Older People’s Forum members wave their bus passes (to order photos ring 353597)

Words and photos by Dave Barry FEARS over cuts to bus services in and around Scarborough are growing.

Buses to Woodlands crematorium, Burniston, Cloughton and Hutton Buscel have been axed and other routes reduced.

A statement on the county council website says full details of the changes won’t be available from bus operators until 6 April, 10 days before they take effect.

However, the news has leaked out via bus drivers.

East Yorkshire Motor Services bus services with the numbers 2, 3, 3A, 5, 6, 12, 13, 14 and 15 will cease.

The company says the routes they cover will be served by new routes with the numbers 8, 8A, 9, 9A, 10 and 11; and that one discontinued route, to and from Cloughton, is serviced by another firm, Arriva.

“We are very concerned as many of our members are in their 80s and 90s and can’t drive any more”, says Audrey Cooke, who chairs Scarborough & District

Older Peoples Forum.

At a forum meeting, “members shared their deep concerns about all the cuts on bus routes in Scarborough coming in to force in April”, says vice-chair Pauline Mewis. “More buses are needed, not fewer”.

Forum members find the prospect of a diminished bus service depressing and cherish their free bus passes.

Most of the 90-100 members who attend monthly meetings at Westborough Methodist Church use their pass, introduced 10 years ago, to get there.

Mrs Mewis says: “18 April is the 10th anniversary of the introduction of the old people’s bus pass.

“The pass has helped so many older people to combat loneliness and isolation. Travel costs are so expensive now that, if pensioners had to pay for travel, their outdoor accessibility would be greatly reduced, so limiting time with family, friends, shopping, church and group activities.

Bernard Donoghue, director of the Association of Leading Visitor Attractions and the mayor of London’s culture ambassador, travelled by train from his office in Somerset House, London, via Birmingham, where he had made a speech.

He said he had enjoyed “listening to local businesses about their issues and about how we grow the UK’s fifth biggest industry and third largest employer”.

Mr Donoghue tweeted afterwards: “Spent a great couple of hours with Kevin Brennan, meeting tourism and cultural businesses in Scarborough, listening to their issues including transport, infrastructure, recruitment and staff retention, tax and business rates”.

Shadow minister in town for tourism meeting SCARBOROUGH hosted a meeting with the shadow tourism minister and the mayor of London’s culture ambassador.

Kevin Brennan MP chaired a discussion at the cricket club with representatives of tourism related businesses from the area.

The event, in conjunction with Visit Yorkshire, was an opportunity to feed ideas to the Labour opposition front bench in parliament as they develop policies ahead of a general election.

The minister for heritage and arts said: “I am doing a series of round-table discussions with the tourism industry around the country and wanted the first to be in Scarborough as it’s one of our top seaside destinations.

“The Brexit referendum has resulted in uncertainty about the future for many tourism businesses, whether it be about staff skill shortages, the exchange rate or visa issues”.

Mr Brennan said: “I was very impressed by everyone’s ideas for the future of tourism in Scarborough. It gave me plenty of food for thought about policies for helping tourism in our seaside towns”.

Mr Brennan and his researcher Haf Davies stayed at the Ambassador Hotel and spent

A recent survey among members showed how valuable the passes are. They offer “freedom to get out of my four walls” and “to enjoy socialising” - “I would be a prisoner in my own home without it”.

The pass is a “a godsend” and a “vital, moneysaving lifeline” which “allows everyday travel instead of two or three times a week”. “It’s a piece of gold which lets me enjoy days out”.

Drug-and-alcohol Police close cannabis service extends and factory in Newby relaunches Words and photo by Dave Barry A DRUG-AND-ALCOHOL service in Scarborough has been relaunched after a refurbishment which took two years.

North Yorkshire Horizons has been extended into the basement of its hub in Castle Road.

The service now has a larger and revamped needle-exchange area, more counselling rooms for one-to-one appointments and a dedicated space for service users, including a lounge and kitchen.

At the relaunch, the new floor was declared open by Cty Cllr Caroline Dickinson, whose responsibilities cover public health, prevention and supported housing.

The relaunch featured Miss Elainey’s Boutique, a social enterprise for local women, selling high-quality second-hand clothing. It provides volunteering opportunities to develop training and employment skills.

North Yorkshire Horizons provides drug

and alcohol treatment and harm reduction services for adults in Scarborough, Whitby and Ryedale.

It arranges access to inpatient detoxification and rehabilitation, psycho-social work, criminal justice interventions, group work, shared care delivery with GP practices, comprehensive packages of aftercare and community services and volunteering activity and opportunities.

An alcohol worker service intercepts alcohol users at the hospital’s A&E department, to address problematic and harmful alcohol consumption and hopefully stop people going back to A&E. North Yorkshire Horizons is a partnership between Disc, which stands for Developing Initiatives for Support in the Community, and CGL, which stands for Change, Grow, Live.

A LOCAL man has been arrested on suspicion of cultivating cannabis in Scarborough.

Police caught him with a watering can, a hose pipe, fans, lights and about 20 cannabis plants.

They had raided a house in Southlands Grove, in the otherwise peaceful and lawabiding suburb of Newby.

The man, 28, was released but is under investigation as police enquiries continue.

The plants and equipment were seized for The Newby cannabis factory forensic examination.

It happened in Stepney Road at around 11am on 19 February.

Police have received a more detailed description of the perpetrator.

He is described as a white male, aged 17-18, with short straight dark brown hair, around

5ft 9in or 5ft 10in, with a chubby build and a local accent.

He had a red rucksack on his back and was wearing a black waist-length jacket, blue jeans and trainers.

FOR the ninth year, the North Riding Brew Pub has been declared Scarborough’s best pub.

Landlady Karen Nielsen is running out of space for all the framed certificates she and husband Stuart have won over the years.

The accolade was bestowed by the local branch of Camra - the Campaign for Real Ale -which covers Scarborough, Filey, Pickering and Malton.

Founded in 1974 by Richard Thompson, the branch introduced the annual awards to recognise real ale, real cider and the traditional British pub.

With over 190,000 members, Camra is the UK’s largest single-issue consumer group.

Other pubs which come out trumps in the local branch awards for 2017 include the Hole in the Wall, the runner-up pub of the year, and the Corporation Club, the club of the year.

The cider pub of the year is the Stumble Inn; the runner-up is Scholars.

The Sun in Pickering and the Old Post Office Tavern in Brompton shared the honours for rural pubs. The Sun was the rural pub of the year and the Tavern was runner-up. The section for rural cider pub was won by the Tavern, with the Sun as runner-up.

Gillian Harper, who chairs the branch, and cider representative Tracey Knorn, visited the pubs to present certificates.

The branch is staging its third annual beer festival at the Old Parcel Office next to the railway station in Scarborough from 11-13 October.

The Tavern, which opened in December 2015, usually has four ales (a stout or a porter, a bitter, an IPA and a pale) and 10 ciders on tap.

It has a huge selection of gins (52) and is holding a gin night on 12 May.

Find out if you’re a safe driver Jail and ban for drink-driver SCARBOROUGH road users are being offered the opportunity to find out if they’re safe drivers through free assessments on 17 April.

People can turn up on the day in their car or motorcycle and be accompanied by a trained observer for half an hour who will asses their driving skills and give them a written report.

Drivers will then be given the opportunity to discuss whether they would like to improve

their road skills with an Advanced Driving Course but there is no obligation.

The event will run from 7pm until dusk at The Street, William St Coach Park, Scarborough, YO12 7PW. IAM (the Institute of Advanced Motorists) is a not for profit road safe charity. for more information visit www.iamroadsmartscarborough.co.uk

Jacob wins a ticket to ride A YOUNG vlogger from Scarborough has become National Rail’s chief adventure officer.

Jacob Allen, 22, was one of almost 1,000 keen travellers who applied for the part-time job.

The self-employed photographer will be paid £10,000 to vlog his way around Britain on six trips using a 16-25 railcard and around other parts of Europe using an Interrail card, with a friend.

He was selected after his 60-second video entry received over 1,500 votes from the

public.

Jacob says: “When I found out that National Rail was looking for someone to explore Britain using a 16-25 railcard, and vlog their experience, I knew I had to apply. I have lots of ideas about how you can travel Britain on a budget that I’d love to be able to share with others in a fun and engaging way”.

Jacob’s film can be found on Youtube by searching for Jacob Lucas. * Vlog is short for video-log.

Four GP practices to merge

by Dave Barry FOUR GP practices in Scarborough are to merge on 9 April.

Belgrave, Falsgrave, Peasholm and Prospect Road surgeries will come together as a new partnership called Central Healthcare.

It will be led by six partners who are all doctors: Faisal Baloch, Deepankar Datt, Ron Diffey, Simona Gheorghiu, Ruth Guest and Omnia Henfi.

Some of the GPs across the four practices have chosen not to become partners of the new business, but will remain as salaried doctors.

The four surgeries will continue to operate from their current premises and patients will still be able to see the doctor they’re used to seeing, if they wish.

A spokesperson said the merger means patients will have greater access to appointments and clinics over a longer day and at weekends, as well as access to more

specialist care in a surgery setting.

“The media is full of news and features about the NHS being in crisis”, the spokesperson said. “It was clear to the GPs and managers of the four practices that the current situation was not sustainable long term due to the ever-mounting pressure being placed on each individual surgery.

“They have realised that to continue working as isolated small practices they would increasingly struggle to provide a high-quality, responsive and safe service for their patients.

Furthermore, the government is now keen to support practices working together as larger organisations to bring about more innovative ways of working”.

In a few months, the surgeries’ telephone numbers will change. There will be a dedicated line for repeat prescriptions, managed by a medication team.

Patients will be able to order medication at weekends and on evenings by leaving a message for the team, or via a new website.

Two of the GP surgeries already share premises: Belgrave and Falsgrave

Peasholm surgery

Prospect Road surgery

A DRUNKEN motorist was jailed for 18 weeks and banned from driving for three years at Scarborough magistrates court.

Michelle Charlesworth, 49, was reported by another driver who saw her driving her Mercedes erratically on the A64.

She had four and a half times the legal limit of alcohol in her breath when the police stopped her.

She was arrested and taken into custody, where she returned an even higher reading of 167 micrograms of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath; the legal limit is 35.

Due to the high reading and the serious nature of the offence, magistrates dealt with Charlesworth harshly.

The three-year driving ban was extended by nine weeks to take her custodial sentence into account. She was ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £115.

Traffic constable Jamie Lord described the level of alcohol Charlesworth had in her system as “completely shocking - how anyone can get behind a wheel with that

amount of alcohol in their system beggars belief”.

He said she “not only consumed a large amount of alcohol that evening and got behind the wheel, she also drove erratically along Michelle Charlesworth one of the busiest A-roads in the region. It is only through sheer luck and the quick thinking of the member of the public who witnessed her driving and alerted us, that a serious collision was avoided.

"I hope the sentence handed to Charlesworth serves as a stark warning to those who think they won't get caught or that they will only face a slap on the wrist and a fine - a prison sentence is a very real possibility, as this case clearly demonstrates”.

COUPLES looking to say ‘I do’ against the stunning coastal backdrop of Scarborough’s south bay will soon have a new venue to choose from.

Scarborough Council has obtained a premises licence to hold civil marriages and partnerships at the town hall.

The grand splendour of the Jacobean-style Victorian building and its sea-view gardens will be showcased at the venue’s first wedding fayre on Thursday 29 March, from

5-8pm.

The town hall has five elegant rooms licensed for civil ceremonies, which can hold up to 60 people.

They can be booked by people wanting to renew their wedding vows or celebrate a naming ceremony in front of family and friends. www.scarboroughtownhallceremonies. co.uk.

Filey man banned from getting drunk in public A FILEY man has been banned from getting drunk in any public place in England and Wales until 2021.

An order issued at Scarborough magistrates court targets James James Thornton Thornton’s drunken and intimidating behaviour.

It requires him to be sober and not have an open container of alcohol in any public place.

A previous similar order, requiring him to address his alcohol issues, had little effect.

Thornton, 34, continued to commit acts that caused harassment, alarm and distress in the town.

PC Phil Charlton of Filey’s neighbourhood policing team, said: “Filey is a wonderful

place to live, work and visit, and people quite rightly expect to be able to go about their daily lives without having to witness drunken, intimidating behaviour.

“Thornton has been given every opportunity to change his behaviour and obtain specialist assistance in relation to any alcohol issues he has.

“However, despite the hard work of the police and many partner agencies, his actions have continued to have a negative impact on the lives of residents and visitors in Filey.

“Breaching a criminal behaviour order is a serious offence for which someone can be arrested and potentially sent to prison.

I hope this order will result in Thornton modifying his behaviour and provide respite to the Filey community”.

Anyone who becomes aware of a breach of a criminal behaviour order should ring the police on 101.

Charity bike ride postponed A 50-mile charity bike ride was postponed because bad weather was forecast.

Digger’s Dash 2, scheduled for 8 March, will now take place on 15 April - weather permitting.

Starting and finishing at the Crown Spa Hotel in Scarborough, it will raise money for Woodlands Academy.

It’s being organised by Henry Digby, aka Digger.

Scarborough & Ryedale Community Cycling,

based at the old prison in Dean Road, was the beneficiary of two earlier rides.

Digger’s Dash 1, along the same route, raised £2,500. A 400-mile ride from Edinburgh to London, called Digger’s Solo, produced another £1,500.

“The money was spent on adapted bikes for children and adults”, says Pete Blood, who works for the charity.

Registration is from 8am.

Charity shop donates Lives can be saved at Cayton Bay all year round £1,000 to RNLI Words and photo by Dave Barry

Words and photo by Dave Barry THE Ourco charity shop has donated £1,000 to Scarborough RNLI’s Andrew McGeown Legacy Fund.

The money will be used to help fund the RNLI’s Swim Safe campaign in August.

The donation followed an appeal on Yorkshire Coast Radio by the fund’s vice-chair, Donna Loveland.

It was heard by Veronica Thorp of Ourco, which made an identical donation a year ago when the Ourco shop opened its current premises in Northway.

The photo shows Veronica with her grandsons, Max and Jacob Cappleman, Donna and Tina Boden, who chairs the fund.

