciano d’Abruzzo 2016, Italy [13%, £3.99] that had a deep plummy red colour. Fruity on the nose and with delicate morello-cherry fruit on the palate this was a very pleasant and easy drinking wine. Lightly chilled, we were informed it is even better! It was followed by a St. Emilion Grand Cru 2015, Bordeaux [13%, £10.99] deep red in colour and full of plummy fruit, characteristic of Merlot [80%] this was soft and rounded with subtle oak and very acceptable at the price! For our third red we returned to Australia – ‘Winemakers’ Shiraz 2016, Barossa, South Australia [14%, £5.99] for a dense black-cherry coloured wine that was full of ripe black fruits and hints of pepper and spice. On the palate it was warm and full-bodied. Our next wine was tasted ‘blind’ and we had to guess what it was – some got further than others with this which turned out to be a Batur-rica Tarragona Gran Reserva, Spain, a refreshing change from Rioja and only £4.99! We ended the evening with a dessert wine – Tokaji Aszu Grand Tokaji, Hungary [9%, £13.99/50cl] that was golden in colour. There was intense sweetness on the nose with hints of tinned peaches; not as rich and full as more expensive equivalents, a pared down version perhaps, but still enjoyable!
Our grateful thanks go to Richard for an interesting and enlightening evening about Lidl’s wine philosophy and practice. No doubt more of us will be popping in to a store for one of tonight’s wines or a promotion!
Whitewater Valley Wine Society normally meets on the second Wednesday of every month, at The Raven Hotel, 7.45 for an 8.00 pm start. Further details are available from the current Chairperson, Margaret Steer [[email protected]] or from the Secretary, Keith Cooper on 07976272822 or from our website www.whitewaterwine.org.uk.

Hook and Odiham RFC
For our first match
of 2018 in the re-
structured Snows
Group Solent 3
league Hook &
Odiham travelled to
the Isle of Wight to
play Sandown and
Shanklin 2nds on 13
January. Hook and
Odiham found
themselves 10-22 up
half way through the
second half courtesy
of tries by Terry
Robson, Daniel Gibb and Col Lewis with Phil Waite successfully kicking
one penalty and two conversions. Sandown and Shanklin fought back to
20-22 but our team held on to secure the first victory of the year.
On 20 January we went on to play a United Services 2nd XV side that in-
cluded several players who have been representing their first XV this sea-
son. The resulting match was a tough fixture which ended in a disap-
pointing 7-35 defeat at home but the team kept their spirit up throughout,
with the help of rousing local support.
On 27 January Hook and Odiham were away again, this time to Farnbor-
ough 2nd XV. We put out a strong side and went on to record a satisfying
34-12 victory.
There are two league fixtures to look forward to in March:
3 March Home v. Isle of Wight 2nd XV
24 March Away v. Tottonians 3rd XV
Meanwhile off the pitch Chairman Carl Wadmore, Membership Secre-
tary Stu Oakley and Fixture Dave Doherty are all delighted to have got
through the first month of the year as they all did ‘Dry January’ to raise
money for Enzo Thompson, the 5 year old son of one of our players. En-
zo suffers from cerebral palsy and his family are trying to raise money to
fund stem cell treatment for him which could help improve his quality of
life. The guys have raised over £600 so far but the page is open until the

Bags will be delivered to residents with the Rotherwick News so please keep these in a safe place. Simply fill with your unwanted clothing and drop at the school on Monday 23rd April by 9am. If you prefer you may also leave bags under the covered porch of the school on Friday 20th April in the afternoon or over the course of that weekend. If you have any queries or feel that your place of work may also like to be involved, then please contact Lottie Girling on [email protected] to arrange for more bags. We look forward to helping you with your Spring Cleaning!

WHITEWATER VALLEY WINE SOCIETY January 2018 tasting Selected Wines from Lidl Stores presented by Richard Bampfield MW
There are only a small number of Masters of Wine in the world, so it is always a privilege to be able to welcome one of their ranks to present to us at the Whitewater Valley Wine Society. Undoubtedly the highest recognition in the wine world, their members have all passed a rigorous examination and collectively strive to promote wine education throughout the globe. So it was with the greatest of pleasure that we welcomed Richard Bampfield MW, to present to us this month. Richard is consultant to Lidl’s wine buying team and shares his vast experience with them. He has a huge influence on the wines which appear on their shelves, including their award winning Cellar Collection range. Richard Bampfield graduated in French from Cambridge in 1981 and immediately decid-ed the wine trade was where he could put the language to best use. He managed retail wine shops in the North West of England for JW Lees Brewers for 7 years, then spent a year getting his hands dirty in vineyards around the world, also working in wine cellars in California and Australia. Having passed the Master of Wine Exam in 1990, he joined the Australian producer, Brown Brothers, and managed their European operations until 1999. He left them to set up his own company, specialising in public relations and offer-ing wine talks, tours and courses. Richard is a past Chairman of the Association of Wine Educators and was the European Champagne Ambassador 2009.
