- Celebrating 20 Years of excellent service to our customers

James started his career in the RAF, where he trained as a motor mechanic. On leaving the RAF, he rented his first garage on Station Road in Poulton in 1993. He steadily built up his business and then expanded into larger premises, when he moved to Fleetwood in July 2002 by buying Central Garage down Albany Road.

He now has a team of 13 staff including reception, office and workshop / service bays.

They offer a wide range of services including MOT testing (class 4, 7 and motorbikes), fixedprice servicing, diagnostics, computerised wheel alignment & tyres, air-conditioning checks, batteries, etc. They also offer free courtesy cars, and even have a courtesy van for commercial customers!

James has a simple philosophy, “We take good care of each and every customer that comes our way”. That philosophy runs right through the company where there is a strong emphasis on Customer Care. From Lesley and Debbie who are on hand to take your call through to the highly- trained mechanics, the team are there to assist and advise at every step of the way.

All prices at the garage are fully inclusive, with no hidden extras. James’ works on a basic philosophy to be honest and reliable at all times.

James said “We describe all work required in simple terms, no jargon. We always look for the best & most cost-effective solution to meet your repair needs. We never start work until the job has been quoted and approved by the customers”.

Need tyres? They have a large range of tyres in stock to cater for all makes and models & to meet all budgets. James has also invested in a ‘Nitrogen Tyre Inflation’ machine which is guaranteed to increase the efficiency of your vehicle and reduce your fuel consumption.

James said “At Central Garage, we are always

8

looking for products & services that we can offer our customers to help reduce the cost of their motoring”. The Nitrogen Tyre Inflation machine is just one such way in which a little investment from the customer can prove longer-term benefits.

James Jackson’s Central Garage is one of the only local garages where you can still have your car filled up by an attendant! James explained “We recognise that some of our customers find it difficult to fill the car themselves and like our ‘old-fashioned’ approach to fuelling cars. That is why we offer this service”. James said “I’ve been running a garage now for 20 years with many customers that have been with me right from the start. But I like to think that although we’ve expanded, we are large enough to cope but small enough to care”.

James and his family now live in Thornton Cleveleys, where both his wife and himself were brought up. James spends much of his spare time in Fleetwood though, where on a Saturday afternoon you’ll find him at Highbury stadium cheering on Fleetwood Town FC along with the Cody Army. James Jackson’s Central Garage is situated just a stone’s throw from the ground down Albany Road, just off Poulton Road.

James and the team would like to thank all their customers both old and new, and look forward to seeing them soon.

SLEEPLESS NIGHT OVER DEBT? More and more people are turning to short-term ‘pay day’ loan companies in a desperate bid to make ends meet during these difficult times.

COOKING FOR THE FAMILY

Time to chill

Whether you love American-style gooey ice cream desserts smothered in toffee sauce, or a tart, palate-cleansing sorbet, there’s nothing like a cold treat to finish off a summer meal.

Iced strawberry pavlova roll (Serves 6-8) 2tsp cornflour 225g caster sugar 4 egg whites Icing sugar, sifted 350ml shop-bought strawberry sorbet 120ml double cream Icing sugar, fresh strawberries and mint leaves, to decorate Line a Swiss roll tin with greaseproof paper, cut to fit. Sift the cornflour and blend evenly with the caster sugar. Whisk the egg whites until they form peaks but are not dry and crumbly.

Then whisk in the sugar-cornflour mixture gradually until stiff and glossy. Spoon into the prepared tin and flatten out the top. Place in a cold oven and turn it to 150C/Gas Mark 2. Cook for 1 hour until the top is crisp but the meringue still feels springy. Turn out immediately onto a double sheet of greaseproof paper that has been sprinkled with sifted icing sugar and leave to cool.

34

Meanwhile, soften the sorbet and whip the cream.

When the meringue has cooled, carefully and quickly spread it with the sorbet and then with the whipped cream. Roll up, using the paper as a support and wrap lightly in foil. Return to the freezer. Freeze for about 1 hour (or up to several days) before serving, sprinkled with more icing sugar and topped with fresh strawberries and mint.

As Thornton-Cleveleys RUFC look forward to the beginning of a new campaign, they’ve started to brush off the cobwebs after a short summer’s break, ready for pre season.

