TWINKLE HOUSE
ON THE MOVE!
Much–loved Skem charity announces big
expansion plans on eve of 10th birthday
Report by Henry James
A CHARITY dear to the hearts of people in
Skelmersdale is leaving its Sandy Lane site
after fears its present base was too small for it
to survive.
But after securing a move to Gillibrands,
Twinkle House can now mark its 10th
anniversary by transferring to bigger, better
premises in a move exclusively revealed to the
Champion this week.
The announcement will see the organisation
take up a new–10 year lease at the former base
of The Sensory Zones in Gorsey Place.
Twinkle House has been searching for new
premises to expand its charity work for a
number of years due to an increasing demand
for its services from people in the town and
beyond.
A spokeswoman for Twinkle House revealed
that a lack of space at its Sandy Lane site could
have led to the charity closing down.
For a decade, Twinkle House has helped
children and young people with disabilities
and additional needs. They have helped over
3,000 people each year and have provided
support for anxiety, stress, behaviour
management, sleep disturbances, and sensory
impairments.

universities across the country on 21 key
indicators, judged to be the most important
aspects of the student experience.
Edge Hill was ranked in the top four
‘modern’ universities based on more than
50 responses to the questions posed to
members of the YouthSight national student
panel.
They were asked to score a number of
factors, which included their experiences of
the quality of lectures and staff, social life,
community atmosphere, the environment,
industry contacts, security, support and
welfare.
Participants scored how their university
performed on a seven–point scale, and each
attribute was assigned a weight reflecting
its importance within the overall student
experience. Edge Hill achieved a six out of
seven in the ‘I would recommend my
university to a friend’ key indicator.
The Ormskirk site also scored joint second
nationally and top in the North West for its
environment on campus and around the
university and achieved some of the highest
results in the country for its facilities,
accommodation and relationships with
teaching staff.
Invested
In addition, the university scored top in the
North West for its support and welfare,
centralised facilities and Students’ Union.
The campus was also independently
assessed by the Complete University Guide
2014 to have the lowest crime rates in the
North West and the fifth most crime–free
university in England and Wales.
Dr John Cater, vice–chancellor of Edge Hill,
said: “We were in no doubt that we provide
a fantastic experience for our students, from
the high–quality teaching and industry
contacts, to the campus, facilities and
environment where we have invested close
to £200million over the last decade.
“However, naturally we are delighted to
have been ranked so highly by our students
and are able to demonstrate this by our
position in this influential league table. It
independently shows that we provide one of
the best student experiences, not just in the
North West, but in the country.”

nominees until the end of the month.
Karen Fitzgerald, of the Community
Foundation for Lancashire who is part of the
panel which will pick the Professional
Services Business of the Year, said the
judges had an “almost impossible task” to
pick the winners.
She said: “The judges’ work has already
started because we have whittled down a
record number of more than 1,200
applicants to the 119 businesses which will
be represented at this first round of judging.
“To just get to this stage we have had to
rule out some fantastic businesses to ensure
those on the shortlists are the cream of the
crop, now the BIBAs’ judges have to use all
their knowledge and experience to ensure
only the very best of the best make it to the
finals.
“The Community Foundation for

Clitheroe and Investec, is proud to sponsor

The businesses which make it to the
awards’ prizegiving ceremony will receive a
visit to their premises from the BIBAs’
judging panels between June 9 and July 1 so
judges can have a first–hand look at the
firms in action.
Babs Murphy, chief executive of awards’
organisers, the North and Western
Lancashire Chamber of Commerce, said the
organisation of the BIBAs’ big night at the
iconic Blackpool Tower in September is
already underway.
She said: “The entertainment is booked
although we are having to keep the names of
our acts under wraps until the night, and the
preparations which make the BIBAs one of
the best nights out in Lancashire’s business
calendar are already underway.
“Our team has already started to scope out
the Tower venue and we are meeting on a
regular basis to ensure nothing is left to
chance.
“We recognise the hard work which our
BIBAs applicants put in to getting to our
prizegiving ceremony so we pull out all the
stops to make it an unforgettable night.”

TV showcase for
garden guru David
Designer’s work is featured on new show
Report by Henry James
A GARDEN designer from Skelmersdale, who
counts former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr
among his ex–clients, has been given the
opportunity to showcase some of his best work
on television.
David Andersen has teamed up with
gardening expert and TV presenter Alan
Titchmarsh on his new programme ‘Love Your
Garden.’
And one of David’s designs in Bolton is
included in the show as an example of
excellence.
The ITV programme features North West
families all of whom have a child with special
needs and the programme provides them with
a complete garden makeover in just four days.
The production company behind the show
contacted David after sifting through many
designs from the members of the Society of
Garden Designers.
Filming took place over a day and included a
film crew of four and David and his team
working with them to ensure the garden
looked just right for the cameras.
The garden in Bolton has been described as “a
stunning example of a contemporary family
garden full of flair yet eminently practical” and
was completed in two months.
The family involved have one child and
another ‘on the way’ and wanted to be able to
let them play in the garden but also wanted to
showcase their own creativity and create a
haven to relax in.
Skelmersdale–based David has been involved
in garden design for more than 25 years and
has commissioned work for leading UK
businessmen and Premiership footballers.
He has also worked on large–scale set design
projects with some of the UK’s most respected
film directors, including David Lean and
Stanley Kubrick.
Commenting on the partnership with ITV and
Alan Titchmarsh, David said: “As a garden
designer it’s great that there’s such
high–quality programmes on TV exploring the
UK’s gardens and the inspiration behind the
Skelmersdale–based garden guru David
Andersen with TV presenter Alan
Titchmarsh.
design.
“Working with Alan and the team at ITV was a
pleasure and we are delighted that our work
has been recognised in this way as he
specifically chose our designs for the show.
“The garden in Bolton is a great example of
how beautiful a practical garden can be, and
what can be achieved balancing so many
demands put on it. We always start with
evaluating the ‘spirit’ of the place and then
build the design around that so that it takes on
board the local environment, climatic
conditions etc.”
Waqas Hashemi, whose garden is featured on
the programme, added: “We commissioned
David to create and design a contemporary
garden to reflect our mood and personality as
he is a paragon of creativity and
implementation. Not only did he answer our
challenging brief but understood our
underlying sentiment. David has a real passion
for his craft and it shows.”

A GREAT–grandad from
Scarisbrick is celebrating
after winning more than
£50,000 on the Euromillions
lottery.
And 70–year–old Keith
Birtles admitted that he had
hardly stopped shaking since
discovering he had scooped
£50,904.30 in the
twice–weekly draw.
“I checked my numbers
after the draw on Friday, May
9 and thought there must’ve
been a mistake and it couldn’t
possibly be real. But I woke
the next morning, checked
again and discovered that I’d
won!”
Keith, a regular lottery
player, had never counted
himself as a lucky person
before but now believes that
may have changed.
“I have had a few small wins
on Euromillions and the
Lotto but this is my first major
win. I change my numbers
now and again but right now
I am feeling incredibly lucky!
“I was sitting in the kitchen
checking my numbers on the
television and I couldn’t
believe it. I just started to
shake uncontrollably when I
realised I had matched all
five main numbers.
“The next day I called my
sons to double–check the

confirmed it was true and

Keith, a retired

now enjoy his winnings with
his family, including sons
Peter and Michael, as well as

Trinity triumph in
battle of town’s
young entrepreneurs
Organisers and judges hail ‘phenomenal success’
of The Skelmersdale Apprentice
Report by Henry James
PUPILS at Trinity CE & Methodist
Primary School have been named
winners of this year’s The
Skelmersdale Apprentice.
The competition reached its climax
with the 14 participating groups
sending representatives to West
Lancashire Investment Centre to take
part in the grand finale.
The task was to come up with a new
promotion that championed a healthy
lifestyle and which could be marketed
through the product the children had
been designing over the previous
rounds.
Investment for this promotion then
had to be sought from a ‘Dragons
Den’ body comprised of
representatives from PepsiCo, West
Lancashire College, Shares
Lancashire and RDPO Enterprises.
Mayor and Mayoress of West
Lancashire, Councillor Iain and Mrs
Beverley Ashcroft, and John Nelson,
head of leisure and cultural services
for West Lancashire Borough Council,
also went along to support the event
and listen to the children’s
presentations, which was greatly
appreciated by all.
All participating groups worked
tirelessly to come up with a creative
idea and robust financial plan to
present before being grilled by the
waiting ‘Dragons’.
A spokesman for the event said: “The
standard of the work was outstanding
with many blue chip companies no
doubt wishing their boardroom was
full of such inspiration and
motivation!”

the initiative, said: “This has been an
absolutely fantastic competition that
has showcased the amazing
entrepreneurial talents of

“The quality of the work, dedication

Report by Henry James
ALMOST 3,000 young people from across
Lancashire took their first steps towards
planning their future education at a free
event hosted by Edge Hill University.
Pupils from high schools, sixth forms and
colleges throughout the county gathered at
the Ormskirk site for the Lancashire Higher
Education Convention.
The Year 12 and 13 students (age 16 to 18)
interacted with and gained vital
information from more than 130
universities from across the country.
The event is the first stage for some young
people to begin to explore which university
they can study at, which are the best courses
to study and the likely cost of their
chosen option.
Seminars ran throughout the day on topics
such on choosing what and where to study,
student finance and how to apply for
university, as well as subject–related talks.
The event was organised by The Via
Partnership (Via), a social business based in
Leyland, and was sponsored by UCAS, the
organisation responsible for managing
applications to higher education courses in
the UK.
Suzanne Murray, business development
manager at Via, said: “This is an extremely

with their career options at a higher level
and for them to talk face–to–face with
university representatives to gain a flavour
of what to expect. I would like to thank Edge
Hill University for use of their campus and
tremendous hospitality.”
John Hill from Hutton Grammar School
said: “We were all impressed with the
smooth running and effectiveness of the
convention. In my opinion, it was the best
convention since we started attending these
events.”
The event was one of 50 held across the UK
to raise awareness of the university options
and the factors needed to be considered
when applying for higher education.

PepsiCo team aiming
for Challenge success
Report by Henry James
SKELMERSDALE United FC Youth
Academy, which has a number of
teams for youngsters, is going from
strength to strength.
The sides have had successful
seasons in competitions and leagues
both in the town and across the
region.
Leading the way were the under–18s
team who were crowned winners of
the Liverpool FA County Youth Cup.
After disposing of rivals from Bootle,
Ashton Town and Marine en route,
Skem were due to face St Helens in
the final only for the Merseyside outfit
to default.
The team, which features players as
young as 15, currently play in the
Premier Division of the North West
Youth Alliance Football League,
having been promoted last season.
There was also personal glory for
goalkeeper Marcus Burgess who was
recently handed the England
Schoolboys No.1 shirt and was a
member of the England Under–18s
squad in Italy.
Also this year no fewer than seven
youth players have been named in the
Skelmersdale United first team squad
at one time or another.
There was success towo for the
under–17s who were runners–up in
two cup finals, while the under–12s
were the cup winners in the
Skelmersdale Junior League.
Pirate ship naming
competition winner
IN our April 30 edition the winner of the
competition to name the playzone pirate ship
at Skelmersdale Concourse Shopping Centre
was incorrectly named as Liliana Gonzalez. In
fact, that is the name of the child’s mother. The
winner was four–year–old Savannah
Macpherson. Unfortunately the information
supplied to us, which we used in good faith,
was incorrect and we apologise for any
misunderstanding.

County Youth Cup success.
Club official Karen Delooze said: “It
has been a great season for all the
teams and we are now looking for
players of all ages for next season.
“We are also looking to recruit
volunteers to help with media, admin,
managing, refereeing, and helping to
build school links.
“The academy has recently been
awarded its Chartered Standard
Health Check for the third season.
This is a great achievement for the
club and rewards all the hard work
our volunteers and players put in all
year round.
“We will also help members who
want to work towards their FA
1127964
1127098
coaching badges and further FA
education.
“In recent weeks two more players
completed their FA referee badges
funded by the club. We have also
helped our under–17s manager, Dom
Finnigan with costs for his UEFA B
badge.
“We are looking to form a girls
section and anyone out there who
would like to run this section, please
get in touch.”
Meanwhile, the club is also seeking
sponsors for next season and anyone

Brownies and Guides who took part in the ‘Big Sleep for ME‘.
Code1069527
‘Fundraising? We can
do it in our sleep!’
MEMBERS of a local
Brownies and Guides unit
held a sponsored event with a
difference to raise money for
research into an illness which
currently has no cure.
The girls of the 1st Ormskirk
Brownies and Guides held a
‘Big Sleep for ME Film Party’
on Friday, May 16 which
raised £170 for Invest in ME,
an independent UK charity
which is campaigning for
bio–medical research into
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis
and to establish a national
strategy of biomedical
research into treatment.
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis
(ME) is a chronic
neurological disease which
causes severe exhaustion,
pain, nausea, headaches and
poor concentration.
Currently there is no cure,
few treatments and no
diagnostic test, which means
misdiagnosis is common.
At the group’s headquarters
in Moorgate, Ormskirk, the
girls, aged between seven
and 14, donned their
pyjamas to watch a
sleep–themed film,
Sleepover.
Their aim was to raise funds
by attracting sponsorship
from family, friends and
supporters.
Snacks for the girls to enjoy
during the event were
provided by Morrisons in
Ormskirk.

Gold standard!
Social enterprise earns national
recognition for second year in succession
By Henry James
A SKELMERSDALE–based
social enterprise has won
national recognition for the
second year in succession
Total Reuse CIC, based at
Gladden Place, West
Gillibrands, which diverts
reusable items from landfill
by finding them a new home,
has this year won the gold
standard at the Zero Waste
Awards for their initiative
with the University of
Liverpool.
And as the university are
now buying back
re–manufactured products
from what used to be classed
as waste, they were also
shortlisted in the ‘Circular
Economy Success’ category at
this year’s Awards for
Excellence in Recycling and
Waste Management.
Martin Gamester, director
of business development at
Total Reuse, said: “This is a
major success for us as the
other four organisations that
were shortlisted in the
Circular Economy Success
category were all
multi–million pound
outfits.”
In 2013 Total Reuse’s Tool
Shed initiative was voted
Best Community Recycling
Initiative at the Awards for
Excellence in Recycling and
Waste Management.
The Tool Shed, is based on
the Australian Men in Sheds
movement and offers
somewhere for the 50–plus
male populations to go to
restore, repair and refurbish

furniture diverted from

The company also make
bespoke pieces of furniture
from reclaimed materials and
examples of their work can
be seen at the Belpasso Oil
and Wine Company in
Ormskirk.
Total Reuse is also a founder
member of the new UK
Men’s Sheds Association and
is currently working with a
number of individuals
throughout the region to
support the establishment of
more sheds.
The university initiative
started 12 months ago and
between them they have now
diverted 1 million kgs from
landfill. Reusable furniture

