Just the
A
ticket
few weeks ago I was walking down Bradshawgate in Leigh and saw some people in purple jackets manning a stand promoting the guided busway, which was still to open. As I stopped to pick up a timetable, a woman stormed up to the stand, almost knocking me flying, and demanded to know who was in charge because she wanted to make a complaint. I thought even Hyacinth Bucket would struggle to find fault in a bus service that hadn’t even started. It seemed to sum up the view of many people in Leigh who just can’t see the point of the busway and are still angered by the millions it cost to build. But for another generation, unaware of the years of planning problems that dogged its development, the busway is simply a handy, comfortable and relatively quick way to get into Manchester city centre. Families can sit together around tables, relax in high back leather seats and make use of the free Wifi while charging their mobile phones. It’s a bus but not as we know it. Whichever view you share, the busway has quickly become part of everyday life – so much so the purple double deckers don’t even turn heads anymore. Maybe it’s time the doubters got on board and gave it a chance. See you next time,

Signs of the
times
Leythers are rightly proud of their town and many still can’t accept they’ve been part of Wigan borough since the 1970s. The inter-town rivalry that has been stoked by rugby league for decades has taken an unexpected twist in recent weeks. Someone who revels in the name ‘The Leigh Panther’ has been covering up the Wigan borough crest on street signs with laminated stickers of the Leigh coat of arms. A few cropped up in April and now they’re all over the place. Some were removed only to be reinstated
overnight and Wigan Council are monitoring this subtle protest.

f you dismiss allergies as something that happen to other people, bear in mind that it can happen to anyone at any time, even if there’s no known family history of such problems.
While an estimated 21 million UK adults now suffer from at least one allergy, increasing numbers aren’t just sneezing or experiencing irritating rashes or gut problems, but suffering from severe - potentially life-threatening - reactions.
Serious concern In the last decade, food allergies have doubled, and the number of hospitalisations caused by severe allergic reactions has increased seven-fold - in fact, the charity Allergy UK notes that over the last two decades, there’s been a 615% increase in hospital admissions for anaphylaxis, the most serious type of allergic reaction. Like all reactions, anaphylaxis can occur out of the blue - and it’s a medical emergency, causing severe breathing difficulties, a drop in blood pressure and swelling of the face and airways. “Allergies can develop at any age,” stresses Moira Austin, information manager for the Anaphylaxis Campaign (www.anaphylaxis.org.uk). “Adult-onset allergy can mean adults who’ve eaten a food all their life, for example, can suddenly develop an allergy, and it can be a severe anyphylactic reaction.” There are a number of theories as to why this increase has come about, including the hygiene hypothesis, which suggests modern life is almost too clean, and our bodies are reacting adversely to substances they wouldn’t have reacted to had they been exposed to more during childhood.
Need to know Despite the rising figures however, research suggests that more than half of people (53%) wouldn’t recognise if someone was going into anaphylactic shock. The main symptoms may occur alongside milder reactions, such as a red, raised and

can stop cells releasing further chemicals into the blood as an allergic response. An ambulance should be called too - even if an adrenaline injection has been given - and the person who’s had the anaphylactic reaction should lie down, to help maintain blood pressure. Once in hospital, other medication, including oxygen, fluids, anti-histamines and corticosteroids, may be administered. “Deaths from anaphylaxis are extremely rare,
Moira Austin of the Anaphylaxis Campaign (www.anaphylaxis.org.uk itchy rash, and while a reaction is usually classed as anaphylactic when the lungs, heart rhythm or blood pressure are affected, there may be other signs too. For example, if someone starts vomiting after an insect sting, it can be the first indicator of anaphylaxis, because the sting has led to the release of chemicals which have travelled to the gut, and the vomiting may herald a more severe, widespread reaction. “There are a whole range of symptoms,” says Austin. “Generally speaking, anaphylaxis is an immediate reaction, with symptoms developing within minutes, or certainly within half an hour of being exposed to the allergen.” Antihistamines are usually effective for most milder allergic reactions but take too long to work when someone’s having an anaphylactic attack - which should always be treated urgently with adrenaline, usually injected into the upper-outer thigh with an auto-injector adrenaline pen prescribed by a doctor (people known to be at risk of anaphylaxis are generally advised to carry one on them at all times). The adrenaline starts to work within minutes, reducing swelling, relieving wheeze and improving blood pressure. It’s also the only medicine which
and tend to be when medication is given too late or isn’t available at all. In the vast majority of cases, adrenaline starts to work on the system straight away and is very effective,” says Austin. “It’s extremely difficult to predict who’s going to have a severe reaction, [and so] there’s little sound advice that can be given to stop allergies developing. “Just be aware of the symptoms, and if they’re severe, dial 999.”
What’s going on? Endless things can trigger an allergic reaction, but the most common causes of severe reactions include certain foods, especially peanuts, tree nuts and shellfish, bee and wasp stings and certain drugs. In most allergic reactions, allergens in the offending substance lead to the release of chemicals - like histamine - into the tissues in a particular part of the body, like the skin or eyes. As a result, symptoms, such as a skin rash, or red, itchy eyes, are usually seen in this area. But in anaphylaxis, the chemicals are released into the bloodstream, causing serious symptoms very quickly.
23
It’s not known why one person might have a mild allergic reaction, while another might go into anaphylactic shock. However, several factors can influence the severity of reactions, including exercise, heat, alcohol, the amount of allergen present, and even how food is prepared and eaten. Also, allergies can often run in families, and people with a history - or who have close relatives with a history - of asthma, eczema or hayfever may be more at risk. Anaphylaxis is slightly more likely in people who’ve had a previous anaphylactic reaction, moderate, severe or uncontrolled asthma, a reaction after only skin contact with an allergen, or in people who have cardiovascular disease.
Spot the signs Allergy UK says typical anaphylaxis symptoms are: • Swelling of the tongue and/or throat. • Difficulty swallowing or speaking. • Vocal changes (hoarse voice). • Wheeze, a persistent cough or severe asthma. • Difficult or noisy breathing. • Stomach cramps or vomiting after an insect sting. • Dizziness, collapse or loss of consciousness. • A sense of impending doom.

