On the trail of Easter fun


A VISIT from the Easter Bunny might have the kids hopping with excitement - but unfortunately for their parents, that excitement does not last for the whole of the Easter


holidays. And very often, the eggs that the Bunny


delivers do not last for the holidays either. But there are things to do apart from


eat chocolate at Easter - although choco­ late does crop up in some of the activities. One way of getting the children to burn


off some of the calories from the chocolate they have been guzzling is through an Easter egg hunt. Give them clues, or stick clues around


the house and garden - and spread them around as much as possible so lots of ener­ gy is used trying to find them. And if you’re trying to keep chocolate to


a minimum for the children, just call it an Easter Hunt and make some of the hidden treasures fluffy little Easter bunnies and chicks instead of Easter eggs. As well as decorating Easter eggs - there


are plenty of decorating kits in the shops - or trying out some of the many Easter activities that local councils have on offer, the National Trust has a whole host of activities planned at more than 180 hous-

es, gardens and countryside properties across the country. The Easter events, which run until April 3rd, include egg-and-spoon races, egg rolling and Easter bonnet-mak­ ing. The Trust guarantees that there are plen­


ty of non-chocolate-related activities on offer.


Trusty the Hedgehog, the Trust’s chil­


dren’s mascot, has been hard at work hiding clues and treats for children to find on East­ er egg trails at many properties. Despite all the Easter fun on offer, most


parents have to face the fact that the main focus of the holiday will still be chocolate. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing,


says dietician Dr Frankie Phillips of the British Dietetic Association. “Parents want to make sure children get


the message that eating chocolate is a treat they can have, and it’s not bad,” she says. “But they should try to buy their children


just a small Easter egg, as they’re likely to be getting more than one from other rela­ tives and friends.” Dr Phillips says plain chocolate eggs con­


tain more anti-oxidants, which are thought to help prevent problems like heart disease, cancer and strokes, but there is some milk in milk chocolate eggs, which is also good. She adds: “I ’m not trying to say choco­


late’s a really healthy food, as i t’s not good to consume large amounts over a long peri­ od, but i t’s not a bad thing to have as a treat.”

Clitheroe Advertiser & Times, March 24th, 2005 19 How to camp and be comfortable


FOR many people, the only experi­ ence they have of camping dates from childhood when they went with the Guides or Scouts to spend a week under canvas in some obscure, rural location.


involve a draughty tent that was difficult to erect, too small for the number of occupants and leaked into the bargain. That it rained for the whole week


goes almost without saying and a muddy camp site, smoky fires and a chilly wind add to a memory of a far- from-ideal break. For those with similar memories,


the idea of spending a whole holi­ day under canvas is something of a nightmare. However, they are urged most sincerely to reconsider. Modern day camping is a com­ pletely different matter. To begin with, the modern tent,


be it large or small, is designed to accommodate a specific number of people in comfort. I t is easy to erect, and fold away, light to carry, simple to maintain and (usually) leak proof. Tents are made for back packers,


cyclists, motor cyclists and those touring in a car. Frame tents can accommodate


up to eight or more in comfort, with separate internal "rooms" for sleep­ ing, extensions for kitchen and bathroom and also for extra sleep­ ing accommodation. Accessories and equipment for camping have developed alongside


- The writer’s memories of this W '\


the tents, so that all home comforts are available.


There are sink units, cookers


complete with oven and grill, show­ er and bathing units, comfortable tables and chairs, lighting equip­ ment, camp beds as comfortable as those you have at home and sleep­ ing bags as light and warm as swan’s-down. However, camping is only as good


as the site you camp on and those childhood memories of muddy fields, unpleasant communal wash houses, etc., are still enough to put you off. Fortunately, most camp sites


today reflect our advanced ideas of comfort and hygiene. Sites are well drained and often provided with specially-surfaced standing for the tents, and power cables for lighting. Communal shower and bathing


areas are always to be found and these days hot water is almost an automatic provision. Shops and stores specialising in


tents and camping equipment are to be found in most high streets.


They stock not only tents and equipment, but also all the other accessories and clothing necessary for a comfortable and enjoyable holiday under canvas. There are static camp sites all


over Europe where you can take up residence in an already erected tent complete with everything you need. This at least gives you an idea of what you can expect and, if you like it (most people do) you can, on returning home, start to acquire all you will need for your next camping holiday. Camping offers freedom, fresh


air, a constant change of scene and the chance to enjoy the landscape of your choice, far from traffic, shops and all the other commercial aspects of a modern holiday. And by joining the Camping and


Caravanning Club you will be able to access all the information you could possibly need on routes, sites and suitable areas to visit. The Camping and Caravanning


Club can be contacted on 02476 694995.
