LYTHAM ST ANNES Your FREE Local Community & Business Directory Hello and welcome to the latest edition of LINK Mag! I don’t want to worry you, but Christmas is creeping ever closer! Loads of the many businesses featured in this month’s magazine have incredible seasonal offers on – so make sure you keep your eyes peeled for a bargain or two, although I bet one or two readers will have started their Christmas shopping in January! There’s still loads to do before then though. Remember, remember… erm, what date is it again? Oh yeah, the 5th November. The night when the smell of gunpowder and burning wood fills the air and the crackling of constant fireworks excites people of all ages.

Wrap up warm and head down to one of the many bonfires arranged throughout the Fylde Coast: Cottam Hall in Poulton, Blackpool Cricket Club at Stanley Park, Rossall School and more! WINNERS of the FREE Island Cinema Tickets inside, see if you have won free tickets, popcorn or drinks courtesy of Island Cimena’s Congratulations to the winners of last month’s competitions. Margaret Dyer of Blackpool won our Where Am I? Competition, so well done - £50 is on its way to you!

The days are well and truly drawing in now the clocks have gone back and the sunsets are spectacular across the sea and estuary on the clear, crisp days of autumn.

There are two websites for Fylde, www. visitStAnnes.info and www.visitLytham.info. You can also subscribe for email updates to make sure that you don’t miss out!

At this time of year it’s lovely to wrap up warm and go for a stroll along the Green or the promenade at St Annes. Then have a warm in a cafe and a nice hot chocolate or coffee, and snuggle up later at home and enjoy that cosy, winter feeling.

If you’ve got anything to tell us just email jane@theRabbitPatch.co.uk or ring 07932 143431.

The birds are back on our coastline too. The Ribble Estuary is a significant wintering ground for migratory birds – next time you are near the coast have a look and see how many you can identify. It’s not many weeks until Christmas and there are Fayres and festivals to enjoy and mark the season, organised by the many local community groups.

“Quality, quality, quality,” Andrew responds when asked what is the most important thing to him. “Every customer must be 100% with the work we do – that way they recommend people to me and everybody is happy.” Andrew’s business, Trade Granite & Kitchens, supplies all its highest quality products at a competitive price. From granite and quartz worktops to homemade kitchens and furniture, it doesn’t matter. It’s all top-notch quality at bottom line prices. “We keep our prices keen and our standards high,” Andrew says. “We make our own kitchens, they’re never flat-packed and they’re colour-coded so the doors match the units.” The company also has a new showroom beside the Walk-In Centre at 144 Whitegate Drive, Blackpool. Everybody is welcome to accept free advice from Andrew without obligation. “We’re mainly family run; we don’t employ salesmen or contractors. Every job is project managed by me from start to finish,” Andrew said.

www.rooftechwarranties.co.uk Techno Clear has only been operating for a few months, so it’s inevitable they’d have a complaint or two while the teething problems were ironed out. And true enough, they did. Apparently the high quality Clearshield solution that had been applied to a customer’s windows had left her windows so clean that birds were flying into them! Techno Clear is the only company on the Fylde Coast with the lucrative license to apply Clearshield, a harmless solution, to glass to make them maintenance free. It can be applied to windows, glass doors, shower cubicles, even mirrors and coffee tables should you wish – they even do the interior! Fully trained staff expertly return the glass to factory standard before applying the solution, leaving the window so easy to maintain simply throwing a bucket of water over it will remove tough seaside salt and sand - without leaving streaks. There’s no need for polish or expensive cleaning materials either! Call 01253 780588 today for more information!

Work will start soon to install a £12,000 trim trail for Waddington Playing Fields in St Annes. The keep-fit initiative, consisting of openair gym-type equipment, is the latest improvement to the park which is owned by Fylde Council but has been “adopted” by volunteers of the “Make Waddy Wonderful” community group. The volunteers have raised £3,000 for the work themselves with a further £9,000 coming from Lancashire Environment Fund. Councillor Sue Fazackerley, Fylde Council cabinet member for Leisure and Culture, said: “The Make Waddy Wonderful volunteers have been so enthusiastic and are doing a great job in improving the park.

“There will be several items of gym-type equipment and they will be suitable for all age groups. Everyone these days is aware of personal health and fitness and, thanks to the volunteers, everyone will be able to do something about it free of charge. “Fylde’s parks are some of the best in the North West and much of the work is done by our volunteer groups. The council can’t afford to pay for all the improvements. This is where volunteers come in: they can raise money from a variety of other sources so that improvements can happen. “The good work of these volunteers will be appreciated by future generations and I thank them, on behalf of us all, for their efforts.”

Lytham St Annes News

War memorial rededication to add hero’s name A service of rededication is to be held at the Ashton Gardens war memorial at 3pm on Sunday 4 November. The St Annes service is in honour of Sergeant Nigel Coupe and Lance Corporal Stephen Burrows. Lance Corporal Burrows, who died in a carbomb attack on an army checkpoint in Northern Ireland in 1990, is listed on the “Other conflict” plaque on the memorial. The plaque is being recast to allow for the addition of Sergeant Coupe’s name. Father-of-two Sergeant Coupe (33), a member of the Duke of Lancaster’s Regiment and a former pupil at Mayfield Primary School, St Annes, died in Afghanistan in March. The armoured vehicle he and five comrades were travelling in was destroyed by a Taliban bomb and all six soldiers killed. Members of both families will attend the rededication service which will be led by the Rev David Lyon, vicar of the parish church