URPLE double deckers are now a regular sight if you live in Leigh.
The new deluxe Vantage buses connect the town with Manchester via a guided busway and offer commuters a 50 minute journey time into the city centre however bad the traffic is. Or at least that’s the plan. These buses travel along a four and a half mile stretch of concrete - which is neither a track or a road - between Leigh and Ellenbrook near Mosley Common. They then take a quick turn onto a dedicated bus lane on the East Lancs Road and 10 miles later you’re in Manchester.
27
If you’re in neighbouring Atherton with access to regular train services via two stations, the busway probably won’t seem like a big deal. But if you’re in Leigh, a town which hasn’t had a train station since 1969, the prospect of a regular, reliable link to Manchester is pretty attractive. Eight buses an hour will use the busway, so you’re never waiting too long for the next one. The project represents a huge feat of engineering and cost around £68million to complete. The development was heavily criticised from its inception in 1996 with protests about the potential damage to wildlife and cost to the taxpayer. It was only in 2012 that work started on the route, some seven years after permission was given.
Work on the scheme also caused major traffic problems in Leigh, Atherton and Tyldesley as well as for motorists using the East Lancs Road. Along the route are three park and ride facilities, each constructed with the aim of getting cars off the bottleneck roads around Manchester. The first bus to use the guided busway left Leigh early on April 3. Like a bride at her wedding, no-one really minded that it was a few minutes late. Camera clicks heralded the arrival of the shiny V1 at Leigh bus station and the first passengers were greeted like leaders of state on a foreign visit. Even goody bags were presented to those making the maiden voyage.
28
From the moment you board the bus it’s evident that this isn’t your standard mode of public transport. Fares costs the same as almost every other First Manchester service and your best buy is a First Day ticket which gives you unlimited travel for £4.20. You’re treated to comfortable, high back leather seats, free WIFI and even a charging point for your mobile phone. Stops are announced through the speakers and it feels more like a train than a bus. There are two tables upstairs so families can sit together. Vantage buses have low emission, hybrid engines so are almost spookily quiet. The ride along the
guided section is an absolute pleasure. As the route dissects Lilford Park there are some stunning views from the upper deck if you’re lucky enough to be travelling on a clear day. You’re in Tyldesley in no time and once the bus hits the busy East Lancs, you’re nearly half way to Manchester. The dedicated bus lane means you pass by the cars even in rush hour though the speed bumps near the University of Salford come as something of a shock after such a smooth ride. The busway will still attract criticism because of what it cost but for the generation oblivious to such debates, it represents a regular, reasonably priced link to one of Europe’s major cities.

