INGHAM - BERRY


A honeymoon in the Lake District fol­ lowed the wedding of Miss Anne Elizabeth Berry and Mr Jona­ than David Ingham at the Moorcock Inn,


Waddington. Miss Berry, who works


for Chatburn butcher Mr Roy Porter, is the daughter of Mr and Mrs S. E. Berry, of Teewood Farmhouse, Wadding­


ton. The bridegroom, a


contractors' site foreman at Castle Cement, is the son of Mr and Mrs J. C. Ingham, of Venture Villa East, Chatburn. Given away by her


father, Miss Berry wore an ivory satin gown, which had sequin and pearl detailing, and she carried an autumnal teardrop-shaped bou­


quet. She was attended by


maid of honour Miss J. Berry, who wore a bur­ gundy satin dress, and friends Miss Sarah Swar- brick and Miss Hazel Swarbrick, whose gowns were of ivory satin and tulle, decorated with sequins and pearls. They carried flower baskets, while Miss J. Berry's bouquet was similar to the bride's. Best man was Mr R.


Pallister. The couple are to live


in Chatburn. Photo: Pyes of Clith-


ON behalf of the 37 peo­ ple who recently spent a week exploring the Clitheroe area with our company, I would like to express our thanks to all who made our holiday such a success. We organise package


holidays with a differ­ ence for people with touring caravans or motorhomes and a regu­ lar customer said our Centre of the Kingdom programme was one of our best. This, I feel, was in part due to the warmth of the welcome and the splendid service given by businesses, visi­ tor attractions and vol­ untary groups. Our week got off to a


good start thanks to the welcome by managers at the Camping and Cara-


| vanning Club at Edis- ford. Bridge. The pro­ gramme included a splendid meal and a lovely impromptu ser­ vice at St Paul's Church, Low Moor, and meals at the Calf's Head, Worston, the Aspinall Arms, Mitton and fur­ ther afield. We also visited Whal-


ley Parish Church, were entertained on a ghost, murder and mystery walk, saw the Corona­ tion Gardens at Waddington, caught a glimpse of Salthill Quar­ ry Nature Trail and travelled to sites in Padiham, Carlisle and Lancaster. We walked the nature trail at Brungerley Park and ended the week with vis­ its to Clitheroe's impres­ sive museum and the North West Sound


Archive. Throughout we were


well served by Hodson's of Gisburn who provid­ ed us with first-class


coaches and drivers. The holiday was just


one of more than 20 our company has arranged this year in this country and abroad, and a most enjoyable one. Thank


you all again. . SYLVIA THOMPSON, '

Planning


is needed DAVID FOSTER'S im­ moderate reaction to our ideas for Barrow, as reported in your October 4th edition, makes good reading. Mr Foster has been trying for some years to bring his own land forward for devel­ opment. Your piece the week


before gave a fair synop­ sis of what we have put


forward, e.g.: • The Enterprise


Park exists and will be developed with jobs for more than 3,000 employ­


ees. • Unless there is some


real planning, the Park will generate lots of car traffic and provide no benefits for Barrow. • We have proposed


that by working togeth­ er all the stakeholders, including the residents, the new employers , the local authority and oth­ ers, could try to find a mutually beneficial way forward. • To help with this we


have proposed that a joint working party could be set up with rep­ resentatives of all con­ cerned. • We have also pro­


posed that land that might be affected could be vested in a Communi­ ty Land Trust to ensure fair distribution of any benefits, including cross subsidies for affordable housing for local people,


improved transport facil­


ities, safer roads and other desirable features of a properly balanced community. You may remember that we suggested this


approach before, blit were shouted down. We still believe that the arguments for trying to be positive about the future of Barrow are overwhelming. We are committed to a dialogue with all the


stakeholders and we hope for a reasonable


debate about all the issues between everyone concerned. That is why we have published our preliminary proposals at this early stage in the processes that will even­ tually lead to a new Local Plan for Ribble Valley.

Edisford


location? I READ with interest Julie Frankland's piece


about the possibility of siting the proposed new community cultural cen­ tre on the present car park of the market. I am all in favour of


this new centre, which I believe will enhance the town and bring visitors to it. However, I am not in favour of depriving the market of its car park. The traders need this facility for their cus­ tomers, some of whom, like myself, are unable to carry heavy loads of shopping any distance, and there is precious lit­ tle parking anywhere else nearby. Last week, I parked in


the car park at the Edis­ ford Road end of town. In all that vast car park, there were no more than


a handful of'cars. Why


not put the centre there? It would then have its own ready-made car park for patrons and there would still be plen­ ty left over for visitors to the river or the sports centre, swimming pool, etc.


R. L. CARTER. Bottle top


recycling I HAVE found Sandy Lane, Barrowford. So what, readers will


ask. A year ago the. Adver­


tiser and Times kindly published an inquiry about clubs or societies which collected milk bot­ tle tops for charity recy­


cling. No one did, in spite of


many avenues being explored. Until, at last, someone suggested the Barrowford address and I found it. But the gen­ tleman there no longer collected them. He did, however,


inform me that there is a container on the car park of ASDA, Colne. Milk bottle tops and similar materials are recycled and the pro­ ceeds go towards train­ ing for Guide Dogs for the Blind. This is such a worthy


cause and I hope this information will be of interest to those who save milk bottle tops for recycling.

