LIFESAVERS<br />

FOR TOWN!<br />

Report by<br />

Holly Rummens<br />

EIGHT lifesaving defibrillators have<br />

been installed across Formby after<br />

special fundraising efforts were made<br />

by the community in memory of a<br />

Merseyside schoolboy who died of a<br />

heart condition.<br />

The machines have been placed in<br />

key locations such as schools, fitness<br />

centres and churches to honour the<br />

life of 12 year old Oliver King who<br />

died of Sudden Arrhythmic Death<br />

Syndrome (SADS) two years ago.<br />

The Great Defibrillator Raffle was set<br />

up by Trinity St Peters Primary School<br />

who were initially campaigning to<br />

raise enough funds to buy a<br />

defibrillator for the school but word<br />

spread through the town and other<br />

groups from Formby became<br />

involved.<br />

Nearly 19 children per week lose<br />

their lives to the condition (SADS) in<br />

the UK but with a defibrillator nearby<br />

this can be prevented.<br />

The machines are now available at<br />

all schools in Formby as well as<br />

Vikings Community Gym, Formby<br />

Vital machines are placed in<br />

key locations across Formby<br />

LTC, St Peters church hall and Holy<br />

Trinity church hall.<br />

Andrea Spawton, a campaigner for<br />

the use of defibrillators said: “The<br />

cost of a defibrillator is nothing<br />

compared to the loss of life. Statistics<br />

show that we are more likely to use a<br />

defibrillator than a fire extinguisher,<br />

and if fire extinguishers are seen as<br />

such vital pieces of equipment,<br />

defibrillators should have the same<br />

profile.”<br />

Community<br />

So far £6,000 was raised through<br />

fundraising efforts made by local<br />

traders and community groups to<br />

have the machines installed.<br />

However, the fundraising is still<br />

continuing to have the defibrillators<br />

externally wall mounted to make<br />

them accessible to the community<br />

24/7.<br />

The Grapes pub in Formby held a<br />

family fun day on Saturday, July 27<br />

while other events include bag<br />

packing in Iceland Formby, school<br />

discos and a concert set for October<br />

hosted by Formby High School.<br />

Andrea continued to say: “What<br />

began as a campaign for a small<br />

primary school has created a real buzz<br />

across Formby with the community<br />

truly coming together to help make<br />

Formby a safer place to live. If we can<br />

inspire other schools and groups<br />

across our local area and beyond to<br />

recognise the overwhelming need for<br />

these life–saving pieces of equipment,<br />

then we will have achieved<br />

something.<br />

“To everyone who has been involved<br />

I would like to say a heartfelt thank<br />

you. It has been a huge team effort,<br />

and without the generosity and<br />

support of the Formby people we<br />

could never have achieved this.”<br />

Oliver’s dad Mark King, of the Oliver<br />

King Foundation, said: “Were<br />

delighted that all Formby schools now<br />

have defibrillators, and we’ve been<br />

able to inspire other groups to<br />

recognise their importance.”<br />

Songwriter down to final three for<br />

Liverpool Female Artist of the Year<br />

Report by Holly Rummens<br />

A FORMBY singer–songwriter Anna Corcoran<br />

has been short listed out of thousands of<br />

entries for this years Liverpool Female Artist of<br />

the Year.<br />

Anna won a place in the top three after a panel<br />

of judges selected her out of a possible 3,000<br />

artists up for the Liverpool Music Awards.<br />

After performing a concert for over 500<br />

people at the Plaza Cinema in Crosby and<br />

raising up to £5,000 for Jospice, she is hoping<br />

that her involvement in her local community<br />

will help her win the public vote.<br />

She said: “The winner is all down to online<br />

votes, so I’m really hoping to get the support of<br />

our local community!<br />

“The past couple of months have been a really<br />

exciting time after so many years of gigging<br />

non stop, it is so exciting to get this recognition<br />

from Merseyside music lovers.”<br />

Anna has independently released her debut<br />

single ‘The Show’ after is was played on<br />

national radio station Radio 2 and has also<br />

been supported by Merseyside radio presenters<br />

Billy Butler from Radio Merseyside and John<br />

Gilmore from Radio Lancashire.<br />

Liverpool Music Awards looks to celebrate<br />

impressive local musical talent and<br />

entrepreneurial achievements within the city<br />

region’s music industry.<br />

Anna added: “So many people from Formby,<br />

Southport and Crosby have been so supportive<br />

of my concerts and charity gigs over the years<br />

and I would appreciate it so much if anyone<br />

wanted to vote for me.”<br />

She started her musical career when she was<br />

13 at her first gig at The Bay Horse in Formby<br />

for their Sunday Lunch, from there she has<br />

gone on to become a professional musician<br />

piano bars in London including The Dorchester<br />

and The Ritz.<br />

roots, as she has recently performed a sell out<br />

gig at The Rodewald Suite at Liverpool<br />

Philharmonic Hall’s After 8 series and is often<br />

seen playing at charity gigs for The Gallery in<br />

Formby and Queenscourt Hospice in<br />

Anna by voting on the website.<br />

Anna Corcoran has been nominated for Liverpool Female Artist of the Year.<br />

Volunteers<br />

gift village<br />

new plants<br />

FORMBY Parish Council along with a group of<br />

volunteers have been working throughout the<br />

year on their planting and maintenance<br />

programme which is now almost complete.<br />

The work was being carried out on Chapel<br />

Lane and the Junction of Elbow Lane to help<br />

improve the appearance of the Village by<br />

adding new planters and notice boards. Two<br />

new three tier planters were installed on the<br />

corner near the post office along with barrier<br />

baskets.<br />

Parish Councillor Mike Coles said: “The<br />

volunteers have taken on additional tasks than<br />

planned this year with extra planters added to<br />

the outside of the shops in Redgate.<br />

“It has not been an easy year following the<br />

poor weather in the spring, but we have made<br />

great progress recently. We are indebted to the<br />

small team of volunteers and councillors<br />

among us who do the work!”<br />

He added: “The appreciation from members<br />

of the public makes it all worthwhile.”<br />

Council cuts<br />

All work was funded and managed by the<br />

parish council after the budget cuts made by<br />

Sefton earlier this year, Councillor Cole said:<br />

“Nonetheless by working with contractors in a<br />

different way we have not only maintained the<br />

roundabouts and the verges in Southport<br />

Road, but also done so at no significant<br />

increase in costs.”<br />

The old notice boards on the corner of Elbow<br />

lane have now been removed and replaced<br />

with new ones along with new bike racks with<br />

more hoping to be added to the area later in the<br />

year. The pavement has been re–laid where<br />

roots have come through and they have been<br />

jet washed and reset.<br />

Formby Parish Council are now planning<br />

work for the next few years with an application<br />

for a grant from Sefton Council which will go<br />

towards further improvements for the village<br />

centre.<br />

The grant has been in process for the past six<br />

months, Mike Cole added: “I am disappointed<br />

by the delay, as I know the money is there for<br />

this work to begin.”<br />

Army officer loses his<br />

licence for three years<br />

and is fined after being<br />

caught drink–driving<br />

Report by Our court reporter<br />

AN ARMY officer based at Altcar has lost his<br />

licence after being caught drink–driving.<br />

Sean Lord, 26, of Mainway East, of<br />

Middleway, Manchester, pleaded guilty to<br />

driving with excess alcohol at Sefton<br />

Magistrates on July 25, where he appeared<br />

in a khaki corporal’s uniform, displaying<br />

numerous badges of military honours.<br />

Brian O’Connor, prosecuting told the<br />

court that Lord had been stopped by police<br />

