By LORNA HUGHES

THE leader of Wirral Council has defended plans to offload Pacific Road Arts Centre - but said the council would work with Birkenhead Central Library staff and users to look at how the building could be made to work.

International success for artistic twins

During a bad-tempered meeting about the council’s controversial Strategic Asset Review at the Lauries Centre on Monday, Cllr Steve Foulkes said Pacific Road had become a “niche” facility.

He described Birkenhead Central Library as “somewhat out on a limb” but said the council would work with staff and users to look at whether the facility could be saved. The meeting was the first of four area forums taking place across the borough this week to discuss plans to close 14 libraries and three sports centres and move some community facilities out of council control. On Pacific Road, Cllr Foulkes said: “It has developed a niche market and I don’t think, personally, that we’re very good at running those type of facilities.” There were groans from members of the public as Cllr Foulkes repeatedly referred to the council’s investment in the new Floral Pavilion Theatre in New Brighton. And speaking about the future of

Public wants answers on future of buildings Call for council to name organisations By LORNA HUGHES WIRRAL Council is facing demands to reveal the names of the organisations vying to take over buildings facing the axe as part of its strategic asset review.

More than 300 members of the public packed into the Lauries Centre in Birkenhead on Monday night seeking answers over the controversial proposals, which could see 14 libraries and three sports centres shut. Around 40 people were refused entry to the building on health and safety grounds - but council officials later relented and allowed them into the foyer for a hastily arranged presentation by Labour’s Cllr Phil Davies. The council’s director of regeneration Alan Stennard remained tightlipped over the future of the closurethreatened sites but told the meeting: ● The council has had “some discussions” with an organisation interested in using Woodchurch Leisure

● Council chief executive Steve Maddox and council leader Steve Foulkes respond to criticism from members of the public Code jr050109-7 Centre for “training and exercise-style facilities”. ● There have been a variety of approaches from local performance organisations, entrepreneurs and a faith group interested in Pacific Road Arts Centre ● A commercial organisation wants to use Birkenhead Town Hall for “celebration events”. Expressions of interest have also come from a drama group and a group who want to develop it as an art centre ● Representatives from the groups within Birkenhead’s Transport Museum have approached the council

● Hundreds of people attended the meeting, which opened with a council presentation on the plans Code jr050109-1 about running the museum ● “Community based groups” are interested in running Grange Road West Sports Centre, and there have been no proposals from developers for either the centre or car park opposite Mr Stennard said: “We have not gone out and sought anyone to express in terest - these are all interests that have come to us. “I’m not able to release names to-

Plans are defended ● From Page 1 Birkenhead Central Library, he said: “Central Library is not in a central location and it’s not on a main bus route, it’s somewhat out on a limb. “We are more than happy to work with people within the library to put some investment or some resource into whether that thing can be saved and made to work.” Director of Regeneration Alan Stennard moved to allay fears that developers could move in on Grange Road West Sports Centre - but confirmed there was interest in Woodchurch Leisure Centre from an organisation which wanted to use it for “training and exercise facilities”. One audience member suggested the council should consider raising council tax, arguing “you get what you pay for”. But Cllr Foulkes remained adamant the review was the only way to prevent a massive 12% rise in the tax - saying he would sanction an increase during the credit crunch only “over my dead body”. He added: “We are trying to sell a vision that I understand is very difficult to sell.” ● For more on the meeting see page 3. ● Find out what Birkenhead MP Frank Field had to say at the meeting on our website, www.wirralnews.co.uk

A WIRRAL professor has been given the highest civilian honour from the country he has devoted his life to studying.

