Origami Visitors from Down- ham, Billingtoii and Langho WIs were welcomed to Pendleton WI by president Mrs Sue Kirk. Guest speaker Mr Steven Watson told his au­ dience of his inter­ est in origami, the ancient Japanese art of paper fold­ ing. Members were surprised at the in­ tricate work dem­ onstrated by some of his examples. Everyone was then given the opportu­ nity to follow Mr Watson’s instruc­ tions and made a stnall box complete with lid, simply by folding paper. Miss G. Broom’s expres­ sion of thanks was up to her usual high standard.

B. Charlson. READ


Parish council Foul language from footballers and traffic problems were just two of the thorny issues in the sides of Read residents which were discussed at the parish council meeting. The first issue was from resi­ dents of St John’s Close regarding the state of their road and footpath. They had contacted LCC and were told that the potholes and state of the road did not warrant re­ pair at the moment. Coun. John Hill advised them to contact their LCC representative Al­ bert Atkinson and Read Parish Coun­ cil would give them full support. Resi­ dents from Nowell Grove stated that the cars parked all day on there and on both sides of Straits Lane above the local school were causing many problems, p ar ­ ticularly when cars were turning into Straits Lane. It was suggested the par­ ish council consider double yellow lines to help alleviate the problem. A resi­ dent whose child will have to pay £2 bus fare daily in order to attend the secondary school of their choice was not happy with the state of affairs and LCC’s reply to this matter. The nearest school where the child would qualify for free travel was over six miles away from Read, but the


just over four miles away. Coun. Hill promised to look into the problem. A resident whose property is adja­ cent to the football field on the rec­ reation ground was distressed as balls keep being kicked into her garden when Read United FC have a game. It was happening during the warm up before the match when players were shooting into the goal area. Chair­ man of Read Unit­ ed, who attended the meeting, apolo­ gised for the upset caused and prom­ ised to look into the matter. He stated that he had asked the players to use


secondary school of their choice is only


the far end of the pitch, away from the houses, when having a kickabout. Other members of the public com­ plained about the [jersistent use of profane language used by players from both teams during matches. The chairman promised to look into this. Two resi­ dents who are al­ lotment holders ex­ pressed their thanks to two men from the village who had helped them deal with the problem of the exploding rab­ bit population.


RIBCHESTER Swanny


foreigner! Along with those who gathered- from around the world for the 19th Ribchester Festival of Music and Arts, a black swan (from Australia) arrived on the River Rib- ble and joined the lonely Trumpeter Swan (from the Western seaboard of Canada). Both may have escaped from captivity, but the Trumpeter has settled in Ribches­ ter all year round for several years. You can tell the dif­ ference from native white swans as the Trumpeter has a black bill and when it calls you can hear the trumpet sound­ ing. Perhaps they heard what an ex­ cellent programme the festival is offer­ ing, starting with South American tango music.


Garden party The annual garden party will take place in the rectory garden on Sunday, July 10th from 1 to 4 p.m. with home­ made cakes, straw­ berries and cream, and all kinds of amusements and stalls. St Christo­ pher’s Jazz Band and the Ribchester Morris Dancers will be performing and the Field Day Queen and her at­ tetendants will at­


nd. Music Makers


The Music Makers, St Wilfrid’s choir, gave a “musical enter­ tainment” to a ca­ pacity audience at Ribchester Sports and Social Centre with songs covering all four seasons and a delightful blend of old favourites and unfamiliar songs from the shows. The programme, which was ably in­ troduced by Colin Cunliffe, was per­ formed with polish and panache by the ensemble and the audience was encouraged to par-


ticipate. Clare Lev- ick, who has taken over as director of the choir from Michael Kirby, who is now studying at Cambridge, is to be congratulated on the fine standard that the choir and the various soloists achieved through­ out the evening.


Stan the van A new service pro­ vided by the local councils in conjunc­ tion with Lanca­ shire County Coun­ cil, paid a vist to Ribchester to bring the public services closer to local peo­ ple. The van was staffed by members of the LCC, who delivered leaflets to houses in the vil­ lage, or you could simply walk in, talk to the helpful staff, and pick up leaf­ lets that might give practical help, such as the benefits that are available if you are sick or disabled, how to get a free home fire safety check, and tips on making your home safe against bur­ glars.


The parish notice board will advertise the next visit.


Ribcaged After a lapse of sev­ eral months, Rib­ caged Productions has just issued its latest newsletter to let the public know how the local stage company’s plans are developing in an exciting new di­ rection.