Men–aces to stage
24–hour charity game
in aid of youngster
By Henry James
MEMBERS of the Skem
Men–aces disability
football team are set to
stage a 24–hour, non–stop
charity match in aid of a
West Lancs youngster
suffering from a rare form
of autism.
The event will be held at
the West Lancs Sports
College Hall, starting at
4pm on Friday. June 27 and
continuing until the same
time on Saturday, June 28.
The main aim is to raise
money for seven–year–old
Ben Jones from Aughton
who suffers from
Phelan–McDermid
Syndrome but they also
hope to buy a defibrillator
for the club.
And bosses at the team are
looking for donations from
local firms to help boost
their efforts.
Carl Eaton from the Skem
Men–aces said: “We are
asking for firms and shops
to donate high–energy
drinks and cereal bars to
keep the team going for 24
hours.
“This is a huge task for the
Some of the Skem Men–aces
Men–aces and one to
applaud and support as
most of the Men–Aces
players are supported by
carers themsleves.
“It’s a mammoth task to
organise but all the players
are itching to go.”
The team last run a similar
event three years ago and
Carl added: “It was a
fabulous event last time, we
played non–stop football
for 24 hours and we had
teams coming on and off.

shattered at the end. We

again.”
Anyone who can help with
refreshments can contact
Mim or Carl on 07506 458

Meanwhile the Men–aces
will be busy throughout the
summer with a range of
activities including games
up and down the country
plus a training camp and
presentation.

A midwife–led birth unit would be an
excellent option for women in West Lancs
RE: the news that the National
Institute for Health and Care
Excellence (NICE) is recommending
midwife–led units (MLU) for
low–risk women giving birth, I think
an MLU should certainly be an option
for women giving birth in
Ormskirk/West Lancs.
At the moment the only option for
women giving birth in West Lancs is
the consultant–led unit at Ormskirk
hospital. And although they can have
their babies in the MLU at Liverpool
Women’s Hospital, there is no birth
centre actually in West Lancs.
Evidence shows that for low–risk
women a birth centre led by midwives
is just as safe as a hospital which is
consultant–led. Midwives are
incredibly highly skilled and will
transfer a woman in labour if they feel
the birth is not progressing normally.
This means that for women who
have no complications, a more
relaxing atmosphere in a midwife–led
birth centre has been shown to help
labour progress more easily.
For women having a second baby, if
the first was a normal delivery with no
complications, home birth has been
shown to be just as safe and is a great
option too. Sefton and West Lancs has
a new homebirth team which means
women get a named midwife who will
do antenatal appointments and will
deliver the baby, so for continuity of
care it is excellent and I think it is a
fabulous improvement. This is for
homebirths only at the moment.
A midwife–led unit in West Lancs
would be fantastic. It could be
PICTURE of the week
Patients are paying over the odds
when phoning for appointments
RE your story about the difficulty of getting
doctors’ appointments, I am writing to let
you know how angry I am at Dr Biswas’s
surgery.
My mother, who is 85 years old, as many
elderly patients do, has to phone more often
than most to make appointments, ask
advice or to speak to a doctor etc.
She did this when I was present and I
noticed she would dial the number then be
holding on the phone for up to 10 minutes.
I replaced the receiver and dialled the
number myself, which I then found was a
0844 number. I found myself listening to an
explanation that they would be changing
the number to a local call in the near future.
I was not happy, considering this was
running up my mother’s call charges. When I
asked her how long this had been happening
she said a long time.
stand–alone or attached to the
hospital.
I will be asking the Sefton Maternity
Services Liaison Committee, of which
I am a member, whether there are any
plans to offer this to women in West
Lancs. I believe many midwives prefer
to work in MLUs as there can be a
much calmer, more relaxed
atmosphere and women tend to have
fewer interventions in birth.
The most common reason for a
woman to be admitted to hospital in
the UK is to give birth but if possible
we should leave hospitals to people
who are sick or who need specialist
care. Having a baby is generally a very
normal process and women do not
need to be in hospital for it.
Nina Killen, by email
She has just received a phone bill and her
charges for eight calls to the surgery lasting
35 minutes in total was £3.05.
I am appalled at this. If an ordinary
household can get a phone installed within a
week why on earth does it take a GP’s
surgery months to have their number
altered?
I would be very interested if other people
are as angry and appalled as I am and it
would be very interesting to add up the
extra charges that the surgery have cost
people.
The doctors on the opposite side of the
surgery have local numbers, so why can’t Dr
Bonser and Dr Biswas put their patients first
and get this sorted?

Base fracking decision on
evidence not hysteria
CHARLES Gains is quite entitled
to describe me as both naive
and ill–informed (Letters, May
14) without any idea of my
expertise other than his own,
obviously biased opinion, if he
wants to.
This is no doubt influenced by
protestors, some of whom have
genuine fears which may or
may not have validity.
My letter (May 7) merely
suggested that a sensible
course would be to wait for
proper scientific assessment, a
possible period of trial drilling
following recommended safety
procedures, bearing in mind
the real advantages that all the
major political parties, the
Church and the City recognise
as being a source of huge

FIRSTLY, I would like to say that your online
newspaper is 100% needed.
We live off the beaten track and don’t get the
paper delivered to our door so this is a fab way
to get a copy of it.
So, well done to all the hardworking people in
the office for providing this service to us and
keep up the good work.
Secondly, I would like to agree with the
complaints about parking in the Two Saints car
park.
This out of town parking service, all
controlled by two CCTV cameras as you drive
in and out of the car park and manned from an
benefit to the country.
This seems to have hit a nerve
with Charles Gains who,
convinced by his own
argument, is trying to instill
fear into people, with his
obvious dislike of big business,
the very thing that pays our
wages and pensions.
He and I probably have a
comfortable lifestyle and I
merely suggest that thought be
given to those less fortunate
than ourselves in this debate.
I can assure him that, having
spent most of my working life in
the real world of business, I am
neither naive nor ill–informed
and anyone would have a hard
job to hoodwink me.
Ed Dickinson, Wigan Road,
Jim’s column is
highlight of week
IT was another wonderful ‘One Man and His
Dog’ column from Jim Sharpe in last week’s
Champion.
I’m very pleased that David Simister won an
award recently for his motoring blog but I think
surely Jim deserves an award too.
His column is the highlight of the paper for me
pretty much every week.
He writes with such a voice of reason and
common sense (with just a hint of grumpy old
man!) that if the man was to stand for PM I’d
certainly vote for him.
I just wish you’d publish a collected work of
‘One Man and His Dog’. It would be excellent
reading.
Phil Lyon, Skelmersdale
Not sharp when it
comes to science!
I KNOW that there are many people out
there with as tenuous a grasp on science as
Mr Jim Sharpe (Scientific experts’ changing
tunes, May 7) but few of them are granted
the opportunities to broadcast their
ignorance through a newspaper column.
If Mr Sharpe wants some help with the
confusion he is experiencing then I will be
happy to help out. If he is not interested in
bettering his understanding then he should
really keep his views to himself.
Mr Sharpe is entitled to his own opinions,
but not his own facts.
Perhaps he could get his dog to write the
next column?
Dr Fiona Matthews, by email
It’s thumbs up for Champ online...but
thumbs down for parking fiasco!
office miles away, is a total joke.
No ticket is required for the first hour but if
you are over by one minute a £60 ticket pops
though your door.
For this reason we, as a company and a family,
no longer use our local town centre for
shopping. Down the road in Kew it’s free
parking and there’s no need to rush and panic.
So when the traders of our local town wonder
where all the people have gone, it’s because
they’re fed up of being ripped off.

