TRACK YOUR CHILDREN BY SATELLITE PARENTS in Wrexham will be able to check if their child is on the school bus thanks to a satellite tracking system.

STAR is part of a groundbreaking pilot scheme launched on Tuesday at the Alun School in Mold aimed at improving behaviour on journeys to school. Pupils will use a picture swipe card to clock on and off the bus allowing parents to keep a closer check on their child if they choose. It will help deal with a number of issues including truancy, drivers reporting and identifying ill-behaved children and monitoring a child’s whereabouts in the event of them going missing or a bus breakdown. The STAR scheme is part of the wider Zoom project, supported by the Welsh Assembly Government, which aims to reduce anti-social behaviour on the school bus. The scheme is being trialled across the six counties of North Wales for a 12 month period. Peter Daniels, transport manager at Denbighshire County Council and head of the Zoom project, said: “The main aims are to support schools, drivers, parents and pupils on school buses to improve behaviour and enable them to understand the consequences of some of the things they do.

Campaign to cut bad behaviour on buses By Lois York “I have to say in North East Wales we don’t really see trouble and misbehaviour, but in the afternoon some of the pupils can be jolly and minor anti-social behaviour can occur, or from time to time something more serious.” Other aspects of the scheme include Bus Angels – aged 14 and above who covertly report incidents of bad behaviour – CCTV, plus training to help bus drivers cope with anti-social behaviour. Until the end of May a multi-media drama presentation is also being taken to every secondary school in North East Wales, tackling the issue of bad behaviour on school transport. A cohesive support strategy linking schools, transport departments, bus companies and the police will also be introduced.

OAP dies after crash A PENSIONER has been killed in a car crash. Trefor Iwan Jones, of Crogen, Chirk, died at the Countess of Chester Hospital. The 74-year-old’s vehicle, a blue Nissan Primera, left the A543 in Clutton, near Chester, on the Wrexham side of the Broxton roundabout close to the Egerton Arms pub. The smash happened at about 8.40am on Monday and no other vehicle was involved. The road was closed following the incident, with traffic diverted. A spokeswoman for Cheshire police said: “Emergency services attended the scene and the male diver of the Primera was taken to the Countess of Chester Hospital where he sadly later died.” As the Chronicle went to press, Mr Jones’ relatives did not wish to comment. The case has been referred to the coroner. Police are appealing for any witnesses to the incident to come forward by calling officers on 0845 458 0000.

Man stole money from woman’s bra A MAN drank a bottle of vodka then made sexual advances toward a 50-year-old woman. She resisted and told Joseph Willis, 45, to stop it but he got his hands inside her bra. But there he found something – an envelope containing £700. Willis took it and fled, but not before punching his victim to the face. She tried to keep him in her flat, where he had been as a guest, while she rang the police.

While on bail he burgled a house run by the charity MIND in Foster Road and stole its television. Last Thursday, Willis, of Connor Crescent, Wrexham, admitted burglary, assault, theft and criminal damage. In a letter to the court, he said he had a terminal heart condition and had recently married but his wife had a condition which meant she would die within a year. She was pregnant, which was a deliberate decision so something would survive from

their relationship, explained defence barrister Henry Gow. He said Willis, who has a long list of previous convictions including robbery and kidnapping, would not offend again and was now aware of his own mortality. But Judge John Rogers QC said he had taken into account everything said on his behalf and written in his letter – and jailed him for two years and eight months. “Only prison sentences are appropriate,” said the judge.

Full steam ahead for rail celebration UP TO 10,000 spectators are expected at a nine-day steam gala on Llangollen Railway, which was opened by pop mogul and railway buff Pete Waterman. Locomotives at the Steel, Steam and Stars 2, which runs until Sunday, will include the Royal Scot and the 100mph record-breaking City of Truro. Mr Waterman formally opened the extravaganza, organised by the Bretton Grange Society, by waving off the first train at 8am on Saturday. That was hauled by former Great Western Railway Dukedog class locomotive No 9017 – an engine which is being reunited with the Llangollen line from its base on the Bluebell Railway in Sussex where it has been for the past 49 years. Retired steam engine driver Aled Roberts, from Wrexham, was there to greet the No 9017. Mr Roberts was a firefighter then driver at Wrexham’s Croes Newydd engine shed, where he worked on a range of Great Western engines including the Dukedog class, several of which were based in Croes Newydd during the 1950s. George Jones, of Llangollen Railway, said: “The locomotive crew was delighted to be able to reunite Aled with one of his former engines and he was thrilled to take a ride on the footplate of the Dukedog. The occasion brought back a flood of memories for Aled, who can recall many instances when work-

They include non-stop expresses, local stopping pas-

New non-emergency number A NEW phone service designed to take the pressure off 999 services has been launched. People living in Wales can now call the police on 101 if they want to speak to an officer but their problem is not an emergency. Organisers say the new number will run alongside 999 and is not intended to replace it. Calls made to 101 will be answered by dedicated call handlers who work in the same force area as the calls are made. Calls will cost 10p from both land lines and mobiles. A spokeswoman for North Wales Police

said: “People are still advised to call 999 if violence is being used or threatened, there is danger to life, a crime is in progress or offenders carrying out a crime have recently been disturbed, and if there has been a road accident where people are injured, or there has been a non-injury accident where traffic is affected. “Out of the 110,000 calls made to 999 for the North Wales Police, only 39% require an emergency response. This means that 999 call handlers are dealing with 61% of non-emergencies. The 101 number will take the strain off the emergency call handlers and enable them to dispatch a response to the emergency calls quicker.”