at 2.30am on July 8 on North End Lane,<br />

Hightown. He was said to be on his way back<br />

to Altcar, along with three other army<br />

personnel, after a night out.<br />

As “he smelt of alcohol” a roadside breath<br />

test was carried out which he failed, and a<br />

subsequent test at the custody suite<br />

Year 6 pupils with the new bench<br />

produced a reading of 51mg per 100ml<br />

breath, when the legal limit is 35mg per<br />

100ml. O’Connor informed the court that<br />

Lord had previously pleaded guilty to<br />

drink–driving in 2005 when he received a<br />

financial penalty and a disqualification.<br />

He said because of that previous conviction<br />

Lord faced a mandatory disqualification of<br />

three years.<br />

Representing Lord, Mr Ali said that apart<br />

from there being passengers in the car there<br />

were no other aggravating features.<br />

“There was no slurring of the words, no<br />

struggling with police, just full compliance<br />

and a prompt guilty plea”, he said.<br />

Telling the magistrates he had character<br />

references he gave the magistrates a letter<br />

written by Lord.<br />

Fining him £400 and ordering him to pay<br />

£85 costs and a £40 victim surcharge the<br />

magistrates disqualified him from driving.<br />

Pupils help<br />

new bench<br />

park project<br />

CHILDREN at a Formby<br />

primary school have been<br />

part of a project to help<br />

refurbish and install a new<br />

bench at a local park.<br />

Year 6 pupils at Our Lady of<br />

Compassion Catholic<br />

Primary School contacted<br />

Sefton Council’s Parks and<br />

Greenspaces team and<br />

helped choose the location<br />

for the new bench at Duke<br />

Street park.<br />

Parks and open<br />

spaces retain<br />

Green Flag status<br />

TEN PARKS and open spaces in Sefton have<br />

retained their prestigious Green Flag status.<br />

Green Flag is the quality award for public<br />

parks and green spaces, which demonstrates<br />

value for money and benchmarks against<br />

nationally set criteria.<br />

Last year 10 sites in Sefton were honoured<br />

with the title. These were Botanic Gardens and<br />

Hesketh Park in Southport, Southport<br />

Crematorium, Lord Street Gardens, Southport,<br />

Liverpool Road Cemetery, Southport,<br />

Thornton Garden of Rest, Hatton Hill Park,<br />

Litherland, Coronation Park in Crosby and<br />

Derby Park and North Park in Bootle.<br />

For 2013, all 10 sites have retained their<br />

flags.<br />

The national award, handed out by<br />

environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy,<br />

recognises and rewards the best parks and<br />

green spaces across the country.<br />

A Green Flag flying overhead is a sign to<br />

visitors that the space boasts the highest<br />

possible standards, is beautifully maintained<br />

and has excellent facilities.<br />

To achieve the award, Sefton Council has to<br />

demonstrate competence in a number of<br />

criteria that are assessed through a<br />

management plan and site visit or mystery<br />

visits for those sites that have achieved green<br />

flags in previous years.<br />

Councillor Ian Moncur, Cabinet Member<br />

Children, Schools, Families and Leisure, said:<br />

“These Awards recognise and highlight that<br />

people right across Sefton are benefitting from<br />

a green space of the very highest quality.<br />

“We are very proud and honoured to have<br />

so many parks and open spaces across the<br />

Cllr Ian Moncur, (centre) celebrates the<br />

Green Flag success at Hatton Hill Park,<br />

Litherland<br />

borough formally recognised through the<br />

Green Flag awards scheme.<br />

“The fact so many sites have retained<br />

the award this year ensures that we all<br />

still have access to well–managed,<br />

high–quality green spaces throughout Sefton<br />

which are so important for health and leisure<br />

activities.”<br />

The 10 sites in Sefton are among a<br />

record–breaking 1,447 parks and green spaces<br />

who will receive a prestigious Green Flag<br />

Award.<br />

Green Flag Award Scheme Manager Paul<br />

Todd said: “A Green Flag Award provides<br />

national recognition for the hard work and<br />

dedication of all the parks managers, staff and<br />

volunteers who have helped to create these<br />

fantastic places for all to enjoy.”<br />

Report by Ollie Cowan<br />

FORMBY’S first ever Food and<br />

Drink festival took off with a<br />

bang with over 11,000 guests<br />

turning up over the weekend to<br />

witness their unique firework<br />

display and family friendly<br />

events.<br />

The Village were so impressed<br />

with the festival, held at Duke<br />

Street, plans for next year have<br />

already started. All<br />

entertainment and food was<br />

provided locally along with<br />

help from sponsors Love Food,<br />

Hate Waste and Waitrose,<br />

Formby.<br />

Maria Bennett, Formby<br />

Festival organiser said: “We<br />

felt that this was something<br />

Formby needed and to bring the<br />

community together for a fun<br />

filled weekend and of course<br />

the weather was a bonus.<br />

“Many people were involved<br />

in pulling the event together,<br />

We would like to thanks all the<br />

bank staff who attended to man<br />

the gates, all volunteers who<br />

helped at the event and GD<br />

Studios for all the printing of<br />

the programmes.”<br />

Chef demonstrations by<br />

Aazam Ahmad from BB2 Fusion<br />

Chef of the Year and Paul Askew<br />

from London’s Carriage Works<br />

restaurant were available from<br />

the children’s cooking<br />

marquee, while musical<br />

entertainment was provided by<br />

Merseycats, a rock and rock<br />

Firework display by Formby<br />

Theatre Services. Code NA<br />

children’s charity and<br />

performances by Central Dance<br />

Studio and Southport YMCA<br />

were also at the event.<br />

Maria continued to say: “The<br />

people were fantastic and there<br />

were no incidents at all and<br />

everything went very smoothly.<br />

We cannot thank the public<br />

enough for supporting the<br />

event and hope they enjoyed it<br />

as much as we did.<br />

The event was pulled together<br />

by Formby Theatre Service who<br />

designed and provided<br />

Saturday night’s<br />

entertainment, the Disney<br />

Tarzan themed firework<br />

display which was watched by<br />

over 3,000 people.<br />

Sefton Council also pitched in,<br />

tidying up the Parks in the area<br />

to make space for the variety of<br />

food outlets which were<br />

offering tastes from around the<br />

world, while magic and circus<br />

shows provided entertainment<br />

for children.<br />

Although the Flight Simulator<br />

didn’t arrive due to technical<br />

problems the weekend raised<br />

over £5,000 for the Help the<br />

Heroes charity.<br />

SEFTON residents can now enjoy 37<br />

new outdoor gyms across the<br />

borough.<br />

All the gyms are free, easy to use and<br />

encourage people to use outdoor<br />

spaces.<br />

They aim to improve residents’<br />

health and wellbeing, increase<br />

physical activity, and help address a<br />

range of lifestyle conditions such as<br />

heart disease, stroke and some<br />

cancers.<br />

The gyms were first introduced in<br />

2009 following a successful<br />

partnership between Sefton Council<br />

and NHS Sefton.<br />

They were installed to increase<br />

physical activity and encourage<br />

people to use parks and greenspaces<br />

more.<br />

The robust equipment includes<br />

traditional apparatus plus more<br />

unusual ones including ‘steppers’ and<br />

‘air walkers.’<br />

Councillor Ian Moncur, Sefton’s<br />

Cabinet Member for Children,<br />

Schools, Families and Leisure, said:<br />

“The outdoor gyms give residents a<br />

chance to lead an active and healthy<br />

lifestyle, while socialising at the same<br />

time and enjoying our excellent<br />

outdoor spaces.<br />

“The great benefit of these gyms is<br />

that they can be used by people of<br />

almost any fitness level and are<br />

“Feedback from gyms users has been<br />

Cllr Ian Moncur (second from left) with council leader Cllr Peter Dowd (far<br />

