Margaret out to win fruitiest cook title - and a holiday in Turkey!
by Vivien Meath
KEEN amateur chef Mrs Margaret Nierop has set her sights on the title of
"Britain’s Fruitiest Cook". Mrs Nierop, of Bolton-by-Bowland, will
recreate her special recipe fqr "mincemeat, pineapple and banana tart" at the national final of the competition at Denman College in Abingdon on Thursday. The final cook-off is the culmination of an
eight-month search for the best amateur mincemeat and pastry cook in the country. Launched in June, 2002, by the Dried Fruit
Information Service and the National Federa tion of Women's Institutes, the competition is sponsored by Turkish Dried Fruit Exporters, who are offering the overall prizewinner a trip
for two to Turkeyl Not surprisingly, competi tion thus far, and particularly at the various regional finals held around the UK during the autumn, has been fierce. Mrs Nierop will com pete in the national final against seven other regional winners "I am delighted to have won the northern
regional final and am looking forward to the national final," said the Bolton-by-Bowland resident. "It is the first cookery competition I have
ever entered - I've always left it to the rest of my family, my son was on Junior Master Chef a while ago. I've always loved cooking with dried fruit as it is so versatile, tasty and healthy." Her recipe was developed especially for the
competition and based on two other family favourite recipes, which she combined to make this successful dessert.

ONE of the Ribble Valley’s key residents, the Bishop of Blackburn, is to retire in August. The Bishop, the Rt Rev. Alan Chesters,
moved into the area on his appointment in 1989. He will leave upon his retirement in
August. The Bishop’s decision was announced just
a fortnight before he is due to preach the Assheton sermon at Whalley Parish Church. This historic annual event for the church
has seen numerous different preachers, but never a Bishop before. Lord and Lady Clitheroe, whose ancestor
endowed the sermon nearly 400 years ago, will be among the congregation. The service is on Sunday, February 9th, at 10 a. m. The Bishop, who comes from Hudders
field, is 65 and was ordained in 1962 after studying at the universities of Durham and Oxford. He worked in London and then Durham
before being appointed Archdeacon of Hali fax in 1985. Bishop Chesters has made many contacts
with religious and secular communities across the diocese. He has had a particular interest in rural
affairs and education and has spoken nation ally for the Church on both subjects. The Bishop has been involved in several
key debates in the House of Lords. “I am tremendously optimistic about the
diocese because I believe we have a strong commitment to engage for the Christian gospel and that we have in place many of the plans that will enable us to better direct our resources,” says Bishop Chesters. “But it all depends on lay people and cler
gy learning together how to be the Church in the early 21st Century.” The Bishop sees “a real depth of unity and
'Cheshire;-' ? Y'-~" ’ ’Y v" , v - : ■' - ' • The Bishop’s visit to Whalley will be

just a week after the Bishop of Burnley, the Rt Rev. John Goddard, conducts a confirma tion service there on Sunday morning.