LIFE-SAVING facilities at Cayton Bay are now available all year round, instead of just during the busy summer season.

In an emergency, trained volunteers can access life-saving equipment at the lifeguard unit.

It has been organised by lifeguard supervisor Matt Jones, who says: “The initiative came about a few years ago when we realised that a lot of lifeguards in particular had made various assists - rescues involving casualty care over the off-peak times of year and after work shifts had finished.

“They only had their surfboards and wetsuits

as opposed to the specific kit for rescue we carry on beaches - trauma bag, rescue boards, rescue tubes, wetsuits, fins and defibrillators”.

All the equipment is kept at the lifeguard unit.

It’s only the second unit of its kind in the UK. The other is in Newquay, Cornwall, where a similar initiative was set up after three people drowned the week after the lifeguards had finished.

The local community got together and came up with a plan to install accessible equipment for use by trained persons at any time of year.

Barrowcliff wins £10,000 for community hub Words and photo by Dave Barry GALLOWS Close Centre in Barrowcliff is celebrating after winning £10,000 funding from part of the big lottery to set up a community hub.

The money will be used to upgrade internet facilities and buy laptops, tablets, computer chairs, a printer, etc.

The aim of the project is to help an area of deprivation by reducing isolation, building confidence, providing training opportunities and enhancing residents' employability.

The hub will be a base for people who find it difficult to get into town to the employment services or use the internet for job searches.

It will be launched on 24 April and will run every Tuesday and Friday, from 10am-1pm.

From 9.30am, the cafe will provide breakfasts and light lunches at affordable prices.

Our photo shows Gallows Close Centre development worker Kimmie Avison and assistant development worker Sophea Sheader with representatives of organisations which are involved with the project.

They are Anne-Marie Benson of the Citizens Advice Bureau, which will offer advice in various subjects; Michelle Davison-Ward and Grace Jackson of Jobmatch, which will help with job searches; Laura Young and Kevin Allen of Yorkshire Coast Homes, which will

offer money management and housing advice; Kasha Button of Tyro Training, which will offer training in computer skills, food health and safety, etc; and Stuart Smith of Sanctuary Housing, which will offer benefit and welfare advice.

Kimmie said: “The hub will provide a safe, warm and welcoming place to visit with access to computers, internet and printing facilities, training opportunities, new skills, employment advice, money management, benefit and housing advice. We will also be running an adults’ craft club.

“The aim is to provide a hub in an area of deprivation for people who cannot access computers, internet, advice, etc. It may be that families or vulnerable and isolated people find it difficult to get into town to visit organisations such as YCH, Citizen Advice, Sanctuary Housing, Job Centres, etc * A course at Gallows Close Centre will give students qualifications in health and safety, first aid, employability, personal development and bushcraft skills.

In the bushcraft sessions, they will be shown how to build shelters, light fires, cook outdoors and filter water.

“They all pretend to be Bear Grylls by the end!” says Kimmie.

The course will start on 16 April and run every Monday and Tuesday for 12 weeks.

Man remains missing after six-hour sea search Words and photo by Dave Barry SCARBOROUGH lifeboat spent six hours at sea searching for a ferry passenger who was thought to have fallen overboard.

It was one of six lifeboats involved in a big rescue mission, along with the coastguards’ search-and-rescue helicopter and specialist officers from the Marine Unit.

The ferry departed Amsterdam at 5.30pm on 8 March and arrived in Newcastle at 9.15am the next day.

The passenger’s absence was noticed when he failed to disembark and his luggage was found in a one-person cabin by a cleaner.

The all-weather lifeboats which took part in the search were from Scarborough, Filey, Whitby, Hartlepool, Blyth and Tynemouth.

The casualty wasn’t found and the search was called off.

A Northumbria Police spokesman said: "The passenger, a foreign national in his 60s, was

travelling on board the ferry but did not depart upon arrival in North Shields and could not be found on board.

"Enquiries are ongoing to trace the man, contact his next of kin and establish the circumstances around his disappearance”.

The sea temperature is at its lowest at this time of year – about five degrees.

Gales and blizzards no problem to TV walkers Words photos Dave

and by Barry

BBC Look North’s presenters are made of tough stuff.

Nobody would have been surprised if they Harry looks pensive in Filey had called off their fundraising stunt on one of the wildest weekends of the year, weather-wise.

But Harry Gration, Amy Garcia, Keeley Donovan and Paul Hudson went ahead, pulling and pushing the red sofa they sit on for the programme from Filey RNLI to Scarborough RNLI. En route, they passed through Gristhorpe, Lebberston, Cayton and Osgodby.

It took seven hours and 21 minutes to cover 12 and a half miles - battling through strong gales and blinding blizzards.

A small crowd turned out in a bracing Siberian breeze to see them off at Filey.

Countless people lined the route here and there, cheering the team on and making donations. Passing vehicles blew their horns in support and tossed cash into collecting buckets.

They stopped off at the Stained-Glass Centre in Killerby for lunch in its cafe and at three pubs, the Bull in Gristhorpe, the Star in Cayton and the Barn in Osgodby.

It was bitterly cold. The temperature hovered around zero all day but it felt much colder with windchill.

Occasional blizzards dramatically reduced visibility, especially on the Esplanade, where Harry was nearly blown over by the powerful easterly.

Harry and Paul were barely recognisable, swathed almost completely in warm clothing plus, in Paul’s case, dark sunglasses. Paul left halfway through to attend a private event.

At the end of the leg, the others put their feet up over a cup of tea in the crew-room at Scarborough lifeboathouse, where Martina Moscariello of That's North Yorkshire TV interviewed them.

And then they were straight off to Bradford for the next part of their gruelling eight-day challenge.

It was part of a tour of 50 places in Yorkshire and Derbyshire to mark the programme’s 50th anniversary and raise funds for Sport Relief.

By the time they finished, they had pulled and pushed the sofa for 100 miles over eight days.

TIME TRAVEL

A steam train passes the Mere THE MERE is a large natural lake nestled between Seamer Road and Oliver’s Mount in Scarborough.

In 1766, the Gentleman’s Magazine published a map of what was then called Byard's Lake,

by Thomas Bowen.

At one time, the lake and swamp covered 40 acres and was ranked as one of the finest lakes in Yorkshire.

But the construction of the York and North Midland railway line from York to Scarborough bisected it in 1844.

Due to that and other factors, including drainage and landscaping, the surface area of the lake shrank to about 10 acres by 1897.

An effort to enlarge the lake and improve the

The Mere became a popular public park

Walking on the frozen Mere

April 2018 - Issue 56

The original Mere was twice as big as it is today

The Hispaniola surroundings by planting trees and shrubs was made in 1900. An aquatic gala and firework display took place in the early years of the century.

In 1913, five acres at the southern end were acquired. That summer, a small fleet of rowing boats and canoes was launched by the corporation, for hire by the public. A landing jetty and café were built on the north bank of the Mere.

Anglers were charged sixpence (2½p) a day to catch coarse fish (part of the lake is still fished today, administered by Scarborough Mere Angling Club).

But work on transforming the site into an attractive park, under the stewardship of

borough engineer Harry Smith, ceased at the outbreak of the first world war.

The scheme was completed with floral beds and lawns in 1923, when a section of the lake was railed off for children's paddle boats.

By then, man-made islands had been created and Smith’s far-sighted vision had been fulfilled.

In the 20th century, the Mere was a popular tourist attraction owned by Scarborough Corporation, with rowing boats, a water-ski jump, a café and a putting green.

A miniature replica of a Spanish galleon, the Hispaniola, made trips to Treasure Island, where holidaymakers could dig for doubloons.

The Hispaniola was designed by BF Lawrenson and built in Hull by Don Nelson.

Its maiden voyage on the Mere, on 18 June 1949, was inauspicious. In a motorboat, the mayor of Scarborough had gone to the island where the Hispaniola was moored. The idea was to sail back on the Hispaniola but halfway back it broke down and grounded. The mayor had to be taken off to lighten the load.

For a few years, the Hispaniola was marooned at one side of the site of the former Atlantis waterpark in Peasholm Gap. Today, it sails the south bay in summer.

The Mere occasionally froze and became a skating rink

Friends help Pam through her cancer hell Words and photos by Dave Barry A SCARBOROUGH woman who has been to cancer hell and back says she couldn’t have survived without her friends.

Pam Taylor of Columbus Ravine recently got the all-clear after two near-fatal skirmishes.

After her second cancer diagnosis, Pam had her womb, bladder, bowel, urethra and other parts removed in an eight-hour operation. She was in hospital for six weeks.

“Because I’ve had it twice almost in the same area, and my mother died of it, they performed a huge pelvic evacuation and plastic surgery”, she says.

“It was a massive operation, the biggest one they do at Castle Hill Hospital”, says Pam, who has been supported throughout by her friends at a line-dancing class in Burniston.

Pam has been going to the class for several years. “They have been so supportive. They've had a whip-round and taken me out every week and contacted me all through my stay at Castle Hill.

“They phoned me, they sent gifts and flowers and cards, and they are still taking me out”.

Pam has spent two big birthdays in the shadow of cancer. The first time she had it, she was discharged just before her 60th, after eight intensive weeks of radiotherapy

Back on the dance floor …

and chemotherapy at Princess Royal Hospital in Hull.

She celebrated her 70th with a party at the North Cliff Golf Club last August, not knowing if she was going to live or die.

Her line-dancing friends attended and £700 was raised for Cancer Pam Taylor Research.

Now, the class has raised another £100, which they have presented to Gill Blanchard, who represents the charity.

“They have been absolutely fantastic”, Pam says, tears falling down her face.

“All of them. They have been amazing. I can’t put it into words to be honest. They’ve just got me through it, that and the line-dancing. And they are still taking me out”.

Pam recently returned to the class, at the village hall in Burniston, but can only do a limited amount. “I can’t do as much as I did but I want to get fully back to how I was before.

“The first night I went back, they were all clapping and cheering!

“I just fight all the way”, says Pam, who also goes to a keep-fit class.

Pam, who was born Filey, and her Scarborough-born husband Jeff were married at St Oswald’s Church in Filey in 1968 and are planning a golden-wedding party in October.

Tour and gala news from Cayton DETAILS of Cayton’s annual gala will be available at Cayton in Bloom’s table-top sale at the Jubilee Hall on Saturday 14 April.

A pie-and-pea supper and quiz will be held at the Cayton Playing Fields Association clubhouse at 7pm on 20 April. It will raise money to help finance the gala and fun run.

Admission will cost £5.

It is being organised by a new committee, formed to plan the fun run on 13 July, from 6pm, and the gala on 15 July, from 11am4pm.

Anyone interested in getting involved and assisting on gala day or acting as a steward for the fun run would be welcome. Gala stalls cost £10.

The Tour de Yorkshire will pass through

by Dave Barry A TWO-HOUR beach clean organised by Surfers Against Sewage on 14 April will start at the slipway by the Spa Bridge in Scarborough at 11am.

Litter-pickers will get vegan crêpes provided

by Anna from FlipNFast, a raffle ticket, a ticket to see two surf films at Blue Crush and a drink at Blue Crush.

The raffle prizes are being provided by event sponsors Patagonia, an environmentally conscious surf and clothing company, and Magic Rock Brewery.

Admission to the film night costs £5, which

includes a raffle ticket and a drink. Beachcleaners won’t have to pay. It starts at 7.30pm.

Organiser Steve Crawford says: “Help SAS clean south bay and learn about our campaigns to clean up the oceans. Single-use plastics are a huge problem for the environment. They end up in the sea and on our streets and beaches. Help us pressure manufacturers and the government to phase out these pointlessly harmful items.

“Learn about plastic-free communities and plastic-free schools. Become part of the evergrowing movement away from waste and moving towards sustainable living”.

Cayton again on 5 May. The cyclists will cross the Carrs and arrive in the village via Station Road at about 3pm, turning left into Main Street en route to Eastfield.

The police will coordinate a rolling road block, with roads closed for about an hour.

The parish council has a limited amount of bunting for residents to borrow to decorate their properties, available on a first come, first served basis.

Judges from the Yorkshire Air Ambulance, this year’s race beneficiary, will judge the decorations.

IS social media a danger to children?

That was the subject of an annual school debating competition run by the county council, at Scarborough town hall.

A vote afterwards revealed that most of the primary-school children who took part think it is.

About 400 pupils from 67 schools around the county competed in teams of six, consisting of two speakers and four pupils asking questions.

The Scarborough round was due to feature seven local schools but only four turned up: Hackness, St Martin’s, Wykeham and Seamer.

The winning team was Hackness, who go forward to represent Scarborough at the final at County Hall in June.

The judges were borough and/or county councillors David Jeffels, Martin Smith (the mayor), Val Arnold and Cliff Trotter, who chaired the debate.

Cllr Jeffels said: “It’s been difficult sorting this one out because the standard was so high. The research, the presentation and the confidence of the youngsters is amazing”.

The mayor described one of the speakers from St Martin’s, Reuben Wormald, as “prime minister material”. He was declared the best male speaker. The best female speaker was Esme Fowler from Wykeham.

Cllr Trotter said: “We have a £1m budget at County Hall but no-one was coming to meetings. We thought this competition would raise interest in the county council. It was launched six years ago. And schools like it - it’s good for Ofsted reports”.

Publicans welcome Buffaloes fraternity Words and photo by Dave Barry SCARBOROUGH publicans’ eyes light up when the Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes comes to town.

The men-only meetings of the grand lodge always end up in the Hole in the Wall, Wetherspoons or some other local hostelry.

“We’ve been known to drink a place dry”, says Dave Wiseman, who rejoices in the title of grand waiter for 2008.

Not that the Buffs are a rowdy rabble. They are mostly men of a certain age, well past 50, and enjoy the social side of their charitable fraternity as much as the serious aspects.

For 2018, Mike Thompson is the provincial grand primo, or regional boss. He has chosen as his charity of the year Scarborough RNLI, for which he raised £2,000 when he lived in Cyprus in 2008.

There will be a fundraising walk to Whitby, a

Church opens up with new glass doors Words and photo by Dave Barry A SCARBOROUGH church has spent thousands of pounds on making it look more welcoming.

South Cliff Methodist Church is a vibrant worshipping community on the south side of town.

It is in use most days for church and community activities.

It is the only church in town with a pocket watch embedded in the tower, as requested by a generous, if eccentric, stargazer from Falsgrave, who focused his telescope on it.

Although the detail on the watch face has faded, a white circle can still be seen in the stonework, high up.

The church has an elderly, traditional congregation which makes full use of modern technology in its worship and publicity; it has a website and Facebook page.

In common with most churches, it has suffered from a decline in attendance.

“As we addressed this, it became clear that a huge obstacle was that the building was somewhat unwelcoming”, explains Rev Peter Cross.

Thousands of vehicles pass the church each day and many are held up right outside the door as they queue for the Ramshill traffic lights.

Hundreds of pedestrians pass each week. But should any have glanced at the church, they would have been met with solid, rather dreary looking oak doors with iron fittings which seemed to say Keep Out! “They were so heavy that it took two people to open them”, Peter says. “The church council felt it would be a huge step forward if we could make our appearance more welcoming and try and convey the message: Come in, something interesting is happening here!”

It was decided to remove the austere and forbidding oak doors and replace them with a glass portal, at the same time redecorating the entrance lobby to create a warm welcoming feel.

The North Yorkshire Coast Methodist Circuit coughed up £22,000. It was enough to upgrade the doors and make other improvements such as changing the lobby lighting, upgrading audiovisual equipment and installing spotlights in the church for use in summer concerts.

However, the council refused permission to remove the doors, which had to be left in place. They have been fixed in an open position behind the new glass doors.

The project took several months to complete

and finishing touches have still to be applied.

Peter concludes: “We are not so naïve as to think this will rebuild our congregation overnight. When people come in they must find acceptance and welcome and that depends on us, and not the bricks and mortar of the building, but we have taken the first step in trying to reach out”. * Music has been performed at the church for many years. Scarborough Community Choir holds weekly rehearsals in the church hall. The church’s men-only singing group, Tenor XI, is popular locally and, despite its title, has always been prepared to consider new members.

The summer concerts, from September until May, are a well-established part of the local musical scene. They run alongside a fortnightly do-it-yourself concert programme which enables budding and experienced artistes to perform in front of a sympathetic and encouraging audience.

A course will begin in the church hall at 10.30am on 3 May. It is for anyone who is interested in singing but unable to read music. To enrol or obtain further information, ring Malcolm Peart on 377861 or email him at mrandsapeart@ btinternet.com.

they raised £1,800 for Macmillan nurses. The year before, when Dave was PGP, Yorkshire

Air Ambulance was the beneficiary.

Graham and Dave are senior officers; Graham’s title is grand alderman of juniper for 2014. Members are known as brothers.

They were speaking at the first of the year’s quarterly meetings at the Spa; they will be back on the first Saturday of March, June and September.

The snow cut attendance in half. Although brothers from Cyprus, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Gibraltar and Jersey made it, others from Scotland, Wales and Cornwall were noshows.

Over 500 people were expected; only about 250 turned up.

The photo shows members of the Scarborough and East Yorkshire grand lodge, which hosted the meeting. The lodge is comprised of various minor lodges. Each raises money for charity.

Church’s WW1 memorial recreated Words and photo by Dave Barry A WORLD War One memorial from a demolished Scarborough church has been lovingly recreated.

The original was in Wesley Methodist Church in Hoxton Road, which was bulldozed in 2011.

Wesley Court flats were built on the site.

By the time the church closed in 2006, it had 31 members on the books and only half attended.

The survivors migrated to other Methodist churches including Northstead, Queen Street and Westborough.

The latter’s minister, Rev Peter Cross, has had the memorial recreated, based on a photo of the original.

It was in two parts: a framed poster which recorded the names of men from the church who fought and returned; and a large, heavy brass plaque with the names of those who died in the war.

Part of Westborough Church is to be refurbished and named the Wesley Room, after the church which closed. The poster, which was saved, and the new plaque will be mounted in it.

Rev Cross plans to rededicate the memorial on or before Remembrance Day in November, to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the end of the war.

He is trying to trace relatives of the men named on the plaque, to invite them to the rededication service. The names are Arthur G Burnett, Walter Burrows, William H Clarkson, William Harris, Rev R Wilson Hopkins, Fred Hunter, JE Lancaster, Harry Leefe, Robert Livingston, Frank Newton, Charles Owston, Ed R Reed, Thomas W Reed, Charles Rowlay, Charles Smithson, Robert Smithson and Charles Wilson.

A similar plaque wasn’t created after World War Two because only one church member was killed. Rev Cross is trying to find out his name, which wasn’t recorded in church

archives.

Wesley Church’s former congregants joined a social group at Westborough Church which has met for coffee once a fortnight for the last 50 years, initially as a young-wives group.

This illustrates Rev Cross’s point that, “The church is the people not the building”.

Harry Watkinson built the first Wesley Church on Nelson Street in 1861. In 1905, the congregation had become so big that it moved to bigger premises in the next street, Hoxton Road. The original building has had several uses since it was a church. It was used to put up evacuees during WW2 and is now a nursery.

Two of Harry’s great great grandchildren, Jean Purdy and Brian Watkinson, are among the Wesley survivors. Jean attended for 60 years longer than any of the others. Her grandparents were the first to get married at Wesley Church.

Jean was christened there, went to its Sunday school and youth club, married her husband John there in 1957 and had their son Stephen christened there.

Brian and his wife Jenny (née Hughes) were christened and married at the second Wesley Church. They had two of their three children christened there and took them to the church’s mums-and tots-group, on the first floor. “We played badminton upstairs when the church moved downstairs because it was cheaper to run”, Brian remembers.

Jenny's mum, Beryl Hughes, 96, was a church regular. She lives at Ravensworth Lodge nursing home.

The second Wesley Church was the first church in town to get an electric organ. It was made by Jennings and played by former warden Jean’s father, Frank Bremner, who was also a preacher.

Community groups spring Head shave raises £1,700 clean their neighbourhoods THE SUM raised by Scarborough’s mayoress following her sponsored head-shave has risen to £1,300.

Cherry Smith was diagnosed with breast cancer in November and had to have chemotherapy, which would make her hair

fall out. So she had it shaved off in public, at the town hall.

Anyone wanting to support Cherry can make an online donation to Breast Cancer Care via her JustGiving page - search for mayoress.

Words and photo by Dave Barry What a difference three weeks makes.

When the country was poised for its national spring clean on 4 March, everything was covered by a blanket of snow.

Tidy Britain’s Great British Spring Clean had to be postponed until the numerous community groups could manage it.

“We had to put it off because we couldn’t see whatever litter may have been on the ground for the snow”, explained Jan Cleary of the Friends of Dead Road and Manor Road Cemetery.

But hard-working volunteers were out in force throughout the borough of Scarborough on Sunday, when the sun shone all day.

They donned gloves and high-vis jackets to spring clean their neighbourhoods.

Participants were asked to give as little as an hour to help the campaign.

Roger Burnett and Sheila Johnson of Scarborough Council’s community environment team coordinated the initiative.

Roger said he was delighted with “another great response” from volunteers who were all eager to get out into the spring sunshine and make their areas sparkle.

“We’ve had about 20 groups out over the borough, from Whitby to Reighton”, Roger said. “Some of the roadsides through the villages have been particularly bad”.

Roger and Sheila gave a conducted tour to the mayor and mayoress, Martin and Cherry Smith, who encouraged the enthusiastic volunteers.

They were in Whitby on Friday and Reighton and Scarborough. Cllr Smith praised everyone concerned. “We’ve traveled around the borough and seen what a difference the Friends groups make. All the community groups are doing fantastic work. It’s not just about picking litter either as many of them are planting bulbs and all sorts of other things to improve the environment. The transformation has been phenomenal”.

Events at library in Newby A WEEK of events at Newby & Scalby Library will celebrate its first year as a community library.

They include: 9 & 13 April: spring story time at 2.15pm, children's crafts at 3pm. 11 April: adult crafting at 10.30am and 2pm, hand massage 1-4pm. 13 April: musical fun for under 5s at 10.30am. 14 April: music at 10.15am, bear’s picnic party for under 5s at 11am.

Vigilantes lure alleged paedophile A VIGILANTE group lured an alleged paedophile into a trap which led to his arrest.

The man, aged 53, was arrested near Scarborough railway station on Saturday morning.

He was charged with attempting to meet and have sexual activity with a 14-year-old girl following online grooming, which comes under the Sexual Offences Act 2003.

The girl did not exist and had been invented by a so-called paedophile hunter group who confronted him.

The man was arrested, questioned in custody and appeared at York magistrates’ court on Monday.

The police do not encourage vigilante actions.

“So-called paedophile hunters are taking risks they do not understand and which can undermine police investigations”, a police

statement said.

“Most importantly, unlike our officers, they have no way of safeguarding child victims.

“In this specific case, it is important to remember that the man has a right to a fair trial. Legal proceedings are now active under the Contempt of Court Act. “We strongly urge people – especially online not to act in a way which could compromise the course of justice.

“Our position on so-called paedophile hunter groups reflects the position of the National Police Chiefs’ Council, in that we understand the desire to protect children but any member of the public who has information about child sexual abuse, online or otherwise, should get in contact with the police so we can investigate and bring people to justice”.

Club night for adults with disabilities Blue Lounge bar in St Nicholas Street, Scarborough, will host a club-night experience for adults with disabilities on 9 April, from 7.30pm until 10.30pm. It will feature “toned-

down music” from DJ Jon Baxter and sensory lights. Entry will cost £1.50. The proceeds will go to Steps at Gallows Close. For details, ring Kate on 07527 107444.

WENDY Heselton-Wu served Chinese tea from an iron teapot at an event which celebrated equality and diversity.

Wearing a modernised costume from China’s Han dynasty, she offered other teas including semi-fermented oolong tea, Kun Lun herbal chrysanthemum tea and a flower tea.

Wendy, which is the anglicised version of her Chinese name Juan, infused the tea in an iron teapot with enamelled interior.

She and other volunteers served tea and coffee from various parts of the world at the event, at the YMCA on Sunday.

It was organised by We are Scarborough, a community action group which respects identity, appreciates differences and celebrates diversity.

Partners include Scarborough Council, North Yorkshire County Council, the police, Coast and Vale Community Action and Yorkshire Coast Homes.

Julie Hay, who chairs We are Scarborough, was serving strong Ethiopian coffee. Members of the Syrian refugee community served Arabic coffee. The police served Yorkshire tea.

Milly Estrada and her daughter Leidy Gomez offered a hot chocolate called Toddy from Venezuela, where they originate.

An inflatable globe was used to show visitors where the drinks were from.

Wendy Heselton-Wu serves semifermented oolong tea in an iron teapot (to order photos ring 353597) Among other things, We are Scarborough targets hate crime. Hate crime is an act of violence, hostility or prejudice directed at people because of who they are - or who someone thinks they are. n A similar event will be held in the Crescent in June.

Wedding and plant-sale clash WHEN Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decided to get married, they forgot to check with Newby & Scalby in Bloom.

The unfortunate oversight means the two events clash and many people who might have gone to the wedding will be selling

plants instead.

Also on sale, at Newby & Scalby Parish Hall on 19 May, from 8.30-11am, will be ginilla cakes and garden-wood creations.

The date and time have been changed.

WALK OF WITNESS

BY JOE COATES For many years, Churches Together in Scarborough have highlighted the importance of Easter with a Walk of Witness through the town on Good Friday. It’s always a memorable experience, in town and at the castle. I’m usually there!

It was a lovely morning. Freddie was not at school, because it was Good Friday. He was in town with Grandpa. There were a lot of people around the top of the precinct.

“Is anything special happening?” said Freddie.

Before Grandpa could answer, a brass band started playing at Alma Square.

“Let’s see what this is about!”, and they walked as quickly as they could to investigate.

It was the Salvation Army band and a crowd was singing an Easter song. There were people dressed up, sitting on the grass.

“It’s the start of the Easter story. These are the disciples of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.

Do you know the story, Freddie?”

“Yes, we’ve done it at school. I know Easter is not really about chocolate eggs and springtime rabbits. Most of us like chocolate though.

Look! That must be Jesus there, with those Roman soldiers!”

Grandpa nodded. “I think so.”

Suddenly a drumbeat started, and the

characters began to walk from the Garden of Gethsemane, followed by the crowds. Grandpa and Freddie walked with them. A large wooden cross was carried.

“What is this?” Grandpa asked someone.

“It’s Churches Together in Scarborough. It’s a Walk of Witness for Good Friday. Here’s a service sheet with the hymn words. And, for the boy, here’s an Easter egg with the Easter message. What’s your name?”

“Freddie,” said Freddie, as he slipped the chocolate egg into his pocket. “Thank you!”

“Good to have you with us! We’re going all the way to the castle.”

The crowd gathered outside the Brunswick shopping centre, soon to be the court of Pontius Pilate, then the green hill, outside the city wall, Calvary

The wooden cross was raised, and Jesus was there. The crowd were shouting, angry, then more singing! “When I survey the wondrous cross, on which the Prince of glory died!”

Women wept at the cross, as Jesus died, and was lifted down. Freddie was enthralled with the drama. “Don’t worry!” said someone. “This is not the end of the story. In two days’ time [on the third day] the followers of Jesus will see a miracle. One that would change not only their lives, but the whole world. It’s Friday today, though don’t worry, Sunday’s coming.”

Then somebody lifted up the empty cross, and carried it down the precinct. The whole crowd followed, on its way to the castle. The drum beat continued. Jesus had been crucified. The castle seemed a perfect place to have some final hymns and thoughts, “outside the city wall in a high place”.

After the Walk of Witness was finished, Freddie wanted to have a look around the castle. It’s a fantastic place, full of atmosphere and history.

A headland rock between North Bay and South Bay. Great views, which have hardly changed over centuries. Freddie loved those ancient walls, and the steep cliffs. Scarborough Castle was perhaps his favourite place to go.

People lived on this headland in the Iron Age, around 2,500 years ago, before Jesus was born. The Romans had a signal station here.

There’s the oldest chapel in the town, dated 1000 AD. King Henry the second built the great tower keep around 1160. Such a strong castle, unfortunately brought to ruin in the English Civil War 1645, when under siege from Oliver Cromwell.