Chance to have say on Assembly THE All Wales Convention will be hosting a public discussion group event at Glyndw ˆr University, Wrexham, this evening. Running from 6.30-8.30pm, it will provide information on the work of the All Wales Convention and engage members of the public in the big debate on the future direction of the National Assembly. The key questions for discussion revolve around how the people of Wales want the National Assembly to increase its law-making powers – to keep with the current stepby-step approach, or to get the powers all in one go. The event will be hosted by TV personality

A new online forum is also up and running at www.allwalesconvention.org to allow people to share their opinions on what they think about devolution in Wales. The All Wales Convention, chaired by Sir Emyr Jones Parry, is a totally independent and impartial body. Following this consultation period, the All Wales Convention, made up of 16 executive committee members alongside Sir Emyr, will present their findings by the end of 2009. He said: “We want to inform and engage as many people as possible to enable them to make informed decisions on whether they would like more powers or not for their

senger and goods trains and up to 10 different locomotives. Visitors are able to enjoy the railway’s own real ale festival, and 60 miniature locomotives five miles down the line at Glyndyfrdwy station. ■ For tickets, or further details, call Llangollen Railway on 01978 860979.

Tenant event up for award AN EVENT aimed at helping tenants to take action to stop anti-social behaviour is in the running for a national award. Clwyd Alyn Housing Association, part of the Pennaf Housing Group, held a conference for tenants and residents across North and Mid Wales last year, aimed at increasing awareness of how Clwyd Alyn supports tenants in helping them to resolve anti-social behaviour issues. The conference has now been nominated for the Communication in Housing section of the TPAS Cymru awards. The awards are presented annually by the Tenant Participation Advisory Service (TPAS).The results will be announced at Venue Cymru, Llandudno, on May 1. Tracy Shenton, anti-social behaviour co-ordinator, said: “The conference was an excellent way of communicating directly with our tenants, not only to present information about the steps tenants and residents need and the support available for them but also to listen and receive feedback about how we can continue to improve the services we provide. “After listening to tenants’ views at the conference, a range of literature has been produced to help them through the whole process.” Community involvement officer Gareth HughesRoberts, who nominated the conference, said: “The cross-section of different ages of those attending also helped to break down barriers and stereotypes concerning anti-social behaviour issues.”

Guilty plea on kidnap charge

NEWSFile Sex grooming denied

A MAN who was staying at a Wrexham bail hostel has denied grooming two young girls for sex. Patrick Brendan Smith, 44, also known as Patrick Brendan Reilly, appeared in custody at Mold Crown Court on Friday facing two charges or arranging or facilitating the commission of a child sex offence. The prosecution allege that while he was staying at the Plas y Wern Bail Hostel, Plas Madoc, near Wrexham, in January of this year, he arranged two meet two girls, under the age of 16, at the rear of a local public house the following week. Smith pleaded not guilty to both offences and was remanded in custody pending trial next month.

Counterfeit notes charge A PLASTERER has denied two currency offences. Defendant Ryan Richards, 35, of Y Wern, Caia Park, Wrexham, is alleged to have tendered a counterfeit £20 note at a local public house on October 28 last year, and to have been in control of a counterfeit £20 note. He denied both offences when he appeared at Mold Crown Court on Friday and Judge John Rogers QC adjourned the case for trial. Richards was bailed on condition that he does not enter the pub where the offences allegedly took place.

Writing workshop

BUDDING writers are invited to a creative writing workshop entitled Black, White and Shades of Grey at Bersham Heritage Centre on Saturday.

Bingo to calm pupils

MECCA Bingo Wrexham’s club manager, Bryan Tyrrell, is offering teachers specially designed crash courses in the ever-popular game. It follows a Government report recommending pupils play bingo to stop them misbehaving. Mecca will be giving away free bingo books to teachers, on a first come first served basis.

COMMUNITY ACTION: Clair Evans, Re-cycle Michael, Maria Hughes and unpaid workers Keith Jones and Shaun Martin.

Offenders in clear-up OFFENDERS have played a vital role in an initiative aimed at promoting recycling while giving a financial boost to a youth venture. They helped collect more than a quarter of a tonne of clothing and cardboard in the Wynnstay ward, which covers part of Caia Park. In addition to the North Wales Probation area, other partners included Wrexham County Borough Council,

youngsters from The Venture centre and local residents. They were joined by Michael, the mascot for the council’s Recycle with Michael campaign. Council recycling officer Clair Evans said: “We are grateful to the local people for their co-operation, but lots of residents said Easter had been difficult because they had so much stuff like cardboard to get rid of.”

The Probation Service supported the project by distributing flyers detailing the event to 800 properties a week in advance. Another team of offenders then returned to collect all the binbags. The clothing collected was delivered to Dee-Tex, the non-profit-making business at Saltney which then pays for the materials, with funds going to The Venture, on Caia Park.

A MAN has admitted kidnapping his former partner in Ruabon. David Walker, 45, of Rupert Drive, Everton, pleaded guilty to kidnapping Sharon O'Neil on February 4. Charges against his two daughters, Chelsea and Kelly O'Neill, who denied kidnapping their mother, were dropped and allowed to remain on file. Kelly O'Neill, 25, of Genista Close, Liverpool, pleaded guilty to damaging a window at the house in Mount Pleasant, Ruabon, belonging to Michael John Glover, and assaulting her mother, during the incident. Chelsea O'Neil, 20, also of Rupert Drive, admitted causing damage to a picture frame at the house and burglary after she stole a mobile phone from the house. The judge agreed pre-sentence reports should be prepared and adjourned the case for a month. The defendants were bailed on condition they live at their homes, have no contact with Sharon O'Neil, and are banned from North Wales apart from attending court.