Parish councillor says
plan to re–route bus
service makes no sense
A PARISH councillor has
added his voice to protests
against plans to re–route a
bus service leaving
residents of an area of West
Lancs with no public
transport.
The Champion reported
how more than 50 residents
of Shirdley Hill had signed a
petition opposing plans by
bus company Arriva to
re–route the only service
that runs through their
village, even though
Lancashire County Council
had subsidised that part of
the route.
Arriva announced that
from June 15 its No. 300
Liverpool to Southport
service would no longer
take in Shirdley Hill but
would go via Jacksmere
Lane and Southport Road
instead, citing the state of
the road as the reason for
the decision.
Residents claimed the
move would leave people
who rely on public
transport, including
workers, schoolchildren
and hospital patients,
stranded.
Now Downholland parish
councillor Norman
Jenkinson has blasted the
decision as senseless.
Shirdley Hill residents protest about the loss of their 300
bus service.
Code1068978
He said: “This is going to
affect a lot of people in
Haskayne, as well as
Shirdley Hill. The county
council are proposing
putting stops on the A5147,
north of the Bluebell and
people from the village will
have to walk there. It’s
much further and not fair.
“There have always been
buses in Haskayne and to
find out that the 300 bus
service will stop was a
bombshell for the people of
Haskayne and
Downholland.
“What’s more it doesn’t
make sense. We have just
had new homes built in the
area and more are being
built on the site of the King’s
Arms. We need the buses
even more now with more
people in the area.
“There are no shops here,
no post office and now no
buses.
“Now the only service
people can use will be the
No. 315 to Ormskirk, which
is just one bus on Thursday
mornings returning in the
early afternoon. How is that
enough transport?”

There have been big changes
in the law regarding children
On 22nd April, a new court came into
existence, the Family Court, dedicated to
dealing with this very specialised area of law.
This was not the only change - the nature of
orders relating to children, which have been
in place since the Children Act of 1989 also
fundamentally altered.
Gone are orders for residence and contact. In
have come Child Arrangement Orders.
I still get client’s asking about ‘custody and
access orders’ that were phased out in the
early 1990’s, so let’s hope we adapt a bit
quicker to this change in terminology!
are expected to try their very best to negotiate
a compromise. Courts are considered to be a
last resort.
A court can still however, be asked to rubber
stamp an agreement reached between
parents. That can be helpful if it later breaks
down, so everyone knew what was agreed
and what was expected of them.
The aim of the new law is to put parents at
the heart of sorting out arrangements for their
children and if that isn’t possible, to provide
a legal system and court fi t for our modern
times.
www.dphlaw.co.uk
It is not simply a change of name. For
the fi rst time in our legal history, there is a
presumption that both parents should be
involved in the child’s life in a way that does
not put the child at risk of suffering or harm.
This is not the same as a presumption of a
50/50 split of a child’s care, but it very much
puts at the forefront of the Judge’s mind the
widely considered view that children need two
parents, where it is safe.
The new Child Arrangement Orders will also
be couched in terms of where a child should
live and how much time they should spend
with each parent. The idea is to get away from
the labels that, unfortunately, so many parents
can get hung up on.
The very real emphasis of the new law is the
concept that parents are the best people to
sort out arrangements for their children. If
they cannot do this together, then with the
assistance of mediators and solicitors, they

to any aspect of a family breakdown, whether
you have children or not, then we are here

RESIDENTS have hit out at
changes to bus services
announced by Arriva which
they claim could leave an
area of West Lancs
‘isolated’ from public
transport.
The changes, due to come
into effect on Sunday, June
15, affect the No. 47 and
No. 48 services between
by the time it reaches us
from Preston, so as well as
only one bus an hour
instead of three and further
to walk to, you might not
even be able to get on!
“This is a huge concern for
the whole village as so
many people rely on the
buses. It will just cut us off
and isolate Banks.”
Southport and Liverpool.
A spokesperson for Arriva
As part of the new
Concerned bus user Mick said: “The majority of the
arrangements the No. 47, McCann
48 route is served by the 47
which currently runs from
Southport to Liverpool One
via Ainsdale, Formby,
Crosby and Bootle, will
terminate at Crossens from
June 15, bypassing stops on
Banks Road, Ralph’s
Wife’s Lane, Hoole Lane,
Guinea Hall Lane and the
Riverside Holiday Park.
Meanwhile, the No. 48,
which runs from Liverpool
to Southport via Waterloo,
Crosby, Formby and Banks,
is to be axed altogether.
Bus user Mick McCann, 67,
who lives on Hoole Lane,
said: “We have been told
that Arriva will be cutting
the service from Southport
to Crossens. It’s awful,
there are a lot of pensioners
who rely on that service.
“It currently comes twice
an hour each day and three
times an hour on
Saturdays, plus we also
have the hourly No. 2
service. But if the No. 47
service stops residents will
have to rely entirely on the
No. 2 which doesn’t go to
Liverpool.
“Residents who live on
Guinea Hall Lane, Ralph’s
Wife’s Lane and Banks
Road who use the 47 will
have to walk an extra mile
to the No. 2 stop and if they
want to go to Liverpool they
will have to get off the No.2
in Crossens and take the 2X
to Liverpool, which is much
more time–consuming.
“The only other option is
to take the bus into
Liverpool and pay to come
back on the train but that is
not covered by our passes
service, which is being
increased to run every 20
minutes. There are small
sections of the route which
will be affected by this
change and we apologise to
our customers who are
adversely affected.
“Service 47 will terminate
at Crossens, no longer
serving Banks and
Riverside, as this part of the
route does not carry
enough customers to
maintain the service.
“As the 47 and 48 service
run the majority of the
same route, the 48 service
has been withdrawn and
the frequency of the 47
increased to ensure we
operate as efficiently as
possible in relation to the
number of people who use
the services.”

Fixation with so–called celebs
is an irritation and a mystery!
IF there’s one thing that irritates me even more
than a cool stir–fry it’s the current fixation with
so–called celebs.
These fall into two distinct categories. Those
talentless folk who are famous for being
famous, and those, often endowed with talent,
who are treated as though their very success
puts them above any scrutiny.
In the recent past we have had innumerable
gormless celebs, such as Jade Goody for
example. She became a celeb on the back of
being thicker than an unsliced loaf on a
waste–of–space TV programme, Big Brother.
I’m glad that she found fame and, hopefully
happiness, before her tragic death; but she was
elevated to celeb status long before anyone
could have guessed at what the future held.
And there are countless others like her, or
with just a few more brain cells perhaps. Why
anyone is prepared to pay someone for simply
being stupid on a vacuous TV programme
defeats me. But someone is, and even more
strangely, there appear to be a vast number of
otherwise apparently sane folk who want to
watch their antics and listen to their absurd
pronouncements.
It was bad enough a few years ago, but now,
with blogs and tweets, it’s many times worse.
Perhaps someone can explain to me why I
should be interested in what some no–mark,
who finds it difficult to string a coherent
sentence together, had for breakfast, or makes
of the budget, or why we should be fighting in
Afghanistan (when they probably couldn’t
pinpoint Norwich on a map)?
Even worse, and far more disturbing though,
are the (usually extremely well–off) talented
ones who are invited to live by a totally
different code of ethics to you and me.
Take the footballers who have committed acts
of racism or decided it to be a good idea to bite
an opponent. Now we plebs (well, I still
maintain that I at least am a pleb) would,
almost as a given, get the sack for anything of
the sort. Not though if you are a Premier
Division footballer. Your club might fine you a
week’s salary, a shed–load of money which
the taxman rarely gets his hands on either, but
its loss hardly matters to someone taking home
that obscene sum every week.
But the sack? No fear! After all he’s the top
goal scorer and cost x million to buy. So that’s
alright then.
Or like Gary Barlow, star of Take That. If you
or I attempt to diddle the taxman I can assure
you we’d feel the hand of the Inland Revenue
on our collars very quickly. But what has really
infuriated me over this is the argument as to
whether he should hand back his OBE because
of this ‘lapse’.
Personally, I don’t have any strong feelings
about that either way, but I take violent
exception to our Prime Minister, ‘Call me
Dave’ Cameron, who stands by this tarnished
star, because he gives a lot to charity! For
goodness’ sake, it’s our money he’s giving!
But I suppose the tweetosphere (now there’s a
good word) will continue to hold many
otherwise apparently sane people in its thrall.
Good luck to them. I’m glad for them they
have so much time to waste.