Grandpa said it was time to go. It was nearly lunch time. They needed something to eat.

Freddie reached into his pocket and took out the chocolate egg. They looked at each other thoughtfully. Before Grandpa could say anything, Freddie reassured him. “Don’t worry Grandpa! I’m not eating this today. I’ll keep it till Sunday. I’ll read the Easter message first.

Remember! It may be Friday, but Sunday’s coming!” © joecoates2018 www.northbaytales.com

School bangs the fair-trade drum Words and photo by Dave Barry A FAIR-TRADE tea party was thrown at Northstead primary school during Fair-Trade Fortnight.

Over 300 cakes and biscuits, baked by the school cook using fair-trade ingredients, were sold.

Teachers, pupils, parents, grandparents and others washed them down with fair-trade tea, coffee and orange squash.

The local fair-trade group sold fair-trade products. Pupils found out where they come from and drew pictures of them, which were on display.

Fair-trade products donated by Newlands Coop and Proudfoots supermarket were raffled.

Key -stage-2 pupils interviewed family and friends to test their knowledge of fair-trade products. Younger pupils filled in a booklet about Pablo the Super Fairtrade Banana.

Sainsbury’s donated fair-trade prizes for the winners.

The tea party, which raised £210 for Sport Relief, was one of many similar events held around Scarborough during Fairtrade Fortnight.

The annual campaign aims to get shoppers, campaigners and businesses in the UK talking, thinking about and buying fair-trade goods, says Northstead teacher Melanie Baines.

“It is about better prices, decent working conditions and fair terms of trade for farmers

and workers.

“Despite millions of farmers in developing countries working hard to grow the food we eat every day, many don’t earn enough to know where their next meal is coming from”, Melanie said.

The school recently won the first Fair-aware schools award in recognition of its work with fair trade.

Staged at the Rugby Club, the tournament was opened by the Lord Lieutenant of North Yorkshire, Barry Dodd.

Mr Dodd is an engineer and chairman of an engineering company which he started. He has a keen interest in encouraging young people to take up engineering.

Besides the UTC, the other winners represented Graham and Scalby schools.

Rooms Design Studio to mark fifth anniversary with new displays

Diary

APRIL

These upcoming networking events will keep you in the loop.

FIRST TUESDAY OF THE MONTH CHAMBER MEETING, Boyes, Queen Street, Scarborough, 6pm. Visit www.scarboroughchamber.org.uk or email info@scarboroughchamber. org.uk

TIME flies when you’re busy and having fun.

To Juliet Dawson of Rooms Design Studio, it doesn’t feel like five years have passed since the showroom opened in Victoria Road, Scarborough.

“It’s flown by”, says Juliet, who runs the business with her husband and fellow designer Chris.

The showroom has a boutique feel to it, light years away from the massive, impersonal spaces of their national competitors.

It’s a small firm and the husband-and-wife team pride themselves on friendly, relaxed and thoroughly professional service.

Three new displays are to be fitted in the showroom this year. “Trends change, new products come out and we like to keep up”, Juliet explains.

Rooms Design Studio offers a full design service.

As project manager, Chris visits customers’ homes to see what they would like, get a feel for

the place and take measurements.

Then it’s back to the studio, to recreate a room on a CAD programme. “We have just invested in new design software”, Juliet says.

The result is a photo-realistic, 360-degree, panorama image which helps visualise the kitchen as it could be, with multiple options that can be rearranged as often as necessary.

“We can add various finishes to see what a customer would like”, Juliet says. “We have a huge selection of styles, finishes and colours.

“For example, we have the award-winning Masterclass kitchens, which come with all sorts of fantastic finishes and colours from traditional Shaker styles to ultra modern handleless.

“We are an Elite studio for Cosentino, who supply quartz, granite and Dekton surfaces, and we have a huge selection of laminate worktops, which means we have the biggest choice of worktops in the area”, says Juliet.

“We pride ourselves on the fact that all our kitchens are British-made”.

The quality of everything, right down to the cabinets, is first-class, machine-edged with no visible glue lines, and with the emphasis on style and functionality.

A large selection of worktops ranges from quartz and granite to laminates.

“We have joiners and tradesmen who we recommend but we also offer a supply-only service as well, for if customers want to fit them”.

Rooms Design Studio stocks a broad range of integrated appliances such as ovens, hobs, cooling and washing goods and sinks and taps from manufacturers including Neff, Smeg and Elica. They also stock kettles and toasters from Smeg.

University expands degree and higher apprenticeships programme THE number of degree and higher apprenticeship courses on offer at Coventry University’s Scarborough campus is set to grow as interest builds from local businesses.

The university has announced a major expansion of its degree and higher apprenticeships programme by offering six new courses.

The institution already delivers degree apprenticeship courses in digital and technology solutions and chartered manager.

The courses are delivered in collaboration with major employers including North Yorkshire County Council, Sirius Minerals and Scarborough Council.

New courses will include cyber security technologist, professional accounting, engineering and healthcare assistant practitioner.

Degree and higher apprenticeships provide companies with an opportunity to nurture their

talent and enhance their business. The campus is offering the programmes to levy-paying and non-levy paying employers.

Students earn a full-time wage and study for higher level qualifications at the same time, graduating with a Coventry University award.

The announcement was made at a Scarborough Business Ambassadors dinner hosted by director Peter Wilkinson.

Guest speakers included Welcome to Yorkshire chief executive Sir Gary Verity and North Yorkshire County Council chief executive Richard Flinton.

Professor Craig Gaskell, campus associate pro-vice chancellor, said: “We have seen an incredible amount of growth since launching in September 2016 and this expansion of our degree apprenticeships programme marks another milestone for us.

“Our flexible, career-focused model of education aims to not only make higher

education more accessible but also meet the needs of local employers, and our new degree apprenticeships further strengthen this commitment.

“We're currently seeking pro-active, forwardthinking companies to work with to deliver our new apprenticeships. They are a fantastic opportunity for companies to build their talent base for sustainable growth and success”.

The dinner was also attended by university provice chancellor Paul Noon OBE.

L-R, Peter Wilkinson, Sir Gary Verity, Professor Craig Gaskell, Paul Noon and Richard Flinton

Social enterprise event at the Street THE Yorkshire coast social enterprise zone will host an event at the Street in Scarborough on 26 April, from 10am-1pm.

Speakers will include Social Enterprise UK chief executive Peter Holbrook and representatives of the Key Fund.

The aim is “to boost our drive to develop, promote and grow social enterprise along the Yorkshire coast”, says organiser David Stone of Coast and Vale Community Action (Cavca).

There will be discussion, networking

opportunities, lunch and a chance for people to find out how to get involved in the work of the Yorkshire coast social enterprise zone.

The zone stretches from Whitby in the north to Bridlington in the south and around 30 miles inland, encompassing coastal resorts, market towns and rural villages.

David says: “Traditionally, there has been a strong response from the voluntary and community sector to the challenges communities face and there is also a strong community ethos among

small, independent businesses.

“In recent years, there has been a steady growth in the social enterprise sector supported by projects such as Scarborough Enterprise Match and Cavca”, David says.

“The number of social enterprises in our area is still relatively low, in the higher tens rather than hundreds, but the number is growing steadily and there is a rising interest in socially-oriented business models. The role of the zone is to consolidate and accelerate that progress”.

21ST MAR - 19TH APR

Birthday celebrations will bring surprise gifts, at least one of which could be described as a love token. A bright cheerful mood permeates throughout the month, apart from a temporary 48 hour dip around the 18th, when a friend or colleague puts you in a position of heavily divided loyalties. You’ll have to spend some time sorting out someone else’s

mess, but don’t expect too much thanks for your efforts.

Social aspects see you getting out and about a bit more than usual, with interesting travel aspects at weekends; you may be spending a little extra money to impress someone, but no harm done here. Female members of the sign should be aware of the fact that their flirtatious teasing could be taken seriously, while gentlemen Arians need to be realistic in their romantic ambitions.

TAURUS

20TH APRIL - 20TH MAY

April always brings a feeling of restlessness; it’s time to be doing something, going somewhere, starting something new! If you can achieve any of this, then you’re fine and flying high, but if not, you’ll find yourself becoming grumpy and frustrated when even the tiniest thing fails to fall into place. There is a need to adjust to new family realities.

GEMINI

21ST MAY - 20TH JUNE

FOOD & DRINK • ESPRESSO YOURSELF - One of Scarborough's fave café's just got bigger • RECIPE OF THE MONTH - Brie Apricot, and Walnut Stuffed Chicken

A brighter and more harmonious month in family matters and affairs of the heart. There seems to be a willingness to compromise, and partners pull together towards common goals. New job prospects for some, new work routines for others, and this is not a time to be any kind of shy shrinking violet! If you’re offered more responsibility, reach out and grab it with both hands.

CANCER

21ST JUNE - 22ND JULY

If you are given the opportunity to turn back the clock, and try igniting some old lost flame from your past, see this not as an opportunity, but a temptation that needs to be avoided. The person who broke your heart once could quite easily do it twice – but only if you give them the chance! This is a time to look forwards, not backwards.

LEO

23RD JULY - 22ND AUGUST

HEALTH & BEAUTY • TRIED & TESTED - New for Spring / Summer 2018 • THE ROYAL HOTEL - The perfect wedding venu we'll have you know.

A strong month for building relationships, although time spent apart will be just as important as time spent together.

A confident mood where jobs and careers are concerned, but don’t take on more than you can cope with, and do not allow career ambitions to get in the way of your emotional agendas. A necessary journey comes at an awkward time.

VIRGO

23RD AUGUST - 22ND SEPTEMBER

Some reward in the wind relative to the patience you have shown over the last few years. Good things do not land in your lap like Mannah from Heaven, but there is now a subtle shift in the pattern of your luck, and doors do begin to creak open in your favour. Unexpected meetings during the last week of the month create some new sexual excitement!

LIBRA

23RD SEPTEMBER - 22ND OCTOBER

Keep in touch! Email: krystal@thescarboroughreview.co.uk

An exciting month where relationships are concerned, and if someone is propositioning you with some weird and wonderful new idea, be brave and say “yes”!

Finances are improving, but someone else is making a lot of effort to make this so. Ladies

in particular will get some hard materialist evidence of a partner’s commitment.

SCORPIO

23RD OCTOBER- 21ST NOVEMBER

Some family dissent in mother/ son relationships which cannot be easily resolved without major compromise – but what constitutes a compromise? Finances are a bit “up and down” at this time, caused by unexpected expense. Some necessary changes of plans around the 21st/23rd are an inconvenience, but could also be a blessing in disguise.

SAGITTARIUS 22ND NOV - 21ST DEC

It doesn’t come quickly or easily, but you will nevertheless be successful in finding new pathways and targets for the mid and long term future. A boost to your self confidence (and motivation) occurs between the 7th and the 11th which encourages you to do something you have been putting off for far too long. This brings some deep feelings of inner satisfaction!

CAPRICORN

22ND DECEMBER - 20TH JANUARY

Other people look to you to provide a degree of leadership, so it’s no use you waiting for others to make decisions, because that isn’t going to happen until you have made a few of your own. A fair bit of work pressure at this time, which could lead to some over-tiredness. Discipline where diets and exercise are concerned might be helpful.

AQUARIUS

20TH JANUARY - 18TH FEBRUARY

Sudden travel aspects could be exciting – but just as equally, they could be a real pain! Still, when you gotta go, and all that…

On a deep mental level, you’ll be surveying the next few years of your life, and will arrive at a number of disturbing conclusions. However, this is NOT a good time to be impulsive, and you should bide your time before making any major changes.

PISCES

19TH FEBRUARY - 20TH MARCH

If someone is pushing you into making some kind of emotional choice, it may be because they’ve waited far too long for you to do exactly that! You may resent the pressure, but the only way to remove it is to actually make a decision of a “yes” or “no” nature, then things are done and dusted one way or another, and everyone will know where they stand.

MOVING IN My boyfriend and I have been together for a few years now and we’ve casually talked about moving in together often. He recently dropped a bombshell: He wants to move in with his mates who are moving to York in summer. I’m furious, I really thought we would take the next step soon and can’t believe he would rather live with his mates than me after us being serious for so long. I want to ask him to move in with me but I’m scared I won’t like the answer.

You say you’ve casually talked about moving in, but have you talk-talked? Sit him down and discuss the fact that you had hoped you would move in together soon - make it clear what you want. He might rather live with you, but you don’t know until you ask, and the answer is something you’re going to have to accept either way. On the one hand he might want a year of living with the boys before he settles down - which isn’t a crime, although you need to decide if you’re happy to wait around for him. Or it could be something he might do if you guys didn’t end up moving in together.

Either way, a clear conversation is what’s needed to resolve this. If you don’t ask, you’ll never know.

STOP FEEDING MY KIDS! My family is vegan, including my kids, aged 5 and 7. Before people start kicking off, they are perfectly healthy and happy. The trouble is, whenever they get back from my mother in law’s they seem to have dicky tummies.

I’m sure she’s piling them with dairy products and not telling me. I don’t want to be ungrateful for her having them but she can’t keep on feeding them stuff behind my back, especially when they feel poorly afterwards.

I’ve asked the kids what they eat at grandma’s house to make sure I’m not being paranoid and they have mentioned stuff like ice cream and Sunday dinners - both things that can be vegan, but I have my suspicions. How do I approach it?

You’re going to have to ask grandma very nicely without pointing the finger of blame.

You could maybe broach it casually in the sense that you’re worried the kids might have an allergy so you’re watching what they’re eating, and if she could keep a note of what she’s feeding them that would be fab. With any luck you’ll find that the dicky tummies mysteriously disappear. On the other hand, they are your kids and it’s totally up to you how you bring them up - she should respect that and you might need to draft in a little help from your partner to back you up if it comes down to it.

INHERITANCE SPAT My grandma left me more money in her will then my siblings and cousins.

This wouldn’t have been a problem but my aunt and uncle were present at the reading of the will and told everyone. They are now suggesting that I should share it equally. The trouble is, I spent a lot more time with my grandparents than anyone else did and I feel that grandma left me more money because we were much closer. Should I respect her wishes or cave in to my family’s demands?