right), and other special guests.<br />

Code NA<br />

very positive and they are being used<br />

by all ages at all times of the day.”<br />

Many of the gyms are linked to<br />

Sefton Council’s ‘Active Sefton’<br />

programmes including walking and<br />

cycling initiatives.<br />

They are also an asset to parks<br />

‘friends of’ groups such as Moorside<br />

Park in Crosby where ‘Fitness in the<br />

park’ circuit training is taking place.<br />

Dr Janet Atherton, Sefton’s Director<br />

of Public Health, said: “There is<br />

growing research which shows that<br />

outdoor physical activity improves<br />

our mental health and wellbeing.<br />

“The outdoor gyms offer residents<br />

the opportunity to improve their<br />

emotional wellbeing while getting fit.<br />

“You don’t need any experience to<br />

use the gyms which are also<br />

environmentally friendly. The gyms<br />

are linked to improving a person’s<br />

mood and self–esteem in all ages and<br />

reduce the prevalence of physical<br />

inactivity that leads to higher rates of<br />

illnesses.”<br />

The outdoor gyms were funded by<br />

NHS Sefton, manufactured by Caloo,<br />

and installed and maintained by<br />

Sefton Council’s Parks and<br />

Greenspaces team.<br />

£13m investment<br />

for Southport –<br />

Wigan rail line<br />

by Ollie Cowan<br />

PASSENGERS travelling between Southport<br />

and Wigan will soon benefit from more reliable<br />

journeys after Network Rail confirmed details<br />

of a £13m investment to improve the track<br />

along the route.<br />

Martin Frobisher, Network Rail area director<br />

commented: “The investment we are making<br />

will provide a smoother ride and a more<br />

reliable service for passengers travelling<br />

between Southport and Wigan.<br />

“The track here along this route is extremely<br />

old and was beginning to have an adverse<br />

affect on train punctuality.<br />

“We’ll be replacing over 11 miles of track<br />

which will allow more trains to run on time<br />

along this important route.”<br />

Work starts on site in the week commencing<br />

August 12 with the majority due to be<br />

completed by December.<br />

EVERY ASPECT OF BUILDING WORK<br />

UNDERTAKEN<br />

Most of the work will take place overnight<br />

when trains are not running but there will be<br />

some impact on late evening services between<br />

Southport and Wigan, Monday to Thursday.<br />

Lee Wasnidge, Area Director for Northern<br />

Rail: “Further investment in rail in the region is<br />

again turning the spotlight on the growing<br />

economy in the North of England.<br />

“Although there will be some short–term<br />

disruption for our customers, we’d like to<br />

reassure them that this improvement package<br />

between Southport and Wigan will help us<br />

provide a comfortable and more reliable<br />

service for them on one of our busiest lines of<br />

route.<br />

“We’re delighted to be able to bring the<br />

benefits of a resolute working partnership to<br />

our customers.”<br />

Report by Holly Rummens<br />

FORMBY parents have now been<br />

given more freedom to use their<br />

15–hours free childcare each week<br />

after questions were raised by Formby<br />

Labour councillor Nina Killen.<br />

Some Formby nurseries were<br />

charging wrap around fees on top of<br />

the free sessions provided to all three<br />

year olds by the government.<br />

Mum of three Nina Killen felt that<br />

charging fees on top of the free hours<br />

made them too expensive for some<br />

parents and were unfair.<br />

She said: “I have friends who used<br />

Formby day nurseries who said they<br />

would drop their kids off at 9am and<br />

pick them up at 12 noon which should<br />

have been a free sessions, but they<br />

also had to pay for 8–9am and<br />

12–1pm even if they weren’t using<br />

those hours. When you are a working<br />

parent every penny counts, and when<br />

the 15 hours free was extended to two<br />

year olds, I asked whether these wrap<br />

around fees would be allowed.<br />

“The officers at the council came<br />

back to me to say they felt the day<br />

nurseries shouldn’t be forcing<br />

parents to pay these wrap around<br />

costs, and I am glad to see that all the<br />

nurseries now allow parents to use the<br />

15 hours totally free, as long as they<br />

use all morning or all afternoon<br />

sessions.”<br />

Councillor Killen has been liaising<br />

with Sefton Council officers to have<br />

this policy formalised, so that<br />

compulsory wrap around fees don’t<br />

return.<br />

She said: “I understand that the<br />

council has modified its service level<br />

agreement to reflect this change, so all<br />

Nina Killen and family<br />

nurseries should now be offering<br />

totally free sessions. This gives more<br />

flexibility to parents who may not be<br />

able to use the school nurseries due to<br />

their working hours, and hopefully<br />

saves them some money, too.”<br />

Every child receives 15 hours of free<br />

nursery education each week.<br />

Public meeting how to<br />

spend £15,000 grant<br />

Formby Village<br />

Consulting Rooms<br />

CONCERNS made by local businesses<br />

have prompted a public meeting to<br />

discuss the future of Formby after a<br />

£15,000 grant was approved to<br />

improve the village.<br />

Sefton Central Labour MP Bill<br />

Esterson is holding the meeting on<br />

Thursday, August 1, at Formby Pool to<br />

discuss how the shopping centre can<br />

be rejuvenated.<br />

Joining Mr Esterson at the meeting<br />

will be Sefton Council leader Cllr<br />

Peter Dowd, Formby Sefton<br />

councillors and members of Formby<br />

Parish Council.<br />

The MP heard about the good work<br />

the parish council has already started,<br />

which has included replacing some of<br />

the Village’s street furniture.<br />

The Labour MP said he was<br />

arranging the meeting for traders and<br />

local businesses, as well as residents<br />

to come along to share their ideas and<br />

get involved in carrying through some<br />

of those ideas. He said: “We all want<br />

the very best for Formby Village.<br />

“We want a thriving trading centre<br />

for the local businesses. And we want<br />

a thriving shopping and cultural<br />

centre for the local residents.<br />

“Formby Village is a fantastic centre,<br />

but it has the potential to be so much<br />

more.<br />

“That’s what the traders I have<br />

spoken to want and what we will look<br />

at investigating at Thursday’s<br />

meeting.”<br />

Mr Esterson has already met with<br />

Formby Parish Council who have told<br />

him about some of the improvements<br />

in the Village they have made.<br />

He said: “Formby Parish Council<br />

have already done some work on<br />

making improvements in the Village<br />

and I hope that Sefton council will be<br />

making a contribution as well.<br />

“We just need to make sure that the<br />

improvements we make lead to an<br />

increase in footfall for the businesses<br />

and enhance the offering in the<br />

Village.<br />

“We have Sefton Council leader Cllr<br />

Peter Dowd, our local Formby<br />

borough and parish councillors<br />

attending, so please come along and<br />

have your say.<br />

“I look forward to hearing lots of<br />

ideas from businesses and residents<br />

alike on what we can do to make the<br />

improvements in the Village that we<br />

all want to see.”<br />

The main points of interest raised by<br />

Report by David Raven<br />

SEFTON Council is to spend more<br />

than £726K to help develop town<br />

centres, improve youth<br />

employment and the local<br />

economy.<br />

A total of 11 schemes were<br />

agreed at a recent Cabinet<br />

meeting held at Southport Town<br />

Hall.<br />

Included in the schemes is the<br />

allocation of £140K to help<br />

refurbish two science labs at<br />

Stanley High School, Southport.<br />

In a separate scheme, £60K has<br />

been allocated for design fees<br />

ahead of proposed remodelling<br />

and refurbishment of the<br />

entrance, administration block<br />

and kitchens at Litherland Moss<br />

Primary School.<br />

A further £200k has also been<br />

set aside to progress the<br />

introduction of more energy<br />

efficient street lighting columns<br />

across the borough.<br />

A total of £326K has also been<br />

allocated toward eight schemes<br />

through the Capital Priorities<br />

Fund.<br />

This is a one–off pot of<br />

money of £1m released from<br />

Councillor Peter Dowd, Leader<br />

of Sefton Council, said: “Despite<br />

the council’s budget being<br />

significantly hit by reductions in<br />

Government funding over the<br />

past number of years, we are still<br />

committed to investing in key<br />

projects like these.<br />

“The capital schemes will<br />

provide improved classroom<br />

facilities, allow modern lighting<br />

columns to be introduced across<br />

the borough and aid the<br />

development of our local<br />

communities.<br />

“Spending some of the money<br />

we have now will hopefully reap<br />

the rewards in years to come.”<br />

A UNIQUE project is using historic items to<br />

help jog the memory of dementia and<br />

alzheimer patients across Sefton.<br />

The borough’s libraries are taking part in the<br />

Memory Box project which involves boxes and<br />

reminiscence packs featuring old photographs,<br />

newspaper cuttings, maps and artefacts<br />

designed to evoke memories and start<br />

conversations.<br />

They are already being used in care homes<br />

and have proved very popular with residents.<br />

LETTERS to the Editor<br />

Civilian squad could ‘police’ speedsters<br />

Re: recent stories about speeds limits,<br />

I am against a 20mph speed limit<br />

because the drivers who are breaking<br />

the 30mph limit will break 20 as well.<br />

However, I do agree to the roads<br />

outside schools being 20mph as this<br />

could save a child’s life.<br />

At the moment there is no real<br />

deterrent to stop speeding motorists. I<br />

haven’t seen seen a speed trap in the<br />

last 15 years or more.<br />

The police do a fantastic job but they<br />

are involved in many issues so they<br />

cannot spend enough time on doing<br />

speed traps.<br />

My suggestion to overcome this<br />

Model aircraft<br />

enthusiast Matthew<br />

Atherton takes a<br />

break from his day<br />

job as an EasyJet<br />

captain when he was<br />

invited to pass on<br />

some scale model<br />

flying tips at last<br />

week’s science<br />

themed summer<br />

school.<br />

Along with dad<br />

Michael – a fellow<br />

enthusiast, the pair<br />

taught the basics of<br />

flight to students<br />

attending an<br />

International<br />

Summer School<br />

hosted by<br />

Skelmersdale’s Our<br />

Lady Queen of Peace<br />

Science College.<br />

Government support for fracking ignores<br />

the potential damage it could cause<br />

I see that the Government<br />

has decided to push for the<br />

development of ‘fracking’<br />

using low–tax incentives.<br />

Government spokesmen<br />

go on about the numerous<br />

advantages fracking is<br />

supposed to bring but little<br />

is said about the most<br />

important factor – shale gas<br />

is a fossil fuel which, when<br />