New cemetery to open

WREXHAM’S new cemetery on Plas Acton Road, Pandy, will be officially opened at 11am on Monday, May 11. It will take over from Ruabon Road cemetery which opened in 1876 and has buried more than 37,000 people, but there are only a few plots left.

By Lois York HORN-RIMMED or high fashion, a Wrexham optician wants your old glasses to make a difference to people in one of Africa’s most spectacular and troubled countries.

David Walker, who runs Eye Style By Design with partner Janet in Wrexham’s Bank Street, has been travelling to Ethiopia with the charity Vision Aid Overseas for more than 20 years. Now he has teamed up with solicitors Cyril Jones and Co to collect old spectacles to renovate and send to the Third World. He said: “We desperately need old and discarded pairs of spectacles – they may no longer be of any use to the owners but they can make all the difference in the world to someone in a country like Ethiopia.” Collection points can be found at branches in Egerton Street and Grosvenor Road, Wrexham and Chester Road West, Shotton. “People like me who wear glasses tend to take them for granted, they’re a fact of life, but they can be a matter of life and death to someone in a country like Ethiopia,” he said. Ravaged by war and famine, Ethiopia is one of the poorest countries in Africa with a population of 78 million and 84 different languages. David added: “Last time I was out there we provided glasses to a man who used to be a tailor but because of his deteriorating eyesight he hadn’t been able to work.

Gardening firm rides the recession well AROUND 50 new jobs will be created in North Wales by a lawn firm which has boomed despite the recession. Green Thumb Ltd has seen an upturn in business as people invest in their homes rather than move house because of the credit crunch. The company, based in St Asaph, with eight of its 186 branches in Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire, Gwynedd, Wrexham and Oswestry, has predicted a 25% growth in business over the next two years. Its annual turnover is expected to hit £100m by 2012. Managing director Jeff Williams said the company is benefiting from customers with a static home-base. He said: “The main reason that people leave us is because they’re moving but because it is proving difficult for people to sell their properties they are investing more time and money in their homes. “We are incredibly excited about the potential for our business which has picked up a lot over the last 10 to 12 years.” Green Thumb maintains and repairs garden lawns and will create 1,000 new jobs in total across the UK over the next three years.

SPECS APPEAL: David Walker, of Eye Style By Design, right, with Gareth Kelly and Sandra Vaughan of Cyril Jones and Co. “A pair of old glasses from the UK meant he was able to earn a living again because a tailor is a vital part of society. “Because there is little money no clothes are ever thrown away, they are repaired.” David and his partner, Janet, have lived in Borras, Wrexham, for several years and she hopes to accompany him to Ethiopia later this year. Once there he will be working with a team from Vision Aid Overseas to treat people with vision and optical problems.

“The specs are sent away to prisons where we have trained the inmates to clean spectacle lenses, straighten them, rate the power and rebag them for shipment to a country like Ethiopia. Then we go out there as a team of ophthalmic and dispensing opticians and find thousands of pairs of glasses waiting for us.” Once in a country like Ethiopia the team will travel out to outlying villages where they can find people have walked up to 10 miles to be seen by the experts.

Toddler saved from potty

SPECIALIST firefighters had to cut a toddler free after she got her foot stuck in a potty handle. Dad Kevin Rogers dialled 999 when three-year-old daughter Rebecca, from Chirk, got trapped in her little sister’s new toilet. It took a team of three experienced firefighters 10 minutes to gently cut the distressed toddler free of her 98p Asda potty prison with specialist gear. Kevin said: “We had only just bought the potty to get her sister Daniella to start toilet training. “I could hear her screaming and rushed in to see what was going.

OOPS A DAISY: Kevin Rogers with daughter Rebecca. “Her foot was stuck in the handle. I tried to get it off, but there was just no way to do it,

she was getting very distressed and her ankle was going purple. It was in a vicelike grip.” Kevin raised the alarm, but did not expect a full blown fire truck to turn up to the incident. “I could see the neighbours’ curtains twitching,” he said. “Three firefighters came in. They couldn’t cut straight through it so used a knife to cut very gently round.” “You can laugh about it now, but at the time it was upsetting to see Rebecca getting so distressed.” Kevin said the firefighters told him it was the first time they had had to remove a potty.

Brothers stole from friend’s house TWO brothers burgled the home of a friend and when caught red handed told the victim not to say anything about it. When the victim and his girlfriend returned home to Malbrook, Acrefair, at 11.45pm on December 3 they found brothers Brian and Ryan Moore, of Alwen, Acrefair, in the house and the plasma television valued at £1,000 had gone. Ryan Moore, 17, left and instructed his brother Brian, 19, to remain to make sure they didn’t mention their names, said Judge John Rogers QC, sitting at Mold Crown Court on Friday. “It’s a case of ‘we are the Moores, don’t cross us,” the judge explained.

Brian Moore received eight months youth custody and Ryan Moore a 12 month detention and training order. Prosecutor Karen Mullin told how a young man lived with his grandmother and he was looking after the property while she was on holiday. Nicholas Williams, for Brian Moore, said they had not acted in a threatening way when caught but did ask that they should not be named. James Cullen, defending, said Ryan Moore had a job interview, was committed to change his behaviour, and was making a fresh start.