RESPECT YOUR GRANDMA’S WISHES and screw anyone else who says otherwise. I’m well aware that you have to live with your family through this decision but I’m shocked and appalled that they even considered going against their grandma’s will for their own financial gain. Money does horrible things to people and this is a prime example of it. You need to get some team members on your side who understand that this isn’t your decision, you didn’t ask to be given what you’ve been given and it’s utterly disrespectful to go against dead family member’s wishes. What a horrid bunch, and what a horrid time to act up like this. Feel free to remind them that there’s a clear reason you’ve been given this money and it’s quite frankly, because you spent more time with your grandma than they did.

SCARBOROUGH REVIEW LIFESTYLE

Furniture shop celebrates four years in business MARCUS Anthony Furnishings Ltd, on North Marine Road, is celebrating its fourth birthday this month.

The 10,000sq ft store stocks a huge range of high quality beds, dining room furniture, kitchen furniture, sofas and lamps.

Brother-sister duo, Marcus and Catherine work hard to provide the best shopping experience for their customers, there’s no pushy sales and they understand that buying furniture is a long time investment.

Catherine explains: “We want our customers to feel relaxed, we like to welcome but nor harass! We know it can sometimes be stressful (buying furniture) so we try to bring a sense of humour and lightheartedness.”

“I always say to people ‘don’t rush this’, it’s not something you’re going to be changing every few months so take your time.”

As well as a relaxed service, it’s important to the duo that the store is set up just right - brand new lighting across the second floor ensures that people see the furniture in it’s true colour - so there’s no surprises when they get it home and living room set ups across the store help customers visualise the furniture in their own homes.

The service goes beyond selling

furniture. Its important to Marcus and Catherine that people are comfortable: “When you go home you’re going to be sat on your sofa for quite a while, especially if its on an evening, you need to know that you’re going to be comfortable.”

Its no surprise that the store runs so smoothly - Marcus now has 29 years experience in the furniture industry and Catherine’s wellbeing background is the perfect tonic.

To celebrate their fourth year anniversary in April, Marcus Anthony Furnishings Ltd will be running special offers: • New summer stock of cane furniture • Price reduction on the luxury La-Z-boy range As well as a great service, customers enjoy free delivery from a brand new van within a 25 mile radius, and once furniture is bought - if they’re not ready for it to arrive, the store will look after it for them until they’re ready.

For more information call 01723 361351, email sales@mafurnishings or go to www.mafurnishings.co.uk.

Marcus Anthony Furnishings is located at 13-17 North Maine Road, Scarborough.

Colour poppin’ Jaw droppin’, colour poppin’ brights are taking centre stage in our homes this season.

FOR anyone who gardens on acid soil, Rhododendrons are some of the most prized ornamental shrubs.

Profuse trusses of bell-shaped flowers in a wide variety of bold colours and the generally evergreen foliage, give year round form and texture to the garden. They range in size from giant tree sized forms that reach 30m in their native habitat, to tiny low growing alpine varieties.

Rhododendrons require moisture retentive, but well drained, acidic soil with plenty of organic matter and a pH of between 5 and 6. If you are not sure of your pH, testing kits are available.

GROWING

Even if you’re not blessed with acidic soil there are still a couple of ways to grow Rhododendrons and other acid loving plants like Pieris and Gaultheria in your garden. The first and most simple way is to use pots and containers filled with special ericaceous compost. This is a peat based compost that contains no lime and has a pH of around 5.5.

The only drawback to pots is if you live in a hard water area and water with tap water, lime builds up in the compost making the plants yellow and sickly with a lack of vigour (chlorotic), but even this can be got around by either collecting and using rain water or applying a specific fertiliser that feeds the plant and counteracts the lime.

Another problem growing Rhododendrons in pots is bud drop.

Flower buds form in midsummer, and should compost in the pot dry out, even for a short period of time, the stress will cause the buds to fail and not develop correctly and fall prematurely. Over the last few years

many new hybrids of Rhododendron yakushimanum have been bred; these are known as Yak hybrids, they all are floriferous, compact, slow growing and very hardy hybrids that come in a wide range of colours and are ideal for containers. Some of the most popular are ‘Fred Peste’, ‘Golden Torch’ and ‘Percy Wiseman’.

The second way is by building a raised bed. Railway sleepers are ideal for this as brick or stone built beds that are mortared in contain a lot of lime in the mortar, but again this can be got around by lining the sides with polythene. The bed is then filled using the lime free ericaceous compost; this has fewer drawbacks but could take up a lot of space and is quite expensive.

FLOWERING

Rhododendrons usually start flowering in February, with Rhododendron praecox being one of the first. It requires a sheltered site, as the rosy purple flowers are slightly susceptible to damaging frosts, but the real show starts in late April and builds to a stunning climax of colour in early June, though some varieties, notably ‘Polar Bear’, flower during July and early August.

Rhododendrons can be planted all year round, provided that the soil is not frozen or water logged, but the optimum time is September when the ground is still warm but moist.

Spring planting can be equally effective but requires very regular watering throughout the summer months to ensure successful establishment. A good thick organic mulch on the soil surface after planting helps conserve moisture.

QUAYSIDE NETS TOP 10 PLAICE! ONE OF Whitby’s leading eateries has proven that it is also one of the best in the UK, after making it onto the list of Fry Magazine’s Top 10 Fish and Chip Restaurants for 2018.

The multi-award winning Quayside, which is owned by Fusco’s of Whitby, was once again named as one of the country’s best after a representative from the leading industry trade magazine, carried out a mystery review.

During the anonymous visit, the judge carefully inspected over 40 aspects of the business including the quality of the food, which assessed the flakiness of the fish, the crispness of the chips and the crunch of the batter, alongside value for money. In addition, staff presentation, frontof-house hygiene and customer service was also scrutinised.

Quayside also scooped extra points for being able to showcase that the restaurant sources its fish and potatoes locally and offers customers disabled access and the option to pay by card, as well as maintaining an active social media presence.

Head of Quayside, Stuart Fusco, comments: “As a family run business we are committed to serving the best fish and chips, cooked and served in the traditional way that many visitors expect when taking a trip the Yorkshire Coast.

So we are overjoyed to have been awarded this prestigious accolade, which is testament to the hard work and dedication of our great team.”

ONE of Scarborough’s most popular cafés has doubled its floor space by opening an attractive outdoor coffee garden.

Espresso Yourself in Falconers Road got the thumbs-up from the town-hall planners last June and completed the project in October, when it was becoming too cool to sit out.

The new terrace - in Falconer Square, right next to the café - is enclosed by an artificial green hedge.

Café owner Andy Walker ensured that all the materials were locally sourced and everything was custommade to match the surrounding styles, from the wrought-iron arch to the decking and the Yorkshire flag stones.

The suppliers included ID Developments and DS Engineering of Scarborough and Evergreen Direct in Pickering.

“The architects and planners were really happy with

how it has turned out”, Andy says. “I’ve wanted to do it since we opened here in 2014”.

The coffee garden, which officially opened on 30 March, can seat 40 - five more than the café.

Besides generating more business, the investment has created more jobs; probably one full-time and two part-time.

One of the reasons for building the terrace is that the south-facing, glass-walled café is like a conservatory in the summer. “One day, it was 38 degrees”, Andy recalls. The installation of canopies reduced the temperature by 10-15 degrees.

Espresso Yourself has a strong community feel to it; people have made friends there.

The coffee is consistently excellent. The baristas have been trained by Andy, who has also run Walkers in Bar Street since February of last year.

The opening hours are 8am-5pm Monday to Saturday and 10am-3pm Sundays.

Website helps shoppers save money and spend locally SCARBOROUGH has been included on www. bigbarn.co.uk, a website to find local food and drink producers in the area at the click of a button.

BigBarn offers a local food map, giving consumers the chance to log on, postcode search producers, retailers and farmers in their area and even buy online. As a not-for-profit organisation, BigBarn supports the British food industry and wants to make it easier for busy people to enjoy delicious local food and drink.

Its argued that small local businesses can offer cheaper produce as they aren’t paying hundreds of pounds in fuel prices and dealing with huge distributors, instead they work directly with local farmers and producers, often in their locality or region. And, because of this reduction in the supply chain they can pay the farmer a

fair price, sell the produce for much lower than the supermarkets can and still make a tidy profit.

Health, wellbeing and self care

by Terry Anne Scholes WE ALL seem to be good at looking after and nurturing others. When it comes to doing this for ourselves, it seems harder to find the time.

This results in stress, depression, lack of worth, resentment and other negative feelings.

There are many ways we can give ourselves self care which in turn increases our self worth, self confidence and self belief.

Here are some ideas.

Hobby, pastime: have an interest you can turn to when life becomes stressful. It can be something to do at home alone or outside, like following your local football team.

Boundaries: learn how to say yes and no according to how you feel. Nothing worse than agreeing to do something you don't really want to, as this builds up resentment. Be true to yourself.

Gratitude: begin a gratitude journal or appreciation diary. A notebook where you can write three things each day you have been grateful for. Clean sheets on the bed, water from the tap, a message from a friend are worth being grateful for and create a sense of happiness.

Remember your inner child: what did you love to do as a child? Recreate some of those things now, and go with the feelings associated with recreating.

How about hopscotch, making daisy chains, kicking a football about, french skipping, tennis ball against a wall? Once you think of a few, many others come flooding back.

Unplug: TV and the internet have taken over our lives for many positive reasons. However, they can also suck time and energy from us. Allow yourself to switch off and embrace being in the moment and where you are rather than in someone else's world.

It’s great to have a break from this before bedtime to ensure a good night’s sleep.

Plan: have something to look forward to, especially in the short term. It can be a visit to a town you have always wanted to explore or an evening out with friends. The simple things bring great pleasure.

Be outside: allow yourself some time outside with nature each day. Notice what is going on in your closest environment. Spring is particularly uplifting, seeing bulbs coming through and knowing the winter has been survived.

Terry Anne Scholes Life virtuoso, delivering hypnosis, NLP and laughter

What they say: The Charcoal and Black Seed soap includes organic black seeds from Saudi Arabia, known by Arab’s as ‘the blessed seeds.’ They are an important ingredient in the traditional Arab’s skin care routine, because they are rich in antioxidants and restore health to damaged skin. Founded by the first practicing female homeopath in Saudi Arabia and her daughter, Azara Beautique uses only organic ingredients with proven benefits, all sourced from the Middle East.

What we say: This soap looks great in any bathroom. It’s not as bubbly as others due to the nature of the natural ingredients but it left our hands and faces feeling soft and clean - without being dryed out. Decent.

Blondie Locks by Noughty £6.99 each |Superdrug | www.noughtyhaircare.co.uk What they say: Enriched with zesty lemon and rhubarb zing, Blondie Locks Shampoo and Conditioner help brighten that blonde.

Noughty’s haircare range is packed full of goodness, vegan-friendly, contains no parabens, sulphates, petrochemicals or silicones and is perfect for all the family.

What we say: As with most natural products, during the wash they’re a little less foamy than their chemical competitors but that doesn’t matter.

Once our hair was dry, our locks felt soft, looked shiny and smelt fresh.

Scarborough Review • www.thescarboroughreview.co.uk

THE RUDSTON MONOLITH IS THE LARGEST STANDING STONE IN BRITAIN Local artist Dav White talks about the fascinating world of history, art and mythology

The face with the serpentine hair at All Saints Church All Saints Church is nestled on a little hill in Rudston, on the Wolds.

It was built after the Norman conquest in what has become one of the oldest inhabited villages in England.

Many generations have added to the interior adornments which are still used as part of the observance of faith.

However, this picturesque plot and all it contains are counterpoised by a foible of ancient lumpen gravitas, an old timer, a thingamabob, a gizmo so old that no-one can recall what it is called or why it is there.

It has been called the grandmother of the church and is included in many books recalling it, past and present.

It is generally agreed that this majestic whatchamacallit gave its name to the village.

The Rudston monolith is the largest standing stone in Britain. It is taller than the Sarsen stones of Stonehenge and just as heavy. Sarsen means heathen or pagan.

The name Rudston or Rood-Ston in Old English, meaning cross-stone, may refer to its position at a crossroads which is no longer visible, rather than a cross of consecrated stone.

The name Rudston may also be from Hrodrsteinn in Old Norse, meaning famous stone.

At 26ft high and weighing 40 tons, it’s made of moorland grit stone, such as the kind found at Cloughton quarry.

It was dragged from either Cayton Bay or an outcrop at Grosmont, depending on which history book you read.

It was placed in this very particular position, at the prominent meeting point of four equally important cursuses, just like the cursus at Stonehenge.

The prevailing definition of a cursus is an unexplained and not fully understood linear feature in the landscape. It may be a sunken road, used for processional or ritual purposes, like an approach road to a stadium or a track between two arenas.

Superficially, a cursus looks like a deep and wide ditch, but unfathomably old, dating from 5,000 years ago during the Neolithic period. The term cursus is the archaeological label derived from the Latin word for racecourse, because past archaeologists thought Neolithic cursuses were Roman athletic tracks.

The Rudston monolith

There are four cursuses converging on Rudston, which is on a natural bend in the Winterbourne stream, the Gypsey Race. They are called the Argham cursus, Beacon cursus, Glebe Farm cursus and Breeze Farm cursus. Coupled with a henge on the northern approach to Rudston, they illustrate how important the area was to the people who lived there in prehistory.

A.N. Cooper, secretary of the East Riding Antiquarian Society, wrote in 1920: “There are those who are of the opinion that this stone was set up by the Phoenicians on their trip to England. For the Phoenicians were great builders and the Rudston people might flatter themselves that they were once visited by the builders of Solomon’s temple”.

The Phoenicians, a pre-Roman civilisation of north Africa, are thought to have traded directly with Britain in prehistory. The name Britain is said to come from the Phoenician name Baratanac, meaning land of tin.

The Greek historian Herodotus, who is the source for much of the little we know about the ancient world, describes how tin comes from the ‘lands of tin’. The trade between Britain and the Phoenicians is thought to explain how Cornish tin is found in artefacts all over Europe.

A major Roman road and the remains of a Roman villa lie outside Rudston, suggesting the importance of the area even after the Roman conquest.

