Restaurant Review With Camerons at Fox Lane Sports & Social Club WE haven’t exactly been trying, but we think we might just have stumbled upon THE best Sunday lunch in Lancashire (or beyond) right here in Leyland – and the rest of the food on the menu is equally awesome! Earlier this year, award-winning restaurateurs Chris and Sue Cameron took over the catering responsibilities at Fox Lane Sports and Social Club and the results are truly inspiring. Traditional Sunday lunch? True, all the regular ingredients you might expect are present, but in Chris’ hands they are transported to a different level. This is fine dining at your local Sports Club and we are delighted with it! Camerons serve lunches every Friday (12 noon -2pm, Saturday and Sunday (12 noon 4pm) and Sunday Breakfast - you got to see it to believe it - from 9.30 –11am. Ladies’ cricket in the sunshine provided the perfect backdrop for our visit to Leyland’s newest dining experience. With Chris busy creating in the kitchen, Sue Cameron takes charge of front of house. The restaurant was buzzing nicely, deservedly so, as we received the warmest of welcomes, from Sue and Rosanna it’s a real team effort! And so, in the unlikely surroundings of your local Sports and Social Club, began one of the best dining experiences we have ever had in our town - and there’s been quite a few! Talk about Starters for Ten, ours were worth at least eleven! I had four of the fattest, freshest pan-seared scallops known to man (pictured). These beauties were partnered
with Parma Ham, Pea Puree, Pea Shoots and decorated with edible flowers. It looked too good to eat - but that feeling didn’t last! Across the table, another eyecatching presentation. The menu term ‘Halloumi Caesar Salad’ does not do it justice. It tasted incredible, I am assured, and once again, the presentation was delightful. A wonderful start to an exquisite meal. With six tempting mains choices, it could have been a challenge but not for me - it was Sunday lunchtime, after all! After the most generous of starters, Ruth was happy with a Seafood Platter which delivered exactly that and proved to be more than enough (almost!) for her main meal.
Seafood Platter
Succulent prawns, scallops, sea bass and, tuna were, once again, perfectly cooked, crafted and precisely presented. The ladies’ cricket outside was a bit of a giveaway, but the meal could have been straight out of any high-class Mediterranean Riviera restaurant. It was an explosion of wonderful tastes of the sea, she claimed. Dressed with lemon To advertise call 01772 432963 or email keith@leylandleader.com
‘…...THE best traditional Sunday roast...’ and the lightest of salad garnishes, what more could you want? A glass of Pinot Grigio, perhaps. The dry Italian white on offer at Fox Lane proved an ideal accompaniment to the seafood - and for a light lunchtime drink it also went well with my traditional Sunday roast (pictured). So it arrived, my vote for THE best traditional Sunday dinner around. A crisp, golden Yorkshire pudding sat proudly above several thick slices of pink, succulent roast beef. It was freshly cooked, as ordered, and was a delight to demolish. Sprouting broccoli lent added crunch (and healthy vitamins), along with roasted carrot, creamed potatoes and everyone’s favourites, golden, crispy roast potatoes. It was another generous portion, terrific value, but traditional home-cooked cuisine of the highest order, courtesy of a chef who clearly knows his craft. You really need to try it, it was special! Don’t just take my word, get down to Camerons at the earliest opportunity booking is advised, as word is getting round. The vegetarian ‘main’ option at the time of our visit was Roasted Pepper stuffed with Moroccan Couscous, which I’m confident would be likewise, beautifully created and equally delicious. Suitably satisfied, the award-winning

Camerons, had been everything we’d hoped for and more. However, after a well-earned break, we approached the sweet choices with heightened anticipation. Cherry and Almond Frangipane with ice cream (pictured) across the table and for me, I completed the traditional Sunday lunch with home-made warm Apple Pie and the smoothest of custard. Trust me, both desserts looked and tasted as good as they promised. On the next table, a party were enjoying Afternoon Tea, with accompanying whoops of delight. If that’s your scene, then head for Camerons, the home-made Afternoon Teas, just like everything else, are on a higher level. Sue Cameron says: “We also cater for the functions here at Fox Lane. Book through the club and we will take on the catering enquiries from there. There are sample menus for customers to choose from and we encourage a face to face meeting to discuss needs as the menus are not set in stone. “We would happily prepare a bespoke menu according to their requirements. We also welcome any enquiries regarding outside catering.” Camerons is a fantastic and welcome addition to the dining options in Leyland. It’s not a ‘night out’ venue (yet!), but we congratulate Chris, Sue and team and highly recommend their new venture in our town. Go and see them - very soon!