Hoax ‘bomber’ given five-year prison term A HOAX caller who told Wrexham shop staff there was a bomb in their store has been jailed for five years. Paul William Jones, 30, was sentenced at Chester Crown Court

Paul William Jones

for three counts of communicating false information with intent on January 29. The court heard Jones made hoax calls to Poundland in the Island Green Shopping Centre, Wrexham, Iceland in Frodsham Street, Chester, and the Bullring Shopping Centre, Birmingham. In each call he claimed there was a bomb on the premises. Jones, of Maple Avenue, Oswestry, also asked the Recorder of Chester, Judge

Elgan Edwards, to take 16 similar offences into consideration. Jones first rang The Bullring saying he had planted a bomb. A search was carried out but the centre was not evacuated. Jones then phoned Poundland in Wrexham, sparking an evacuation and search. At 5.30pm Jones phoned Iceland’s Chester store. The store was evacuated and the premises searched, causing disruption and loss of trade. Jones called Miss Edwards at Poundland again at 6.30pm and warned her against reporting the call to police. Officers began a search of Chester city centre and arrested Jones in St Werburgh Street at 7.45pm. The court heard Jones told officers he had suffered a breakdown. He had tried to obtain counselling but had failed and was angry. The series of phone calls was a release for the anger. The court heard Jones had a criminal record dating to

1997 for similar offences and had served several jail sentences for making hoax phone calls to locations including Wrexham, Chester and the Arndale Centre in Manchester. Ashley Barnes, defending, said: “The defendant acknowledges this is something that continues to happen as a strategy for dealing with the upsets of life and it's something that needs to be dealt with.” Judge Edwards said the 38 days that Jones spent on remand would be deducted from the sentence.

Youth head-butted carer A TEENAGER decided to abscond during a swimming session in Wrexham and ended up head-butting and kicking his carer. The youth, 16, had been placed in North Wales by an authority in Surrey and was living at a Care UK care home near Barmouth. However, during a visit to Water World the boy and another youth decided to run off. A care worker followed and was head-butted and kicked. The victim ended up with a swollen cheek, a cut and swollen lip and other injuries, Flintshire Magistrates Court was told. The boy admitted an as-

sault charge and was bailed pending sentence, which will take place in Surrey where he is already due to appear. But he was re-bailed in the meantime to live at the same care home where he must abide by the rules. He was also ordered to have weekly contact with the Gwynedd Môn Youth Justice Service. The court heard officials were concerned that while the boy had been transferred to North Wales, the local youth justice service were not aware he was in their area, there had been no contact and he was also on an electronic tag but that was not being monitored.

Firms in line for business award TWO Wrexham businesses could be crowned winners in the first national Nectar Business Small Business Awards. George Smith, chief executive officer of model train manufacturer Dapol Ltd, has entered his Chirk-based company into the Small Business of the Year category and Vertupak Ltd, an environmentally friendly packaging company founded by Peter Davies, has been entered into the Start Up of the Year category.

Final call for TA recruits to join challenge A FINAL call is being made for budding soldiers to take part in the Territorial Army’s Summer Challenge Wales. New TA recruits who take part in the challenge will undergo a compressed two week military training programme in July at Maindy Barracks in Cardiff. This will be followed by up to

four weeks of specific trade training to gain the skills needed to become a fully fledged member of the TA. The deadline for applying to the scheme is just weeks away. Geraint Jones, of Wrexham, joined the TA as a student needing extra cash. Now a lance corporal, the

25-year-old said: “I would recommend joining the TA, especially if you’re a student because it’s a good way of getting a bit of money on the side while you study and there’s a decent social side to it as well. It also gives you a better idea of what the Army is like if you were thinking about joining.”

After graduating L Cpl Jones volunteered for two operational tours to Iraq, to support the Regular Army. He is now due to start a two-year full-time contract with the Regular Army. ■ For more information on attending Summer Challenge Wales call 0845 873 2422.

In the mix for award By Lois York A YOUNG entrepreneur hopes his unique flair will be the cocktail for success at a business awards night.

Jonathan Hughes from Wrexham only started his professional bar tending firm J and Jay Events in January, but has already made it onto the shortlist for the 2009 HSBC Start-Up Stars Awards – an annual search for the UK’s most promising start-up businesses, which rewards the winner with £25,000. The 22-year-old’s mobile cocktail service is leading the way for Wales and made waves at the Grand National earlier this month when he wowed the Aintree crowds with his mixology flair. Jonathan, who’s been bar tending for three years, has a degree in business from Chester University. He said: “As far as I’m aware I’m the only person doing this in North Wales, and the feedback so far has been terrific. “It takes hours of practice every day to flair, which is basically the art of throwing bottles and tins around and trying to catch them! He added: “What I’m more interested in and passionate about is the mixology side, taking ingredients and flavours and creating a new drink. “I would practise and practise at home and found that I was pretty good at it, I seemed to have a natural instinct for flavours and colouring.” Jonathan is starting a training

SHAKE IT: Professional bar tender Jonathan Hughes is hoping to win the HSBC Start-Up Stars Awards with his cocktail-making moves. sr160409cocktail-4 course in the coming weeks. But his dream is to eventually leave the mobile side of the business for a more permanent location.

Head of business banking for HSBC Huw Morgan added: “We know Wrexham has some truly inspiring start-up stories.

“Now we want local entrepreneurs to step forward and prove that with the right help and support, there are still opportunities out there.”

AM gives backing to car scrapping scheme WREXHAM AM Lesley Griffiths is urging the Welsh Assembly Government to support calls for the introduction of a car scrappage incentive scheme for second hand vehicles to help boost the Welsh automotive industry. The Labour AM said the scheme

would provide an incentive for owners of cars and vans over nine years old to scrap their car, in accordance with the European End of Life Vehicle directive, in exchange for £2,000 towards a new or nearly new vehicle. He feels the incentive would boost UK new car sales and place Welsh

automotive industry on a much safer footing. Similar schemes have already been introduced in other countries with great success and in recent weeks, the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, Welsh employer organisations and Welsh car dealers have all

called for the scheme to be implemented in the UK. Ms Griffiths said: “Our automotive component business is worth £2 billion to Wales. It is obvious that we have to support policies that help protect that sector of our economy and a scrappage scheme does exactly this.”