In the chancel of All Saints Church is a piscina, under which is a foliated face or green man.

The Romans believed that certain places had a genius loci, a protective spirit. They felt the need to contribute their own deities and shrines to the landscape while being careful not to interfere too much with the native shrines.

Genius loci means the prevailing spirit in a place or attendant spirit, like a keeper or caretaker specific to a certain time and space.

The carving has a youthful face and foliage growing from its head. It has been suggested that it is like nothing else in the church and is probably a reused piece of masonry from the Roman villa, interpreted as a Medusa because of the serpentine pattern of its hair.

In the 1970s, the writer John Michell described menhirs and other standing stones as great nails in the ground to fasten down the magnetic energy of the Earth, which was described by 18th century antiquarians as chaotic and serpentine.

Many old monuments from prehistory were described as serpent-like by William Stukeley, John Aubrey and other historians who attributed this to the druids’ obsession with snakes and snake-like shapes and patterns.

This was reinterpreted by Michell as energy

A map of old Rudston patterns in flux across an undeveloped landscape. He pointed out that this is much like the general principles of feng shui, a Chinese system of channeling energy flows, which the Chinese call dragon lines, the dragon being another type of serpent.

At All Saints Church, the face with the serpentine hair has been placed in the wall facing the monolith through a window facing north.

As part of the piscina, it holds water and plays its part in the ceremonial cleaning of objects used during service.

This is good feng shui.

Issue 56 - April 2018

Curious Roots THANKS to technology, we’re more isolated from the natural world than our ancestors. Yet we still feel the rhythms of nature. With new life all around, surely only the stoniest heart could fail to feel the thrill of spring.

For most of our garden birds this is the main month for nest building, and some of those nests already hold precious eggs. April sunshine tempts butterflies from hibernation — peacocks with startling eyespots, raggedy commas, and small russet-winged tortoiseshells.

Milder days will see buff-tailed bumblebees foraging for nectar among the daffodils and pussy-willow catkins. These queens, the first wild bees to emerge from hibernation, are a marker of the progress of spring. After the buffs come red-tailed, black bumblebees, enormous balls of fluff — luckily all these bumbles are harmless.

April may be chilly, but we don’t care — east winds in spring bring a good summer, says the old weather lore. And we know that spring comes later here. At sea level, the green tide sweeps northwards at around 17 miles a day.

Temperatures need to top 6C for several days before trees buds break open. So before too many leaves close out the light, plants of the woodland floor take their chance to flower.

In the April woods there are delicate wood anemones with flimsy white flowers shivering above ferny leaves. The glossy yellow stars of lesser celandines turn to track the sun’s path throughout the day. Ramsons, or wild garlic, have a globe of white stars on a long stalk, and live in large colonies that give off a fresh, garlicky scent. Dog violets, so called because they have no scent, flower on woodland edges.

Hugging the ground, they catch the eye with a sudden glimpse of this year’s fashionable colour — violet.

Coltsfoot and primroses flower along the cliffs.

There’s the blaze of yellow gorse, the tiny blue flowers of speedwell, and sometime in April, a dusting of white on the blackthorn.

Blackthorn blossom forms breathtaking snowdrifts of tiny flowers. In autumn those tangly bushes will bear black sloes, like little damsons; in April they give warning of cold weather. The flowers usher in a cold snap that

BY HEATHER ELVIDGE

normally happens just prior to mid-April — the Blackthorn Winter.

Daffodils are everywhere this month, flooding gardens and roadsides with glorious yellow.

While they’re certainly cheerful, many find the wild daffodil more beautiful. Narcissus pseudonarcissus is shorter, more delicate than the garden hybrids, and tends to flower later. Their fluttering masses inspired William Wordsworth’s well-loved poem. But there’s no need to go to the Lake District to experience the wonder. Wild daffodils bloom in Harwood Dale, Arncliffe Woods, and alongside the river on Farndale’s famous Daffodil Trail.

In April the inrush of summer birds begins, although a few brave sand martins, swallows and chiffchaffs arrived in the south in March. A century ago the cuckoo was the special one, the bird that ushered in warmer days. On hearing the first cuckoo people turned over a coin for luck, while workers downed tools to drink the bird’s health.

Cuckoos are grey-blue birds with a barred breast, the size of a collared dove. Their numbers have halved in the last 30 years, so to hear one now is lucky indeed. However, seeing one has never been easy. The penetrating voice carries far and wide, but the secretive singer can be some way off, concealed in a tree. When flying overhead the cuckoo resembles a kestrel, which is perhaps why cuckoos were thought to become hawks in winter.

As the month proceeds, fruit trees blossom.

Although we see them every year they still seem wondrous: the pale pinks of apple and plum, the froth of ornamental cherries, the deep red of crab apples, and the delicate white showers of our native woodland cherry.

Meanwhile in the night sky, the great wheel of stars turns to spring. Orion sinks; the twin stars of Gemini rise. Venus as the Evening Star blazes low in the west, rising to pass the red eye of Taurus on the 27th.

A good night’s sleep on April 30 will ensure we’re up early to wash our face in dew. May dew softens skin, and even cures ailments — so folk used to think. But we’ll not beat the Morris sides. They will already be out, dancing before dawn to welcome the May Day sun.

Muck & Magic

By Shelia Johnson It would be an understatement to say that this winter has been difficult for gardeners. We are a resiliant bunch generally but the long months of dark and cold have tested patience to the limit! Added to that the persistent rain has meant that it's perilous to go anywhere near the soil. Gardening is richly rewarding pastime but, occasionally, can be intensely frustrating! We would normally expect to be well into the spring season now but instead of getting on with seed sowing and planting, we are still holding back and hoping for a chink in the cold weather, when we will finally be able to get back to some proper gardening.

In the meantime the garden will be looking very sorry for itself and many trees and shrubs will be in need of some TLC. In the Muck and Magic garden it's the biting wind that has caused most damage, burning leaves and foliage that would usually be considered as tough as old boots. Privet hedges are looking brown and shrivelled and, on the coastal cliffs, the tropical looking Torbay palms have been shredded apparently beyond repair.

However, resist the urge to get busy with the secateurs, the shears or the hedge trimmers.

This is precisely the time for patience in the garden and allowing Mother Nature to heal herself. If you are not sure if your plants have succumbed try the age old gardeners trick of scratching the bark gently with your thumbnail. If you can see some green tissue under the bark then there's a good chance that your plant will recover given time.

and this is the right time to prune. Remember always to snip back to a healthy bud. Hedges will recover even if things look desperate at the moment and there appears to be a mountain of wind blown foliage on the path.

Hebes, particularly, are great at appearing to be dead and beyond redemption. However, in most cases they are only pretending. Under the soil the root will be working away getting ready to get nutrition up to the new buds as soon as they appear along the length of the stem. So when the spring has finally sprung and you feel your green fingers itching to be busy in the garden , take it easy, put the kettle on and play a watching game.

Stay off the grass until the water logging has gone and the same goes for staying off your borders until the soil is workable again. In the the greenhouse keep some heat on if you are bringing on tender summer bedding or veg plants. It's fortunate that we gardeners are an optimistic bunch and we know, however long it takes, that the sunshine will return and then we can all grumble about how hot it is and how much watering there is to do!

The next meeting of Muck and Magic Garden Club will be held on Monday April 9th when Barry Bishop from York RSPB will be talking about "Gardening For Wildlife". The meeting starts at 7pm at Ebenezer Church Hall, Columbus Ravine. Further details from muckandmagic@hotmail.com or call Sheila on 07961 966617

Happy Gardening!

Given a few weeks of spring sunshine and steady temperatures buds will begin to swell

Scarborough Strata

By Roger Osborne

You won’t need me to tell you that the roads have taken a bit of a battering from the wintry weather. Layers of tarmac stripped off, potholes everywhere and drains bursting with meltwater. All that from just a week of snow, ice and freezing winds.

Now just imagine that week of weather lasting a year, or maybe a decade; or how about 100,000 years. That’s how long the last ice age lasted. In just a week the weather gave us a mini-demonstration of how something as apparently feeble as water and wind can, when it’s cold enough, chew up hard stone and throw it around like matchwood. This gives us just a small taste of what happened in the earth’s recent past.

The evidence of those 100,000 years is all around us. Those piles of gravel scoured off the roads are small versions of the huge gravel pits all across the region – best seen at Burton Riggs nature reserve off the A64. The piles of mud and silt that are blocking drains

are miniature versions of the fans of debris washed out of glacial channels like Forge Valley and Newtondale.

This month we’ve been seeing geology in action as solid rock and stone is recycled into gravel, mud, silt and sand before being laid down and solidified all over again. It’s a process that goes on along the coast all the time as the sea wears away at the land, and piles up sand and pebbles on our beaches in return. Now we’ve seen the same powerful forces at work inland.

It’s all been going on for a long, long time.

Geology students can all quote James Hutton, the founding father of geology, who said that the earth’s cycle of uplift and erosion had ‘no vestige of a beginning, no prospect of an end’. Thankfully that’s not quite true of the Yorkshire winter – even if it feels like it.

Spring is on the way and we can forget about winter until . . . next year.

Saint Catherine’s Make a Will week SAINT Catherine’s annual Make a Will week returns on 23 April.

The campaign aims to prompt people into taking the first steps to writing a will or updating an existing one.

Several local solicitors have agreed to give their time and expertise for free to support the hospice.

They will meet hospice supporters to take their instructions for a simple will during the week and then draft a professional will.

In return, the solicitors will expect a donation to Saint Catherine’s. The suggested minimum is £125 per single will and £200 per matching pair. It is payable at the time people sign their will to the solicitor, who will forward the donation to Saint Catherine’s.

To take part, book an appointment for the week commencing 23 April with one of the solicitors as soon as possible; mention Saint Catherine’s Make a Will week when making the appointment.

Hospice fundraiser Debbie Kay said: “We are always very grateful for the continued support of the local solicitors. This offer is a way for our supporters to help themselves to valuable

advice whilst at the same time raising vital funds for patient care.

“Saint Catherine’s are privileged to have spent over 30 years providing specialist care to patients with a terminal illness. We provide services free of charge to patients and their families from an area of more than 1,600 square miles, including Scarborough, Filey, Bridlington, Whitby and Ryedale”.

The full list of solicitors and more information can be found online at www.saintcatherines. org.uk/events/make-a-will-week.

Bad weather affects charity collections THE snow storms and freezing temperatures stopped many Marie Curie volunteers from collecting donations in Scarborough.

The weather put the charity’s biggest annual fundraising campaign, the daffodil appeal, at risk of missing its £264,000 target during March.

However, a new date for a supermarket collection has been confirmed and the charity is appealing for volunteers to give two hours of their time to help at Tesco on 7 April.

Fundraiser Jennifer Carmichael commented: “As the dedicated team of nurses steps out

whatever the weather, they urgently need the support of people from across the county to ensure that vital fundraising continues so the charity can keep on providing care for people suffering a terminal illness.

“They can step into a snowy spring by signing up to the 10,000 steps per day challenge in exchange for sponsorship from family, friends and work colleagues”. n For more information on Marie Curie or the daffodil appeal, ring Jennifer on 01904 755260 or email jennifer.carmichael@ mariecurie.org.uk.

to the theatre

THE Rotary Club of Scarborough Cavaliers is sponsoring a performance of The 39 Steps at the Stephen Joseph Theatre in aid of Saint Catherine’s.

The Olivier award-winning play is to be performed in the round for the first time from 21 June to 23 August.

The club is to take over the theatre for the performance on 27 June.

Club president Chris Case said: “The audience will not only be among the first to see The 39 Steps in North Yorkshire since its premiere over 20 years ago but will also help us raise money for a local charity,” he added.

SJT chief executive Steve Freeman described

the play as “a real gem and its association with the county will hopefully attract a full house”.

Hospice fundraiser Nicky Grunwell added: “We need to raise around £6m annually to continue to deliver our services free of charge to patients and their families across Scarborough, Ryedale, Whitby and Bridlington. We rely on events such as this, organised by our supporters, to reach this amount”.

The club will run a silent auction on the night.

Tickets cost £20 and can be bought in person at the box office, over the phone by ringing 370541 and online at www.sjt.uk.com.

Club aims to improve the lives of women and girls everywhere Words and photo by Dave Barry THE local branch of a worldwide organisation which tries to improve the lives of women and girls everywhere is moving into its 80th year.

Globally, Scarborough Soroptimists have paid for the education of a girl in Pakistan and support Smiles to Tanzania.

This charity buys school uniforms to enable children to go to school and solar lamps to replace dangerous oil lamps, in Ukerewe.

Nationally, they have supported their parent organisation with its projects.

And locally, the Soroptimists support women’s refuges such as Eva Women’s Aid, which provides accommodation and professional support for abused women.

Members have raised awareness of tissue and organ donation and cleared rubbish from the beaches as part of a national scheme to reduce coastal pollution.

They have supported many local charities including the Rainbow Centre, the Amicable Society, Yorkshire Air Ambulance, Parkinsons, Young Teens and Dial-a-Ride.

The local branch meets on the second

Monday of each month at Montrosa in Esplanade Road, on the South Cliff. “We have speakers and discussions and work towards helping the organisations with which we are involved”, says spokesperson Claire Feather.

Members and friends convened at the Palm Court Hotel on Saturday to celebrate the charter given to the branch 79 years ago and to celebrate the work that has gone on in the club for all these years.

Reflecting on the club’s history, Claire says: “Our main achievement has been Montrosa, which provides supported living for older people - not necessarily Soroptimists - who no longer wish to live alone.

“In the 1950s, a building was rented from Scarborough Council to provide homes for women whose living accommodation had been attached to their jobs and who could not afford to buy a property”, Claire says.

“The Soroptimists ran the project. Now Montrosa is a purpose-built property run by professionals with some Soroptimists acting as trustees”.

Anyone interested in joining the Scarborough branch should ring Claire Feather on 512548.

Seafarers group moves meetings downstairs Walking in the countryside A SEAFARERS group has moved its meetings to the ground floor to save members having to climb stairs.

Scarborough Merchant Navy Association used to meet on the first floor of the Anglers Club.

