FILLET OF LAMB


with Lady Edmonstone,ofDuntreath Castle, Blanefield. I I IMIIIIII III III I II I II II l i n ii' iii I I I ............... ........... ................... .......... ............mill


AS Lady Edmonstone's husband is a farmer, mainly sheep, she enjoys using different kinds of lamb for her dinner parties. This main course consists of a fillet


of lamb, which is quite expensive, but you can make it go along way or wait until the autumn when the price, hopefully, comes down. Duntreath Castle is in a beautiful


part of Scotland, not too far away from Loch Lomond, so on Bank Hol­ iday Sunday, the house party guests packed the picnic hampers, the drinks basket, ice bucket, loaded the car with the barbecue and set off for the loch. Here we unloaded everything on to


the jetty and began to pack eight people and five dogs with mounds of food and booze on to two boats, for­ tunately with outboard motors attached, and put-putted our way out across the loch. After a while we found a delightful

THE wines from Alsace deserve more recognition than they get. True wine lovers will have explored these fine white wines and se t t led on a firm favourite, the perfumed Gewurztraminer or richly smoky Tokay Pinot Gris or the


firm style of Riesling. The Alsace region was the last


one to adopt the appellation con- tro l le e s ta tu s in 1962, partly because of the last war when this region was occupied by the Ger­ mans. Indeed it has been fiercely fought over for centuries as the boundary between Germany and


France. This region is sheltered bj' the Vos­


ges mountains on one side running almost parallel with the other bound­ ary, the River Rhino. The mountains ensure most rainfall is deposited in the uplands of the Vosges, away from

the picturesque vineyards. This


region is one of the driest in all France. Steeped in history, with a predominant Germanic feel in both architecture and language, it has the highest concentration of Michelin- rated restaurants outside Baris, for it is the cuisine that lends itself to the


white wines of Alsace. Nearly 90% of production is white


wine and the only red wine is from the Pinot Noir, expressively per­ fumed with raspberries and over-ripe strawberries in good years like 1989. One of my firm favourites from

OF all the bands in all the world I'd like to be in it would


be The Beautiful South. And I thought my chance had


come when the group's first female vocalist, Brianna Corrigan, left in


the early '90s. But, alas, Jacqueline Abbott


stepped into the void, and consider­ ing she can actually sing, I suppose


the best woman won. The Manchester gig had had to be


rescheduled, due to lead singer Paul Heaton suffering from a viral infec­ tion, but it w;is well worth the wait. The band blasted on to the stage


with "Look What 1 Found in My Beer", a typical Beautiful South song title, from the latest all)um "Quench". True to form, Heaton and fellow vocalist Dave "Hemmy" Hemingway were dressed in chunky anoraks and hats, ideal for those hot stage lights, but remained as cool as cucumbers


tliroughout. "Quench" dominated the set, with


hits like "Perfect 10", which got the

crowd jumping in their seats, "Dumb and "How Long's A Tear Take To Dry", plus un-released album tracks, including the fantastic "The Lure of


the Sea". The vocals arc always shared


between Heaton, Abbott and Hem­ ingway and that is probably why I like them so much. Their voices never alter, from live performances to stu­ dio-recorded albums. The gig also coincided with


Heaton's birthday and ho was in par­ ticularly good form, bounding and dancing around the stage like he had all the energy in the world. Their first album "Welcome to the


Beautiful South" released way back in 1989, took me back to the times when my friends and I would sing the lyrics in the school yard, and "You Keep It All In" and "Woman in the Wall" were a real treat.