Farm infections alert

Skydive for charity

School gates prize

THE Health Protection Agency is advising Wrexham parents planning to take children on farm visits to observe strict hygiene rules after touching or stroking animals to avoid a range of potentially serious infections. Dr Hilary Thurston, the HPA’s lead for gastro-intestinal infections in Cheshire and Merseyside, said cases of cryptosporidiosis, e-coli and other stomach bugs and infections increase in spring and are often linked to farm visits and handling animals like lambs. Visitors must always wash hands carefully after touching animals and other farm objects, especially before eating or drinking, and clean their wellies and pushchairs afterwards.

THE Stroke Association is calling all thrillseekers to skydive this summer from Whitchurch Airfield. The event is a 10,000ft freefall tandem skydive, which means skydivers will be attached to a professional instructor. No experience is necessary as all training is given by professional instructors on the day. Registration is £70 and there is a minimum £325 fundraising amount to be raised. Participants will also get a skydive certificate. To register contact Laura Thwaite at laura.thwaite@stroke.org.uk or call 0161 742 7470 for a free information pack.

TWO Wrexham firms are in line to be crowned Small Business of the Year and Start Up of the Year in the Nectar Business Small Business Awards 2009. Vertupak, a small company of six based in Redwither Business Park is flying the green flag for Wales. The firm has developed a compostable packaging solution for the food and non-food sectors. The packaging will fully decompose in 12 weeks and is manufactured from a byproduct of the sugar cane refining process. And Dapol Ltd, based in Chirk, is one of the last manufacturers of fully functional model trains and unofficially recognised as the last toy maker in the UK. The company was founded in 1984 but in 1995 suffered a devastating fire resulting in the loss of over £2m of tools and products. In 1996 a new external manager was appointed, George Smith who is now the CEO. By 2001 the company had made a dramatic U-turn and now distributes products all over the world.

Chance to see Basin proposals THE public are invited to view draft plans to extend and rename a conservation area near Wrexham. It follows a review of the Trevor Basin Conservation Area by Wrexham Country Borough Council. The proposals include: ■ The extension of the existing conservation area southward to include Froncysyllte Basin as far as the lift bridge over the canal near to Fron House. ■ Renaming the conservation area the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct Conservation Area. ■ The introduction of an Article 4(2) Direction to ensure minor development to existing dwelling houses is controlled and conserves or enhances the area. The revised Conservation Area Character Assessment and Management Plan document is divided into two parts. A character assessment provides historical background and defines the qualities that make up the special character and appearance of the Conservation Area.

Campaign to draw in tourists is taking effect A MAJOR tourism campaign is showing good early signs, with a big rise in people requesting North Wales Borderlands visitor brochures.

Latest figures show national tourism body Visit Wales has received 11,200 requests for the official guide so far this year.

The publication provides a flavour of what people can see and do when they visit Wrexham, Flintshire and Denbighshire, and is part of a wider campaign to promote the three counties as a tourist destination. The figures add up to 13,800 brochures in total – a 150% increase on the same period last year.

This year’s brochure is a smaller A5 publication, instead of the traditional 56-page A4 brochure. This has freed-up money for a new website and more online marketing, radio advertising and public relations work to raise the profile of the borderlands as a short-break destination. Darryl Shaw, owner of Rossett Hall

Hotel near Wrexham, said: “It’s early days, but hopefully this increased early interest in the borderlands will translate into more visitors in 2009 and provide a welcome boost to the local economy.” The brochure is available at tourist information centres and other key tourist information points.

Ladies walk hits milestone

Cash for more public toilets Sorrento WREXHAM County Borough Council has announced it is joining a scheme launched by the Welsh Assembly Government to increase the number of toilets open to the public. Under the scheme businesses are being offered a grant of up to £500 to make their toilet facilities available to the general public. Certain criteria, such as opening hours, cleanliness and safety standards, accessibility for disabled people and provision for both sexes, will need to be adhered to and these will be assessed by the council’s Environment Department. Once approved, the participating business will receive a sign welcoming people to use their toilet facilities. Mike Bone, director of the British Toilet Association, said: “The majority of closures of public toilets in the last 20 years has been due to the discretionary nature of the service, coupled with the pressure on local authority finances. “This initiative provides all Welsh local authorities with the opportunity to review their public facilities strategy whilst increasing the provision of toilet facilities available to the public.”

HUGHEStheVIEWS Grand National a great British institution

TELEVISION pictures of police officers lashing out apparently assaulting protesters at the G20 demonstrations made grim viewing. And despite the president of the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) defending police tactics claiming that in other countries we would have seen CS gas

and water canons in use, questions need to be asked. The death of newspaper seller Ian Tomlinson attracted massive media interest particularly after video footage was aired which shows Mr Tomlinson being pushed over by an officer and apparently being struck with a baton. And the fact a second post-mortem concluded that the cause of Mr Tomlinson’s death was internal bleeding is worrying, particularly as that second examination took place almost a week after the first gave the cause of death as heart failure. What is now important is that the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) is allowed to fully invest-

igate the circumstances surrounding the death. And no-one should draw any conclusions until after that investigation is over. In the meantime however, new rules need to be introduced quickly. It’s vital, for instance, we are able to identify officers and to that end their identification numbers should be visible at all times. Secondly, officers should be dressed appropriately and that doesn’t include covering all but their eyes with balaclavas. Officers have a difficult job at demonstrations where there is the potential for public disorder. But they should never forget they are public servants, not masters.