burned, produces CO2, just<br />

like coal and oil.<br />

Also, the gas itself<br />

(methane) is just about the<br />

worst substance known for<br />

increasing global warming.<br />

problem is to train six civilians to do<br />

nothing other than speed traps. Teach<br />

them how to operate the speed<br />

camera and the laws on speeding so<br />

that when trained they can issue<br />

tickets and fines to speeding<br />

motorists.<br />

The six civilians would then work on<br />

a rota basis, with two always on duty<br />

daily and for seven days a week.<br />

The person operating the speed gun<br />

should be dressed in civilian clothes<br />

while the person issuing a penalty<br />

should be wearing some sort of<br />

uniform.<br />

Both would have documents on<br />

PICTURE of the week<br />

No one knows just how<br />

much methane will escape<br />

into the atmosphere during<br />

the fracking process or how<br />

much damage it will do to<br />

our water supplies.<br />

One further matter. The<br />

support proposed by the<br />

Government for fracking<br />

will cut back on the<br />

development of solar, wind<br />

and tidal power which are<br />

our only real hopes for the<br />

future energy generation.<br />

All the evidence shows<br />

that fracking will increase<br />

overall the speed with<br />

which global warming<br />

occurs.<br />

The Government seems<br />

unable to see further than<br />

the end of its nose;<br />

short–termism rules as it so<br />

often does.<br />

Not forgetting that there<br />

will be profits in fracking<br />

and we all know that the<br />

prospect of profits will<br />

always cause the neglect of<br />

other considerations.<br />

Dr. R. Dawson, Farnborough<br />

Road, Birkdale<br />

them showing that they are traffic<br />

officers.<br />

As for the salary they would be paid,<br />

once the training is finished, it could<br />

come from the speeding fines given,<br />

thereby making it self–funding.<br />

In 1957 I started my National Service<br />

I was taught to drive a seven–tonne<br />

truck and passed my test the first time,<br />

driving through and around Yeovil.<br />

I have been driving now for 56 years<br />

and I keep to the speed limits. I am<br />

proud to have a good driving record.<br />

Mr B. Birchall, details supplied<br />

Not impressed by council’s<br />

idea of public consultation<br />

As a resident of Sefton, I am<br />

disgusted at Sefton Council’s<br />

purported public consultation<br />

on the Local Plan.<br />

I would have thought a public<br />

consultation would have meant<br />

that members of the public<br />

were free to air their opinions<br />

with regards to the Local Plan.<br />

However, it would seem that<br />

the council think that by<br />

offering 15 venues lasting six<br />

hours each, with bookable<br />

one–hour slots is truly a ‘public<br />

www.champnews.com/pixonline<br />

Time for action not<br />

photo opportunities<br />

I refer to the picture (<strong>Champion</strong>, July 10) of<br />

councillors posing around ugly patches of<br />

tarmac which have spoiled the look of the<br />

ill–conceived Chapel Street pedestrian zone.<br />

To me this proves that our elected<br />

representatives are incapable of doing the job<br />

for which they were elected – the improvement<br />

of Southport, not the neglect which has<br />

converted it from a proud and successful<br />

holiday resort into the poor man of Merseyside.<br />

If our councillors want respect from those<br />

who elected them, then it’s up to them to<br />

actually do something about it instead of<br />

having their pictures taken at the scenes of<br />

their failures to get some undeserved<br />

propaganda material.<br />

John Lee, Westmoreland Road, Southport<br />

consultation.’<br />

Yet the same council has<br />

mailed every resident of the<br />

Formby area with proposals<br />

over a 20mph speed limit.<br />

Surely that same opportunity<br />

should be afforded to the<br />

residents of Sefton and in<br />

particular those who would be<br />

affected by the building on the<br />

green belt which has much<br />

far–reaching ramifications?<br />

J. Williams, details supplied<br />

Nothing but praise for<br />

excellent hospital staff<br />

I am now at the age of 79 and have just<br />

returned home from hospital, having spent<br />

nine weeks in the stroke ward.<br />

The doctors and nurses were excellent, not<br />

forgetting the bone manipulators who are all of<br />

a very high standard.<br />

When the doctors asked what was the last<br />

hospital I was in and I replied the maternity<br />

hospital, they asked if I had had a baby.<br />

No, I replied, I was born there!<br />

As you can see, I have had a very good life.<br />

I have written this letter because, from time to<br />

time, I read of people complaining about the<br />

food, the doctors, and the nurses.<br />

I have also read of people complaining about<br />

nurses shopping in their uniforms, when they<br />

have just finished their shift and have most<br />

likely called in to get something for their<br />

family’s tea.<br />

How many people think of cleaning their<br />

shoes when going to visit a friend in hospital?<br />

After all, they have just walked through the<br />

streets and picked up all kinds of germs and<br />

diseases on them.<br />

It is rather like the pot calling the kettle black.<br />

Mr Gordon Merritt, Southport<br />

More bedsits not good<br />

for tourist economy<br />

You recently published a report on a<br />

number of guest houses achieving the Trip<br />

Advisor Certificate of Excellence 2013.<br />

Several of these are in Bath Street.<br />

Southport Hotels Association members in<br />

Bath Street are feeling less confident that<br />

Sefton Council is committed to allow such<br />

developments. The businesses there have<br />

suffered from the nocturnal anti–social<br />

antics of a minority of alleged ‘residents’<br />

who bring nothing to the generation of a<br />

tourist economy.<br />

The local police try to maintain a presence<br />

but unfortunately the anti–social behaviour<br />

occurs late in the evening and early<br />

morning, not in the afternoons.<br />

SHA members have serious concerns the<br />

further development of bedsit<br />

accommodation in Bath Street rather than<br />

sensible, community–developed family<br />

accommodation will lead to a deterioration<br />

in the environment for potential visitors to<br />

Southport.<br />

School’s third<br />

‘outstanding’<br />

STAFF and children at Freshfield<br />

Primary school are celebrating<br />

their third ‘outstanding’ Ofsted<br />

grading in a row.<br />

The school has now undergone<br />

three inspections, under three<br />

different inspection schedules in<br />

the space of six years, achieving<br />

‘outstanding’ each time.<br />

The primary school was<br />

recognised for the continued<br />

development and achievements<br />

since its last inspection in 2009.<br />

The report noted the ‘highly<br />

skilled and experienced senior<br />

WOODVALE 611 Squadron have<br />

finally raised enough funds to get<br />

their very own replica Spitfire<br />

aircraft to act as a gate guardian.<br />

An estimated £30,000 was<br />

needed for the replica aircraft<br />

that takes pride of place at the<br />

entrance to the RAF unit.<br />

Flight Lieutenant Peter Tipping,<br />

officer commanding 611<br />

Squadron, ATC said: “The real<br />

thing was far too expensive and<br />

would have been a major<br />

maintenance problem with the<br />

salt air and damp.<br />

leadership team and a highly<br />

committed and involved<br />

governing body’.<br />

Inspectors observed lessons<br />

across the school and recorded:<br />

“The teaching is exemplary in all<br />

classes and in all year groups the<br />

pupils take pride in helping each<br />

other, while parents value the<br />

opportunities they have to be<br />

involved in the school.”<br />

The children and staff are<br />

looking forward to a day of<br />

celebrations before the end of the<br />

term.<br />

Spitfire campaign<br />

hailed a success<br />

“The Spitfire is the most fitting<br />

aircraft to have on the gate as the<br />

type is everyone’s favourite and<br />

it played a major role in the<br />

history of RAF Woodvale and 611<br />

Squadron. 611 was the first<br />

Auxiliary Squadron to receive<br />

Spitfires before World War Two<br />

started and fought with them<br />

almost exclusively throughout<br />

the way until they were replaced<br />

by the longer range Mustang<br />

fighter.”<br />

Three cheers for award pub!<br />

THE FRESHFIELD Pub in Formby<br />

hosted their own beer festival this<br />

week to celebrate winning<br />

Merseyside Pub of the Year 2013.<br />

Running from Monday July 22 –<br />

Sunday July 28, the ‘Freshie’ as it<br />

is locally known, has brought 80<br />

different cask ales and ciders into<br />

Formby to celebrate their success of<br />

being crowned CAMRA Merseyside<br />

Pub of the Year 2013.<br />

On Tuesday July 23 the managers<br />

Simon Cox and Steve Gregory<br />

welcomed Ian Garner, regional<br />

director for Merseyside and<br />

Cheshire CAMRA to the pub for a<br />

presentation evening, while on<br />

Report by Holly Rummens<br />

other days activities such as meet<br />

the brewer and pub quizzes were<br />

organised for their regulars.<br />

Asking what beverage is proved<br />

the most popular with beer fanatics,<br />

manager Simon Cox said:<br />

“Liverpool Organics is always well<br />

liked and receives the best reviews.<br />

“As soon as we buy it in, it isn’t<br />

long until we have ran out again<br />

and its good that it is produced in<br />

Waterloo so it’s very local.<br />

“We had so many different types<br />

of beer and cider available, some<br />

that people had never heard of or<br />

tasted before.<br />

“We even had to drive down to<br />

Yorkshire to collect a few barrels<br />

from a micro brewery in<br />

preparation for the festival, the<br />

beer tastes so refreshing, it’s<br />

definitely something I have never<br />

tasted before.<br />

“Everyone seemed to have a good<br />

time and enjoyed themselves,<br />

which is the main thing.<br />

“I am glad so many people got to<br />

try all the different types of cask ale<br />

we had on offer.”<br />

BURGLARS in Sefton are<br />

taking advantage of the<br />

recent hot weather spate by<br />

climbing through windows<br />

to steal items from shops.<br />

Large quantities of<br />

cigarettes, as well as other<br />

stock, have been stolen<br />

from newsagents,<br />

convenience stores and<br />

mini–supermarkets.<br />

In some cases offenders<br />

have forced open metal<br />

shutters covering shop<br />

fronts.<br />

In others they have<br />

climbed through first floor<br />

windows left open in the<br />

warm weather.<br />

Detectives are<br />

investigating links between<br />

the burglaries and are<br />

reminding business owners<br />

to make sure they have<br />

working security alarms<br />

and CCTV systems to deter<br />

thieves.<br />

Detective Inspector<br />

Natalie Perischine, said: “It<br />

is important that local<br />

businesses do everything<br />

they can to protect their<br />

shops from burglars.<br />

“The police are working<br />

hard to identify the<br />

