Celebrating 300 year anniversary The Past Kirkleatham Museum was built in 1709 with money left to his great nephew, Cholmley Turner, by Sir William Turner. It opened as a Free School in 1710. The building celebrates its 300th birthday this year, 2010. Over the years the Kirkleatham Hall has had many functions. As well as being a school, it has been a public library and museum and a private residence. Its last owner was Mrs. Esther Bosanquet, daughter of President Grover Cleveland of the United States of America (18851889 and 1893-1897).

To date, she is the only baby to have been born in America’s famous White House. The building was purchased for £16,000 in 1969 by Teesside County Borough Council with the aim of it once again becoming a public Museum.

are holding the everpopular children’s craft activities on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10.00 until 12.00 and 1.00 until 4.00. These activities are all free of charge, as is admission to the Museum, and there’s no need to book – just turn up and have lots of fun. We have exhibitions to appeal to all the family including ‘Memories of Childhood’, which features toys and games from the 1950s to the present day along with an exciting collection of Meccano, Dinky and Hornby models. The new and improved ‘Kirkleatham : The Story of a Village’ exhibition is now open and there’s a beautiful art exhibition by local artist, Janet Williamson on show until 5th September. There’s also a play and picnic area, garden and café for tempting ice creams and refreshments.

The Present. Since it opened to the public in 1981 the scope of the Museum’s exhibitions, activities and display areas has increased considerably and with the installation of a lift in 1999, the whole building is now completely accessible.

With the school summer holidays upon us, we

The Future. An exciting development took place between 2006 and 2008 when an archaeological dig in Loftus unearthed an extremely rare Anglo Saxon bed burial.

Among other things, the treasures found include beautiful pendants made from gold and precious gems; gold bracteates and brightly coloured

beads. All indications are that the hoard belonged to a royal family, with the jewellery probably belonging to an Anglo Saxon princess. The Museum is very fortunate in that we have secured Heritage Lottery Funding to be able to create a new and exciting display area to exhibit these rare and beautiful items, hopefully, from Easter 2011.

This has caused much excitement and we have already had enquiries from all over the world.

Kirkleatham Museum has something for everyone to enjoy. We are open throughout the summer from Tuesday to Sunday and Bank Holidays Mondays from 10.00 until 5.00 and admission and parking are FREE. Why not come along and see for yourself what treasures your local museum holds and what fun you can have so close to home.

Who is funnier – the very young or very old?

The common denominator between the two is most probably an innocence generated by a complete ignorance of what goes on around them. Which of the opposite ends of the age spectrum is funnier is a matter of taste but here are some great examples of how each can make us laugh!

The Very Young

The teacher was explaining to the class how it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small. A little girl reminded her that, according to the bible, Jonah was swallowed by a whale. Slightly Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible. The little girl said, 'In that case when I get to heaven I will ask Jonah'. The teacher asked, 'Ah, but what if Jonah went to hell?' The little girl replied, 'In that case you’ll have to ask him.’

A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work. As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was. The girl replied, 'I'm drawing God.' The teacher paused and said, 'But no one knows what God looks like.' Without missing a beat or looking up from her drawing, the little girl replied, 'They will when I’m finished.'

One day a little girl was watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink and noticed several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head. She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, 'Why are some of your hairs white, Mum?' Her mother replied, 'Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white.' The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said, ‘You must have been horrible - ALL of grandma's hairs are white!

The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture. 'Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.' A small voice at the back of the room rang out, 'and there's the teacher, she's dead.'

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray: 'Take only ONE. God is watching.' Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note, 'Take all you want. God is watching the apples.'

A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and six year olds. After explaining the commandment to 'honour' thy Father and thy Mother, she asked, 'Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?' Without missing a beat one little boy (the oldest of a family) answered, 'Thou shalt not kill.' ......continued on page 8 For information about the Local Answer visit www.local-answer.co.uk

Who is funnier – the very young or very old?

Continued from page 6 with...

the very old .....

Two elderly guests attended the engagement party of a friend’s daughter and were told that she and her fiancé had already been living together for two years.

Grumbling about the decline in moral standards the first old man said ‘all these people sleeping together before they are married is dreadful. I didn’t sleep with my wife before we were married, did you?’ ‘I don’t know,’ replied the other. What was her maiden name?’

Mark Twain had a great attitude to old age. ‘I get my daily paper,’ he said, ‘look in the obituaries and if I’m not there I carry on as normal.’

The best thing about getting old is that you no longer either want or need all those things you couldn’t afford when you were young. Seen it, done it, can’t remember most of it!

You don’t know real embarrassment until your new hip sets off the metal detector at the airport.

Inflation is when you have to pay £15 for the £10 haircut you used to get for £5 when you actually had hair!

Middle age is when you wish you had less grey hair and old age is when you wish you had more of it.

You can certainly live to be a hundred but only if you give up all the things that make you want to live that long in the first place. And let’s be honest, there’s no pleasure worth foregoing just for another three years in the geriatric ward!