used to look inside an egg), see eggs hatching
and meet fluffy ducklings in the nursery.
Downy Duckling Week is aimed at all the
family and was winner of the Best Tourism
Experience in Lancashire at the Lancashire and
Blackpool Tourism Awards in 2009.
It is an opportunity to discover how ducklings
develop inside an egg, hatch out of the shell
and develop in the duckling nursery.
Hannah Clifford, marketing manager at
Martin Mere said: “Downy Duckling week at
Martin Mere is a fantastic event giving visitors
Report by Henry James
an amazing opportunity to see the whole egg to
duckling process and meet fluffy ducklings.”
The event runs from 11am to 4pm, with the
duckling nursery open between 11.30am and
3.30pm. Downy Duckling activities are
included in the centre admission price; tickets
to the egg candling workshop will be issued
from the visitor services team as places are
limited.
During Downy Duckling week, the canoe
safari and guided boat tours will be available,
as well as the water–play in the adventure play
area. There’s also a series of talks every day
between 11.30am and 2.30pm.
As people become more and more
concerned about their everyday health
they are increasingly aware of the need
to drink lots of water to keep hydrated. In
fact, everyone should be drinking two litres
of water a day to help them maintain good
health. When he returned to the UK after
living in Canada for 25 years, Jim Spicer
realised the potential for growth in this
area. Seeking a fresh challenge after a 35
year insurance career he bought the Water
Cooler World franchise in this area. Now
he delivers water for water coolers and
coffee machines to homes,
“
businesses and schools
in Southport, Ormskirk,
Formby and Crosby as well
as other places in the North
West including Blackpool,
Preston, Bolton and Wigan
and everywhere in between.
Of his new venture, Jim
says, ‘After living away for so long it is
great to be able once again to realize what
a great country this is and what a fabulous
part of it we are lucky enough to live in
here in the North West. After living in an
enormous country like Canada for so long
you’d be amazed at how wonderful it is to
enjoy city life or rural living in the course
of one day. As well as that, the people here
are so friendly and have such a rich sense
of humour that coming home has been
easy.

to stay healthy and I have a water cooler or
coffee machine that will fit into any kitchen,
office, canteen, staff room or corridor.

having this facility. People continue to be
amazed at how cheap it is to have access

Chance to swim with
sharks for charity
By Henry James
IF you’d like to swim with
sharks and help a worthy
cause, officials of a national
charity want to hear from
you.
The Muscular Dystrophy
Campaign, which raises
vital funds for children and
adults with
muscle–wasting
conditions, is seeking
big–hearted daredevils to
take on a sponsored shark
dive at the Blue Planet
Aquarium in Cheshire later
this year.
All funds raised by the
event will go towards
research into treatments
for muscular dystrophy and
related neuromuscular
conditions and support for
the 70,000 families in the
UK who are affected by
them.
The charity challenge,
scheduled for Sunday,
October 12, is aimed at
scuba–diving beginners
and participants can also
bring along spectators to
spur them on.
Once in the water, divers
will have the chance to
brush shoulders with an
array of underwater
creatures, including sand
tiger sharks, lemon sharks,
nurse sharks, stingrays and
shoals of jacks, grunts and
snappers. Training from
fully–qualified instructors
and all scuba equipment
will be provided.
Those brave enough to
take the plunge are being
asked to raise a minimum
of £370 sponsorship.
Charles Horton, volunteer
fundraising manager for
the Muscular Dystrophy
Campaign, said: “Coming
face–to–face with one of
nature’s most feared
creatures is something that
sends a shiver down the
spine for many of us.
However, by taking on this
challenge you will be
helping the Muscular
Dystrophy Campaign to
change the lives of
thousands of families
across the UK who live with
devastating
muscle–wasting
conditions.”
Muscular dystrophy and
related neuromuscular
conditions cause muscles to
weaken and waste over
time leading to increasing
disability and in many
cases, significantly
affecting life–expectancy.
For further information,
contact Charles at the
regional fundraising office
of the Muscular Dystrophy
Campaign on 01244

Chance to have a
gowithabow...
IF you’ve ever fancied trying your hand at
archery, now’s your chance.
The Burscough Archers club are hosting taster
sessions in the sport on Bank Holiday, Monday
26 as part of a national initiative.
The Big Archery Weekend has been organised
by Archery GB, the governing body for archery
in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and
aims to drum up interest in the sport.
Kevin Green, chairman of the Burscough
Archers said: “Archery GB hopes to get lots of
people interested in taking up this popular
sport.
“Clubs up and down the country are holding
free ‘have–a–go’ sessions to give people a
taste of archery under the guidance of qualified
coaches.
“You will have the opportunity to see and try
archery in action and there is an indoor venue
if the weather is wet, so there are no excuses
not to come!”
A spokesman for Archery GB said: “Over the
last two years, the Big Weekend has
successfully introduced thousands of people to
the great sport of archery.
“This year it is back for more as clubs and
organisations are invited to once again open
their doors and welcome members of the
public to have a go at archery at their fun and
friendly open days.”
The Burscough Archers event will be held at
their base, Asmall Livery Stables, Asmall Lane,
Ormskirk, from noon to 4pm on Monday, May
26.

Summer is here! Whatever your needs, a blaze of colour and
choice awaits you at Warbreck Garden Centre.
Here they pride themselves on a fresh and vibrant approach.
Warbreck Garden Centre Goes Wild!
Many species of bee and other pollinating insects
including butterfl ies, moths and hoverfl ies have
experienced signifi cant decline in recent decades,
raising concerns about the impacts on food
supplies, gardens and the countryside.
Warbreck Garden Centre is hosting a bees, bugs
and butterfl ies festival this bank holiday weekend
where visitors can learn how to attract bees and
butterfl ies to their gardens.
Warbreck is a garden centre for gardeners…
with a huge choice for everyone. If you’re
looking for fabulous plants or inspiration for
both outside and inside your home, this really
is the place for you.
Whilst the emphasis will always be on gardening,
they have lots of ideas for your home and
family. Choose from their quality oak furniture,
new cookware shop, interior furnishings and
stunning giftware. Once you’ve meandered
around the beautiful displays the Courtyard Café
is the perfect place to relax and take some time
out from the everyday hustle and bustle! With a
delightful range of delicious homemade meals,
snacks and cakes available to enjoy in homely
surroundings this is a great food venue from
breakfast through to afternoon tea.
With a new children’s adventure play area and
lunch menu Warbreck is a great destination for
all the family.
The garden centre is conveniently situated near
Ormskirk, less than a mile from junction 3 of M58.
The centre, in Lathom, near Ormskirk is developing
a Wildlife & Kitchen Garden in conjunction with
the Ormskirk Bee Keepers Association, Lancashire
Wildlife Trust and the local Butterfl y Conservation
Society.
Richard Allison, Managing Director, said: “Despite
being gardeners’ friends, bees, bugs and butterfl ies
are in decline so we will be helping our visitors learn
how to encourage more of them into their gardens.
“Without bees, many arable and horticultural crops
couldn’t produce a harvest, which would seriously
affect our food supply.
Award Winning Chef
arrives at The Courtyard
Warbreck is delighted to welcome an award
winning Head Chef to the team to share his
culinary delights. Lee Armer brings zest to the
kitchen with a new and delicious a la carte menu.
All hot meals are reasonably priced at £6.95 and
are a real treat!
From breakfast to afternoon tea the Courtyard is a
thoroughly refreshing dining venue using only the
freshest of local ingredients.
“Factors including use of pesticides, loss of habitat
and more intensive agriculture are thought to be
to blame.
During the festival, visitors will be able to get advice
and inspiration on plants to get your garden buzzing!
The new gardens include a working Bee Hive, “Bug
Hotel” and wildfl ower meadow.
Warbreck is also hosting its popular Children’s
Gardening drop-in Workshops this Saturday and
Sunday with a bee and butterfl y theme. Follow the
wildlife trail, seed planting and pot decorating.