cel in this sport is far from cruel. Yes, many ex-racehorses do end up in the slaughterhouse, but would Judi Hewitt want to see cattle and sheep farming banned for this reason? Racehorses are loved by their connections and the public who watch them. Occasionally there are accidents on the track and sadly horses do lose their lives. This upsets all those concerned. However, you would not ban

Who wouldn’t take advantage of expenses? TWO points on Hughes the Views’ perceptive comments on MPs’ expenses. First, it is not surprising, when Gordon Brown, our Prime Minister, claims £17,000 for his ‘second home’ although living at our expense in 10 Downing Street, that every MP, no matter how diligent and hard-working, does not make a similar claim. Secondly, how many of us, given a similar opportunity, would not do exactly the same?

I confess that, all my working life, I have sought to benefit from the ‘expenses racket’. This dates back 50 years to when, as a trainee accountant, I was sent out to work in clients’ offices. In those days, I was entitled to claim 10 shillings (50p) a day for my lunch allowance. In practice, I got a perfectly adequate lunch for three shillings (15p) but I still claimed the full 10 shillings.

TOUGH BREED: Racehorses are not soft, cuddly animals, says our reader.

VIEW FROM

SLIDING DOORS

BEDROOMS

I WOULD like to take issue with some of the comments made by Judi Hewitt about the Grand National (Chronicle, April 9). Firstly, describing the Grand National as a race for the ‘more obscene voyeurs in society’ is deeply offensive to the millions of decent people who watch the race. I do not think Judi Hewitt really understands how the natural world works. Racehorses are not soft cuddly animals, they are very tough. A lot tougher than humans. You simply cannot force a racehorse to run to the best of its ability against its will. Horses which do not want to run can simply refuse at the start or at a fence. If you watch enough horse racing, you would see this is far from uncommon. Those who do jump over the National fences do so out of enjoyment. These horses are trained with care to get the most out of their physical abilities. Without horse racing, they would not have been born. To give life to racehorses and give them the opportunity to ex-

The ‘profit’ of 35p which I made was a useful daily addition to my salary of £3 per week. The vituperative letter from Mr Evans attacking Mr Miller struck me as the blinkered and foolish reply of a wounded animal. I consider Mr Evans to be the victim of confidence tricksters but I forbear to make further comment until after the Budget. A R FONTES via email motorists as well as helping to make the UK a world leader in low carbon transport. Technology that seems impossible today will be improved and enhanced for future generations. The auto sector in the UK has transformed itself into a world-class industry, with superb design and engineering skills, very high productivity, product reliability that rivals the best in the world, and flexible, constructive labour relations. We want the British motor industry to be a leader in developing and manufacturing exciting, low carbon vehicles for the future. This Government is determined not to cut its way out of recession as some suggest. We are determined to invest in Britain’s future – taking a time of economic downturn to invest in core industries and developments.

A lotta car at budget prices vsehxiwx with

navigation, rear back up camera, and uconnect phone and rear seat video at £1,990. All Dodge models are covered by a comprehensive warranty scheme, which provides a three-year/60,000 mile mechanical warranty, seven-year anti-corrosion warranty and three-year European roadside assistance. The Journey is available with a Getrag dual-clutch transaxle. This transaxle is available with the 2.0-litre turbo diesel engine on SXT and R/T models. It delivers a fuel economy improvement of up to six percent compared to a conventional four-speed automatic transaxle.

Ian Johnson

AMERICAN vehicles have established a reputation in Britain for providing a lot of car at budget prices and one of the latest on the scene is the Dodge Journey, a seven-seater that is aimed directly at the family who want to arrive in style.

With its massive Dodge cruciform radiator grille crowned with a macho ram's head badge, acres of room inside plus a lot of comfort, the Journey looks much more expensive than it really is. My test car, the top of the range 2.0 R/T diesel automatic would set you back £22,511, but the lead in model, the 2.4 SE petrol manual costs just £16,639 – £1,000 cheaper than a Vauxhall Astra CDTa SXi a/c. This is one of the new generation American cars, which is compact by US standards but large by ours. Brashness is thrown out of the window and in is comfort, driving enjoyment and surprising punch for a 2.0 litre diesel powering such a big car. And economy is a revelation because unlike US gas guzzlers of the past, the Journey diesel has a combined mpg figure of 40.4mpg. The bodystyle is five-door with a large, rear hatch with access to the third row of seats being by a one-touch operation

which folds up the outer middle row seats to enable ease of entry and exit. When the middle seat in the rear row is not being used, it can be transformed into a generously-sized armrest – just one of the friendly features of this quiet American. The Journey may look a little like a 4x4 but it is front-wheel drive and there is 183bhp on tap. In addition to the tilt-and-slide flexible seating system, family-friendly ideas include spacious under-floor storage bins and under-seat storage areas; rear doors that open to 90-degrees for easy access when installing child seats; a rear ‘conversation mirror’ and climate control that operates in

WHEN I had to take my son 200 miles to pick up a new car, I was not looking forward to it one little bit because all I had to go in was Toyota's tiny iQ.