of St Annes, and Padre Philip Burrows, of Weeton Barracks. Guests will include Army representatives, councillors, regimental association representatives, War Memorials Trust representatives and Mark Menzies MP. Councillor Ed Nash, Fylde Council’s Armed Forces member, said: “I hope many members of the public will come to pay their respects to these brave men. “It is right but sad that we add the names of people who have died to protect us all. The people of Fylde will always hold them in the deepest admiration. “Both Sergeant Coupe and Lance Corporal Burrows lost their lives making life safer for the rest of us and that must never be forgotten. We will never take the bravery of our troops for granted.” The service will include the reading of names, laying of wreaths, the Last Post bugle requiem, bugle reveille, prayers and a reading of a poem by Nicola Marlton-Thomas, the widow of Corporal Loren Marlton-Thomas who died while searching for roadside bombs in Afghanistan in 2009.

Royal Horticultural Society judges have awarded overall Gold to Lytham and made it joint “best in category” winner in the “Small Coastal Town” section of the nationwide Britain in Bloom competition. The town’s volunteers will now compete in next year’s Champion of Champions category – the World Cup of horticultural civic pride. Dozens of volunteer members of the Lytham in Bloom group teamed up with Fylde Council to pull out all the stops for when judges from the Royal Horticultural Society visited in the summer. Judging was based on horticultural excellence, environmental quality and cleanliness and partnerships forged across the town. Judging criteria has broadened out in recent years to include not only flower beds and hanging baskets but also allotments, open spaces, involvement by the community, street cleaning, recycling and general environmental quality. Councillor Sue Fazackerley, Fylde Council Cabinet member for Leisure and Culture,

said: “Fylde can be justly proud of Lytham’s volunteers. Year in, year out they work tirelessly for the love of Lytham and they should be heartily congratulated.” Lytham in Bloom members have put in thousands of hours to prepare the town for the judging. They have galvanised support from other voluntary groups and business groups such as schools and retailers. Lytham in Bloom volunteers won silver five years ago, silver-gilt three years ago, gold two years ago and competed in the International In Bloom competition last year. Councillor Fazackerley added: “It’s been a story of constant improvement but this year’s achievement is the best yet. “Fylde is known for its golf, but I think it should be equally well-known for its beautiful floral displays. “All towns and villages in Fylde have taken up the In Bloom challenge. Lytham has been the most successful this year but every town and village has been looking wonderful in recent years. This is one of the Fylde’s greatest attractions.”

LYTHAM ST ANNES FOOTBALL CLUB Four of the five boys teams involved in the County Cup competitions progressed through to their respective 3rd round stages. The most notable game involved the Under 15s who had to travel to Cumbria for a 10.30am kick off against Ulverston Rangers. YMCA led 2-0 but the home side battled back to clinch a 2-2 draw before YMCA won the tie on the resulting penalty shootout. Four of the club’s boys teams, the under 13s, 14s, 15s and 16s all remained unbeaten in the first six weeks of the season. On the last weekend of September 90% of the scheduled junior games around the Fylde Coast were postponed after a week of frequent torrential rain showers but YMCA managed to stage

every year the country’s skies erupt with colour, but there’s more to bonfire night than the fireworks....

remember, remember...

the 5th of November!

We’ve all heard this rhyme and know it’s related to Bonfire Night and something to do with Guy Fawkes and the Houses of Parliament. Or was it the House of Commons?

Well, to try and clear up any doubts over what we are actually celebrating on 5 November every year, and how to celebrate it in style, we’ve put together a little guide. It’s only natural that we start right at the beginning with the history of Bonfire Night. The main cause for this near-catastrophic event in British history was, of course, stemmed in religion. When King James I came to the English throne in 1605 he established his power in the persecution of as many Catholics as possible, being a devout Protestant himself. Obviously, the Catholics, who weren’t even allowed to practice their beliefs, opposed this idea and the famous ‘Gunpowder Plot’ was born. Aiming to blow up the Houses of Parliament and all who were inside (namely King James), the group sent the legendary Guy Fawkes to keep watch over the barrels of gunpowder hidden under the Parliament floors. He was found and arrested and the plan was blown to pieces. In celebration of his lucky escape, King James ordered for a bonfire to take place each year in remembrance.

BONFire NiGHt Was BOrN. 36

Steeped in tradition, the whole of Britain comes out and enjoys 5 November year after year, no matter the weather. It’s probably better if the fire doesn’t turn to embers as quickly as it starts, but hey, whether it’s raining, blowing a gale or (fingers crossed!) crisp and dry, we all love a good bonfire.

Every bonfire party should never be without good food, whether it’s at an organised event or a private party at home, toffee apples and bonfire lollies are a must, as are marshmallows cooked over the open flames. Delicious, hearty food should always be provided, so think sausage casseroles, beef stews and chilli con carne, and a large glass of mulled wine or spiced cider is always a good idea for warming your hands on. Try hot apple juice and cinnamon for the kids. To get the most out of your bonfire, make sure you invest in some decent fireworks, and I don’t mean the £10 ones bought from your corner shop which just spit an array of colours whilst never moving off the ground. Check to see if there is a safe, organised firework event in your local area where all the family can enjoy the spectacular fireworks. Where else in the world can you stand around in the freezing cold, eating burnt sausages and roasted chestnuts watching the sky light up before you? Get your friends and family round, wave a few sparklers and have fun with this truly brilliant British tradition. Advertise Call 0800 970 7687