of e–cigs

to 17–year–olds questioned

Belated Xmas
gift for charity
A NORTH West–based charity has
received a bumper belated
Christmas present in the shape of a
cheque for £1,700!
Members of the 160–strong NHS
Choir (Cheshire & Merseyside)
raised the money for the North West
Air Ambulance (NWAA) through
their annual carol concert held at
Liverpool Anglican Cathedral last
December.
And the choir’s co–ordinator
Colette Halliday finally presented
the cheque to Louise Lloyd, regional
fundraiser for the Liverpool and
Merseyside branch of the charity at
Ormskirk Hospital this month.
TEENAGERS across Lancashire
are being urged to steer clear of
e–cigarettes after a report
revealed that a quarter of teens in
the county questioned in a survey
have used or bought the devices.
Trading Standards North West
carried out a survey of 3,574
students aged 14 to 17 years from
30 schools in Lancashire, which
revealed that more than 84% of
regular young smokers have used
e–cigarettes and 25% of
non–smokers had tried them.
Lancashire County Council is
urging young people to contact
their local stop smoking service if
they want to quit instead of
turning to e–cigarettes.
Unlike other nicotine
replacement products,
e–cigarettes are unlicensed and
there is currently no research to
show that they help people to quit
smoking.
Jo McCullagh, the county
council’s public health specialist
for smoking and tobacco issues,
said: “The fact that one in four of
the young people surveyed have
tried e–cigarettes is a real
concern.
“Many young people think that
smoking e–cigarettes will help
them to quit smoking, but there is
no evidence to show this works.
The devices themselves are often
designed to appeal to young
people with brightly–coloured
designs and a wide range of
‘fruit’ flavours.
E–cigarettes are often designed
to appeal to youngsters
“However, they are unregulated
and unlicensed and there have
also been safety concerns about
the products themselves with
reports of them containing
harmful toxic compounds,
cartridges leaking or chargers
catching fire.”
The survey shows that young
people who don’t smoke tobacco
(6.8% of those who had never
smoked and 33.7% of those who
had tried smoking but didn’t like
it) are also using e–cigarettes.
Jo added: “E–cigarettes still
deliver nicotine and have the look
and feel of a standard cigarette.
“Because they are designed to
be used in a similar way, they
normalise smoking behaviour.
“The data shows they are used
by people who don’t smoke, or
those who have tried smoking but
don’t like it, and there are
concerns that use of them could
lead on to an addiction to nicotine
and using conventional
cigarettes.”

Fashion show
raises £700 for
animal charity
A FASHION show in aid of a West Lancs animal
charity raised almost £700.
The show was staged by the Southport Dress
Agency and held at the resort’s Royal Clifton
Hotel, with all proceeds going to the Woodland
Animal Sanctuary in Holmeswood.
Debbie Eckersley of Southport Dress Agency
told the Champion: “Everyone had a fabulous
time and we were thrilled to be able to help
raise funds for such a deserving local cause. All
our models are customers and friends of the
agency and did us proud – they all looked
stunning. We are planning to make this an
annual event as so many people have asked
about another show!”

Bird charity in
‘don’t rush to
rescue’ appeal
Chances are that ‘abandoned’
fledgling is just learning to fly
BIRD lovers are being urged NOT
to ‘rescue’ any young feathered
friends unless they are absolutely
sure that they need help.
The message comes from
officials of the country’s leading
bird charity who have revealed
that most of the calls they receive
at this time of the year come from
well–meaning members of the
public about helpless baby birds
they have discovered on the
ground. In many cases though the
seemingly abandoned birds are
simply learning to fly and
well–intentioned ‘rescuers’
could actually lower their chance
of survival.
Kate Whitehead, of the RSPB
Northern England Region, says:
“It’s vital that people resist the
urge to intervene. This is a natural
part of the bird’s development.
Just before baby birds are ready
to take flight for the first time,
they leave their nest.
“Fledglings then spend a couple
of days on the ground developing
their final flight feathers. They
often appear hopping around
your garden in broad daylight
which is why many members of
the public think they need
rescuing.
“Another common fear is that
the fledgling has been deserted.
However, fledglings are
extremely unlikely to be
abandoned. The parents are
probably gathering food, or more
likely hiding nearby with a beady
eye on their young, waiting for
By Danielle Thompson
you to back away. Removing a
fledgling from the wild
significantly reduces its chances
of long–term survival, so please
don’t kidnap the baby bird.”
There are, however, a couple of
situations when the public should
lend a friendly helping hand.
If a baby bird is found on a busy
road or path, it would be
advisable to pick it up and move it
a short distance to a safer place
but within hearing distance of
where the fledgling was found.
Similarly, if you discover your
cat or dog eyeing up a fledgling in
your garden you should try and
keep your pet indoors for a couple
of days, or at least around dawn
and dusk.
Kate added: “If a baby bird is
discovered on the ground that is
either unfeathered or covered
only in nestling down, it has likely
fallen out of the nest ahead of
schedule. Occasionally it is
possible to put these babies back
in their nest, but only if you are
100% positive of the nest it has
fallen from and it’s safe to do so.
“Sometimes a parent bird will
intentionally eject a chick from
the nest if they sense it has an
underlying health problem or is
dying. It’s harsh to stomach as
humans but sometimes we need
to allow the law of nature to run
its full circle.”

The day was organised by Lesley

Lesley, from Skelmerdale, said: “It
was an amazing day for three of our
residents who lived in Liverpool
before they came to Hillcroft. And we
were accompanied by Deputy Mayor
of West Lancs, Councillor Doreen
Stephenson and the borough’s older
persons representative Councillor
May Blake. It was nice to see two
boroughs merging together for a
couple of hours in the local
community.
“Henry Mooney started the tour by
tracing the history of the club starting
with the two first players who were
signed up to play for Everton. We also
saw photos of some of the club’s great
players down the years, including
Dixie Dean, Alan Ball and many more.
“One of the residents, Frank, was
overwhelmed as he hadn’t been to
Everton since the 1980s and he
enjoyed reminiscing.

