Cyril s no longer king of


the Castle PROPRIETORS of


the Castle Restaur­ ant, Clitheroe, Cyril and Susan Whiteside are leaving the cater­ ing trade to go into a new business venture.


In their seven years at


the Castle, firstly as man­ ager and manageress and for the last five years as owners, they have dou­ bled the size of the re­ staurant and helped make it one of the leading es­ tablishments in the area. But now they feel the


time has come for a change. Cyril (35), a chef by trade, has been in ca­ tering for 21 years and


wants to try something new and completely unre­ lated, though he cannot

Gary and Andrew help hospital


CLITHEROE brothers Gary and Andrew Kent made good use of part of their school holidays to raise £7 for charity with a jumble sale. The money will go to


the premature babies’ unit at Queen’s Park Hospital, Blackburn, for which the Kent family, of Whalley Road, have been helping to raise funds for the past five years, after Gary and Andrew’s mother, Pam, unfortunately lost a baby. But she was so impressed by the care the child re­ ceived at Queen’s Park that she decided to help


boost the unit’s funds. Since then, the family,


helped by friends and members of St James’s Church have raised around £1,000 — which includes £600 raised by Gary and A n d r ew ’ s father, Robert, when he ran in last summer’s Pony marathon in Bolton. Gary (8) and Andrew (4) were helped in their


jumble sale venture by Peter Lockett (8), Shelley Hardman (7) and Rachel Regan (7), all from the Whalley Road area, and are grateful to everyone who donated items.


might come back to the catering trade, but at least we will be able to say we tried a different venture,” he said. The Whitesides will


continue to live in the Clitheroe area and the “change in direction” will have no effect whatever on Cyril’s position as Clitheroe FC chairman. “It might mean that I


will not be able to devote as much time to the club at the beginning of the new season as I would have liked, but that will only be temporary,” he explained. Before taking over the


Castle Restaurant in June 1975, Cyril was a catering officer with Brooke Bond Oxo in Great Harwood. He has been in the trade since he took a weekend


job at Stirk House, Gis- burn, at the age of 14. After gaining qualifica­


tions, he obtained a full­ time post at Stirk House and later worked at the Moorcock Inn and Broc- khall, Clitheroe and Cal- derstones Hospitals. He and Susan, who

IT frequently occurs to me how very little Tom, Dick and Harry (or


Prudence,


Penelope and Pati­ ence) really know about the work of the District Councillor. It occurs to me, too,


how very little aspiring candidates must know when first they stand for election. Quite certainly my personal knowledge was almost abysmal when, some 20 years ago, I first became involved in local government. One learns all the time.


Dreams of rising in coun­ cil and electrifying collea­ gues with golden gems of oratory quickly prove sheer fantasy and over the years one slowly begins to discover what the job is all about. Now, after two de­


cades, I do know a little more; perhaps, some people may think, a lot more, but by no means all, I do assure you. And I doubt very much if anyone really does. The man in the street, I

to represent the area on the Tourism Consultative Committee, the Industrial Development Association, the NW Provincial Coun-. cil or Council for Sport and Recreation; the local Drama Festival or the Courts of Various Univer­ sities. There are Road Safety Committees, too, at various levels and quite a number more. Occasionally — and this


is very occasionally — they might be invited to attend conferences at de­ sirable seaside reports, but these are no sinecures and, if the councillor does his job properly, there are few opportunities to enjoy the pleasures and delights