“It was recognised that some members had found it difficult to negotiate the stairs to the upstairs meeting room and therefore all future meeting will now be held downstairs”, says secretary Keith Eade.

The next meeting will at 11am on 15 April.

The association’s annual dinner dance, at the Royal Hotel on 31 March, has sold out.

Other events include coach trips to Hull and Harrogate and a get-together at the Railway

Club on 18 July. Details can be found on the group’s Facebook page.

Keith says: “We would like to hear from any seafarers, male or female, who are still working at sea or who have retired from any departments, including those serving in, or having served on, any merchant navy vessels and cruise ships, or worked offshore and in fishing.

“Our main goals are to bring together people with a common interest in seafaring and to enjoy various social functions including day trips throughout the year”.

Remarkable blues singer at Mojo’s

Benjamin Bassford at the Spa in 2015

Words by Wanda Maciusko, photo by Dave Barry IT was the darkened Spa Ocean Room on a Saturday afternoon at Scarborough’s Top Secret blues festival in 2015.

As the young man strummed his first chords and sang the opening lines of his initial number, the audience instinctively knew he was someone special.

“Good British acoustic blues is a rare commodity but Benjamin Bassford has certainly put himself up there with the best”, according to Adrian Blacklee of Blues Matters magazine. He wasn’t wrong.

Benjamin, who plays at Mojo’s at 4pm on 18 April, was born and lived in a pit village in Nottinghamshire. He went to a comprehensive where his interests were encouraged. His first interest was theatre and drums. He worked with county performers and was surrounded by

a music-playing family, hearing everything from Rod Stewart to swing.

One day, he picked up his dad’s old classical guitar and started playing. He formed a duo and played in folk clubs and at open-mic nights in the Mansfield area.

At 18, he came to Hull University’s Scarborough campus to study contemporary theatre and performance, leaving with a first-class degree.

During this time, he developed a love of blues, roots and folk styles, which he has settled into playing. He was lucky to be living in a creative environment, surrounded by passionate musicians.

He spent a lot of time wandering round the town listening to Tom Waits’ Grapefruit Moon.

He lived at 1 St Martin’s Square for two years. A photo of the front door graces the cover of his second EP, Songs from the Blue Door, released in 2016.

With the support of fellow students, particularly his long-time friend and recording engineer Emilio Rizzi, he recorded his first EP, Road Sickness, in 2014.

The same year, he played at Watermark and on the acoustic stage at the Great British R&B festival in Colne. The more he performed and travelled, the more he wanted to.

And so began the career of a remarkable singer on the British acoustic blues scene.

His music reminds me of American blues singers of the 1920s and 30s. He writes his own songs; his lyrics are haunting and moving.

He has gone from strength to strength while holding down a day job in Nottingham.

He’s now releasing a selection of singles on the Down–Home Recordings label, recorded on Emilio’s sofa.

Several films of Benjamin, including his first official music video, can be found on YouTube.

Benjamin’s website is at www.benjaminbassford. com.

Willie Nelson band to play Filey twice THE country sounds of Willie Nelson will reverberate around a couple of venues in Filey this year.

Full Nelson are to play at the Dragonfest fundraiser at Filey’s Evron Centre on 27 April and in the town’s country park on 28 July.

Celebrating one of country music's greatest songsmiths, Full Nelson are on a mission to play the highlights of Nelson's 83-year life and 60-year career.

The band perform Nelson classics including On the Road Again (not to be confused with Canned Heat’s song of the same name), Always on my Mind (a big hit for Elvis Presley), Whiskey River, City of New Orleans and Crazy, written for Patsy Cline.

The band has been building a solid reputation for its shows over the last few years, performing in theatres, country festivals and halls near and far.

Gary Luntley, as Willie, is joined by Joe Dunn on bass, Ian James on drums and vocals, Al Lawrence playing harmonica and John Dickinson on keyboards.

POEMS The Evolution of the Horse

by Anne Pilgrim-Green

In the very horse beginning who’d have dreamt they would be winning in the Derby, Guineas, National or Staintondale Hunt Chase,

because before the evolution horses end was persecution Neolithic man’s solution was to eat them by the brace!

Long before the time of Moses, little horses had long noses, little legs, no hooves, just toeses, and they herded in the damp.

In the swamps of the Thames Valley was the first Pony Club rally and they all became quite pally, so they held a pony camp!

“For our horse line to continue (Men will always club and win you)” said their leader, “stronger sinew, longer legs is what’s required

“Do we stay as Eohippus?

May as well have gills and flippers!

Do we let the world just whip us? a new horse just must be sired!”

Equus was going places: smiles and bridles on their faces: cruppers, carriages and traces and they really did belong!

Soon the Greeks caught on and bit by bit made saddlery and shoes that fit, wrote books by Xenophon on it and possibly a song……..(on it)

In our hunting fraternity English kings said, “What a pity! big fat horses are not pretty, gosh! whatever can be done?”

Three fine Arabs were imported riders’ bums got less distorted as on thoroughbreds they sported “huntin’, racin’ … supah fun!”

So in the very horse beginning who’d have dreamt they would be winning in the Derby, Guineas, National or Derwent Members race?

Because before the evolution horses end was persecution Neolithic man’s solution was to eat them … … by the brace!

And they all stood up and cheered and their toes all disappeared!

A few just bucked and reared: the committee then retired.

Yorkshire roads take me home

by Matti Gledhill

Almost heaven by the seaside, Sandy beaches hidden by the rising tide, Life is good there, I never want to leave, A lighthouse and a castle, always a cold breeze.

Yorkshire roads take me home to the place I belong, Back in Scarborough by the harbour, Yorkshire roads take me home.

All my family gather on her, Regal Lady sailing on blue waters.

Sunset in the evening painted on the sky, Smell of fish and chip shops, hear the seagulls cry, Yorkshire roads take me home to the place I belong, Back in Scarborough by the harbour, Yorkshire roads take me home.

I spend my days walking, Through the moors and country, The air is fresh, the sky is blue and I’m not far from home, Driving with my friends I get the feeling that I will never be alone, Yorkshire roads take me home to the place I belong, Back in Scarborough by the harbour, Yorkshire roads take me home.

Yorkshire roads take me home to the place I belong, Back in Scarborough, by the harbour, Yorkshire roads take me home, Take me home Yorkshire roads, Take me home Yorkshire roads.

Taking a leaf out of her book SCARBOROUGH Art Society will host a demonstration of printing and book making in the lower hall at Queen Street Methodist Church on 4 April, at 7pm.

More on the Thank you DEAR EDITOR mechanical elephant On behalf of the members of North Cliff Golf DEAR EDITOR, In the February issue of the Review, a Jean Bradley enquires about the mechanical elephant which visited Northstead Manor Gardens in 1951.

The attached image shows this elephant Diane Baker and the with ladders taken in mechanical elephant 1953 in Bridlington.

The photo belongs to my partner, Susan Hill.

The girl in the photo is her older sister, Diane Baker.

Unfortunately there is very little more I can tell you other than Sue, Diane and the family took a holiday in Brid each year in the early fifties.

At the time, they were living in Kippax near Leeds, where Diane still lives.

Diane was five at the time and remembers how comical it looked when moving, saying it almost looked as though it was on roller skates.

She also remembers how huge it looked to her at the time. Sue was only two and obviously has no memory of that particular holiday.

Hope this may be of interest.

How or what to call the police

DEAR EDITOR Last week, snow returned: snowballs thrown playfully. Less humorous at my house. Sounding hard on my windows. I chased away youths aged about 16. Attack came again on Monday around school leaving time before 4pm. Then again at 6pm. They rushed away, shouting abuse.

Phoning the police on 101 is another nightmare, going through Northallerton and various departments, never reaching the force here.

I walked to the police station and reported details to a male receptionist.

Tuesday morning, a policewoman and a support colleague came to the house. They thought now the snow had gone, matters would end and it was too hard to trace what streets or schools those figures belonged to.

Tuesday at 5pm I returned, opening my front door, to be pelted with eggs by the offenders rushing along the pavement opposite.

At 8pm two large rocks hit the house front, breaking two window panes. I walked to the police station. The female receptionist told me to calm down, as if I was the offender not victim.

She said no officer was available to deal. This was criminal damage, on the verge of attempted murder. Broken glass covered my front room.

If that six-inch, three-pound rock hit anybody, it could kill.

Wednesday morning, I went to the police station a third time. The female receptionist arranged for officers to come that afternoon. They did not sound hopeful of going after anybody, suggesting I made myself a target by having an odd-looking, run-down property. The heavy crime weapon did not seem to interest them.

Reporting the incidents, five times in all, I never received a reference number, nor much indication of one group of officers connecting with the others. When I have paid for the house repairs, I have little confidence the attacks will cease, but might come again.

Club I would like to thank you for the excellent article you published on page 44 of your March 2018 paper.

My wife Lorna would also like to thank you for reporting the 60th anniversary of the Scarborough & District Women’s Luncheon Club in your February edition.

It’s good to have a paper that reports things of interest and importance to local people.

WHAT’S ON

Update on Filey plan

DEAR EDITOR Thank you for the feature in Scarborough Review about the McCarthy & Stone planning application in Filey.

This is an update on how things stand.

The local town council and over 100 residents around the proposed site have objected, stating planning policy / regulation breaches connected to this planning application 17/02734/FL. If this is happening in sleepy little Filey on the North Yorkshire coast then it does not bode well for other sites in a similar situation nationally.

It opens up all identified housing allocation sites within local plans for developers to come in and build whatever they want with the support of local borough councils, totally ignoring some of the protocols, methodology, planning policies / regulations, site specific appraisals and site constraints and conditions in place to protect environmentally sensitive areas.

This story has evolved over the last three and a half years. The evidence to support these comments are substantial and remarkable, given the significance of the points raised concerning this planning application.

Castle visitors could win Annual walk has raised £215,000 for local children an eggsclusive prize Words and photo by Dave Barry

YOUNG visitors to Scarborough castle over the Easter weekend could win one of six eggsclusive eggs designed by a leading children’s illustrator.

Youngsters will be invited to “set off with our Roman centurion, who'll help you crack the clues and hunt the dragon's eggs. Discover his lair and claim a chocolate reward”.

Artists including JK Rowling illustrator Olivia Lomenech Gill and Julia Donaldson’s favourite artist Lydia Monks have teamed up with English Heritage to create eggs inspired by the charity’s 400 historic properties, including Roman forts, medieval castles and stately homes.

From knights and Norman conquerors to princesses, mythical beasts and ancient fossils, each illustrator has created a design telling the story of English history, myth and legend.

Young visitors can search high and low for a chicken token hidden in the undergrowth.

Those who find a token will win one of the eggs.

The castle will be open from 11am-5pm from 30 March to 30 September.

Dr Michael Carter, properties historian at English Heritage, said: “For centuries, eggs have been given as gifts at Easter. This year, we’re giving this time-old tradition a new twist with the ultimate Easter egg hunt.

“Decorated eggs have been recorded as gifts as early as 1290 when Edward I purchased 450 to be lavishly coloured and covered in gold leaf for his courtiers. And in the early 16th century, Henry VIII received a silver-mounted egg as an Easter gift from the pope in Rome.

The egg is often interpreted as a symbol of

The six eggs which can be won (photo by Jim Holden) rebirth and new life.

Various traditions and superstitions have sprung up around the egg at Easter.

People used to think that eggs laid on Good Friday would turn into diamonds if they were kept for 100 years; that eggs cooked on Good Friday and eaten on Easter would promote fertility and prevent sudden death; and that if an egg had two yolks, the eater would soon become rich. It became a custom to have eggs blessed before being eaten.

In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, children in Cumberland and Westmorland played a raucous game involving rolling eggs down a hillside.

The chocolate egg started being mass produced in the mid-20th century, so is a relatively new phenomenon.

PREPARATIONS are under way for a walk which raises thousands of pounds a year for local charities.

The 41st Crown Tavern Charity Walk, on Sunday 6 May, will raise money for local disabled and disadvantaged children.

The annual walk usually raises between £8,000 and £10,500. Last year’s raised £10,500.

There are two options: a 22-mile walk starting in Hawsker and an eight-mile one starting at Hayburn Wyke. Both follow the old railway track and end at the Crown Tavern pub in Scalby Road, Scarborough.

“Many of our beneficiaries take part in the shorter walk - some in wheelchairs - and in effect are helping to raise money for themselves”, says Tracey Shaw, one of the organisers.

Whichever one they choose, walkers get a free coach ride from the pub, where registration takes place, to the starting points.

“100% of what the walkers raise is donated to

the beneficiaries,” says Tracey.

“Over the 40 years we have raised approximately £215,000 which has all been distributed to local disabled and disadvantaged children”, Tracey adds.

She says: “Our beneficiaries are all local charities for disabled and disadvantaged children and young people.

They are Mencap, Disabled Swimming Group, Riding for the Disabled, Yorkshire Coast Sight Support, Epilepsy Action, Wilf Ward Trust, Scarboccia, Yorkshire Coast Families, Goalball, the Lollipop Group, Frame Football and Orange Zebra Drama Group.

The organising committee has seven members: Jane Moment, Ray Springall, Mike Goode, Ian Holland, Susan North, Tracey Shaw and the Crown Tavern’s new landlady, Belinda Leppington.

Entry / sponsor forms are available at the pub; from Jane Moment, one of the organisers, on 07999 839338; and via the website, www. crowncharitywalk.co.uk.

‘A masterpiece of suave perversity’ ISABELLE Huppert plays the successful head of a video-games company who tries to find out the identity of the masked man who rapes her, in Scarborough Film Society’s next offering.

Directed by Paul Verhoeven, Elle is a masterpiece of suave perversity, a psychological thriller full of surprises (18, 9 Apr, 130 mins).

The society’s next film, Twentieth Century Women, is based on director Mike Mills’ teenage years, during a turbulent 1979 summer

in a creaky old seaside boarding house.

It shows how a boy enters manhood with a trio of older understanding women in this free-form movie (15, 23 Apr, 118 mins).

Both films were released in 2016.

Films are shown at the society’s new home, St Mary’s Parish House, on the corner of Castle Road and Auborough Street.

The film society’s final films of its 2017/18 season are Land of Mine (7 May) and A Man Called Ove (21 May).