criminals in each of these<br />

cases but deterring them in<br />

Shops in borough asked to close<br />

windows after spate of break–ins<br />

the first place is vital.<br />

“In some cases force has<br />

been used to get through<br />

metal shutters but I would<br />

still encourage businesses<br />

to use them in conjunction<br />

with visible and<br />

fully–working security<br />

alarms and CCTV.<br />

“I would also remind them<br />

of the importance of not<br />

leaving any cash on the<br />

premises overnight.<br />

“It has been distressing<br />

for the victims in these<br />

crimes to lose thousands of<br />

pounds worth of stock as<br />

well as the cost of damage<br />

to their shop.<br />

“We are doing everything<br />

we can to catch the<br />

offenders but people can<br />

help us by making life as<br />

difficult as possible for<br />

these thieves. These<br />

cigarettes may be offered to<br />

people for sale in<br />

suspicious circumstances –<br />

if you are offered them,<br />

please tell the police.”<br />

Bob Gaiger from Her<br />

Majesty’s Revenue and<br />

Customs, added: “If you are<br />

offered cheap cigarettes or<br />

suspect someone local is<br />

trading in or storing illicit<br />

goods please report it.<br />

“Of all our partners, the<br />

public is one of the most<br />

vital in our fight against<br />

smugglers and fraudsters.<br />

improve by 0.2% in both areas in the past 12<br />

months.<br />

For 2012/13, Sefton Council’s Council Tax<br />

collection rate was 97.3% ranking the local<br />

authority sixth out of 36 other metropolitan<br />

councils and also the highest on Merseyside.<br />

The news comes after a meeting at Bootle<br />

Town Hall on June 27, where Sefton Council’s<br />

head of finance tried to persuade councillors to<br />

dissolve 40 cases of irrecoverable funds.<br />

Sefton Council spends around £236m a year<br />

on services but is being forced to cut £43m<br />

from its budget over the next two years.<br />

Despite this shortfall, it had been<br />

recommended that the total sum of £998,165<br />

be wiped from the system.<br />

Some 28 debts were attributed to businesses<br />

not paying tax amounting to £681,998.74,<br />

while the rest are eight cases of sundry debts –<br />

other services, totalling £269,090.55.<br />

The remainder of the funds were four cases of<br />

overpaid housing benefit debts that came to<br />

£47,086.18.<br />

Over half of the funds were written off due to<br />

companies falling into liquidation and the next<br />

most costly reason was companies that had<br />

ceased trading and had no assets<br />

Four of the debt cases totalling £70,000 were<br />

written off because companies or residents had<br />

‘We are maximising our<br />

revenue to keep Council<br />

Tax down’ says councillor<br />

disappeared and there was no trace of them.<br />

The report stated: “Prior to write off every<br />

effort has been made to seek recovery.<br />

Accounts have been provided to internal audit<br />

for scrutiny.<br />

“Whenever an amount is written off it is<br />

possible that further sums may be recovered in<br />

due course as new information is obtained.<br />

“This would happen in the following<br />

instances; where a new address is found for an<br />

absconded debtor attempts will be made to<br />

recover any outstanding sums.<br />

“Whenever a firm or individual goes into<br />

bankruptcy, liquidation, receivership etc the<br />

council’s interest is registered with the<br />

liquidator and the receiver may pay a dividend<br />

to creditors.”<br />

According to latest figures, for collection of<br />

Business Rates, Sefton’s figures have risen by<br />

0.2% to 98% ranking the local authority<br />

seventh out of the other metropolitan councils.<br />

Nationally, the average in year collection rate<br />

for Business Rate collections fell by 0.1%.<br />

Councillor Paul Tweed, Cabinet Member<br />

Corporate Services and Performance, said:<br />

“These results are great news at a time when<br />

many families and businesses continue to<br />

struggle financially.<br />

“It also provides reassurance to residents<br />

that we are maximising our revenue to keep<br />

Council Tax down.<br />

“Everyone who is required to pay their<br />

Council Tax bills should do so and anyone who<br />

is struggling should contact us directly.”<br />

CCTV has its uses but you can’t beat the ‘personal touch’<br />

FUNNY how really quite small things can take<br />

the edge off your day.<br />

Earlier this week, Tina (the dog) and I were<br />

travelling on the train to Aughton. Across the<br />

aisle from us were two young men (and I mean<br />

young men, not so–called young adults).<br />

You’ll probably remember the furore a few<br />

years ago when a young woman was taken to<br />

court because she was travelling with her feet<br />

on the seats. She had the advantage of being<br />

pretty – and polite.<br />

These two didn’t just have their feet on the<br />

seats, they appeared to be treating an entire<br />

bay of seating as a kind of bedroom; or more<br />

accurately the edge of a Roman sauna.<br />

So why didn’t I have the courage to say<br />

something? Well, firstly they were indeed far<br />

larger (and a good deal younger) than I. More<br />

importantly, I had Tina with me.<br />

If I had challenged them and they’d politely<br />

apologised and sat in a more conventional<br />

manner, I’d have felt I’d done my civic duty.<br />

If, on the other hand, they had been<br />

aggressive and raised their voices<br />

threateningly, I’m reasonably certain Tina<br />

would have decided these were indeed not nice<br />

people (a bit like skateboarders or squirrels)<br />

who posed a danger to me. She would, in all<br />

probability, have shown some hostility<br />

towards them.<br />

And if they had responded likewise, in all<br />

probability it would have been me in court and<br />

not them, and Tina in the doghouse. Frankly,<br />

the risk wasn’t worth it.<br />

But we are told our trains are now equipped<br />

with CCTV, just to curb incidents like this. If<br />

they are, it doesn’t – obviously.<br />

As you may remember, I am personally<br />

against the uncontrolled proliferation of CCTV<br />

spying devices. But, like so many things, it does<br />

have its uses. It is fair enough within shops to<br />

fight shoplifting. It may well help in certain<br />

outdoor areas where trouble can reasonably be<br />

expected. And yes, of course, I’m glad it’s<br />

there when it helps police catch a serious<br />

criminal.<br />

But because something is done with the best<br />

intentions doesn’t mean that it should become<br />

omnipresent. And frankly it still doesn’t wash<br />

with me that “if you have done nothing wrong,<br />

there’s nothing to worry about.” I’m doing<br />

nothing wrong when I complete my morning<br />

ablutions at home – but I wouldn’t want a<br />

camera recording the scene either. Or why<br />

should me scrabbling after loose shopping if<br />

my bag burst in the city provide amusement for<br />

some civilian camera operative in his bunker<br />

somewhere?<br />

On the other side of the coin, too many<br />

cameras probably mean that no–one is actually<br />

watching most of the screens most of the time –<br />

a bit like road speed cameras that are often<br />

inoperative. Certainly they rarely if ever stop a<br />

crime being committed. They didn’t on the<br />

train and they don’t in city centres either.<br />

A camera may record a mugging or<br />

bag–snatch. It won’t stop it happening – and it<br />

won’t catch the offender nine times out of ten<br />

either. Just like it didn’t prevent these adult<br />

children from abusing the seats on my train.<br />

I can’t help feeling that CCTV, properly used<br />

in circumstances where it can actually make a<br />

difference at the time, is a good thing. But for<br />

so–called low–level crime and anti–social<br />

behaviour, what you need is a person.<br />

In the streets the physical presence of a<br />

copper or two really does make a difference. In<br />

the local park, a uniformed official works<br />

wonders on vandalism.<br />

And on the train, should the guard have<br />

chosen to do a walk through, those errant feet<br />

would have been off the furniture quick smart.<br />

Morgana is top of the class<br />

A COUNSELLING and<br />

after graduating with a first<br />

her work at an undergraduate<br />

research conference before<br />

starting a new job a week after<br />

finishing uni.<br />

graduating it’s nice to come<br />

university. I have already<br />

Matters in Sefton where I will<br />

be doing low–intensity therapy<br />

interventions. It’s a fantastic<br />

place to work with a very<br />

welcoming atmosphere and I<br />

wouldn’t change it for the<br />

world.”<br />

the ‘Plan Bee’<br />

Keela Walsh,<br />

“This event will give<br />

both adults and<br />

children the chance<br />

to learn a little more<br />

they are so<br />

important. Without<br />

them, over a third of<br />

the foods that<br />

people are used to<br />

seeing on the<br />

shelves in our stores<br />

wouldn’t be there.<br />

“We hope that our<br />

‘Plan Bee’ walk will<br />

inspire residents to<br />

Suspended jail sentence for<br />

man who didn’t pay his fines<br />

A SHOP–fitter who<br />

neglected paying court<br />

fines for over three years<br />

was given a suspended<br />

prison sentence.<br />

Raymond Batt, 51, of Lord<br />

Street, Southport,<br />

appeared at Sefton<br />

Magistrates on July 25, and<br />

admitted he’d owed<br />

£1,488 to the court since<br />

2010.<br />

Duty solicitor Mr Jones<br />

said that he was “not able<br />

to put forward an adequate<br />

explanation” as to why<br />

he’d not paid as he “had<br />

sometimes been in work<br />

<br />

and sometimes not been in<br />

work”.<br />

The magistrates imposed<br />

a 28 day suspended prison<br />

sentence to be effective<br />

until the debt was<br />

discharged and ordered<br />

him to pay £100 per month<br />

towards it.<br />

‘Sefton 4 Good’<br />

targets businesses<br />

A MAJOR new initiative in Sefton will make it<br />

easier for local residents and businesses to<br />

support good causes in the borough.<br />

Sefton 4 Good is being co–ordinated by<br />

Sefton CVS and is based on a similar scheme<br />

which is already operating successfully in<br />

Tameside.<br />

CVS bosses say Sefton 4 Good aims to increase<br />

charitable giving across the area, and to<br />

provide a better way for individuals and<br />

companies to donate their time, skills,<br />

resources and money to local organisations.<br />

A key element in Sefton 4 Good’s<br />

promotional activities will be its website which<br />

will be used to link charities to potential<br />

donors.<br />

Although individuals are very welcome to<br />

support Sefton 4 Good, the initiative will<br />

particularly target the business community.<br />

They will also be asked to provide resources in<br />

the form of materials and equipment, or money<br />

via payroll giving, sponsored activities or<br />

tax–efficient donations.<br />

In return for this involvement with Sefton 4<br />

Good, businesses will be able to raise their<br />

profile in the borough, show they are<br />

community minded, increase the morale of<br />

