PORTUGAL is the ninth largest producer of wine in the world, but try to name 10 of the country's wines. You might start with


Mateus Rose, (which is now re-packaged) and then port and then you may stumble. Even the grape varieties are not those most consumers: know, but they are seri­ ously good-quality wines and i t is worth trying a few. From the north, in


the Minho area, is where Vinho Verde comes from. A wine light in alcohol with a slight spritz and always bone dry. Other white wines to


salty and nutty Malva- sia or' the aromatic Alvarhino; to name but a few.


?r The red'wines are'no different, with a pletho­ ra of new grape vari­ eties to get your tongue round (in pronunciation and literally). Among my favourites are the Tinta Roriz, from the Douro, but also called Aragones in the south­ ern Alentejo region. It

of the Dao region, espe­ cially th a t of Quinta dos Roques, can always he relied upon. The sin­ gle grape varieties are a special

Alfrocheiro Preto is especially alluring, another crimson wine with big body and long pers istent a fte rta s te with hints of new-toast­ ed oak casks. So do try some of

"Singin’ In The Rain " Opera House, Manchester


THERE was no escape at the Opera House, Man­ chester. Some of the audience had scurried along rain­


swept pavements, only to he hit again with rain coming down in stairrods from the stage.


* Fortunately the management had provided.some


plastic protection for those in the first few rows, but the cast had a marvellous time bringing to life ah icon of the screen musicals — the famous Gene Kelly dance routine. The finale of this show was spectacular and huge


fun. The company captured the essential flavour of


those grand days when the silent screen was being converted to talkies. . I t was a frothy, light evening's entertainment with plenty of pleasant musical numbers - and some


great dancing. Australian Jacqui Rae dragged every b it of


humour from the character Lina Lamont who was having more than a little difficulty trying to contin­ ue a career in talkies with a voice like a quarry stone crusher. Darren Bennett, as Don Lockwood, the hand­


some hero, maybe lacked the sparkle,, but neverthe­ less gave a perfectly competent performance and was easy on the ear.

THE rain stayed away as St Leonard's CE School, Langho, held its annual

activities, including face painting, a coconut shy, beat the keeper competi­ tion, rainbow stalls and a celebrity treasure hunt. During the event, Brewster Bear


released the balloons for the balloon race and it is hoped to beat last year's


record,when one of the balloons ended up in Norway. The'evening was rounded off with


dancing, provided by the Zoe Taylor School of Dance, from Blackburn. I t is hoped that the event, arranged


by the School Family Association, will have raised between £500 and £600. Pictured are pupils with balloons


they were preparing to release. . (J050702/10/b)


Naturalists team up with Nelson group for latest trip


MEMBERS of Clitheroe Naturalists'


| Society shared their latest walk with a team from Nelson Naturalists. The two groups met in Worsthome,


walking via Deerpark Road to Towne- ley Park. At the deer pond nature


| reserve, a heron, mallard ducks, Cana­ da geese and baby frogs were all logged. The party, which included 21 mem­


bers of Clitheroe Naturalists’ Society, then followed the River Calder to Cliviger Mill Bridge, before trekking across field paths to Mereclough, where Foxstones Bridge was crossed to reach Rock Water and then Hurst-


| wood. The group skirted the wood and


reservoir to pick up the ancient pack- horse track to return to Worsthorne. On the walk, 64 flower species were


recorded and other birds noted includ­ ed a spotted flycatcher, kestrel and house martins. Walk leaders Gloria Booth and Brenda Jones were thanked on behalf of the party by Mr Bernard Warren. The society's next walk is in Mal­


ham on August 3rd and will be fol­ lowed on August 17th by a visit to Troutbeck. Both trips, which meet at 9-30 a.m. at Clitheroe Interchange, are also suitable for non-walkers. To book places, telephone 01200 •