Professor John Fisher, 65, of Greasby, has been made a Great Officer of the order of The Sun of Peru, an honour founded in 1821 after Peru declared independence. It is the oldest civilian award in the Americas and Professor Fisher is among only a few to have be awarded it in the UK. Professor Fisher, who has taught Latin American History at the University of Liverpool for 42 years, said he was delighted by the honour but admitted he was “just in the right place at the right time”. He took his job at the university in 1966 as Harold Wilson was setting up five national research centres to study parts of the world which had significant economic importance for Britain. He said: “Liverpool was given Peru and the Andean region and was asked to build up the country’s research collection.” His studies have taken Professor Fisher back and forth to Peru and Latin American exploring everything from the

His work has explained why such a large Inca empire was captured and destroyed by just 180 Spaniards back in 1572. Professor Fisher said: “The Spaniards were tough and greedy and had a strong sense of mission to convert the Per-

uvians to Catholicism. “The Aztec and Inca weren’t empires in the conventional sense but more a confederation of regional groups with lots of killing and infighting between groups, which didn’t make them a united force against the Spaniards.” Professor Fisher travelled to the Peruvian Embassy in London to collect his award from the president of the Republic of Peru.

LEISURE CLOSURES ● BUSINESSES AND GROUPS FACE UNCERTAINTY OVER ASSET REVIEW

Fears for the future Cinema club is under threat

A SPECIALISED music business and a long-established cinema club in Birkenhead say they are facing an uncertain future as a result of the council’s strategic asset review.

Keith Bennion, who runs KGB Musical Instruments at Pacific Road Arts Centre -

which makes, repairs and customises guitars - has written to councillors and MPs to say his business would be “heavily and adversely affected”. Birkenhead Library Cinema Club is in its 37th season at the Town Hall and has gathered a significant following for showing films unlikely to be screened at multiplex cinemas. Club secretary John Baxter said: “With the town hall’s fu-

Criticism over petition move A UNION has criticised Wirral Council for banning petitions from closurethreatened libraries and leisure centres. Two weeks ago the News reported staff were unhappy managers had warned them to stay out of the furore over plans to close 14 libraries and three sports centres in a controversial strategic asset review. Wirral Council said staff were free to sign or organise petitions outside work hours but acknowledged workers had been told to decline petition requests from worried members on council premises. Unison described the measures as “draconian”. Branch secretary Joe Taylor said: “Unison and its members have the right to campaign within the workplace. We circulated our petitions in the

By LORNA HUGHES workplace for workers and the public to sign, to defend cuts in jobs and services in Wirral. “If any Unison members are issued with disciplinary notices we will defend their and our right to campaign in the workplace and, if necessary, after consultation with the membership, go into dispute over this issue.” Special area forum meetings to discuss the closure proposals are being held across the borough this week. The meetings took place in Birkenhead and Port Sunlight on Monday and Tuesday and continue at West Kirby Concourse tonight (Wednesday) from 7pm and on Thursday at the Floral Pavilion Theatre, New Brighton, starting at 7pm.

ture now in doubt, we don’t know what the future will be for the cinema club. “The town hall is a grade Ilisted building, but if it’s taken over by a private organisation, we could end up being charged for the use of the rooms, and that could well be prohibitive. “At the moment, we just about break even. “It’s a real shame, because there is nowhere else like this on this side of Wirral and we have a loyal core membership.” Wirral Council has said it

faces mounting bills for a backlog of repairs on its estate of ageing libraries, leisure centres and museums – including Wirral Museum – and they are too expensive to heat and maintain. In their place, the council has said it wants to invest £20m over four years to develop a network of “state-of-the-art multi-purpose complexes”. The proposal for Pacific Road would see arts events moved to the Floral Pavilion in New Brighton.

the current economic climate it would be a real struggle for me to relocate and maintain this business.”

Last goodbye to Woolworths

Stores close across Wirral

STAFF at Woolworths in Birkenhead marked their last day of work by recreating a team photo from the store’s first year of trading in 1938.