thei staff and provide a way for employees to<br />

learn new skills.<br />

CVS Sefton 4 Good co–ordinator, Sam Smith,<br />

said: “Sefton residents and companies are well<br />

known for being generous when it comes to<br />

supporting charities.<br />

“However, many of them are supporting<br />

national organisations and we want to<br />

encourage them to give local instead.<br />

Sefton CVS staff launch the Sefton 4 Good<br />

initiative.<br />

“Local businesses in particular tell us that<br />

they want to support local good causes, but are<br />

inundated with requests and don’t know who<br />

to give to.<br />

“Sefton 4 Good will help businesses to<br />

manage these requests, and ensure that<br />

whatever they have to give in terms of time,<br />

resources or money goes to those who need it<br />

most in our community.”<br />

The 22–year–old, who will be<br />

2012 for ‘Best Newcomer’.<br />

She will be joined by British<br />

solo music artist Whinnie<br />

Williams who has also<br />

performed on stage under the<br />

name of Sunday Girl. Her first<br />

single and music video under<br />

her new stage name Whinnie<br />

Williams, ‘You Don’t Love Me’,<br />

came out earlier this year.<br />

Galloways plea!<br />

VOLUNTEER fundraisers<br />

are being sought to help<br />

Galloway’s Society for the<br />

Blind.<br />

The Sefton and West<br />

Lancashire service provides<br />

advice, equipment and<br />

activities for blind and<br />

partially sighted<br />

individuals to enable them<br />

to regain their<br />

independence and reduce<br />

the effects of visual<br />

impairment.<br />

However, none of this<br />

could be possible without<br />

the support of the local<br />

community and dedicated<br />

volunteers.<br />

Over the past few months<br />

big changes have been<br />

happening at Galloway’s.<br />

One of which has been to<br />

appoint a new staff<br />

fundraiser to their centre in<br />

Southport.<br />

Emma needs<br />

help to make<br />

her big ideas<br />

become reality<br />

Emma Wilson will be in<br />

charge of fundraising<br />

throughout the entire<br />

Sefton area, as well as<br />

Ormskirk and<br />

Skelmersdale.<br />

Since the Southport centre<br />

opened its doors two years<br />

ago there has been little<br />

fundraising presence in the<br />

area. The newly appointed<br />

full time fundraiser will be<br />

working in the community<br />

to develop their existing<br />

support and promote<br />

community awareness.<br />

Emma said: “I have got a<br />

lot of big ideas and cannot<br />

wait to get started, but I am<br />

currently looking for some<br />

enthusiastic volunteers to<br />

help me make my ideas a<br />

reality.<br />

“Of course volunteering<br />

looks good on your CV but it<br />

is also a lot of fun, you<br />

become part of a team and<br />

meet some really<br />

inspirational people”<br />

The charity are currently<br />

looking for volunteers to<br />

help with the organisation<br />

and hosting of events in<br />

Southport and Ormskirk, as<br />

well as thinking up creative<br />

new fundraising initiatives.<br />

• For more information on<br />

There will also be a host of celebrity guests<br />

format of the labyrinth in its work and recently<br />

the team completed two permanent labyrinth<br />

pathways in Hesketh Park and Marian Gardens<br />

in Netherton.<br />

Philip Wroe, The Atkinson’s Community<br />

The <strong>Champion</strong> • Wednesday 31 July 2013<br />

THIS week we move away from our coastline at<br />

Ainsdale and concentrate on our beautiful RSPB<br />

reserves and take a look at the Northern<br />

Lapwing. Latin Name: Vanellus vanellus.<br />

The Northern Lapwing, also known as the<br />

peewit due to the sound of its call, is a Red<br />

listed species and can be found in our area,<br />

at the Marshside RSPB reserve. The Lapwing<br />

gets its common name from the distinctive<br />

lapping sound that the birds’ wings<br />

produce during flight.<br />

With its black and white appearance, its<br />

stunning flight and renowned crest, it really<br />

is one of the most beautiful birds you can<br />

find across our RSPB reserves.<br />

The Northern Lapwing is approximately<br />

28–33 cm in size with a 67–87 cm wingspan<br />

and weighing between 128 and 330 g. It has<br />

curved or rounded wings and a very obvious<br />

crest on its head. Its main overall colouring<br />

is black and white, but the birds back have a<br />

green colouring.<br />

The male bird has a longer crest than the<br />

female bird, and male lapwings also display<br />

a very noticeable black crown, throat and<br />

breast that contrast the birds white face.<br />

Females and younger birds have shorter<br />

crests, but also have less distinctly marked<br />

heads; however the plumages are not too<br />

dissimilar.<br />

Predators<br />

Lapwings have been known to display a<br />

behaviour known as a ‘distraction display.’<br />

This is where it will act as if has a broken or<br />

injured wing, with the aim of drawing<br />

potential predators away from its nest.<br />

The Lapwing feeds principally on insects<br />

and other small invertebrates and at<br />

Marshside a large proportion of its diet will<br />

be made up from aquatic invertebrates.<br />

National surveys between 1987 and 1998<br />

across England and Wales revealed a<br />

population decline with numbers of these<br />

birds being directly affected by intensive<br />

agriculture and upland grazing density.<br />

The lapwing is a star species at the<br />

Marshside RSPB reserve, they can be seen<br />

nesting here and as very protective parents<br />

they can often chase away a predator that<br />

get a little too close to their chicks or their<br />

nest.<br />

So, as always get your camera out and send<br />

me your snaps of our Northern Lapwing.<br />

Always remember never to disturb the<br />

animals.<br />

You can send your pictures to me via<br />

twitter @graeperry or hashtag<br />

thenaturetrail and youcan see all your<br />

picture by checking out<br />

www.graeperry.co.uk<br />

• Next week, I will introduce another<br />

animal found in our area, and this week’s<br />

clue is ‘has an Amber category by the RSPB<br />

with less than 900 breeding pairs in the UK.’<br />

Making a Mark at Royal Birkdale!<br />

Record–breaking<br />

crowds as Wiebe<br />

takes Senior Open<br />

after play–off<br />

Report by Henry James<br />

RECORD crowds flocked to Royal<br />

Birkdale Golf Club for the 2013<br />

Senior Open <strong>Champion</strong>ship that<br />

saw American Mark Wiebe<br />

eventually triumph in a dramatic<br />

sudden–death play–off as the<br />

tournament spilled over into a fifth<br />

day.<br />

Wiebe and German Bernhard<br />

Langer had to return to the course<br />

on Monday morning to determine<br />

the outcome of the prestigious title<br />

after finishing tied at the end of the<br />

72–hole championship.<br />

The pair had to play the 18th again<br />

in a play–off but were still level after<br />

playing the hole twice, each golfer<br />

parring the hole on both occasions.<br />

With darkness falling they were<br />

finally forced off the course and had<br />

to resume their head–to–head at<br />

8am on Monday.<br />

Langer had first chance to win with<br />

a 12–foot birdie putt at the third<br />

play–off hole, but his attempt<br />

stayed out.<br />

On the fourth occasion both<br />

players bogeyed the 18th.<br />

But Wiebe finally took the title<br />

after the fifth sudden–death hole<br />

when he parred while Langer failed<br />

to get up and down from behind a<br />

greenside bunker.<br />

Wiebe, 55, from Oregon becomes<br />

the eighth American to win the<br />

event and he picked up the<br />

240,000 first prize and an<br />

exception for next year’s Open<br />

<strong>Champion</strong>ship at Hoylake.<br />

Wonderful<br />

After receiving the trophy he said:<br />

“I have not had much sleep after<br />

last night and I am sure it has been<br />

the same for most of you here.<br />

“This week has been a wonderful<br />

experience. It was a shame that one<br />

of us had to lose. We both played<br />

good golf.<br />

“After playing Turnberry last year<br />

American Mark Wiebe with the 2013<br />

Senior Open <strong>Champion</strong>ship trophy<br />

Code NA<br />

for the Senior Open I said I would<br />

never like a course as much. But I<br />

may have to change my opinion<br />

after playing here.<br />

“This course is in immaculate<br />

shape, it is very demanding and it<br />

will have a special place in my<br />

heart.”<br />

Langer had led the event until the<br />

72nd hole but tied with Wiebe after<br />

a double–bogey.<br />

Play was suspended twice<br />

onSunday due to rain and lightning.<br />

More than 45,500 attended the<br />

championship, which was the<br />

highest attendance in the event’s<br />

27–year history, beating the<br />

previous record set at the 2008<br />

event at Royal Troon by almost<br />

4,000 people.<br />

Former Open champ<br />

O’Meara honoured<br />

MARK O’Meara was awarded<br />

honorary membership of Royal<br />

Birkdale Golf Club ahead of this<br />

week’s The Senior Open<br />

<strong>Champion</strong>ship.<br />

The American triumphed on the<br />

celebrated Southport links 15<br />

years ago to claim the Claret Jug<br />

following a play–off with Brian<br />

Watts, just months after winning<br />

his maiden Major at the Masters<br />

Tournament.<br />

“It’s an unbelievable tribute to<br />

be made an Honorary Member of<br />

Royal Birkdale,” said the<br />

56–year–old North Carolina<br />

native. “I’ve obviously had a long<br />

career of playing all the different<br />

links golf courses and I just have<br />

such fond memories of the great<br />

moments I’ve had here.<br />

“It’s my favourite links golf<br />

course anywhere in the world. It’s<br />

a true test of golf.<br />

“I first set eyes on it in 1987<br />

when I won the Lawrence Batley<br />

here; in ’91 I came back and<br />

played with Ian Baker–Finch tied<br />

for the lead.<br />

“But of course the Open<br />

<strong>Champion</strong>ship that was played<br />

here in ‘98 was a dream come<br />

true for me. To hold the Claret<br />

Jug right here on the 18th green<br />

was really the icing on the cake<br />

for me with my career.”<br />

Royal Birkdale Club Captain<br />

Mark O’Meara is presented with<br />

honorary membership of Royal<br />

Birkdale<br />

Code NA<br />

Jonathan Seal presented<br />

O’Meara with a commemorative<br />

tie ahead of the 27th edition of<br />

the Senior Open <strong>Champion</strong>ship.<br />

He said: “It is a huge pleasure to<br />

extend Honorary Membership to<br />

Mark in the way that we have our<br />

other previous Open <strong>Champion</strong>s<br />

going back to Peter Thomson,<br />

Arnold Palmer, Lee Trevino,<br />

Johnny Miller, Tom Watson and<br />

Ian Baker–Finch.<br />

“On behalf of all the members of<br />

Royal Birkdale, we welcome<br />

Mark on board.<br />

Southport Abbeyfield Society is a charity that for 40 years has been providing supported housing, for people at different stages of later life.<br />

We’re also a not-for-profit organisation with one mission: to enhance the quality of life for older people by making their lives easier and more fulfilling.<br />