But much to my amazement, the excellent little motorised roller skate took the whole trip in its stride, even keeping up on the motorway without too much trouble and annoying any number of Mercedes and BMW drivers. It has a one-litre three cylinder engine which is smooth and surprisingly refined, with a five-speed gearbox and light clutch. It's built for the city of course, so at just three metres long and with a very tight turning circle, parking and turning are a breeze. Yet it will happily seat three adults – or four, if the driver is not tall. They will have to have their luggage or shopping on their laps because with all seats in place, there is no boot at all. Road holding is good and handling safe and sure, and the ride was quite comfortable even over that long haul down south. Because it's so light, acceleration is reasonable and the engine's free revving nature helps tremendously. Internally, It has all the kit most of us would want including aircon and a stereo with ipod connection. Sat nav is an extra, but alloys come as standard. If only they could make such tiny cars prettier. Ah well, I suppose you can't have everything when it's just as safe as the best.

Toyota iQ can handle long-haul with ease JEWX JEGXW Toyota iQ:

AFTER the outstanding success of Disney On Ice presents Disney/Pixar’s Finding Nemo last year, Disney On Ice presents Princess Wishes skates into the Echo Arena, Liverpool, in November. Through artistic skating and graceful acrobatics, the show re-creates the defining moments when seven Disney princesses’ wishes are fulfilled. With Tinker Bell as their guide, guests will see the inspiring stories of

Ariel, Belle, Cinderella, Mulan, Jasmine, Sleeping Beauty and Snow White and witness their wishes being granted. Producer Kenneth Feld: “Before dreaming up this edition of Disney On Ice we reflected on what makes Disney’s princesses so special. “It didn’t take long to realise that every princess had one thing in common: each embarked on an adventure to find their heart’s fondest wish and,

through believing, they come true. “We wanted to share that inspirational message with our audiences by celebrating the stories of these enchanting characters.” Featuring hits such as Under the Sea and If You Can Dream, the show runs from November 25-29. ■ Tickets are on sale, priced from £11.50-£33.50 and subject to a booking fee.

Rising club stars shine at big Midlands event

SCOTTISH SUCCESS: Wrexham Fencing Club’s Ben Roberts.

WREXHAM Fencing Club proved once again why it is home to some of the top young talent in Wales with a series of impressive displays at the Birmingham International Fencing Tournament. The Midlands event is one of the biggest on the British fencing calendar, attracting more than 700 fencers from across Europe and as far afield as the USA and Australia. But the Wrexham contingent did not look out of place on the big stage. Leading their charge was Lydia Johnson and Carolyn Benson. The duo finished in the top 16 of the women’s foil while the younger Stephanie Collister was in the top 64. There were top-128 places for rookie David Charles-Hendy, in the men’s foil, and Andrew Scott, in the men’s sabre. Daniel Lumb fared better than Scott, finishing in the top 64, as did Sean Flanaghan and Ben Hughes in the men’s epee. Four of the club’s veterans will represent their country this weekend. Mike Norfolk, Mark Robertson, Rose Gregory and Jamie Morris are in the squad for the Veteran Four Nations in Belfast,

Fencing hoping to impress selectors ahead of the Veterans Commonwealth Championships and the Veterans Winton Cup. Another of the club’s Wales internationals, Ben Roberts, was one of the stars of the show at the Glasgow Open. The 17-year-old powered to a superb fifth-placed finish and he could count himself desperately unlucky not to better that. Wrexham teams dominated at an inaugural competition held at Darland High School, organised expertly by Sarah Dolan and Adele Thackeray to get fencing clubs across North Wales competing against each other in a team format. Roberts, Hughes and Lumb were the winners, Morris, Simon Hedges and Dennis Callahan were second and Cassie Eades, Gregory and Scott fourth. ■ See www.wrexhamfencingclub.co.uk for more information about Wrexham Fencing Club.

Shot-shy Dragons fail to fire yet again Kettering Town 1 Wrexham 0

THE misery continued for the Dragons on Saturday as they slumped to a third Blue Square Premier defeat in succession without scoring.

While boss Dean Saunders can point to the season-ending injury to Marc Williams as one reason why Wrexham cannot buy a goal, that cannot excuse their display against a Kettering side whose own hopes of a play-off place are also over. Even though Saunders said on the eve of the trip to Rockingham Road that he was planning a summer overhaul of his top-heavy squad, too many players failed to take their chance to persuade him that they are worthy of a place in his plans. One notable exception was 18-year-old goalkeeper Chris Maxwell, who prevented the Poppies from adding to Ryan Charles’ third-minute winner. “It was shocking,” admitted Saunders, who, mainly because of injury and suspension, once again rotated his team, making five changes to the one that started against Altrincham. “In recent games we have not had the rub of the green with chances missed and late goals conceded. But

Saturday’s final game of the season at home to newly-crowned champions Rhyl (2.30pm) with the pressure off. It was the hosts who opened the scoring, though, in the third minute through Chris Melia. And that was the way it stayed until 16 minutes from time when Kevin Holgsrove struck with a super solo effort. A point would still have been