BUSY ATTRACTIVE RIVERSIDE SITE NEXT TO


the band has got better as the last decade has gone on, as it has always, undoubtedly, been ahead of its time. "0898" just has to be my favourite album so far, and judging from the response to "3GD" and "Old Red Eyes is Back", the audience agreed. Songs from their last album "Blue


is the Colour", such as "Rotterdam" and "Don't Marry Her", also went


down a storm. "Good as Gold" from "Miaow"


ended the set and proved to be one of the most popular songs of the night. The Hull boys and girl had definitely done good - and with their "sun­ drenched, wind swept, Ingrid


Bergman kisses" they were gone. VICKY CARLIN

D-Day hero dies suddenly at 75


ONE of the Ribble Valley's D-Day heroes


has died aged 75. Mr Frank Blenkinsop


earned a row of medals dur­ ing his war service and later became a well-known per­


sonality. A personable figure who


supported various local organisations, he was renowned for his quick wit and ready smile. Born in Barnsley, Mr


Blenkinsop came to the area as a child and worked at Grindleton Felt Mill until joining the RAF Reg­


iment at 18. He beached from a land­


ing craft in Normandy and fought through Europe, staying in the Forces until


1947. After the war, Mr Blenk­


insop worked for Ribble Cement and then moved to ICI, where he stayed until retirement. Mr Blenkinsop was one


of the early members of Ribblesdale Camera Club and had a large collection of aircraft, steam engines and similar pictures he had taken over the years. He was also a keen walker. A member of the RAF Regiment veterans' group,

Mr Blenkinsop was a keen supporter of the Royal British Legion. He was a familiar figure at Pendle


Club. Mr Blenkiiisop's health


deteriorated recently, but his death occurred very


suddenly. The funeral was at St


Paul's Church, Low Moor, Clitheroe, on Monday, when the Rev. Rodney Nicholson spoke about Mr Blenkinsop’s contribution to local life. Cremation fol­ lowed at Accrington. A widower, Mr Blenkin­


sop leaves a son, two daughters, and four grand­ children.


From cobbled streets to a river spectacular


THE latest summer walk undertaken by members of Clitheroe Naturalists' Soci­ Iety started in the cobbled


streets of Dent. From Church Bridge, the


riverside path of the River Dee gave ample opportuni­ ty to look at the many spring flowers. The route continued along the Dalesway to Rash Bridge and past the old watermill and chapel. The group continued over


the hill to Abbotsholm and the River Rawthey, which was spectacular from the narrow bridge, and at Birks Mill, further on, on its way


to join the Lune. The boys of Sedbergh School were playing cricket matches, and the walk ended at Sed­ bergh church. Over 50 different flowers


were numbered, including bistort, yellow comfrey and late primroses. One member spotted an oxslip. A pair of oyster catchers flew around the walkers, obviously pro­ tecting a nest. A dead badger lay at the


side of the road, and a pip­ istrelle bat was placed away from danger on the road. The walk, not strenuous,


took place in fine, cloudy but windless weather.


Largest number of store livestock for some time


THE largest number of stores in a very long time were forward at Clitheroe Auction Mart’s fort­ nightly sale of store cattle, ewes


and lambs.Young store bulls also contin­ ued the good demand of recent weeks, as did strong steers and


heifers. The numbers a t Monday's sale


of prime c a ttle, prime sheep and calves had increased ag a in . The heifer tra d e was somewhat more variable, with th e bes t doing very nicely and making good returns, if bought as stores, while th e plainer


sor ts were a b i t hsirder to place. Bulls: Premium bulls made to


115p/kg (average 112p/kg), prime to 107p (103.78p), commercial to 96p (89.87p).


105p (lOOp). commercial to 87p (85.31p). Heifers: Prime heifers made to 107p (96.78p), commercial to 90p


Steers: Prime steers made to


se.ason lambs, prime hoggs and cast sheep were down on last week, but the trade was. in reali­ ty, very similar. Now season Iambs: Light


(82.27p). The .averages in the sale of new


! .'"'f '


lambs made to 113.33p (105.77p). standard to 143.06p (il8.26p). medium to 125.3p (120.Gp), hc,avy to 11 Op. Prime hoggs: Light to 90.48p


(OO.lGp). standard to 94.93p (91.24p), medium to 91.14p (83.85p). hea'vy to 90.53p (88.7p). Cast ewes to £34.50 per hc,ad.