The Summer Touch Competition, which won an RFU award last year, has begun and it commenced with 80 or so players taking part in a friendly, touch rugby tournament. The tournament is on every Wednesday for a total of 6 weeks and starts at 6.30pm. Anyone is welcome to come down and take part so don’t be shy!

We hope to see you there!

With both teams being promoted last season it’ll be a big push to get everyone up to full fitness to compete in both competitive league structures but the lads are excited and determined to ensure they’re capable of performing at a higher level, in North Lancs 1. The 1st team face the likes of local rivals Garstang and newly acquired arch enemies Ashton-Under-Lyne, who pipped them to the (rugby) post last season and took a deserved North Lancs 2 title.

Paul Galley

‘Diary of a local Councillor’ Paul Galley is a Councillor for Anchorsholme in Blackpool and each month he writes a weekly diary of what he has been up to.

Sunday: As I mentioned in last months diary, I’ve been getting lots of complaints about weeds so spent the morning visiting the hotspots and taking photo’s of all the worst areas. The plan is a simple one: send each photograph along with the location and then get the council to kill and remove the weeds. One of my pet hates are weeds growing alongside gutters, it makes the area look untidy so if you have a problem with weeds on your road in Anchorsholme please don’t hesitate to contact me on 01253 826679. I also had a look to see the new bus shelter installed on Sevenoaks Drive, it’s a great replacement for the old tatty shelter, and I’m really proud of it.

Monday: As today was a Bank Holiday, I gave myself a rare day off and went out for the day. I was happy to see the installation of two new bins on the Anchorsholme Lane tram stop. It’s taken a lot of time to get them but finally they have been installed and thank you to all the residents who helped us push the council to install them.

Although bins are not the most glamorous of things to be happy about, I really do love them and get very excited when I see a full bin as it proves putting it there was the right thing to do. If there is a place in Anchorsholme that you feel would benefit by having a public bin let me know and I’ll try my best to get one for you.

Tuesday: Being a Councillor means your life is full of variety. Tonight I had to stand in for another councillor unable to attend a meeting and was asked to sit on a panel responsible for interviewing a new coroner for Blackpool. It was a very interesting evening, and made me appreciate what a difficult job and a huge amount of responsibility a coroner has. The interview process took four and a half hours, and was very in depth. I felt a huge responsibility, but I really enjoyed the whole process, seeing how recruitment works from the other side (for those that don’t know my day job as well as being a councillor is working in recruitment).

Wednesday: This morning, as usual, I called the bingo at the bingo club. As always a great many laugh’s were had, and I was teased by the club members, who really do look after me and I think the world of them. The club meets every Wednesday morning from 10.20am to 12pm at St Teresa’s Church Hall and everyone is very welcome. Anchorsholme is blessed to have several community clubs, another great one is the Over 50’s club which meets ever Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon at Sevenoaks community Centre. In the afternoon I met up with a several residents who have a number of concerns with the standard of work carried out on pavements as part of Project 30. If you are having any issues with the work done so far, please email me on cllr. paul.galley@blackpool.gov.uk or call me on 01253 826679 I will gladly come and visit you and try my very best to sort out the problem.

Thursday: I mentioned in last month’s diary about the defibrillator & the first aid courses and that I would tell you more in this month’s diary, well I can now confirm that Anchorsholme is going to be the first place in the Fylde to have a public access defibrillator. I had a meeting today about it & can confirm it will be on the outside wall of Anchorsholme Library. The staff and the council have gone out of their way to help us with this project and our plan is to put together an ongoing free first aid course for everyone in Anchorsholme.

Now we have approval we are busy ordering all of the equipment and working with the ambulance service to put the courses together, again I’ll keep you posted when we have everything in place. A key part of this plan is educating everyone about first aid, about the use of a defibrillator etc, so it’s a big step and one I’m really excited about as most of all I know this will give a lot of people including myself confidence when it comes to first aid.

Friday: Today was one of those days were you get more done in a day then you can sometimes achieve in a month. I had a meeting to discuss our funding bid about the new trim trail to go around the Zip Wire in Anchorsholme Park and then discussed some exiting plans for the promenade which I will tell you more about in next month’s diary. If everything goes to plan 2013 will be a very historical year for Anchorsholme.

Many thanks

Paul Galley Councillor for Anchorsholme