Leyland Jailbreak raises £35,000 for Children’s Hospice
people I was in with were a really good bunch and very passionate about Derian House. I’m a family man with four kids, who have always been fit and healthy. Sometimes you take the basics for granted, so for me it was about being grateful for what I’ve got and giving something back.” The resourceful “criminals” not only raised their bail money but smashed the challenge raising a total of £35,138.46 so far, with donations still coming in. The 16 inmates were “arrested” one morning at Miriam Payne, Events and Promotions Manager at Derian House Children’s Hospice, Leyland Police Station, before being thrown said: “Bail Me Out has been a fantastic success, behind bars at La Corte Italian restaurant, the far beyond our wildest dreams. We like to put former Leyland police station. the fun in fundraising at Derian House, that’s Locked in the Victorian cells, their only hope what this event was all about, as well as raising of release was to raise £999 bail money - with only their phones and laptops to help them out. much needed funds. We are so grateful to everyone who took part – from the wonderful The dastardly crimes committed included participants who really embraced the theme, to impersonating Bradley Walsh, uncontrollable Chorley and Leyland police, Lancashire Police snacking, and excessive fabulousness. Cadets, Judge Batman and the team at La Corte who looked after us so well. Everybody should be very proud of what they have achieved. “The money our ‘prisoners’ raised will make a huge difference to the children, young people and families who are cared for by Derian House. £35,000 will pay for the running costs of Derian House Children’s Hospice for two whole days, as well as giving ten families a week’s holiday at our ‘Derian on Holiday’ lodges, three children the chance to go on a residential activity holiday and pay to sponsor a Derian nurse for 10 days. Not bad for a day’s Derian House Patron and cabaret queen Kiki DeVille, who took part in the event, said: “As a work!” Derian House Children’s Hospice cares for parent of Derian House, I know exactly what Derian does for families. Not just children who more than 400 children with life-limiting and life-threatening illnesses from across the North are with us, but for bereaved families too. It’s West. It costs more than £4million to run serincredibly important that we spread the word, how it’s an amazingly life-affirming place and vices each year, and yet the charity receives that it needs £4million a year to function. What less than 10 per cent of this from the NHS. For the remainder, it relies on the generosity of we do at Derian is incredibly important.” supporters. Fellow cellmate John Hesketh, Regional Director of NatWest Premier Banking North Region, said: “Bail me Out was brilliant. The BUSINESS leaders from across the North West busted their way out of a Leyland jail, raising more than £35,000 for a children’s hospice. They were joined by celebrity cellmates burlesque queen Kiki DeVille and Extreme Cake Makers’ Rosie Dummer at Bail Me Out - Derian House Children’s Hospice’s most outrageous money-raising challenge of the year.

Rain fails to dampen Leyland Festival spirit!
Despite some heavy rain showers, people turned out in their thousands to enjoy all the fun and entertainment of this year’s Leyland Festival. Thousands of visitors lined the streets of Leyland to see the traditional festival parade spread a carnival atmosphere right through the town. Floats, bands and walking groups organised by local businesses, charities and community groups were inspired by the festival’s ‘musicals’ theme. Their bright decorations, costumes and choreography created a rainbow of colour, entertainment and energy that brought smiles to the faces of onlookers. The vehicle parade was bigger and better this year, with an eclectic mix of old and new. Spectators were treated to an array of rare, unusual and eye-catching vehicles with everything from a Tuk Tuk to the latest Lamborghini and Ferrari supercars. Of course, everyone was delighted to see the return of the iconic Popemobile leading the festival parade with the Mayor and Mayoress of South Ribble on board. Over on Worden Park visitors were treated to a huge selection of entertainment and activities for all the family. There were hundreds of organisations involved, all providing something different for families to enjoy. Kevin Simm’s headline performance topped off an amazing line-up of local talent. This year there were three stages – the main stage, acoustic stage and afternoon tea stage. Each had a completely different vibe for people to enjoy. The ever-popular Paws in the Park dog show was a highlight for many once again, as was the growing festival car show ‘Cars in the Park’. And visitors definitely didn’t go hungry or thirsty with a huge selection of food and drink retailers and producers throughout the park. Organisers were delighted with the day, “We were thrilled to welcome so many
people to this year’s Leyland Festival, especially given the unkind weather. But the rain didn’t dampen the festival spirit one bit!” said Tony Harrison, Leyland Festival Committee Chairman. He continued: “Everywhere you looked there were smiling faces and laughter, people making memories with their families and friends that they will cherish. All the many hours of planning and preparation are worth it when you see the joy Leyland Festival brings to so many people. “There are so many people to thank, my fellow committee members, our sponsors, all the businesses, organisations and individuals who take part on the day, South Ribble Borough Council and, of course, our amazing volunteers. “We are incredibly proud of what we achieve with Leyland Festival. It is a celebration of everything that is good in our local community and an opportunity for us to share that with visitors from near and far. “We love how the festival brings the whole community together and captures and amplifies the fabulous community spirit of Leyland. Long may that continue!” Leyland Festival Committee will be enjoying a few weeks of well-earned rest before attention turns to planning next year’s event. Watch this space!