RUGBY UNION: Wrexham’s North Wales League Division Two game on Saturday was switched to their Bryn Estyn Road home at the last minute because of a boiler problem at scheduled opponents Rhyl – but it made little difference. Despite making a bright start, with five youth team players adding much needed pace to their attack, off-form Wrexham crashed to a 40-22 defeat. Outside-half Roger Chadwick, who added a touch of class behind the scrum on his return from holiday, created the opening try of the match when his chip over the top allowed hooker Joss Stott to score. Rhyl hit back, however, to storm into a seven-point advantage before Chadwick, who was linking well with scrum-half Kieran Morris, reduced the deficit with a drop goal. The visitors were lucky to lead at the break but they improved soon after the restart, adding their second converted try of the afternoon. But back came the hosts, for whom No 8 Mike Jones and prop Ian Sanger played well, as Chadwick converted his own touchdown. Chadwick also added the extras after flanker Wayne Roberts crossed the whitewash, but Rhyl had restored their superiority by then and they ran away with it in the final quarter. Wrexham travel to Bethesda on Saturday (2.30pm) expecting no mercy from the side that put champions-elect Bro Ffestiniog to the sword on Saturday. Chadwick is unavailable through work commitments but flanker Kerry Powell, who made a welcome comeback against Rhyl, will be a key inclusion in the back-row. Wrexham 2nds lost a thrilling Division Four clash at Llangollen on Saturday 30-19. Trailing by 17 points, Wrexham powered in front through tries from wingers David McHugh and Llion Morris and No 8 Keir Harding, with outside-half Carl Pugh converting two, only for their neighbours to recover to win. Scrum-half Gavin Brace and Dave Thomas, who played at fullback before being pressed into action in the second-row, impressed for Wrexham.

ATHLETICS: Wrexham Athletic Club’s Peter Norman was crowned the M70 champion at the National Duathlon Championships in Olney. Norman claimed his age class crown after posting 2.39.41hours, a combined time that included a 52.26mins 10k run, a 75.59 40k bike ride and a 29.41 5k dash! Mike Robbins led Wrexham’s charge at the Air 10k in Crewe. He was the second-fastest M45 in 12th (34.51), while Chris Evans was 66th (39.38), Lisa Morley the fastest F35 in 99th (42.07) and Ray Billington the third-fastest M70 in 289th (60.57). Morley also won her age class at the Chester Spring Five Mile in 106th (33.13). Adrian Bryan came 55th (30.41), Geoff Richards 93rd (32.42) and Phil Walker 121st (33.40). Tim Bent past the post in 131st (3.29.54hours) in the Blackpool Marathon. Neve Evans won the Under 11s girls 75m (11.3secs) at the Trafford Open as well as finishing second in the 150m (24.00) and fourth in the long jump (2.97m). Neil Edwards tasted senior men’s 110m hurdles and javelin (42.00m) success at the Warrington Open. He was also second in the shot (10.30). James Roberts won the U17s men’s 800m (2.08.0mins) and 1,500m (4.35.4) while there was gold-medal glory for David Blower in the U15s boys 800m (2.13.4). He was also third in the 1,500m (4.56.4). Ffion Roberts came second in the U9s girls 600m (2.42.1) and Hannah Browning fourth in the U15s girls long jump with a personal best (4.22m) and fourth in the high jump (1.35).

Football

that wasn’t the case here, we just didn’t do enough.” With confidence low after a run of just three goals and five points from their previous eight games, the last thing the Dragons needed to do was concede early. But that was exactly what they did as on-loan Luton Town striker Charles held off Ashley Westwood and fired in. Maxwell then made the first of a number of good stops as he kept out Chris Beardsley’s header from Nick Eaden’s free kick. Jefferson Louis wasted a good opportunity to equalise before substitute Tom Kearney, in his first appearance since December, shot narrowly wide. But that was as close as they came despite spells of concerted second-half pressure. ■ There was some good news for Wrexham on Saturday as their rising stars won their last Puma Youth Alliance North West Conference game of the season at home to Accrington Stanley 3-0. Goals from Mark Head, Jordan Kane and Matty Hurdman mean the Dragons will finish in top spot if second-placed Burnley fail to win three of their final four matches.

HALF-CHANCE: Ryan Flynn gets a shot in on goal for the Dragons at Ebbsfleet on Tuesday night.

REDS REMAIN IN DROUGHT Football

Ebbsfleet United 1 Wrexham 0

THE Dragons succumbed to a fourth straight 1-0 Blue Square Premier defeat on Tuesday night to extend their goal drought to beyond 450 minutes of football in another frustrating display.

Dean Saunders’ side at least created more half-chances than they did in Saturday’s limp loss at Kettering Town, but for the most part they were once again let down by a lack of quality and composure in the final third of the field. Michael Proctor, a half-time replacement for Obi Anoruo, had the clearest opportunity to break the deadlock for Wrexham when he superbly controlled Sam Williamson’s firmly struck pass. The substitute was quickly closed down, however, by Lance Cronin who spread himself well to save. And Proctor’s profligacy was punished seconds later when Ebbsfleet, who won Feb-

And what a winner it was too as Mark Ricketts let fly from 25 yards to beat Chris Maxwell with a shot that ricocheted into the net off the underside of the bar. The impressive Darran Kempson, one of six changes to the side that went down to Kettering, nearly equalised

four minutes later when Cronin clawed away his powerful header, but Fleet held out comfortably thereafter to leave Dragons boss Saunders to reflect on another game without a goal or a point. He said: “I’ve just said to the players that this is the lowest level you will get paid full-time to play football and you’ve got to produce.

“The players have taken one punch after another so I can understand when the goal went in why they were thinking ‘here we go again’, because I was thinking that too. “It’s incredible how it’s going for us and I’m going to have to do something about it in the summer because I can’t keep going on like this.” Wrexham, who can finish no higher than 10th, complete their campaign on Sunday at home to relegationthreatened Weymouth (4pm), who need to win at home to York City tomorrow night and then replicate that result at the Racecourse to stand any chance of staying up. Saunders, having already had an at-length meeting with directors Paul Retout and Ian Roberts, will soon sit down with owner Geoff Moss to discuss his budget for next season. The £150,000 Football League parachute payment, awarded to clubs in their first season following relegation from League Two, will not be available to the Dragons. Saunders also wants the club to operate a reserve team in 2009-10.