Admission costs £5.

THE Friends of Scarborough Art Gallery had a talk by the group’s vice-president.

Mike Atkin spoke about the time-consuming creation of his remarkable book An Alphabet of Scarborough.

He used high-quality hand-made paper, suitable for his etchings, engraved woodblocks and text.

Press officer Robin Stenhouse said: “As he showed us the pages from A to Z, he entertained us with stories and details behind the images and text”.

Mike planned to make 26 books so only 26 good copies of each page of text were needed with one extra copy of each illustration to be framed separately before the etched plates and engraved woodblocks were destroyed.

Each of the leather-bound books comes in a beautiful box.

Mike’s efforts have been rewarded by sales to renowned museums and galleries around the world.

The Friends, a registered charity, exists to support the gallery and its collections of paintings, prints and drawings.

Many famous artists have lived and worked in Scarborough and the tradition continues today.

The gallery celebrates their creativity and achievements and is of great value to the town's reputation as a tourist resort.

New members are welcome, for an annual subscription £10.

BORO HAVE 8 CUP FINALS TO GO! This month Ant Taylor has a look at Scarborough Athletic’s final month of their Evo-stik North League season. Will they be celebrating a promotion?

You can find him on Twitter @Iamradioant It's the day after Scarborough Athletic’s 2-0 defeat against Colwyn Bay and their third consecutive Evo-stik League game at home. By the time you guys read this we will (hopefully) have 6 points from Mossley FC and Atherton Collieries (if not there's nothing we can do now).

Heading into the last month of this 2017/2018 season, there are eight massive games for Steve Kittricks’ Seadog team. It all starts at Tadcaster Albions’ i2i Stadium on Easter Monday in the A64 Derby. We previously played the Brewers on Boxing Day and this

Michael Coulson with trademark celebration taken by Morgan Exley result kick-started a 10 game unbeaten run in both league and cup. If this happens again, it could be enough to achieve a well-earned promotion to the NPL Premier Division.

After the Taddy game we are back on the road to Goole, who sit at the bottom of the league but still have a trio of ex BORO strikers in Stewart, Sinclair, and Curtis who have all scored goals in Seadogs colours. The team is also managed by Karl Rose who scored his fair share of goals for the old Scarborough FC team from 2001- 2004, they could still have a say as to whether we are celebrating come the end of April.

we may have been looking at the New Years Day fixture away to South Shields as a tough fixture, but they don't come any harder than The Reds, deep in the heartland of Lancashire.

This is a tight sloping football pitch that may prove advantageous to Steve Cunnighams’ young and hungry-for-success Colne side.

Being our last away fixture of the season we hope to see a larger than usual number of travelling supporters to cheer us on to victory.

In the run up to the end of the season, we will have two rearranged Tuesday night games against Radcliffe FC and Colwyn Bay and after previously losing to the Seagulls these could be two very important fixtures that could make or break our season.

If all goes to plan, the last two matches in April will be the biggest of the season and will define who goes up. It is tight at the top with Hyde United and South Shields, and with Bamber Bridge hot on our tails anything could happen. We entertain Glossop North End in a rearranged home fixture (previously postponed due to the Beast from the East which scuppered Boros’ attempt to try and increase the gap to the chasing pack). Finally, the last match of the season at home to Osset Albion. This fixture will go down in the history books as it will be the Unicorns final league fixture. Next season, they will be merging with their cross town rivals Ossett Town to become Ossett United for the 2018/19 season.

Hopefully come 5pm on Saturday 28th April, it will be us cheering and we will be promoted automatically or can look forward to the playoffs. There is still a lot of football to be played and it is still in Steve Kittricks’ hands.

Come mid-month we finally get another outing to the Flamingo Land Stadium and a visit from Brighouse Town. In the past, this fixture has been important for BORO and although they are sitting lower down in the league they could upset our push for promotion. We will need to reignite the spirit of four years ago when in the match nicknamed "The big one", BORO produced a spirited performance to earn a 2-0 victory (ironically the match back then was on the 13th April).

After the midweek game in North Wales against Colwyn Bay we have our last away fixture at Colne FC. At the start of the season

The Tour de Yorkshire winners’ trophies have been displayed at the start and finish towns of each leg of the race.

For the first time, the race will pass through Filey, where the men’s and women’s trophies were shown off.

To promote the race, they were taken to the town’s primary school and the big fisherman sculpture on Coble Landing.

They were accompanied by a representative of the Yorkshire Air Ambulance, which the race is supporting this year, and the charity’s Helivan, with Pilot Percy and Paramedic Polly.

Boro promotes easy way to cut stroke risk Words and photo by Dave Barry PROFESSIONAL footballers may be fit but many are still prone to strokes.

Over the years, several young players have suffered strokes, including former Scarborough Athletic defender Dean Lisles.

“Only recently, a non-league manager in the south of England suffered a stroke during a game”, says Boro chair Trevor Bull.

Boro teamed up with the Stroke Association and the Rotary Club of Scarborough to raise awareness of one of the biggest risk factors for strokes: high blood pressure.

“Taking a blood-pressure test only takes a moment and it’s such a simple way to reduce your risk of a stroke”, Trevor said.

His daughter, Christina Winkfield, a staffnurse at the hospital, spent five hours of her own time measuring people’s blood pressure at the club.

Boro boss Steve Kittrick and about 10 players including Michael Coulson, Max Wright and Josh Snowden were among the 66 adults who rolled up their sleeves.

While Boro were being beaten by Colwyn Bay, Rotarians handed out leaflets and encouraged fans to have their blood pressure checked.

The annual event is run by Rotary and the Stroke Association to help people understand the link between high blood pressure and strokes, other risk factors and what they can do to reduce their risk of having a stroke.

Over half of all strokes can be caused by high

blood pressure and it is estimated that over five million people across the UK don’t realise they have the condition.

Alexis Kolodziej of the Stroke Association added: “High blood pressure often has no symptoms, and it’s much more common than people think. A blood pressure check is quick, easy and painless, and it could save your life”.

Three black belts for teenager Words and photo by Dave Barry A martial-arts club in Scarborough is celebrating after a young member got his third black belt.

Kyle Richardson, 17, achieved the hat-trick under the tutelage of Soke Darrel Haigh of the Rising Sun Association of Martial Arts.

Soke is a Japanese term meaning head or founder.

Only one in a thousand martial-arts practitioners get a black belt; to get three is even rarer.

“He's got them because he's been in two or three clubs at a time”, explains Kyle’s proud father Eddie.

Contenders are judged on teaching ability and have to write a 1,000-word thesis; Kyle’s was on the history of jujitsu.

He was 14 when he achieved his first black belt, in iaido, after six years training under instructor Paul Thompson. His second one was for karate and the third one was for jujitsu, both under Darrel.

At the age of five, Kyle began practising Jeet Kune Do, which gave him a good grounding in martial arts.

Shortly after that, he started iaid under Paul Thompson and jujitsu under Ian Hartley.

Eddie says: “We owe a debt of gratitude to Barry Moran and Ian because they saw his potential and took him under their wing and showed him the value of learning two disciplines at the same time, how they complement each other”.

Kyle is setting a good example to other children, Eddie says. “What Kyle has done is

achievable by anyone if they are prepared to put the effort in and their parents give them the chance and the encouragement.

“Martial arts can be beneficial to all kids”, Eddie says. “They meet other children of different ages and from different walks of life, all behaving the same way, with respect, and learning from each other. That's the type of role models kids should have”.

Darrel adds that introverted children are drawn out of their shells when they settle into the club. “It becomes a family, in a way”, says Darrel. The youngest members are aged six.

He says it takes many years to achieve what Kyle has done, so to achieve it at such a tender age is particularly remarkable. “Some of the moves take months to grasp”.

Kyle is mature beyond his years and his techniques are “superb”, Darrel says.

Kyle says he would like to help others who are less able and fortunate than he is. “I like to see them grow and progress into good people”.

He has been invited by organisations in the Philippines to visit and further his knowledge. He would like to visit China and Japan for the same reasons. * Anyone interested in joining the Rising Sun School of Wado Ryu should ring 07858 944598, visit the website www. therisingsunschool.co.uk or call in at either of the club’s venues: St Saviour’s Church hall on Gladstone Road at 6.30pm on a Thursday (ages 7+) or the Sixth Form College at 7pm Fridays (ages 14+).

SCARBOROUGH REVIEW SPORTS

FROM THE TOUCHLINE DUE MOSTLY to the ‘beast from the east’ rugby in this part of the world was subject to many postponements during March and Scarborough ended up playing only two games. The first of those was against Hullensians at home and the Seasiders raced to a 26-5 halftime lead on a foggy afternoon, winning a bonus point within forty minutes. However the Humbersiders bounced back in the second half scoring a couple of tries and Scarborough grabbed the points with a 2617 win having failed to score in the second half.

The games at Heath and at home to Beverley in the Yorkshire Shield semi-final were lost to the elements and last week Coach Simon Smith’s charges travelled to Beverley. The visitors were always too slick for Beverleåy and completed the double over the home side with a 31-20 win scoring five tries for a sixteenth bonus point this season and leapfrogging into second place.

That leaves a thrilling run-in to the end of the season with Beverley, Middlesbrough and Heath all involved in the scramble for promotion.

Scarborough’s only remaining home league game is on April 7th against Moortown but first they have an eight-pointer at Heath on Saturday then the league season concludes with games at North Ribblesdale and Keighley who were both beaten at Silver Royd. A full list of remaining league fixtures can be found at: www. englandrugby.com/fixtures-and-results When the Yorkshire One fixtures are concluded with York in all probability champions, the second placed club will then play-off against the second side in Durham/Northumberland for promotion to North One. So it’s going to be a very busy five weeks and I haven’t yet mentioned the Yorkshire Challenge Shield where Scarborough play Beverley in a home semi-final at a date yet to be arranged; but first Saturday at Heath!

With only two senior games played in March I asked Scarborough RUFC’s Youth Development Officer James Perrett, who has made a big impression both on and off the field since arriving from Australia last summer, to write something about himself and his work here in chilly north Yorkshire!

I come from a small farming/mining town called Gunnedah located in Northern New South Wales and grew up on a mixed Agricultural farm. Within the town we have one rugby league club, two football clubs, an AFL (Australian Rules Football) and one rugby Union club. As you could guess there is a lot of competition for

players and spectators between those main four football codes in a small town.

I spent three years working as a part time development officer for the Australian Rugby Union while I was studying Sport Science at University. Once I graduated I managed to gain a full time job with NSW Rugby as Development

JAMES PERRETT Manager covering an area of the East coast of NSW which was 8 hours from one end to the other and had 27 different Rugby Clubs and over 300 schools within it. I was living in a beautiful coastal town called Coffs Harbour.

Travelling has always been a passion of mine.

This is my 4th trip to UK/Europe and the most unique so far. It is the first time I have stayed longer than a couple of months and the first time I have been able to base myself in one spot and travel from there. I love the fact that you can catch a train to another country which only takes you a couple of hours to get there. From Gunnedah my closest major city was Sydney and that was a 5 hour drive away. You’ve gone

through 3 different countries if you drive that far here.

Going from covering such a large area and multiple clubs in Australia to coming over here to Scarborough Rugby Union and looking after just one rugby club and the schools within just one town has been a breath of fresh air.

The impact you are able to make when your resources and time not being stretched so much is great. In Australia I used to have drive three hours, do a two hour coaching/school session then drive 3 hours home again.

It is great to see the work that I do in schools is transferring into the rugby club with new players coming up and giving it a go on a Sunday morning. When you recognise a face from the school you were in through the week coming up to the club you know they are enjoying the sessions and want to get more rugby experience.

We are still getting new kids becoming members of the club even this late in the season which is great to see. The biggest surprise when I go into schools is from the girls. When I introduce myself and say we are going to be doing rugby sessions for the next 5 weeks it is generally met with groan of disappointment, but by the end of the first sessions they love it and are excited about the next ones. It goes to show not to judge something until you try it, after all, rugby 7s is the fastest growing girls/women’s sport in the world at the moment.

This season at Scarborough RUFC has been one

JIMMY IN ACTION of the best so far for the McCain Active youth Minis and juniors. There has been great numbers throughout all age groups in both boys and Girls.

Plenty of coaches at each age group which is great for the kids as it provides different views and strategies on play with a variety of ideas.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time in Scarborough and I can’t believe that I have been here for almost a year already. I’m really looking forward to what the next year has in store as we continue to grow and develop rugby at Scarborough for all involved.

RECRUITMENT

Motoring

news PUT IT IN THE BOOT

It’s now just over a year since the crack-down came into effect on mobile phone use while driving. Despite the number of people being caught using their phone at the wheel, something that will land you an instant £200 fine and six points on your license, is down, many people are still at it. Idiots. Recently police across England and Wales carried out a huge operation to monitor the roads, looking specifically for drivers talking and texting on their phone. One officer in Bournemouth reported stopping four motorists in the first 15 minutes of his watch. Our advice isn’t about not risking the fine and points, but rather not risking the lives of the people around you and your own. Put it in the boot. Temptation over.

ACCIDENTS DOWN, TECH UP According to info released by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, road traffic accidents on British roads are down by 10% since 2012.

Apparently new technology is to thank, as now more than 60% of cars on the roads have some kind of driving and safety assistance. They also released data showing that an increase of safety devices on cars could save more than 5000 lives by 2030 and prevent more than 25,000 accidents. It’s great news that as time goes on a greater number of the cars on the road will be safer. However, it seems like the only unsafe element of the car is the fleshy blob at the wheel. We wonder when the robots will decide to remove that. ROBOT REVOLUTION!

ECHO... ECHO... ECHO...

Amazon’s Echo smart speaker, which can take voice commands to play music, order a taxi, turn on the lights, and tell you what else that woman in that thing has also been in, is now compatible with new Ford cars. Working closely with Ford, Amazon has programmed a command whereby you can switch on your car’s engine with a simple phrase... from anywhere on the planet. We can imagine it being handy on a cold morning, being able to start the engine from the kitchen to warm up the car an all, but turning it on while sitting on a beach 7000 miles away is... weird, right? Still, if it’ll impress the neighbours, let’s do it!
