Welcome to the February issue of Consett Magazine, dear readers! As we trudge through the shortest month of the year, we’ve got a cracking lineup that’ll warm your hearts faster than a steaming cup of tea on a frosty morning.

First up, Joyce Shaw takes us on a delightful trip down memory lane with her tales of teaching in the swinging 60s. From sneaky boyfriends escaping through windows to the scandalous act of wearing trousers, it’s a reminder that even in the “good old days,” mischief was alive and well. Who knew that curlers and a maroon dressing gown could strike such fear into the hearts of students?

Speaking of fear, our very own George Ledger introduces us to Kieran Jewitt, the tree whisperer of Lanchester. This arboreal acrobat can fell a 100-foot pine without so much as disturbing your garden gnomes. It’s enough to make you look at your hedge trimmers with a newfound respect!

Now, if you’re feeling a bit short-changed by February’s brevity, Marco Elsy’s got you covered with a hilarious history lesson on why this month got the short end of the calendar stick. Spoiler alert: it involves Roman emperors, lunar confusion, and a dash of British weather complaints. Classic Consett, really.

For those of you feeling a bit Eeyore-ish this Valentine’s Day, Lorraine Weightman‘s story might just be the hunny you need. It’s a tale of accidental time travel, talking animals, and tequila-flavoured honey. Trust me, it makes perfect sense after a few jars down at the local.

Speaking of perfect sense, the Empire Theatre is offering free tickets to some cracking shows. From 90s nostalgia to Madonna madness and true crime chills, there’s something for everyone. And if that doesn’t float your boat, Marco Elsy’s back with a survival guide for Consett’s singletons. Remember, nothing says “I love me” quite like being wrapped in seaweed like a human sushi roll.

But wait, there’s more! We’ve got Greencroft Bottling looking for new recruits (wine not give it a go?), Shotley Bridge Nursery teaching tots to be one with nature, and Leadgate’s very own powerlifting didgeridoo player. You couldn’t make this stuff up if you tried!

So there you have it, folks – a little bit of everything to get you through this pint-sized month. Whether you’re planning to climb a tree, host an anti-Valentine’s Day bash, or just curl up with a good story, we’ve got you covered.

Here’s to February – it may be short, but in Consett, we know how to make every day count!
