Clitheroe 422324 (Editorial), 422323 (Advertising), Burnley 422331 (Classified) 30 Clitheroe Advertiser STintes. Thursday, August 18th, 2005 Jayne’s first class success


A CLITHEROE woman has proved she is first class. Former CRGS pupil Jayne


Warburton (pictured), of Green Drive, has been awarded a First Class B.Sc. Hons in Business Studies by Lancaster University’s Management


School. Earlier this month she had


her degree confirmed at a cere­ mony attended by the universi­ ty’s Chancellor, Sir Chris Bon­ ington CBE. During her studies in


Clitheroe, Jayne gained A-lev- els in business studies, general studies, German and maths with statistics. Speaking about her degree success, Jayne said: “I enjoyed the flexibility to study different areas of man­ agement in greater depth, for example management science and accounting and finance.” Prof. Sue Cox, the Dean of


the Management School, said: “We are delighted with Jayne’s


result. “This is an excellent per­


formance and a reward for her hard work. The skills she has developed will be very much in demand as she progresses through her career.” While studying for her


degree, Jayne became the busi­ ness studies course representa­ tive on the staff/student com­ mittee, as well as being a sub­ ject mentor. She is currently working in the customer servic­ es department of Trutex and hopes to gain employment in management consultancy or accountancy.

‘Deal of the century was not exactly the bargain I hoped!


REGULAR readers have enjoyed follow­ ing the adventures of Ribble Valley man Richard Hartley-Parkinson (pictured), now nearing the end of a three-month visit to Sri Lanka, where he is helping with the ongoing relief effort in the wake of the Boxing Day tsunami. The first winner of the Clitheroe


Advertiser’s Tim Procter Memorial Shield - presented annually to our most promising work experience student - Richard (22) plans to pursue a career in journalism on his return to the UK. Here is the latest instalment of his Sri


Lanka diary.


LAST week I said I would be going to Jaffna, but following my couple of days working in Hikkaduwa, I decided to come back and spend three weeks on the building project at Lesana Gama. The work is becoming more bearable


now, although the toilet pits don't appear to be getting any deeper and the sun doesn't seem to be getting any cooler. My body doesn't ache anywhere near as much as it did after the first couple of days and I can feel myself getting fitter. I'll be back in the UK tanned and toned! Money's getting tight now so I decid­


ed to stay in the cheapest accommoda­ tion I could find. At 250 rupees (about £1.70), I thought I had the deal of the century - until I saw my room. The toilet's cistern ran constantly


and the water never filled up, so I couldn't flush i t and if I used it the smell became unbearable no matter how much water I poured down. There were no window panes, just a wire mesh


over a hole in the wall - besides the security issues I was more worried about the mosquitoes that could easily get through and have a feast on my blood. Incidentally, I discovered a very good


trick the other day, whereby if you stretch the skin around where a mos­ quito is biting, it can't retract its sucker


so explodes because it has so much blood inside. Not done it yet! Then there were the cockroaches and


spiders. Behind the guest house, ironi­ cally called the “Lovely”, was the jun­ gle so there were quite strange noises every night, which took some getting


used to. The only thing separating myself


and the trees was a very loud railway, so I was awoken every hour by a pass­ ing express train. Plus, to really wind me up, the bed


was lumpy. I had no sheet and the pil­ lows were like slabs of concrete. It was­ n't the worst place I've slept while in Sri Lanka (that was on a concrete slab in an outside toilet), but it's the longest I've had to put up with such dire con­


ditions. I have since moved into a decent,


clean place above a shop, where the owners are teaching myself and a guy called Robert, from Manchester, how to speak Sinhala. I'm currently working on who, what,


when, where, why, and how, with verbs and the different endings, which I think is quite good and comes in handy on the building site when you are working with the masons and carpenters who can't speak a word of English. This weekend I'm going to the start


of a huge Buddhist religious festival called “Perehara”, which is based in


Kandy. The town's roads are closed at 4 p.m.


for 10 days because of the huge proces­ sion that passes through the town. This will be one of my final injections of cul­


ture.

Rallyi to the cause


FINAL preparations are under way for the popular Ribble Valley Vintage Club Rally, which returns with a bang this weekend. Thousands of club members from all


over the country are gearing themselves up to gather for the annual rally in fields next to the A59, where it crests Sawley Brow. A wide range of vintage vehicles,


ranging from steam engines to commer­ cial lorries and tractors, plus various stalls and refreshments will be on show between Saturday and Sunday. However, until then, organisers are


keeping their fingers crossed for the weather to remain dry. Last year, torrential downpours


caused the cancellation of the historic rally for the first time in its 16-year his­ tory. However, that failed to dampen the spirits of the event organisers who promised this year’s rally would be a success. Pictured are two working steam engines. (.A190604/2f)


Clitheroe Advertiser&Times, Thursday, August 18th, 2005 31 Concert at ITT/

la. “The flute and guitar


complement each other,” said Chris. “We are sure that audiences will enjoy the breadth of music included.” The concert begins at 1


p.m. Tickets can be bought on the door, at a cost of £5 (concessions £2.50). For more informa­ tion, contac t Chris on 01282
