His love of the outdoors led to hobbies of gardening and watching birds and animals


A MAN who loved the out­ doors and was well known to many in Clitheroe has died


°


after a long illness. Mr John Bond, (73), of Woone


Lane, was a keen gardener and naturalist, who loved to go bird


and animal watching. He had suffered from arthritis for 25 years and had had two heart attacks, but despite having diffi­ culty in walking long distances, Mr Bond enjoyed driving out into the countryside to continue


his hobby. Bom in Clitheroe, Mr Bond had


spent all his life in the town, apart


from a few years living in Whatley. He was educated at St James's CE


.Primary School and Ribblesdale


High School. At 18, he joined the Army and


spent five years in active service fighting in World War Two, where he promoted to the rank of Lance Corporal. During that time, he was posted to France, Germany, Belgium and Holland, before returning to Clitheroe. He met his wife, Noreen, who is


originally from Cumbria, in the town and they were married at St James's CE Church, Clitheroe, in


1949. Mr Bond enjoyed a varied . J


career until his retirement, due to ill-health, 10 years ago. He had worked as an occupational thera­


pist at Brockhall and as a herds- man, as well as being a semi-skilled


____i____ * t worker at Lucas’s and a and a driver for


Castle Cement. After retiring, he took up wood turning as a hobby and enjoyed making furniture. With his wife, Mr Bond was also


well known in Clitheroe for singing in public. The couple's eldest daughter, Anne, said of her father: "He was quite a character." Mr Bond was admitted to


Blackburn Royal Infirmary last Wednesday and transferred to Queen's Park Hospital on Thurs­ day, where he died on Sunday night. His funeral takes place today and will be followed by interment at Clitheroe Cemetery. As well as his wife, Mr Bond


leaves three children, John, Anne and Heather, nine grandchildren and one great grandchild.

Mrs Bond said: "John was well-


known and well- respected by everyone."


host band concerts


CLITHEROE Is to again


play host to a series o l band concerts this summer fuelling tbe suggestion that the town should have its


own band. A series of concerts is to


be held in the town from July 26th to August 23rd, as well as the National Town Contest on May 23rd, which will bring many visitors to the town. As a result of Clitheroe's


continuing success as a location for such events, Mayor Coun. John McGowan has expressed an interest in forming a


town band. A request for local inter­


est was featured in the “Advertiser and Times” several weeks ago. It was felt that as Clitheroe was host to all these events, it seemed a logical idea for local musicians to form the


town's own band. Since then, several peo­

Chef's Name: STEVE GOODALL Address & Tel: THE PLOUGH INN


Facilities: I f rich-toned performance of


Mozart's "Hunt" Quartet, the leader, Ofer Falk, greatly helped the audi­ ence's enjoyment ol the next piece by talking them through it with the help of musical extracts. Shosta­ kovich's seventh quartet might otherwise have been far from easy listening, but now gained real emo-


| tional meaning. Beethoven's "Harp"


Quartet is equally chal­ lenging and the Schidlofs' fine account of it left the audience glowing with


pleasure. The following morning


the Schidlof Quartet gave a workshop for students


invited from six Ribble Valley secondary schools


at Clitheroe Royal Gram­ mar School. The main speaker this time was


Raphael Todes, the quar­ tet’s second violinist, who led a tour through the his­ tory of the string quartet from Haydn through Mozart and Beethoven to Shostakovich. The students, many of


whom are active musicians, were encouraged to discuss the different feelings expressed in string quar­ tets of the Classical, Romantic and Modern periods and were able to identify the turbulent and unsettling influence of the French Revolution in Beethoven's music and the frustrations of life under Stalin in the work of Shostakovich. The workshop ended


with a quiz involving the Flintstones, the Muppets and the Bear Necessities. The final concert of the


society's season will be given on March 18th by virtuoso violinist Marat Bisangaliev and pianist


Graham Scott. Our picture shows Oleg


Kogan, a member of the string quartet with chil dren from Clitheroe Royal Grammar School during


the workshop. (120298/3/4)


ple have expressed an inter­ est in joining. Town clerk Mr Peter Roberts said: "The general comments have been that a town band could be of interest to some people, but in the form of a military band, utilising both brass and woodwind instruments, instead of a brass or silver


band." He added: "The council


will be looking more deeply


into it." Anyone interested in the


formation of Clitheroe's own military band is urged' to contact Mr Roberts at Clitheroe Town Hall, 9 Church Street, Clitheroe. Tel: 01200 424722.


Stolen from van


ALTHOUGH a van was fitten with an alarm, there was no sound as a thief took £600 of equipment


from it. The items were pulled


out through a window, some time during Monday night. The van was parked in Stratford Place, Clitheroe, and the haul included several drills and assorted tools.


Whist winners


CLITHEROE’S Pendle Club held another success­ ful solo whist drive. The winner was Mr J.


Nedeljkovic, with Mr E. Holden second and Mrs D. Knight third. New members are wel­


come on Mondays at 7-30 p.m.