A more fulfilling life<br />

A fulfi lling life is one that nourishes an<br />

individual’s physical, emotional and<br />

spiritual needs. It’s these needs that<br />

guide and shape the support and care we<br />

provide. As well as ensuring comfortable,<br />

safe and homely accommodation, we<br />

also foster an environment that aims to<br />

stimulate the mind, care and support the<br />

body and offer companionship for the soul.<br />

Warm, welcoming and supportive<br />

along with local volunteers make every effort to<br />

ensure you feel as welcome and as supported<br />

as possible. You’ll fi nd our accommodation<br />

encourages independent living, balanced<br />

with dignity and sensitivity, and a real sense of<br />

community and family.<br />

But don’t just take our word for it. See what<br />

some of our residents, their partners and their<br />

families have to say about us.<br />

• “Abbeyfield are wonderful marvellous<br />

places more like my dads home”<br />

• “I feel absolutely secure , happy at<br />

home , its like my family , yet I still have my<br />

independence”<br />

• Unique in its standing , my mum has her<br />

own place, staffs are lovely, I come and go<br />

as I please”<br />

• “peaceful happy atmosphere, we are like<br />

a great big rabbit warren we meet for lovely<br />

beautifully cooked meals and back to our<br />

burrow, lovely”<br />

• “Food is excellent there’s not another<br />

• “Abbeyfield Look after old people<br />

• “Yes, they have sorted extra care for me I<br />

the different stages of later life - all of which<br />

This means ensuring our houses and<br />

services support the values and preferences<br />

of older people, and provide a valuable link<br />

between residents, their families and the local<br />

community.<br />

Companionship and community<br />

Our sheltered houses have been run for<br />

40 years by local staff and volunteers who<br />

older people enjoy a full and purposeful<br />

life in the community. We understand how<br />

important freedom and independence are,<br />

but we are always there for reassurance and<br />

extra help if required<br />

The Best of Both Worlds<br />

One of the best decisions I have ever made<br />

was to move into Gadsby House, Alexandra<br />

road. I have kept my independence, but at<br />

the same time, I live in comfortable, friendly,<br />

secure environment, where my privacy is<br />

respected, but help is there when I need it.<br />

I am near to Lord St, shops, buses, library,<br />

theatres an all amenities the town has to<br />

offer, and having my own front door key I can<br />

come and go as I please.<br />

I even have garage space for my scooter!<br />

I can retire to my own rooms, surrounded by<br />

my own furniture and possessions, where I<br />

can pursue my hobbies or just enjoy some<br />

“peace and quiet”. My friends can visit<br />

whenever they wish.<br />

I have no worries about bills coming in as<br />

everything is included in the monthly rent,<br />

including two excellent meals in the dining<br />

room each day.<br />

You see what I mean the best of both worlds!<br />

The <strong>Champion</strong> • Wednesday 31 July 2013<br />

Roger’s<br />

top<br />

hat tip<br />

for<br />

Johnny<br />

Cash Roger Dean as Johnny Cash Code NA<br />

JOHNNY Cash fans<br />

should clear their<br />

calendars next year<br />

because if Roger<br />

Dean returns, he<br />

should be looking at<br />

a sell–out gig,writes<br />

David Raven<br />

The 67–year–old<br />

was at the Atkinson<br />

Theatre for his Cash<br />

tribute show on<br />

Saturday, July 27,<br />

armed with his<br />

backing band The<br />

Lazy Boys.<br />

My better half and I<br />

were clearly the<br />

youngest in the<br />

half–full audience, as<br />

sadly when Johnny<br />

Cash died we were in<br />

our early teens.<br />

But this was our<br />

second Cash tribute<br />

in the resort in as<br />

many months, after<br />

watching a fair<br />

performance by Clive<br />

John in the Johnny<br />

Cash Roadshow at<br />

Southport Theatre.<br />

In comparison, this<br />

week’s show was<br />

certainly more of a<br />

taster as to how the<br />

Man in Black left his<br />

fans captivated and<br />

spellbound by his<br />

dulcet earthy tones,<br />

which Roger seems to<br />

have nailed in his<br />

50–year showbiz<br />

career.<br />

The experience<br />

wasn’t perfect at the<br />

Atkinson – the<br />

armrests were akin to<br />

chop sticks and<br />

required careful<br />

strategic negotiation<br />

between you and<br />

your neighbour.<br />

And several<br />

audience members<br />

were also heard<br />

berating staff for a<br />

lack of those<br />

miniature<br />

extortionately priced<br />

ice creams (the<br />

theatre bar in the<br />

£17million centre<br />

doesn’t have a<br />

freezer).<br />

However, they were<br />

the only negatives in<br />

what could only be<br />

described as a<br />

near–perfect gig in<br />

one of the North<br />

West’s most intimate<br />

– and excellently air<br />

conditioned –<br />

venues.<br />

Roger, who first<br />

covered Johnny Cash<br />

aged 14 on a BBC<br />

show, utilised this to<br />

create a<br />

campfire–like<br />

atmosphere, as he<br />

told his carefully<br />

constructed story<br />

with a Tennessee<br />

twang, a few feet<br />

from his listeners.<br />

He never pulled any<br />

punches, covering<br />

Johnny from his<br />

darkest depths to his<br />

happiest moments –<br />

at times the audience<br />

were so engrossed<br />

you could hear a pin<br />

drop.<br />

The classics were<br />

present, ranging from<br />

Folsom Prison Blues<br />

EVENTS - OUT & ABOUT<br />

to Ring of Fire, but so<br />

was a mixture of less<br />

popular songs<br />

including Forty<br />

Shades of Green.<br />

Roger is no doubt<br />

hoping to make the<br />

Atkinson a regular<br />

fixture on his tour and<br />

judging by the<br />

audience reaction<br />

and standing ovation,<br />

it would be surprising<br />

if he does not return<br />

next year.<br />

If the real Johnny<br />

Cash was, by some<br />

miracle, watching<br />

this performance,<br />

there’s no doubt he<br />

would have given<br />

Roger a subtle tip of<br />

the hat.<br />

Star rating: 9/10<br />

Definitely worth<br />

splashing the Cash to<br />

see Rogers perform all<br />

the hits from the<br />

legend of sound.<br />

ANTIQUES IN THE PARK: THIS WEEKEND<br />

Victoria Park Southport, Saturday 3rd & Sunday 4th August 2013<br />

Asbridge Promotions (‘Antiques in the Park’)<br />

ONE of Merseyside’s biggest Antiques,<br />

Collectors and Vintage Fairs is coming to<br />

Victoria Park in Southport for the fi rst time<br />

this weekend Saturday, 3rd and Sunday, 4th<br />

August. The event, which is expected to attract<br />

thousands of visitors, has the capacity to hold<br />

up to 200 + stalls with outdoor spaces and a<br />

large indoor Marquee. The weekend event will<br />

containing many interesting stalls.<br />

Dave Asbridge, owner of local events<br />

company Asbridge Promotions, who runs the<br />

fair said: “It’s our fi rst time in Southport, and<br />

I can’t wait. I’ve been running Antiques and<br />

Collectors Fairs at places like the famous St<br />

George’s Hall Liverpool and The Floral Pavilion<br />

in New Brighton since 2008, and working with<br />

some of the best Antiques and Collectibles<br />

dealers in the UK.” He continued: “We make<br />

sure at our fairs that there’s something for<br />

everyone. Many stalls have very reasonably<br />

priced items and upwards to the more high end<br />

items with an excellent selection of, ceramics,<br />

jewellery, furniture, militaria, postcards, vintage<br />

fashion, glassware & much, much more. Our<br />

vintage fashion stalls are particularly popular<br />

at the moment, as well as antique furniture.<br />

People come to our Fairs from miles around.<br />

You really can pick up some great bargains.”<br />

Dave, a successful entrepreneurial spirit<br />

says he has been passionate about antiques<br />

since he was a very young boy. He added:<br />

“I’ve always had a passion for antiques and<br />

all things vintage, and I am committed to<br />

running quality Antique and Collectors Fairs on<br />

Merseyside in great venues. I began my path<br />

to organising collectors events inspired by the<br />

original Quiggins in School Lane, Liverpool<br />

way back in the 80’s as a vintage toy shop unit<br />

holder, and the Quiggins ethos of providing<br />

great opportunities for people wanting to trade<br />

with quality inspired stalls, trail blazing forward<br />

for our region is what inspirers me today going<br />

forward with a great determination to provide<br />

well run events. We are pleased to say we are<br />

succeeding in doing this so far.”<br />

Dave said “Being true to your word in business<br />

is paramount to be able to work with people<br />

in business who demonstrate having patience<br />

and integrity the vital ingredients to grow<br />

strong events into the future, something that<br />

has been demonstrated to me thanks to the<br />

fantastic Victoria Park management working<br />

with me towards this weekends event.<br />

The Fair is being held in conjunction with the<br />

Southport Flower Show Company, which<br />

is a charitable organisation and some of<br />

the proceeds will go towards the charity<br />

(Registered Charity Number 1000698). This<br />

is a joint venture between the Flower Show<br />

Management and Dave’s company Asbridge<br />

Promotions.<br />

If you’re interested in having a stall at the<br />

event (Antiques, Collectables & Vintage stalls<br />

only please) or for any other inquiries then<br />

by all means get in touch: Call Dave on 0151<br />

My Yippee ki–yay for<br />

American muscle cars<br />

David is slightly obsessed with American cars after a visit to<br />

Tatton Park.<br />

Code NA<br />

IT’S the baking heat and one<br />

too many cheeseburgers<br />

which I blame for my latest<br />

motoring misadventure.<br />

Cast your mind back a<br />

couple of weeks. While you<br />

were queuing up for ice<br />

cream served by a bald bloke<br />

in the back of an ancient<br />

Bedford van I was rolling up<br />

in the grounds of a stately<br />

home in Cheshire that, for the<br />

day at least, had become a<br />

little overseas corner of<br />

California. Acres of nothing<br />

but old American cars –<br />

that’s the Stars ‘n’ Stripes<br />

show at Tatton Park for you.<br />

Old Yank tanks aren’t<br />

normally my bag but what<br />

started out as a work<br />

assignment quickly became<br />

an indulgence in fins, chrome<br />

or check out our website at www.champnews.com<br />

and people wearing precious<br />

little but denim shorts and<br />

cowboy hats. As Sweet Home<br />

Alabama belted out of the<br />

stereo and I wandered,<br />