One of the advantages of growing old is that you only need four hours sleep. The disadvantage is that you need it four times a day.

Male or Female?

August 2010

Website www.local-answer.co.uk

You might not have known this...but a lot of non-living objects are actually either male or female. Here are some examples....

FREEZER BAGS: They are male, because they hold everything in...but you can see right through them.

PHOTOCOPIERS: These are female, because once turned off...it takes a while to warm them up again. They are an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed...but can also wreak havoc if you push the wrong Buttons.

TYRES: Tyres are male, because they go bald easily and are often over inflated HOT AIR BALLOONS: Also a male object... because to get them to go anywhere..... you have to light a fire under their back sides.

SPONGES: These are female...because they are soft......squeezable and retain water.

TRAINS: Definitely male... because they always use the same old lines for picking up people.

EGG TIMERS: Egg timers are female because...over time...all the weight shifts to the bottom.

HAMMERS: Male... because in the last 5000 years......they’ve hardly changed at all...and are occasionally handy to have around.

THE REMOTE CONTROL: Female. Ha! You probably thought it would be male...but consider this: It easily gives a man pleasure, he’d be lost without it...and while he doesn’t always know which buttons to push...he just keeps trying WEB PAGES: Female...because they’re constantly being looked at and frequently getting hit on.

Sudoku There is really only one rule to Sudoku: Fill in the game board so that the numbers 1 through 9 occur exactly once in each row, column, and 3x3 box. The numbers can appear in any order and diagonals are not considered. Your initial game board will consist of several numbers that are already placed. Those numbers cannot be changed.

Your goal is to fill in the empty squares following the simple rule above.

They’ve all served an ace!

Since the last edition we’ve been able to enjoy a number of exceptional international sporting occasions. Yet even though the British contribution was a little lacklustre in all of them, The World Cup, The Open Golf Championship and Wimbledon kept everybody on the edge of their seats. It was during the Wimbledon Championships that we came across a series of quotations from some of the sport’s top names and as they also appear to be a fairly succinct comment on life itself we thought we’d share them with you....

Tennis is a battle of minds just as much as it is a battle of playing ability. Trying to expose your opponent’s weakness is one of the most vital and fascinating facets of tennis. Sue Barker – former French open champion and now fronting ‘Question of Sport.’

I was always a believer in stamping on my opponent if I got him down - at Wimbledon or anywhere else. I never wanted to give him the chance to get up. Fred Perry – England’s last men’s champion.

Sometimes a defeat can be more beautiful and satisfying than certain victory. The English have a point in insisting that it matters not who won or lost but how they played the game. Arthur Ashe – Wimbledon’s first coloured men’s champion.

Whoever said ‘It’s not the winning or losing that counts’ probably lost! Multiple winner Martina Navratilova Nastase rarely grins and bares it. More commonly he grins, groans, shrugs, slumps, spins around, shakes his head, puffs out his cheeks, rolls on the ground and bears it. Even more common, he does all that and doesn’t bear it.

Australian journalist and presenter Clive James I don’t think my behaviour has particularly improved with age. They just found somebody worse. Jimmy Connors - Pre-McEnroe bad boy.

There’s nothing quite as therapeutic as a nice new dress to make you feel ready for the fray. Clothes do wonders for the ego – especially on the centre court.

Virginia Wade - England’s last female champion.

I have seriously thought about retiring, but that was on a good day. On a bad day I’ve thought about killing myself. Ivan Lendl The great champions don’t hide when they lose; they go out on the practice court and pledge never to let it happen again. John Lloyd - Former British Number One.

Worthless Chatter

I’d like to know what it was about Alan Carr that made TV bosses think he could become a good chat show host.

Perhaps Graham Norton’s comparative success in the genre led them to believe that gay men are capable of coaxing the best bits of gossip out of celebrities but boy, are they wrong this time!

He might come across as quite a nice chap (if you can overcome that horrendous giggle) but he certainly doesn’t bring the best out of his guests. On one of his latest shows he had the benefit of both the excellent John Bishop and the lovely Kylie Minogue but in each case he wasted their potential quite alarmingly. John Bishop is the epitome of the Liverpool comic with a strong accent perfectly complimenting some great Merseyside stories and some hilarious one liners but Chatty Alan failed to bring any of that out. Not for the first time I found the conversation boring and stilted.

Not that Bishop was given much time because he had barely warmed the

Website www.local-answer.co.uk

seat before he was out the door so that Kylie could sing her latest release.

There was then an embarrassing interlude while she changed into a different outfit behind a screen with clothes being thrown all over like something out of a ‘Carry-on’ film. She was given a drink (he lashes it out to everyone, but this was supposed to be Scotch and Kylie eventually feigned drunkenness – again embarrassing.)

Finally she sang another song from her latest album so at least she got the publicity she wanted but at what price? She was made to look nothing like a pop princess!

Overall, Alan Carr: Chatty Man is by far the worst chat show on TV at the moment. Carr just isn't a good interviewer, and his approach of trying to charm his guests with his camp personality and lighthearted natter doesn't seem to work. I suppose there must be some potential in him somewhere because he’s been on a couple of comedy quiz shows (Eight out of Ten Cats was one of them) and was quite funny, but in this show I have yet to find it.

Local writer publishes first book.

BABY LOVE , written by local woman Helen Gregory, is a story of a tormented family in the mid-sixties.

What a decade that was - the 60's!

A contradiction of values! There were protests against the bomb and people wore flowers in their hair, took LSD and believed in free love.

Yet they couldn't accommodate their illegitimate babies or their battered women.

and sisters? What happens when the sordid details of both her mother's and father's affairs come to light?

Will she be just another statistic lost in the mire of having to uphold the family reputation at any cost?

Ellen, a fourteen year old girl is one casualty, forced to part with her son.

How does Ellen cope with the trauma of being forced to relinquish all claims of motherhood almost immediately?

What part does she and her baby have in the sordid plot to keep the family together and take care of her brother

Thank God that this generation will never experience the pain and humiliation of living only 40 years ago!!

Sun Dried Tomato and Walnut Pasta

One of the most difficult things about the modern working environment is the reduction in time allocated to what used to be known as ‘lunch hour.’ Very few people these days actually take the time to enjoy a meal or have a pleasant relaxation during the day, succumbing instead to the increasing stresses of the modern working environment. That invariably means grabbing a pie or a pasty on the run because of a conceived lack of time. Instead, why not try to combat the problem with this easy to prepare snack that can be popped into a plastic container and eaten either warm or at room temperature. It really is delicious and will simultaneously alleviate your hunger pangs and do you good!

Ingredients: 60g pasta : 3 sun-dried tomatoes : 1 tablespoon of low fat fromage frais (or Yoghurt if you prefer) : 1 tablespoon of grated parmesan : a pinch of dried Basil : a pinch of oregano : a handful of watercress or rocket : 15g walnuts.

Method: Cook the pasta following package directions. Meanwhile, put the sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl and just cover with boiling water. Set aside to rehydrate for 10 minutes then chop into 1cm pieces.

Once the pasta is cooked, drain and stir in the rest of the ingredients. Enjoy at your leisure!

Coffee break humour

Early in his career Paul Daniels was performing at Grangetown Club and was a little disappointed to note that an old man sitting at one of the front tables appeared to be totally unimpressed at any of his magic tricks. He approached the man and said ‘Haven’t you enjoyed my act?’ ‘Oh aye,’ said the man, ‘it were all right, but I’ve seen it all before. Sawing the barmaid in half and producing pigeons out of handkerchiefs are all very well, but we both know it’s all a fiddle.’

‘In that case,’’ said Paul, determined to impress the old man, ‘would it surprise you if I pulled a rabbit out of your inside pocket?’ ‘It certainly would,’ said the old man.’ ‘I’ve got a ferret in there.’

So.... here we go again After the disappointment of the World Cup we can now concentrate on the infinitely more important business of winning the Championship and getting back to football’s version of Eldorado.

(That’s the City of Gold – not the short lived and disastrous soap opera!)

Having signed almost a full team of Scottish players Gordon Strachan has attempted to justify his policy by claiming it is similar to that of Raphael Benitez whose experience in Spain led him to sign a number of Spanish players. Let’s hope that the reason most of them (Torres apart) were pretty sub-

in superbly well in the later stages of last season and Willo Flood showed huge promise before his premature end through injury. Stephen McManus proved he will be an excellent partner to David Wheater now he’s signed full time so there should be strength in the backbone of the team that will make it difficult for teams to score too many against us. In the middle there is also a fair bit of new experience with the signings of Bailey and Thompson.

It’s at the other end, however, that we have to overcome last season’s real deficiencies and hopefully the excellent

standard was that they found the adjustment to the more physical British game a bridge too far – not, one hopes, a problem for the men from north of the border.

So, here we go again.

There’s always plenty of excitement at the start of a new season – piece of business that saw especially with so many Kris Boyd join us from new signings so we can Rangers will ensure a only hope Strachan has it few more goals this time right and that this season round. Scott McDonald will more than make up showed some good for the previous two. touches and scored a few before the end but he was Can’t wait! never really fit so let’s hope we get the best from

It’s certainly true that Barry Robson fitted

him this time around.

Like Boyd he certainly has an impressive goal scoring record so for the first time in ages we will start the season with real goal potential.

After the first Irish friendly against Athlone it was reported that Strachan was still looking for a wide player and after being spoilt over the last few seasons with Downing and Johnson doing the business on the left, Boro fans are definitely looking for a decent replacement.

In that respect we have yet to see how good Andy Halliday will be but indications are that he has what it takes.