ENTERTAINMENT
Experience the music
of Bon Jovi at venue
UNFORTUNATELY Southport isn’t on Bon
Jovi’s list as a touring venue.
But Southport Theatre has the next best thing,
as endorsed by Jon Bon Jovi, who was so
certain that a picture of the Bon Jovi
Experience’s frontman, Tony Pearce, was him,
he had to check with a friend to make sure it
wasn’t.
And it isn’t just Jon who’s confused. Tony,
who hails from Stoke on Trent, said that when
he once attended one of the band’s gigs in
Manchester, fans were so convinced he was
The Jon Bon Jovi, that he was mobbed and had
to be escorted to safety by the superstar’s own
security in what he calls one of the most
‘frightening’ experiences of his life.
Although not always The Bon Jovi Experience
(originally they were ‘By Jovi’) the band has
been together for around 21 years, before the
‘tribute band’ explosion first came about.
Perhaps what makes The Bon Jovi Experience
‘the best Bon Jovi tribute ever’, as uttered by
the man himself, is that these guys treat the
band as their full time job.
Apparently Jon Bon Jovi was aware of the
band for years but it wasn’t until November
2006 that he met his doppelganger for the first
time.
Tony has commented that he initially thought
it was a ‘wind up’ when Matt Bon Jovi, who
runs the back stage fan club, called and said
Jon wanted them to play at the Hard Rock Cafe
when he was being inducted into its Rock n
Roll hall of fame.

“I thought it was just someone winding me up
so when I got off the phone I immediately
emailed the back stage fan club and got one
back saying it really was happening,” Tony
said.
“When we went to the Hard Rock Cafe, Jon
came over and said ‘Hi Tony’ and I thought,
‘Jon Bon Jovi knows my name!’”
In the defining moment of Tony’s career, the
pair then sang Who Says You Can’t Go Home?
Together.
The Bon Jovi Experience will be at Southport
Theatre on Friday, May 30 at 7.30pm.

Psychological thriller to be
presented by dramatic club
THE Southport Dramatic Club Bar Production
this summer is a psychological mystery thriller
called Agnes Of God, written by John Pielmeier
and described as a riveting, powerful and
electrifying drama.
The opening action of the play is a nunnery
where a new born baby is found dead in a
waste paper basket in the bedroom of a young
nun. The girl is discovered by the Mother
Superior, Miriam Ruth, unconscious and
covered in blood. Who is responsible for the
baby’s death? And its conception?
The case has gone to court and the
psychiatrist, Dr Martha Livingstone, has been
briefed by the court to find out the truth about
what happened and to assess if the young nun,
Agnes, is sane or not. Her punishment relies on
the answer. Who killed the infant? Who
fathered the tiny victim?
The play echoes a true incident which took
place in Brighton, New York in 1977.
Beth Milligan, Tracey Batchelor and Elspeth
Fisher have the lead roles for this bar
production which is directed by Celia
Timmington.
The play starts at 7.30pm from Tuesday, June
3 to Saturday, June 7. Tickets from the Box
Office 01704 530521/530460.
Pleasure Folk’s production
was ‘thoroughly enjoyable’
Review by
Jenny Robson
• 42nd Street – Ormskirk Pleasure Folk
• Ormskirk Civic Hall
THIS is one of those feel–good shows in
which the underdog gets a break. Lisa
Proctor shone as Peggy Sawyer, the sweet
and shy hoofer, fresh out of Allentown, who
missed her audition because she was too
nervous to go in. “They’ve already picked
the chorus; you should have been here at
ten!”
Eventually she gets her chance but when
leading lady – Dorothy Brock (an incredibly
strong performance by Gemma Briscoe) –
breaks her ankle she is fired because it is
thought that it was she who caused her fall.
So – the show must close! Or does it?
Theatre impresario, Julian Marsh, realises
that the only person to save the show is
Peggy who can actually dance better than
Brock.
He heads her off at Broad Street Station
promising to make her a star. The show
shifts to New York and the rest is history.
Dorothy Prothero and Jim Briscoe were
Soroptimists to host evening
of Gilbert & Sullivan numbers
SOUTHPORT Soroptimists are hosting a
concert evening of popular Gilbert & Sullivan
numbers that will be performed by the
Hoghton Players Gilbert & Sullivan Society.
The Soroptimist’s Programme Action
Committee is currently raising funds for Sefton
Women’s and Children’s Aid (SWACA). This
is a Sefton–based organisation, committed to
providing free and confidential services for all
women, children and young people who are
survivors of domestic violence. Proceeds from
the concert will be donated to help local
victims of abuse.
The concert will feature musical numbers

THE Southport Orchestra is busy preparing
for a grand summer concert to be performed
at the Southport Theatre and Convention
Centre, on Saturday, June 21.
Formally known as the Floral Hall, this has
been the venue of previous successful
concerts by Southport’s Orchestra, notably
the highly acclaimed performance of film
music last year.
For the 2014 summer concert the
Orchestra, under its regular conductor, Jeff
Rimmer, with new leader, Melanie Foster,
will present a wide selection of popular
classics with the aim of delighting
audiences. In addition, two Liverpool born
soloists will perform with the orchestra,
excerpts from great works by composers
ranging from Mozart and Rachmaninov, to
Chaminade and Shostakovich.
To perform the First Movement of
Rachmaninov’s Third Piano Concerto, his
Eighteenth Paganini Variation, Mozart’s
Elvira Madigan Theme from his Piano
Concerto Number 21 and the Second
Movement of the Piano Concerto Number 2
by Shostakovic, the Orchestra welcomes the
young, highly talented local pianist, Tom
Kimmance, who has appeared to great
acclaim with the Southport and Ormskirk
Orchestras on several previous occasions.
endearing as Maggie and Bert. Steve Rutter
threw himself into the part of Billy Lawlor;
Liz Wainwright gave a strong performance
as Anytime Annie.
Thomas Davitt and Mark Bennison played
Pat Denning (Brock’s love interest whom
she eventually married) and Abner Dillon
(her faux love interest ... and funder of the
show).
But the runaway star of the night was Steve
Coghlan as Julian Marsh. His performance
was nothing less than outstanding!
All this plus there were lovely sets,
sparkling costumes and a strong
tap–dancing chorus. The cast had bundles of
energy and enthusiasm and were
choreographed by Lyndsey McGinn. This
was a great musical comedy directed
beautifully by Liz Wainwright. (Just one
point, though ... white bow ties are correct
with tailcoats; cummerbunds missing, too.)
Nancy Wells led the Band through their
paces as they sent us all out into the warm
night air singing all the memorable songs –
the most prolific being Lullaby of
Broadway and 42nd Street!
Score: 9/10 – Thoroughly enjoyable!
Yeomen of the Guard, Pirates of Penzance and
The Gondoliers. Chorus members and soloists
have been busy rehearsing this lively
programme of music, under the firm direction
of musical director, Ian Dunning.
The concert takes place at Holy Trinity
Church Hall, Hoghton Street, Southport this
Saturday (May 24) beginning at 7.30pm.
Tickets are £7 and may be reserved for
collection on the door, by contacting the
society secretary, Diane Mackley on 01772

Players said: “This promises to be a wonderful
evening of toe–tapping delights, so come and
treat yourselves!”

New Merc is
built like a tank
By David Simister
THE latest executive express from Mercedes
has been given top marks for its safety
credentials by an independent group of
crash test experts.
Euro NCAP said the latest C–Class, which
has just gone on sale across the UK, has been
given the full five–star rating, while another
crash test debutante, the Hyundai i10,
earned four stars.

