Off to make a new life


in Australia


BLEAK job prospects and the general indust­ rial scene in England have led to the Crook family, of West Bradford, setting out to make a new life in Western Australia., N


Mr Andrew Crook (38) IN E


and his wife Anne, Carl (10) and Carolynne (9) are flying out on Sunday to settle in the Perth area. But it is no journey into


the unknown for the Crooks, of Southfield Drive, as they have been on holiday to Australia


round & about


twice and Mr Crook has already been working there for three months, as a foundry superintendent. He has held several


positions in foundries in England and recently worked for Platts', in Ac­ crington. The family also has re­


latives Down Under — Mr Crook’s mother and two brothers live within a few hours travelling dis­ tance of Perth. • Said Mrs Crook, who is a community occupational therapist for the Ribble Valley: “At least we know what we are going to.”


The Crooks, who lived


in Lincoln ■ before moving to- West Bradford six years ago are members of Trinity Methodist Church and Mrs Crook preaches in the Clitheroe Methodist Circuit. Mr Crook belonged to


Clitheroe Round Table, his wife was a member of the Ladies Circle and the children attended Wad- dington and West Brad­ ford CE School.

mony in the Trutex boardroom, managing di­ rector Mr Roger Wood paid tribute to Mrs Read as “a'reliable and trusted employee and a great character.” She received a set of


table lamps from the com­ pany and various gifts from her colleagues. A member of Grindle­

It ran as follows: “Rumoured marriage of


the queen.” The rumour has been extensively; cir­ culated in England, and upon which we felt it our duty last month to make some very , pointed obser­ vations, has created a sensation in the continen­ tal courts, where, whilst some treat it as merely idle fabrication, others as positively insist that the marriage of the Queen V ic to r ia and Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg is actually under contempla­ tion.


“The boldest among the


latter is a writer in the A ugsburgh -Gazette, whose assertations we transfer to our pages. “The speech of the


Queen Victoria, in proro­ guing the Parliament," says our contemporary, “makes no mention of her marriage. As some jour­ nals have hence inferred that the matrimonial1 al­ liance with the Coburgh family was still doubtful, we can affirm on good au­ thority .that the meeting of several members of the House of Saxe-Cobourg at London is for the purpose of settling the necessary preliminaries, which must precede the marriage — that is to say, everything relative to the preroga­ tives' and revenues of the intended husband^ “As for the question of


the marriage itself and the mutual.affection of the parties, all this has been sometime decided. The Duchess of Kent and, the King of the Belgians have been the most zealous promoters of this al­ liance.” “We need scarcely say


that this report wants that which alone could


■


render it valuable — au thenticity. We repeat what we said last month (and we do not feel ourse­ lves at liberty to say more) that ‘the question of the marriage itself is not yet decided.” The subject, if not the


language and phraseology of:this 142-year-old com­ ment — chaste and ex­ tremely discreet .as'it is — must, I am' certain, remind readers of - the •speculations in 'certain of our contemporaries in the weeks and months preced­ ing the happy announce­ ment on February 24th. Pleasingly, you will ob­


serve, there' was absolute­ ly no reference "to clandes­


tine meetings in , isolated railway carriages. Yester­ d ay’s jo u rn a l is t s , it seems, were a little, more circumspect • than; some who tap their- typewriters in 1981:
