iioappointmentnecessary- a hit


VETERAN broadcaster Sir Jimmy Young was a welcome guest at a literary lunch held


at Mytton Fold Hotel, Langho. Organised by Rose Counties Literary Events, the


lunch was a sell-out success, attended by 277 peo- ple.


Crooner turned radio presenter Sir Jimmy had a 50-


year career with the BBC, hosting his lunchtime slot on Radio 2 - affectionately known as “the JY prog”-


for 28 years. I t came to a controversial end last year, with the


'•i


broadcaster telling his army of listeners that he did not want to go, but had been given no choice. Yet his popularity has not dwindled and his new book, looking back on his eventful life, is set. to be a


Christmas bestseller. He was kept busy signing copies at the lunch before


entertaining the appreciative audience. Rather than give a talk, he asked for a less formal “in conversation


with” format. - The other half of the conversation was Mrs Joan


Laprell, who organises the literary events with Mr and Mrs Malcolm and Karen Weaving. “I tried to take a leaf out of Michael Parkinson’s


book,” said Mrs Laprell. “I asked short questions and hoped he would give long answers, which he did. It seemed to work very well and Sir Jimmy was excel­


lent.” He also took questions from the floor and seemed


willing and able to speak on any subject under the sun. The next Rose Counties Literary Event takes place

inquest was opened e purposes of identifi-


top hotels. Mytton Fold Hotel, at Langho, recently cele­


brated its 21st birthday and.the programme will chart its transition from a working farm to one of the area’s most prestigious venues.


THE p resentation of new cycle racks marked the com­ pletion of a £70,000 project to establish a new play area on Royal land at Dunsop Bridge. The village’s Jubilee Play


Area, next to Thomeyholme RC School, is the result of a two- year fund-raising campaign by villagers. Now it has three new cycle


racks thanks to Ribble Valley Borough Council, which also donated cash to the scheme. The new facility is a focal


point for the village and marked the Queen’s Golden Jubilee. The Queen owns much of the


land in and around Dunsop Bridge, including where the play area is sited. The project has provided tod­


dler and junior play facilities, a hard-surfaced area where young people can use bikes, skates or skateboards away from the school and a picnic area for use by Dunsop Bridge families and the growing number of visitors to the area.


and vice-chairman of council’s Community Committee, said: “Dunsop Bridge is a small rural village and the new recreational facilities are vital for the physi­ cal, educational and social wel­ fare of local young people. "Dunsop Bridge villagers are


to be congratulated for working so hard to bring the play area to fruition and Ribble Valley Council is pleased to have con­ tributed three cycle racks to fur­ ther enhance this superb facili­ ty.” In 1992, Sir Ranulph Fiennes


unveiled the 100,000th phone box in the UK in Dunsop Bridge, after Ordnance Survey declared the village to be at the exact centre of the kingdom. The Queen has also expressed


a wish to retire to her estate in the picturesque Trough of Bow- land, where Dunsop Bridge is


situated. Our picture shows villagers and their children receiving the
