AN early morning telephone call from Las Vegas began a day to remember for Clitheroe's Dr Bashair and Mrs Deana Khan, when the caller announced: "I 1 would like to ask for the hand of your beautiful daughter in mar­ riage." ,


On a short break from hectic .


schedules in their Newcastle hospi­ tals, daughter Dr Helen Khan, a senior house officer, and her fiance, Dr Philip Godfrey, a registrar in anaesthetics, broke the news of their engagement to her overjoyed parents. In true romantic tradition, Dr God­


frey proposed at the top of Las Vegas's Eiffel Tower, before presenting her with a one-carat diamond ring in a Tiffany setting and seeking the blessing of his


future in-laws. Proud father Dr Khan says: "This

lan Cancer Relief charity received a cheque for nearly £2,000 on Friday, raised by children from Brookside Primary School, Clitheroe. Headteacher Mr Graham Claydon said:


“Years 4 to 6 were sponsored to colour blank flags and Years 7 to 11 had to learn and recognise 20 different flags.” The kind-hearted pupils also took in


fruit, vegetables and tins of food to be dis­ tributed for harvest.


Canon Jim Duxbury gave a fascinating


talk to the youngsters about the festival. “It was a very joyful morning with a lot


of parents present”, added Mr Claydon. The school which has raised money for


Christie’s Hospital in Manchester and the NSPCC in the past, hopes to raise more money for a different charity next year. Mr Claydon is pictured (left) presenting


the cheque to fund-raising manager for Macmillan Cancer Relief Louise Stimson, with Canon Duxbury along with pupils Oliver Murray, Jack Harris and Madeleine Paige. (B101003/1)


Tot’s tears for his pet rabbit killed by dogs


continued-from page 1 Mrs Binks reported the


matter to the police and to the council, but also wants to warn other parents and pet owners in the area. “Our biggest fear is that


if the children are out playing with the rabbits when these dogs appear, they could be attacked too,” said Mrs Binks. Mr James Russell,


Environmental Health Manager at Ribble Valley Borough Council, said his dog wardens were aware of the incidents, and had descriptions of the dogs. They would make every


free, Mr Russell promised. ; He said the council would always respond to reports of dogs roaming loose. However, with the limit­


ed resources available he could not always guaran­ tee an immediate response. “We will respond as


quickly as we can and we will try to pick up dogs roaming free and trace their owners,” he said. But he added th a t if


effort to pick them up if they were found roaming


dogs were in the act of destroying property or attacking pets, it was a police matter and the resi­ dents should send for the police immediately. “Of course, we will


assist the police in trying to trace the dogs and their owners. “Unfortunately, it is a


matter of proving which dogs are responsible,” said Mr Russell. In the meantime, Mrs


Binks is urging residents in the Edisford Road area to be on their guard. Anyone who sees these


or other dogs roaming free should report it to the council on 01200 414464. If loose dogs are seen


attacking property or other animals, call the police immediately on 01200 443344 or in an emergency dial 999.

Annual bonfire set to roar!


FINAL preparations are being made for Clitheroe’s spectacular annual bonfire. The event, including the usual fireworks display,


will be on Saturday, November 1st. As usual it is being organised by the area’s two Rotary clubs, the Clitheroe Lions Club and Clitheroe


Rotaract. The quartet of service-to-the-community organi­


sations has put on the fire for many years. Numerous experienced businessmen are involved and ways have been found to solve the insurance problems which have affected similar events in other parts of the country. A spokesman said: “We have again been supported


by Castle Cement and Ultraframe, who have donated fireworks and we much appreciate their help.” The fire will be lit at 7 p. m. on November 1st.


Charity shop will open with bargains for all


A NEW charity shop opened in Clitheroe this week - but for


one week only. The Jigsaw Pantry, in Moor Lane, has been converted to a


bargain hunters’ bazaar, all this week, running until Satur­


day. Plans are in hand to reopen the Jigsaw Pantry as a tradi­


tional delicattessen, but money is.needed to buy essential


equipment. This week volunteers have been busy raising that money by selling books, clothes and all manner of bric-a-brac from


the premises. If the fund-raiser is a success, it could be repeated for a


week in November. Jigsaw Pantry is part of the Trinity Community Partner­


ship, which celebrates 40 years of work in the community this year. The pantry itself started in 1991 in the Trinity Centre as a


vegetarian and wholefood cafe, training people with disabili­ ties, predominantly learning disabilities. Since then it has expanded and now operates from four-


sites in Clitheroe, Haslingden, Acccrington and Haworth, plus an offsite catering business. Jigsaw Pantry now trains people in catering, food hygiene


and many other workplace and social skills so that they can become a productive and valued part of the workforce.

Young farmers set their sights on being ‘the best of British’


HOPING that they prove to be "the best of British” are three members of Clitheroe Young Farmers' Club. They are travelling to


ingredients and each competitor has to supply costings and details of nutritional qualities. The trio have already success­


Stoneleigh at the weekend to compete in the national finals of a cookery competition. James Spurgeon, Grace Thom-


ber and Richard Whitwell have a budget of just £10 each to create four dishes, including a dessert and main course with the theme "Best of British." Sponsor Tesco has provided the vouchers for the


fully competed several rounds. Competition rules state that the team must include a boy, girl and a junior member aged 16 years or under. , Pictured from the left is Richard Whitwell (15), James Spurgeon, Grace. Thornber and duty manager Cheryl Walsh at the Tesco store in Clitheroe. (K131003/8)