Get the glow for
Shaw By Keeley Bolger
N
utritionist Madeleine Shaw is on a mission to improve our attitude towards food, especially in how we deal with so-called diet setbacks. “The worst thing you can do is be hard on yourself and negative,” says the 26-year-old, who counts Millie Mackintosh as a client. “It’s almost like that stress on your body counteracts any of the good stuff you’re doing. For me, it’s not just about the food you put on the plate, but the attitude you have to food and yourself. “I want to start a revolution of people being kinder to themselves.” And that means putting that extra-slice-of-triplechocolate-cake-shaped blip into perspective. “You’ve got to tell yourself that this one meal isn’t really going to change things,” she explains. “One piece of cake doesn’t really put on loads of weight. Tell yourself that, and then get back to eating healthy with your next meal.” Being kind to yourself extends to expectations around cooking food from scratch, too. It’s a great thing to do in theory, Shaw agrees, but whipping out the pans for every meal isn’t always realistic. “It’s very difficult to make all your food,” says the foodie and yoga fan. “On a busy day like today, I’ll buy food out, but you can make good choices if you’re grabbing something for lunch; there’s always choice.” She believes with a bit of
planning, nutritious fuss-free meals can be achieved even during busy spells, and has devoted her new book, Ready Steady Glow, to just that. Divided into “fast weeks and slow weekends”, many of the meals take 20 minutes or less to make, but there are more time-consuming recipes too, for those who want to “make that stew, do some baking...”, as well as a section detailing her basic yoga routine, and handy weekly meal plans. Show yourself some kindness with these three recipes from Ready, Steady, Glow...

Method Serves 2 Ingredients 1tbsp coconut oil or butter 3 garlic cloves, crushed 1tbsp freshly grated ginger 100g wild or button mushrooms, chopped in half 450ml chicken stock 1tbsp tamari 2 star anise 1 cinnamon stick 1 large carrot or 2 small, julienned 3 pak choi, cut in half 4 eggs 1 red chilli, finely sliced, to serve 2 spring onions, finely sliced, to serve
Heat the oil or butter in a pan, throw in the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds, then throw in the mushrooms and stir-fry for two minutes. Pour over the stock, tamari, star anise and cinnamon stick and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Throw the carrots and pak choi into the soup to cook for a further seven minutes while you prepare the eggs. Gently lower the eggs one by one into a pan halffilled with boiling water. Boil for five minutes for runny yolks and nine minutes for hard-boiled. Drain and hold under cold running water to stop them cooking and to cool them enough to peel. Ladle the soup into two bowls, slice the eggs in half and place on top of the soup. Throw the chilli and spring onions over the soup to serve. When you come across the cinnamon stick or star anise, remove them. They are there to add flavour to the soup, but not to be eaten.

with rosemary cauliflower mash
Method Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/gas mark 5.
Serves 2 Ingredients 2 lamb rumps (about 250g each) 1tsp dried rosemary 1tbsp coconut oil or butter Olive oil, to serve Chilli flakes, to serve Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste For the cauliflower mash: 1 cauliflower, roughly chopped 1tbsp coconut oil or butter 1 onion, finely chopped 2 garlic cloves, crushed 1tbsp dried rosemary Salt

Heat a pan with the one tablespoon of oil or butter and cook the lamb fat side down for four minutes, turning it over every minute until browned. Pop it in the oven for 15 minutes then leave it to rest for five minutes. To make the cauliflower mash, cook the cauliflower in a pan of boiling water for seven to10 minutes, until it is cooked through. Drain. Meanwhile, heat the oil or butter in a frying pan and throw in the onion. Saute for three minutes then throw in the garlic, a big pinch of salt and the rosemary. Cook for another three minutes then leave to cool slightly. Mash the onion mix with the cauliflower, scraping out all the spices and oil from the pan. Serve the mash and lamb together with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper, a pinch of chilli flakes and a big smile.