Ford shrink
wrap their
Transit range
By
David Simister
A LOAD–lugging
favourite is being
offered in shrunken
form for the first time
ever, it has been
announced.
Ford will be
launching its smallest
ever Transit van,
called the Transit
Courier, which has a
maximum payload of
Luxury Murano on sale
By David Simister
660kg and is offered
with the firm’s 1.0
litre Ecoboost engine,
which has already
won awards when
beneath the bonnet of
the Fiesta and Focus.
The Transit Courier
is the smallest of a
four–strong range of
vans, slotting in
below the full–size
Transit and the
medium sized Transit
Custom and Transit
Connect models.
A LUXURIOUS new Nissan off–roader will
arrive in the company’s showrooms later
this year, it has been announced.
The third generation version of the
Murano, which is sleeker and easier to live
with than its 2009 predecessor, will come
with a 3.5 litre, 260bhp petrol V6 as
standard.
Prices for the new off–roader, which sits
above the Qashqai, will be announced soon.

Nissan boffins
conquer the
unthinkable
BY THE time you read these
words, Nissan will have done
what would have been
unthinkable just a year or two
ago.
The Japanese motoring
giant
is, six–and–a–bit–years
after it dropped the Almera,
getting back into bed with
what your fleet manager
unceremoniously calls ‘the
C–Segment’.
In other words, Nissan is
marching straight onto the
Golf course and confidently
predicting it’ll nail a hole in
one with its latest family
hatchback.
It’s an announcement that
got me scratching my head.
Didn’t Nissan replace its last
Focus–basher, the Almera,
with the Qashqai a few years
ago?
Whoever was in charge of
Nissan at that point of the
company’s history was
clearly on the ball, because
the Qashqai hasn’t been so
much a car as a sales
phenomenon.
Even though I’ll openly
admit it’s not the
medium–sized crossover – or
even the thinly–veiled
off–roader, if I’m being
cynical – that I’d go for, it’s
captured the mood of a
British public bored with
run–of–the–mill hatchbacks
and me–too saloons. People
love its chunky looks, its
impeccable manners on the
road and its unbustable build
quality (courtesy of the
people of Sunderland,
incidentally). That’s why, as
of last week, it’s the seventh
best–selling car in Britain.
That’s why I can’t help
wondering why a car that’s
captured the motoring
imagination far more than
old Almera ever did will be
joined in the showrooms this
autumn by a car which
replaces the Almera directly
– albeit six–and–a–bit years
late. The last time I can think
Most powerful BMW ever
Report by
David Simister
BMW has celebrated the 30th anniversary of
a performance car institution by unveiling
its most powerful production model ever.
The BMW M5 30 Jahre – roughly translated
into English as 30 Years of the BMW M5 – is a
special edition of the flagship saloon which
offers up 600bhp from its 4.4 litre V8
engine, 40bhp more than the standard
model. Just 30 of them, £91,890, will be
imported into the UK.
Since the car’s introduction in 1984 there
have been five generations of the M5, which
are all versions of the regular 5–Series
saloon tuned by BMW’s Motorsport
division.
There’s a thin line between
genius and madness. I just
hope Nissan knows where
it is...
The Almera was never a bad car but not the motoring hit the
Qashqai has been
Code NA
of that happening was when
British Leyland tried to sell us
the Austin Allegro, the Austin
Maxi and the Morris Marina
simultaneously – not the
horror story armchairs would
make out, but hardly a
marketing masterstroke
either.
I can only assume someone
far brighter than I am has
worked out exactly how the
new hatchback, called the
Pulsar, will be a thumping,
Qashqai–esque success
without stealing a single sale
from the Qashqai itself. A
difficult one to figure out
with a car that nobody has
even seen (as of the point of
this week’s column being
written), let alone driven.
There’s a thin line between
genius and madness. I just
hope Nissan knows where it
is.

School team’s
day to remember
A TEAM of talented young
footballers had a day to remember
when they plaedy at Liverpool FC’s
Anfield Stadium when the boys and
girls of the Year 6 team from
Aughton Town Green Primary
School qualified to represent West
Lancashire in the Liverpool Schools
Cup. And although they were
beaten 1–0 in a close–fought
semi–final nothing could take the
gloss off the day for the happy
youngsters. Headteacher Nick
Huxley said: “The team thoroughly
enjoyed the experience, from
travelling to Anfield on their own
team coach and getting to use the
changing rooms to touching the
famous ‘This is Anfield’ sign and
playing on the pitch. They played
some fantastic football and
represented our school brilliantly.”
SKELMERSDALE beat Caldy by 49
runs in their Liverpool Competition
Second Division match on Saturday
after openers Ben Maddocks (53) and
Jonas Smith (56) set up what proved
to be a winning total of 193 scored in
44.2 overs.
Muhammed Adeel Baig (48) and
Barry Leadbetter (20) were the other
main contributions.
Andrew Griffiths took five wickets in
Caldy’s reply as they were dismissed
for 144 in 52 overs.
Hightown remain rock bottom of the
division after going down by 8 wickets
at home to St Helens.
After electing to bat the hosts were
bowled out for just 70, with Shaun
Vosloo (30) and Stephen Wright (19)
the only batsmen to reach double
figures, as Phil Murgatroyd took 7–17
off 13 overs. In reply the visitors raced
to victory with 71–2 in 10.2 overs.
Burscough raced to 250–8 dec at
Alder, with Chris Andrews (53), Rob
Glaysher (50no), Brendan Domigan
(40) and Ryan Hughes (47) all
scoring useful runs, whilst Hemel
Vatekar took 3–65.
In reply the hosts ran out of overs
and ended just short of victory on
243–7, with Dave Conlan (61no) and
ORMSKIRK comfortably
beat Firwood Bootle to
stay on top of the
Liverpool & District
Competition Premier
League.
Bootle elected to field
on winning the toss and
opening bowlers Will
Purser and Kaine
Balgowan captured the
Aughton Town Green primary school football team at Anfield stadium.
Openers set up easy
win for Skelmersdale
Burscough forced to settle for
draw in high scoring thriller
Scott Aitchison (52) top scoring in an
entertaining draw.
Fleetwood Hesketh remain bottom
of the Premier Division after a woeful
batting display saw them bowled out
at home for just 66 by Rainhill, with
Mohammad Qureshi taking 8–17 off
10 overs.
In reply credit should go to
Fleetwood’s bowlers who almost
grabbed victory from the jaws of
defeat, as Aaron Halsall (4–24) and
Craig Todd (3–8) made the visitors
fight all the way in reaching 67–9 to
win by a single wicket.
Southport & Birkdale lost by 143
runs at New Brighton.
The hosts elected to bat and put
284–5 dec up on the board, with
Lancashire’s Luke Procter hitting an
unbeaten 106 (15x4 & 1x6), Louis
Botes 65 and John While 54.
In reply Ian Sutcliffe (29) and Scott
Lees (28) top scored for S&B who
were all out for 141, with Andrew
Clarke (5–42) Ashraf Nawab (3–45)
Ormskirk make easy work of Bootle
first three wickets for 45.
Ian Glayzer (49) and
Gary Knight added 89 for
the fourth wicket, and an
unbroken partnership of
82 for the sixth between
Knight and Simon
Kerrigan allowed
Ormskirk to declare on
221–5 in the 50th over,
Knight remaining not

balls.
Bootle openers, skipper
David Snellgrove and
Richard Cowderoy, were
sent back before the
total had reached double

the pick of the bowlers. Maghull are
still searching for their first win of the

from Kris Jones (46) and Damien
Snodgrass (38) led the hosts to 218,
with Luke Williams (4–39) and Dan
Edwards (4–67) starring with the
ball.
In reply 110 (15x4 & 1x6) from Will

wrap up the win.

whilst Lahiru Sri Lakmal Madumma