slightly heat hazed, through<br />

a sea of Confederate flags,<br />

pick–up trucks and Cadillacs,<br />

I might have got a bit carried<br />

away with the whole<br />

American cars are just<br />

brilliant thing. I left Tatton<br />

Park not just with plenty of<br />

pictures, but my very own<br />

American dream too.<br />

Wouldn’t it be nice to get<br />

behind the wheel of an<br />

American car myself? My<br />

head, for about a fortnight<br />

afterwards, was full of ideas.<br />

Perhaps I could lower the<br />

power–operated hood on a<br />

’62 Cadillac – so much cooler<br />

1119399<br />

than the Thelma and Louisa<br />

’59 model – and cruise down<br />

the nearest sun–kissed<br />

boulevard, or play the rebel<br />

without a clue in a Chevrolet<br />

El Camino SS (Google it, trust<br />

me). I even entertained the<br />

idea, despite the ongoing<br />

Queer As Folk connotations<br />

in this country, of blagging a<br />

go in a Jeep Wrangler.<br />

I really, really, wanted to go<br />

for a drive in an American<br />

car. Unfortunately, fate dealt<br />

me with a cruel hand and<br />

gave me one.<br />

True, it was a Chevy, but it<br />

wasn’t an old Corvette or Bel<br />

Air. It wasn’t even the<br />

intriguingly entertaining<br />

Camaro Convertible I tried<br />

last year. It was a Captiva,<br />

which is the Vauxhall<br />

Antara’s cheapskate<br />

American cousin. Only it<br />

isn’t really all that American<br />

because – like the Antara – it<br />

was developed and made in<br />

South Korea. Not that I’d<br />

mind if it was any good, but it<br />

isn’t. It’s roomy but it’s not<br />

especially nice to drive and<br />

the materials on the inside<br />

feel at least a generation<br />

behind most of the<br />

competition.<br />

Worst of all, it’s a<br />

Chevrolet, so you know full<br />

well that while your Stateside<br />

cousins are lapping up the<br />

sunshine in proper American<br />

cars, you’re getting<br />

lumbered with what’s<br />

basically an old Daewoo<br />

cast–off. Still, I was looking<br />

for a drive in an American<br />

car, and I sort of got one.<br />

As the saying goes, be<br />

careful what you wish for.<br />

The <strong>Champion</strong> • Wednesday 31 July 2013<br />

New continental<br />

rival for E–Class<br />

Maserati is aiming straight at Mercedes buyers with the new Ghibli<br />

Code NA<br />

Report by David Simister<br />

ANY middle management types<br />

bored with BMW and unmoved<br />

by Mercedes are being offered a<br />

tempting new Italian alternative.<br />

Maserati has confirmed that its<br />

first ever rival for the likes of the<br />

5–Series, E–Class and Jaguar’s<br />

XF, the new Ghibli saloon, will<br />

arrive in the UK later this year,<br />

with prices starting at £48,830.<br />

The company, which is hailing<br />

the executive saloon as a turning<br />

point in its history, said: “The<br />

Ghibli will give Maserati two<br />

four–door saloon models for the<br />

first time in its history.<br />

“The Ghibli is smaller, shorter,<br />

lighter, more dynamic, less<br />

expensive and more economical<br />

than the flagship Quattroporte<br />

and provides a cornerstone in<br />

Maserati’s plans to build 50,000<br />

cars a year by 2015.”<br />

The entry–level model will<br />

include another first for Maserati<br />

– a diesel engine – with a choice<br />

of two turbocharged V6 petrol<br />

units also available for<br />

traditionalists.<br />

While the Ghibli name recalls<br />

the company’s two–door<br />

supercars of the Sixties the new<br />

car shares much in common with<br />

the larger Quattroporte saloon,<br />

which went on sale earlier this<br />

year.<br />

SF<br />

No prizes for VW<br />

VOLKSWAGEN won’t win any<br />

prizes for imaginative naming<br />

with its latest arrival.<br />

The latest limited edition<br />

version of its Jetta saloon is<br />

called, well its called the Jetta<br />

Limited Edition.<br />

Yet what it lacks in a snappy<br />

name it more than makes up for<br />

with value for money.<br />

For £160 extra buyers get a<br />

whopping £2,900 toys thrown<br />

into the deal, including<br />

touchscreen satellite<br />

navigation, front and rear<br />

parking sensors<br />

The Jetta Limited Edition, of<br />

which 450 are available across<br />

the UK, costs £20,750.<br />

SPORT<br />

Nine new players shape<br />

future of Sandgrounders<br />

Report by Ron Ellis<br />

WITH six friendlies under their belt, most of<br />

the trialists weeded out and nine new players<br />

signed to date, the shape of the Southport team<br />

is becoming clearer and, with just a fortnight to<br />

go before the opening league game, we have a<br />

better chance of assessing the club’s prospects<br />

for the forthcoming season.<br />

Most encouraging have been the<br />

performances against Chesterfield and<br />

Fleetwood Town, both League Two clubs who<br />

fielded virtually their full first elevens and who<br />

were matched by their Conference opponents.<br />

Fans are encouraged by the fact that Alan<br />

Wright is committed to playing on the ground,<br />

passing football, eschewing the ‘hoofball’ of<br />

recent seasons, which nevertheless brought<br />

unprecedented success to Southport FC.<br />

Unlike Paul Cook, who had similar ambitions<br />

but was handicapped by starting from scratch,<br />

Alan Wright has been able to augment his<br />

talented inherited squad with players he<br />

expects will help himachieve his aim and he<br />

has the defensive experience to make it work.<br />

On his initial outings for his new club, Jamie<br />

Milligan has shown that he could become<br />

another Sandgrounders legend. Liam Willis is<br />

Free games for<br />

young Yellows<br />

STARTING this September,<br />

Primary School children can<br />

watch all Southport FC Football<br />

Conference League matches<br />

FREE of charge.<br />

For the first time in the club’s<br />

long history, Southport FC have<br />

launched a young supporters<br />

club.<br />

It is called Yellow Bird Club<br />

and is especially for primary<br />

school boys and girls.<br />

Sponsored by <strong>Champion</strong><br />

<strong>Newspapers</strong>, the Yellow Bird<br />

Club is designed to encourage<br />

young supporters and to help<br />

create a family friendly<br />

atmosphere at the Merseyrail<br />

Community Stadium.<br />

Haydn Preece, community and<br />

commercial director, explained<br />

that being a member of the<br />

Yellow Bird Club means boys<br />

and girls aged eleven and under<br />

are welcomed as VIPs.<br />

Members are allowed to watch<br />

developing intoafirst class defender and Chris<br />

Lynch and Stephen Ackrigg, back from injury,<br />

are set to build on last season’s promise.<br />

Probably a centre forward and another<br />

midfielder will be enough the complete a<br />

promising squad whose attractive football will<br />

not only delight the fans but should also bring<br />

in the points as well.<br />

Against Fleetwood Town on Saturday, 603<br />

spectators saw The Port hold their League Two<br />

opponents toadraw.<br />

The Cod scored first after 25 minutes, when<br />

Danny Hurst dropped ashot by Murdock, and<br />

Ball was on hand to put it into the net but, as<br />

the interval approached,Jamie Milligan scored<br />

the equaliser from the spot against his old club<br />

after Liam Hogan had handledaChris Almond<br />

effort.<br />

Two bad misses by Steven Tames emphasised<br />

the need for another striker to partner Danny<br />

Hattersley but the early signs are encouraging<br />

indeed.<br />

After last night’s match at Bamber Bridge,<br />

The Yellows travel to Cammell Lairds on<br />

Thursday night before completing their<br />

... and half price travel for Non–League Day<br />

SATURDAY September 7 is<br />

Non–League Day and, to mark the<br />

event, Trust in Yellow is giving ALL<br />

fans the chance to travel to<br />

Southport’s match at Tamworth for<br />

half the usual price. This means<br />

In the First Division, former Indian<br />

Test batsman Wasim Jaffer racked up<br />

his 1000th league run of the season in<br />

Ainsdale’s tied match at Northop<br />

Hall, after being put in to bat Ainsdale<br />

declared on 202–8 off 46.5 overs,<br />

with Jaffer top scoring with 80, with<br />

debutant and former England Test<br />

bowler Sajid Mahmood and Sam<br />

Lucas both scoring 33.<br />

In reply Ainsdale had the hosts<br />

168–9, before a dramatic last wicket<br />

stand from Danny Clubbe (33*) and<br />

Luke Davies (11) took the scores level,<br />

leaving Mahmood to dismiss Davies<br />

and dramatically tie the match in the<br />

50th over with the hosts all out for<br />

202, with Mahmood (4–77) and Mal<br />

Swift (3–37) taking the bowling<br />

honours.<br />

Formby were put in to bat at home<br />

against Liverpool and eventually<br />

bowled out for 232 in 60.1 overs, with<br />

Ian Cockbain (45), Lawrence<br />

Armstrong (39), Elliot Ketteringham<br />

(38), Jan Gadzina (35*) and Aaron<br />

Flaherty (25) all scoring valuable<br />

runs. In reply the visitors scored<br />

214–8, with Daniel Hints (69) top<br />

Trust members can book their<br />

coach seat to the game for a bargain<br />

£8 and non–members just £10.<br />

The Trust is hoping to take two<br />

coaches departing from Haig<br />

Avenue, at 11am. Interest is<br />

scoring with the bat whilst Armstrong<br />

took 3–68 with the ball.<br />

High flying Northern now top the<br />

Liverpool & District Cricket<br />

Competition Premier Division by 76<br />

points, which almost equates to 3<br />

maximum point victories after<br />

beating Fleetwood Hesketh by 98 runs<br />

at Sea Cop. After electing to bat<br />

Northern had to thank Lancashire’s<br />

Paul Horton who top scored with 84<br />

on debut and Tom Bailey who hit 37<br />

late on as they struggled to 161 all<br />

out, on a pitch offering something for<br />

most bowlers with Tommy Wareing<br />

spinning his way to an impressive<br />

6–48.<br />

In reply Fleetwood were then<br />

dismissed for just 63 in 25.4 overs,<br />

with inform duo Tom Sephton (6–27)<br />

and Stephen Cole (4–31) bowling<br />

unchanged and doing all the damage<br />

with the ball.<br />

Over at Trafalgar Road Hightown<br />

recorded their second win of the<br />

season over Southport & Birkdale<br />

with a comprehensive 8 wicket win,<br />

after electing to bat the bat first the<br />

hosts were dismissed for 146, with<br />

Scott Lees (36) and Mark Fletcher top<br />

scoring, whilst Ian Sutcliffe (4–41)<br />

and Andy Warhurst (4–44) were the<br />

pick of the bowlers. In reply, two<br />

expected to be high, so book your<br />

place now by calling Alan<br />

Scarisbrick on 07980911693 or<br />

visit the Trust office. To benefit<br />

from the half–price discount, you<br />

must pay in advance.<br />