The Grange Road shop shut its doors for the final time on December 27 after the ailing firm closed 807 branches across the UK. One of the few retailers in Birkenhead still trading in its original location, Woolworths opened in the town in 1938. Over 100 Wirral Woolworths workers lost their jobs in the Christmas and New Year closures - according to the company it employed 52 in Birkenhead, 34 in Liscard, 16 in New Ferry and 17 in Heswall. Birkenhead store manager Michael Shiels said: “The feedback from customers really has been “what a shame you’re closing”. “Before the store closed we

Farmers’ market set for return THE award-winning Wirral Farmers’ Market returns for the first time in the New Year this Saturday (January 10). If you’re feeling the cold, the credit crunch and looking for something healthy and comforting, then the market from 9am to 1pm at New Ferry Village Hall has it all. There is fresh fish and seafood, from High Seas Seafoods, as well as fruit and vegetables, some just picked from the ground and so packed with healthy vitamins. Check out John Jones’ and Freda and Bill Neale’s stalls. Healthy and nourishing soups will get you through the cold winter months and they can be frozen so you can stock up. Buffalo, from North Wales Buffalo, and ostrich, from Weatheroak Ostrich Farm, are both lower in cholesterol than beef and lower in fat, and taste delicious. Other news from the market is that visitors to the December market, who bought a raffle ticket for the chance to win great food prizes, helped to raise around £300 for the Ark homeless shelter in Birkenhead and New Ferry charity Stick ‘n’ Step. There is a large variety of food on offer at the market including award-winning cheeses, sausages, Welsh Black Beef, lamb, free range chickens, smoked food, fresh fish, free range eggs, local honey, pies, plants, cakes and soups along with plenty of seasonal vegetables. Wirral Farmers’ Market is run by a group of volunteers, who live and work in the area and organise the market in their spare time. Visit www.wirralfarmersmarket.co.uk for more information.

Roads will close for work on water pipes UNITED Utilities is carrying out a water mains replacement scheme in Wirral in the New Year. The company will be replacing old castiron mains on Raby Mere Road, Raby Hall Road and Hargrave Lane with modern plastic pipes as part of its £2.9bn water quality and environmental improvement programme for 2005-2010. To complete this work, roads will be closed to traffic in two phases. Raby Mere Road will

be closed between the junctions with Willaston Road and Raby Hall Road from Monday, January 5 for three weeks. Hargrave Lane will then be closed between the junctions with Raby Hall Road and Benty Heath Lane from Monday, January 26 for two weeks. Project engineer John Maher said: “A fully signposted diversion will be in place for each phase and access will be maintained for vehicle traffic. Pedestrian access will also be fully available.”

A WIRRAL referee stands for no messing when he oversees Sunday football league matches – but you would expect no less from a serving soldier.

Trevor Barrow was an infantry soldier for 29 years in the British Army, and is now an Army careers adviser in Wirral.

Local councils will dispose of the tree for you at one of their tips or recycling centres but this means loading the now dry and dropping tree into the car which then needs hoovering out or you can place the tree in the brown bin but the tree has to be cut up before hand. This is fine for some people but can prove difficult for others.

MOLLOYS HAVE THE SOLUTION!

Simply ring the centre and the tree will be collected from your home and recycled back onto local land. We save you time and money and help the environment too. Collection days are as follows: Jan 8th - Wallasey/Seacombe/New Brighton/Liscard Jan 9th - Moreton/Upton/Arrow Park/Greasby Jan 10th - Meols/Hoylake/West Kirby/Caldy Jan 12th - Irby/Pensby/Heswall/Birkenhead For more info ring 0151 638 1817 or email: molloy_neil@btinternet.com and quote ‘Wirral News’.

Councils have £16m stashed in accounts CASH-STRAPPED local authorities across Merseyside and Cheshire have more than £16m stashed away unused in bank accounts – despite it being handed over for use with major schemes in their areas. The councils - including Wirral have been forced to reveal details of their unspent funds following a Freedom of Information request. And the figure could be much higher, as neither Wirral nor St Helens councils were even able to work out how much cash they actually currently hold. The money has been handed to the authorities by developers to carry out publics works as part of conditions for approving planning permission for the schemes. It is often intended to pay for new road lay-outs or traffic lights connected with an increase in cars due to the new developments. One of the largest single sums handed over, in what are known as Section 106 agreements, was by the developers of the Cheshire Oaks retail development, totalling £4.25m. Of that, £1.8m still remained unspent when the authority responded to the request for details.

