A FEW broken saucers were happily the only victims when it was the men’s turn to make the tea at Whatley on Saturday. More than 100


people turned up to sample the culinary deligh ts of turkey salad followed by trifles, jelly and cakes, all prepared and served by the men of Whatley Parish Church. The men certainly


looked the part donning aprons and straw boaters, and completed their chores in style by clearing the tables ana even doing the leashing up. The Vicar of


Whatley, the Rev. Alec Harpur, introduced the idea about 10years ago, and it has become one of (he church’s most popular annual events. I t was held in


Whatley CE School Hall and was followed in the evening by a • concert organised by


Mrs Liz Colon. The vicar is pictured

YOUNG people were the subject of a talk to Edis- ford Ladies, Clitheroe, by local youth officer Mr Geoff Jackson. He outlined the various

of celebrations on Sunday, when a birthday party was laid on for Mrs Schofield, with friends and relatives popping m to wish her all the best. Clitheroe-born Mrs
