that fish and chips are unhealthy are not true. I don’t mean that fish and chips is the new health food, but I believe that in modera­ tion and as part of a healthy diet it is the best takeaway on the high street.” For the past two years running,


Whalley-Road Chippy has been voted North West runner-up in the national Perfect Portion Awards. Since they rely on a public online vote, Aldo did exceptionally well


to beat so many bigger outlets in bigger towns and cities. Now his chippy - established in 1896 - is among the first in the country to have the nutritional value of its food professionally analysed. “We always aim to buy the best


produce available on the market. If it’s not top quality, we don’t sell it,” said Aldo. “We have recently secured sup­


plies of even better cod and had­ dock and in a couple of weeks, from mid-July, the new potatoes season will start and for a few weeks you’ll be able to enjoy very sweet chips, with characteristic

BEE KEEPER: Dave Rayner holds the first batch of 2010 honey, (s)


A RIBBLE Valley bee-keeper has placed a quota of two jars of honey per customer following unprec­ edented demand from local hay fever sufferers. Dave Rayner, who runs Ribbles-


dale Honey, based at Bashall Barn, has been inundated with requests with his first batch of 2010 honey selling out in just two days. This year’s dry June has resulted


in a high pollen count that is prov­ ing particularly problematic for hay fever sufferers.. Sourcing and eating honey from


local bees has been a long estab­ lished traditional remedy for hay fever. It is believed that by eating honey produced by local bees, hay fever sufferers can desensitise their immune system to local pollens. Setting up his business last year,


Dave’s production of honey was seriously hampered by the wet weather. This year he hopes to fare better and has spent the last 12 months building up his stock of hives and bees. Harry Backhouse, who farms organically in Bashall Eaves, said:


“We were delighted when Dave asked if we could have some of his hives on our farm - it compliments our organic philosophy and our green credentials perfectly.” Simon Barnes, managing direc­


tor of Bashall Bam, said “Dave is a superb champion for bee keeping and we are looking forward once again to having his demonstration bee hive installed in our bar this summer. “Getting up close to 60,000 bees


through a glass screen causes quite astir!” '

When Marion left school her father, Mark Knight, who was ■ a master butcher, had arranged for her to go into the mill, but she hated the noise and refused to go back af­ ter a very brief introduction to the industry. Asa result he told her she would


have to work for him instead, which she did for many years, helping m • the shop and on the market stall he had on Blackburn’s then famous