Young ones


to rescue COULD I, through the Clitheroe Advertiser and Times, thank the three boys who helped me up when I fell badly in


Seedall Avenue. I am already disabled


so they helped to get me up, gave me my stick


j and knocked on my door to get help. Thank you lads. You have proved that not all young ones


are bad.

Dermal fillers such as Collagen or Restylane will fill out wrinkles, lines and even facial scars, giving a softer, more youthful appearance. Lips can be reshaped to give you a fuller, more sensual mouth. The results are instant and the treatment is


Jiti a very quick!


Thread veins are treated with a combination o f sclerotherapy and light laser. The veins fade gradually over the next few weeks and the final result is far better than with any other kind o f thread vein treatment. Parkview Private Clinic is the only clinic in the UK able to offer this combination treatment. Just imagine being able to wear shorts on holiday next year without feeling self-


conscious!


Unwanted facial or body hair can be very unsightly. The Ellipse IPL system is the most up to date form o f treatment for unwanted hair. It is quicker, gentler, more effective and efficient than electrolysis or laser hair removal and is suitable for both men and women. There are no needles involved so the treatment is not


painful. .' j ' 1 ,,' J ■ *V>‘1. •'■--.<■ 'r' \ *,

Dull stressed skin tends to look older because any lines or wrinkles look more pronounced. AHA skin peels are an excellent alternative to laser skin resurfacing, the results are often as good as laser and the recovery time is minimal. Please do not contuse this treatment with those offered by beamy salons as the formula used at Park View Private Clinics can only be applied by doctors or registered nurses who have undertaken special training.

Ugly head


of truth SINCE the council has decided to ignore the people of Clitheroe, I would just like one answer from the axemen. Where are the rest of


the trees situated out of the original 41? As only half dwell on the mound, where are


the rest? This was my question


to Mr Jagger at the


start, and I still do not know. His answer was that of over 400 trees in the grounds, this was just the start. His great plan is that most of the trees were planted at the same time, so all are going to die at the same time. So let's chop them


down nowl The great plan was


held up because someone


spoke out. Now all of a sudden


the trees are diseased. How peculiar! We should have all the trees in Clitheroe checked for this potential environ­ mental disaster! This is why they do


not want public consul­ tation -


the truth might


raise its ugly head. There is all this beat­


ing of chests and puffing and strutting when someone dares to ques­ tion them - the testos­ terone must be a b io ­ hazard in the council


offices. Be warned, Clitheroe,


these men are running your town — or should it be "ruining."

Enjoyable evening of speeches


a n entertaining eve­ ning was enjoyed by members and guests of Clitheroe Speak­


ers’ Club.. President Mr John


Adey welcomed those present, including area president Mr David Smith, of Castle Speak­ ers’ Club, Blackburn. The chairman for the


evening, Mrs Ada Gar­ ner, opened the pro­ gramme, which included a speech by Mr John Holland entitled "The Fake Climbers Show," a speech specifically con-


| centrating on the use of gestures and a speech by Mr Dennis Ogden from the advanced manual of impromptu speech. His speech was evaluated by Mrs Penny Ogden. Mr Ogden then chose


a speech from the oppo­ site end of the manual, entitled "They never told me it was going to be like this." Given a choice of three titles, Mr Ogden had just 10 minutes to prepare and deliver his


speech. Topics chairman Mrs


Gene Holmes introduced the theme "Imagine if


you had this job." Mr Gordon Taylor was a cir­


cus master, Mr Mike


Bradley a fish and chip shop owner, Mr David Smith a gamekeeper, Mr Derrick Holmes a train driver and Mrs Ogden a fortune teller. In evaluat­ ing, Mrs Madeline Adey commended Mrs Holm­ es on her choice of topics, particularly as all the participants managed the three minutes req­ uested of them. The general evaluator thanked everyone for


taking part and area president Mr Smith thanked all present for the friendly welcome he


had received. The club meets on the


first and third Mondays of the month at the Young Farmers' Club, next to the auction mart at 7-30 p.m. For more information, contact Mrs Garner, 01200 424206.


Warning over stone thieves


PO L IC E are urging local people to keep an eye out for thieves spe­ cialising in ornamental


stonework. Seven decorative stone


1 balls worth £1,750 were taken from Huntroyde and two worth £100 from a house at Wiswell over the weekend. Numerous stone flags


and similar items have also been stolen in recent


weeks.


Warm welcome for pastors from Romanian church


M E M B E R S o f Clitheroe Communi­


ty Church have fur­ ther extended the


Ribble Valley's East­ ern European con­


nections. Having founded a


branch of their church in the Romanian town of Rasnov, they welcomed its current pastors, hus-


Clitheroe. The couple's two-week


stay involved meeting local church members, as well as trips to Haworth, Settle and York. They


stayed at the home of Clitheroe pastor Mr Brian Clark.


Through an American


missionary friend based in Germany, Mr Clark and his 100-strong flock, which meets at the King Centre, Millthorn Aven­


ue, helped to launch the Rasnov church in 1992. Since then, he and vari­ ous church members have made twice yearly visits to Rasnov.
