ley Borough Council's Community Committee agreed that 17 bins should be installed at nine differ­ ent sites, including the Edisford picnic area, the Salthill dog walk area and Ribchester's Riverside walk car park. And, taking into consideration comments made by parish councils, the committee also approved a request for bins to be installed at either end of the Sol's Bridge footpath between Billington and Whalley and near to Lang- ho Station. Although a proposal was


that the parishes should not bear any portion of the cost. A suitable budget for all 20 bins is now to be prepared for the coming financial year. Speaking as a regular dog

He added that a financial contribution of around £4,000 for the bins was a bargain and unbelievably cheap, and he went on to say that the council was proba­ bly not spending enough. Coun. John Hill (Simon- stone) suggested that an educational campaign to encourage dog owners to use the bins was needed.

Westminster with Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans.


It is a time for reflection, re­ commitment and regen­ eration. No doubt New Year pledges quickly dis­ sipated into the morning mist, but the opportuni­ ty which the Millennium brings should not be wasted.


At the beginning of the 20th Century cars were a rarity, motorways were yet to be invented and there was no air travel. People did not move around anything


like they do today. Television was years away, and the cinema was more silent than the night. Our TV dinners were unheard of as were the supermarkets which are now deemed so impor­ tant as to be an emer­ gency service. The Com­ mon Market did not exist, never mind the dreadful European Union!

Votes for women had to be hard won and votes at the current coming-of- majority age 18 were 70 years away. Democracy had a foot in the door, but had yet to properly arrive.


This doesn't mean that everything th a t hap­ pened at the beginning of the 20th Century was useless and everything that exists now is the cheese. It doesn't mean that the younger genera­ tion can look back in amusement at the depri­ vations of near past gen­ erations for their chil­ dren's children will judge them by the same stan­ dards.

THERE are well over 100 at the moment, but in future centuries the Millenium mugs given out to Slaidbum, Newton and Dun- sop Bridge children will surely acquire a


rarity value! Open gardens, a barbecue and other


efforts raised the money. And although this was a collaborative effort, each village's identity was carefully recognised with sep­ arate scenes and lettering on the mugs.


An afternoon presentation at Newton


Village Hall saw 80 younger children receive their mugs, and a disco and enter­ tainment was staged in the evening for the older ones. Our picture shows, from the left, Simon

Without the foundation building of the Queen Mother's generation, none of us could enjoy the plentiful fruits of our generation. They had frontiers to cross which were as colossal as the new frontiers which await us now. Discover­ ing this planet was neces­ sary before being able to reach and discover other planets.


Life just 100 years ago, as the Queen Mother was being born, was hard. We have gone from no phones to mobile phones, from the Man in the Moon to a man on the moon, from chalk and board to mouse and key­ board. Many of the real advances have all been made within the last 20 years. The next 20 years will witness even bigger

Differences of opinion do not seem to be heading for an instant solution.