Up Holland circular by Chris Pearce
U
p Holland is pretty much home territory for us, certainly within walking distance of our office, so when the forecast was favourable we jumped at the chance of doing a long-planned 6 mile circular walk in Up Holland. This ancient village is on a hilltop between Wigan and Skelmersdale, and easily accessible from the M6 and M58. Mentioned in the Doomsday Book in 1086, Up Holland has an abundance of listed buildings including landmarks such as St Thomas the Martyr Church, a disused windmill and St Joseph’s seminary. Its lofty position over the West Lancashire plains offers abundant views for miles around.
We start from the Delph Tavern (WN5 8UJ) in the pretty little enclave of Tontine. This is a very popular village pub, which is rated 5 Star on Trip Advisor and has 5 rotating cask ales. Dogs are welcome, but only in the beer garden and taproom, and do bear in mind that the Delph only serves food from Wednesday to Sunday. When departing the car park turn left towards the mini roundabout, then turn left up Sandbrook Road. After 75 yards, turn into Lawns Avenue on the right. Follow Lawns Avenue and you’ll eventually arrive at Lawns Farm. Go through the side gate and through
37
road to exit the housing development onto Chequer Lane. Turn right and head downhill and once you reach the mini roundabout, bear right until you reach the T junction. Turn right, head up past the Plough and Harrow to another mini roundabout. Turn left and carry on up that road for 325 yards until you come to, yet again another mini roundabout and then turn right up Parsonage Brow.
the farmyard, past the farmhouse and up the path defined by drystone walls. Once you reach the top of the path and go through the metal gate, turn right. The views open up at this point; the rural vista includes Billinge Hill ahead with its masts and the air shafts from the Up Holland Tunnel – known locally as the pepper pots. Once you descend the track to the place where it forks, don’t follow either of the forks but instead hop over the stile on the right and head through the field towards the giant stanchions near the M58 – just follow the noise. Just as you get though the field, fork off towards the wooden telegraph pole and you should see a bridge over the motorway. Cross the bridge and then take the pathway on the left that runs parallel to the motorway. Once the path runs to a close, head 90 degrees towards the red brick house. When you reach Tower Hill Road, turn left for 75 yards or so, go past Fairhurst House and then turn right down the public footpath. After a minute or two, this opens up onto a field, just follow the left hand perimeter. And then you hit an obstacle - a new housing development which has temporarily obliterated the original footpath. Once you reach this point, turn left and follow the wooden fence downhill and you should materialise at 81 Miners View. Follow the
Within 200 yards, there are two entrances to Beacon Country Park – take the second one. The dirt pathway forks within 25 yards, take the right fork, going uphill until it merges into a stone path. Carry on in the same direction for 50 yards or so until you reach a brook. Directly after the brook, you’ll need to leave the stone pathway and instead follow a grassy path on the right. This pathway leads to a wooden bridge but just before the bridge take the path to the left leading uphill. Follow this path and you’ll eventually cross the brook and come to a wooden signpost, and on the skyline you’ll see the disused windmill. Take the path towards the windmill and you’ll exit directly onto Mill Lane – there’s no pavement here, so cross the
38
road straightaway. Turn left and follow Mill Lane for almost 1/3 of a mile. Look out for a large concrete speed bump on the right hand side, and take this turn down the concrete track. On a clear day, the views of Wigan, Rivington Pike and Winter Hill are breath-taking.
You’re now in the vicinity of St Joseph’s College, a seminary which was founded in 1883 and is now in a shameful state. Applications by an offshore developer to turn the building into apartments and build executive homes on the surrounding land were rejected by the planning department after a

fierce campaign by local residents. Check out the place on Google and you’ll see the scale of the place and the neglect. You’ll walk through a deserted hamlet and eventually emerge from the pathway onto a road. Turn left and once you’ve passed the bungalow by the bus stop, turn right down a footpath. Follow that path all the way downhill until you arrive at a single track road called Lafford Lane. Turn right and follow the single track road past the quaintly named Jollies i’ th’ Dean Farm. Follow the road round a sharp right hand bend (ignoring the public footpath to the left) and climb uphill. Once you arrive at Dean House Farm, look for a footpath on the left by the gates. Follow that footpath all the way to its conclusion, hop over the stile and you are now within the grounds of Dean Wood golf course. Carry on in the same direction and you’ll come to the green for the 1st hole and the tee for the 9th hole in close succession. Here, there’s a downward path into the woods on the left hand side. Descend into the woods on this path which doglegs and then takes you over the stream via a wooden bridge. Immediately after crossing this bridge, there’s another bridge higher up the bank on the left, so cross this bridge and climb all the way to the top of the bank, where you exit into open fields. Follow the pathway 250 yards until it forks – take the right hand fork. A further 200 yards further on the track will fork again and this time you turn left. Follow that track and you’ll come to a left hand bend near the 13th tee of the golf course. There’s also a track leading to a brick building on the golf course. Ignore all the established tracks and paths and instead set off along the left hand side of the tree line between the 13th hole and the practice ground – it’s a little used footpath, probably because the signage has
been destroyed, but it’s a public footpath. Once the path dips after 200 yards, you’ll see a metal bridge over a brook. Cross the bridge and follow a more established footpath for 175 yards through wasteland until you appear in a private close called Priory Nook. Cross the road and carry on in the same direction and you’ll appear on Back School Lane, and a few yards later at the busy School Lane in Up Holland. Turn right for 75 yards or so then turn left into Church Street, or alternately, take a short cut through the churchyard of St Thomas the Martyr, a handsome church that was built in the early 14th century and where infamous highwayman George Lyon is buried. Follow Church Street (which morphs into Cinnamon Brow and then into Tontine Road for almost ½ mile until you go under the motorway bridge and arrive back at the Delph Tavern.

