CLITHEROE Ladies’ Squash Club have been crowned Lancashire champions. The quintet scooped the Lancashire Ladies’


Squash League after a rollercoaster season. However, they had to wait until the final


day of the season to clinch top spot. Just nine points separated them from run­


ners-up Rochdale, with Springfields a further four points back.


But to say Clitheroe ended the 20-game sea­


son on 260 points tells its.own story. Any one of the three sides could have


snatched the title on the final day, but Clitheroe held their nerve to emerge tri­ umphant for the first time.

five years ago, but since then, the league has been cut to just one league. And not only that, but the closure of

IN the beginning of the Dark Ages, the warlords of England are brutally kept in line by the Irish King Donnchadh (David O'Hara). Tristan (James Franco) has


grown up hating the Irish for killing his family and has made a strong allegiance to father figure Lord Marke (Rufus Sewell), while Isolde (Sophia Myles), Donnchadh's daughter, has grown up under her fa th e r ’s thumb. After a fierce battle that leaves T ristan near death, he washes up on Irish soil and is nursed secretly back to health by Isolde, who tells him she’s some­ one else. The two fall madly in love, but


Tristan must return to England before he is discovered. Mean­ while, Donnchadh decides to stage a tournament between all the champions of England, with his daughter as the prize. Tristan ends up winning the princess' hand for Lord Marke, but is hor­ rified to find out she is his own true love. Tristan and Isolde must now

Early start, but worth it!


LAST Wednesday a t 3 a.m. I was standing outside the Empo­ rium, not for a drink I may add, but to rendezvous with my lift to Liverpool Airport for the 8 a.m. plane to Paris. I was off to Sancerre to visit


the famous Domaines of Pascal Jolivet, one of the youngest and most dynamic in the Loire Val­ ley, specialising in the wines of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume, which have very quickly gaine. The white wines, all from the


sau’vignon blanc grape, are made in their new gravity-fed winery (no need for pumping wines around) so a very gentle way to make wine. The natural juices are ferment­


ed with cool temperature rather than cold and are left on their lees for four to six months to


achieve subtle, but complex aro­ mas. There are four old vine­ yards in Sancerre, either growing on calcareous clay or limestone, and across the r iver is the Domaine “La Loge Aux Moines” the oldest vineyard in Pouilly- Fume, founded by Benedictine monks in the 11th Century. The wines I would recommend


to start with are the village wines PASCAL JOLIVET SANCERRE a t £11.69 or the POUILLY- FUME at £11.49. Both these delicious wines are


very clean and pure with aromas of lemons and floral notes with a round, creamy tex tu re and a fresh balancing acidity (I found the Fume to have more mineral qualities). Both are perfect with fresh asparagus, fish or chicken dishes.