Test drive
Renault
Kadjar by Tim Barnes-Clay
T
he French-made Renault Kadjar is one rung higher up the greasy pole than many of its competitors.
You see, there are lots of Qashqai clones on the market, but the Kadjar genuinely shares the popular Nissan’s platform and power units. What’s more, the car is cheaper to buy than the fashionable Qashqai and has that extra sprinkling of French flair. The front-wheel-drive 1.6 dCi 130 Signature Nav, on test here, is impressive. The turbo-charged oilburner starts out fairly meekly, but then things under the bonnet hot up, resulting in plenty of midrange pull. This is satisfying because it means you don’t need to work the gears hard to utilise the clout on tap. Push the Renault into twisty country lanes
and the car stays bonded to the tarmac. There’s a little bit of body roll noticeable, but it never disturbs ride comfort. In fact, the Kadjar arouses confidence in this sort of driving environment due to its consistently well-weighted steering. The brakes are excellent, although their urgency takes you by surprise on occasion. However, a capacity for quickly scrubbing-off-speed is no bad thing. The gearshift-action is a little heavy, and some diesel-din sneaks into the interior when the whip is cracked, but this Renault is not the sort of car bought by out-and-out driving enthusiasts. It is a vehicle that will spend the majority of its time in town, on the school run or on family outings. Unsurprisingly then, the Kadjar is comfy for a family-

of-four and handles scarred, urban road surfaces well, due to its nicely-cushioned suspension set-up. The boot is better than the Qashqai’s, in terms of load space, and it has the same ingenious flooring that can be elevated, dropped, or used as a partition to keep your possessions from tumbling about. Indeed, the Kadjar is a pleasant place to be, due, in no small part, to it having one of finest cabin’s in its class. From a tech point of view, the glass is just as full. The sat-nav system is a doddle and – in this flagship model – the car comes fully loaded with a top-quality Bose sound system, Bluetooth, faux leather upholstery, and a panoramic sunroof. Definitely more important than cabin toys is a car’s safety prowess. And the Kadjar has layer upon layer of kit to keep you protected. Equipment includes traffic sign recognition, lane-departure assist and

As mentioned, the Signature Nav is the top of the tree model, so unless you really need all the trimmings, you’ll enjoy the Kadjar just as much in its slightly lower-down-the ladder ‘Dynamique’ guise. The car is still well-appointed and represents excellent value for money, whether bought outright or on a PCP finance deal. To be honest, it’s hard to justify buying a Nissan Qashqai now that the Kadjar is on the scene. The car is just as good-looking, it’s great to drive, it has a bigger boot and its price-tag is lower. Unless you’re desperate to have the Qashqai moniker ornamenting your drive, save yourself some cash and go for the French marque instead.

Award Winner
A ‘must have’ for every garden
by Angie Barker
T
here is a plant which I think every garden should have, a plant which brings grace, form and colour to a planting scheme – and that plant is an Acer or Japanese Maple. I have to admit that I’ve not always been a fan of Acers. For years I thought they were difficult to grow successfully and not worth the bother. But having grown them now for several years in my own garden – boy have I changed my mind. There is an Acer to suit every garden, in terms of colour and size. Here is a small selection of my personal favourites: • Acer palmatum ‘Red Pygmy’ – as its name suggests it is very suitable for a small space • Acer palmatum ‘Garnet’ – finely dissected leaves with fantastic colour of darkish brown/red • Acer palmatum ‘Katsura’ – this one has yellow/ orange leaves in spring which turn green in summer and bright orange in Autumn
Angie is a qualified award-winning garden designer who will plan your garden to your needs from start to finish, supplying reputable contractors and the ideal plants.
With regard to growing conditions, get this right from the outset and you will find that your Acer will grow away happily and here are some tips: Acers hate windy conditions so they need placing in a fairly sheltered spot in the garden. They don’t like being in dry soil, so if you grow your Acer in a pot, make sure you keep it well watered. Avoid planting in a south facing aspect – contrary to what you might think, Acers enjoy a spot which is partially shaded. One of the best plants to grow underneath an Acer is Hakonechloa macra ‘Aureola’. A stunning little grass which is mounded in form, bright green and yellow leaves – a wonderful combination particularly with the red leaved ones. So this summer go out and bag yourself an Acer, there is a fantastic range to chose from. As Hubby always says, why get one when you can get two! (Well at least that’s what he says when he is shopping for a bottle of wine...)