Ellesmere Port and Neston Council leader Justin Madders said time was running out for the existing council to use the money, before the reorganisation of local government and the take-over by Cheshire West and Chester Council. In total, Ellesmere Port and Neston Council has almost £3m of unspent Section 106 cash, although Sefton comes out with the highest amount of unspent cash locally with £4,357,956. Chester has £3,191,309 of money still banked, and Halton has £2,054,934. Wirral Council, which has dealt with almost 8,000 planning applications in the last four years, had completed more than 30 S106 agreements with developers in this period. In Ellesmere Port, which is due to become part of the newly-created Cheshire West and Cheshire Council from April, £1.8m of the money handed over by the Cheshire Oaks developers remains unspent, making up the largest single block of S106 cash held by the local authority.

UPILS from West Kirby Grammar School performed Carols by Candlelight at St Andrew’s Church.

The Handbells and Chamber Choir came together to play some of the sea-

Students return for presentation evening TOP students returned to Birkenhead for a Christmas reunion and presentation evening. Birkenhead Sixth Form College proudly welcomed the Class of 2008 after Summer exam results demonstrated another successful year. A total of 28 A-level subjects, including all Applied Double Awards, had a 100% pass rate and most students progressed to their first choice of university course or employment. Best All Round Student award went to Jamie Pinto, who left primary school at the age of six and didn’t resume formal education until he was 16. Jamie is now study-

ing theology and religious studies at the University of Cambridge. Anna Baldwin took the Unilever Award for geography and archaeology and an award for individual achievement went to Dean Garrity. Nicola Hobden was awarded the prize for mathematics while cornet player and former member of the college orchestra Doug Elkin received the prize for music. Doug is now studying at the Royal Northern College of Music. Politics and philosophy student Grace Everest won the Brian Field Memorial Award and Josh Elliott was named as 2008’s top science student.

Soccer skills scheme PARK High School Specialist Sports College and Everton Football Club hosted a sponsored skills morning for students in Year Seven. It involved students working with professional coaches from the club to develop their football skills. The pupils were encouraged to raise sponsorship money to go towards projects including referee qualifications, foot-

ball leaders’ qualifications, the mini kickers’ football programme and new school equipment for Park High and its cluster of primary schools. Ian Gauntlett, the school’s sport development officer, said: “It was a great success. Students raised a lot of money while having the opportunity to work with professional coaches to develop their skills.”

● The Singh twins at the premiere of The Making of Liverpool

Code cl180808-2

Double award thrill for twins

WIRRAL artists the Singh Twins are celebrating Hollywood success after winning two awards at an international film and art festival. Sisters Amrit and Rabindra entered their short animated film, The Making of Liverpool, into the Spinning Wheel Sikh Art and Film festival, where it

was seen by industry specialists from around the world. They won two awards at the three-day event - the Creative Media Award for the film and the Heritage Award for Contribution to the Arts. The twins said: “It was really exciting, a real Hollywood red carpet affair, and the award for

the film was just the icing on the cake. That seal of approval was a big buzz for us, it really meant a lot.” The Singh Twins have two commissions to work on in 2009, one for the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto and another for the Museum of London.

the person stuck in the inevitable traffic hold up! PS MEOLS

IT would appear that the council is once again continuing with its attempt to cause unnecessary tailbacks and frustration to motorists on Wirral. The latest efforts have been focused on the junction of Dovepoint Road and Station Approach with the main Birkenhead Road in Meols. It has been decided to erect an island right in the middle of what is already a slightly awkward road junction, thus making it more difficult than ever for vehicles turning in to Dovepoint Road. One has to ask who is responsible for these ridiculous alterations and furthermore, assume that they will never be

Only joking!

MAY I ask readers for contributions towards a very urgent appeal. Cheques should be made payable to the “Steve Foulkes China Trip Fund”. The idea is to send Councillor Foulkes back to China but this time it would be a one-way ticket. Don’t worry Steve, only joking, so you needn’t lose any more sleep. We love you really. Don’t we?

BIRTHDAY MEMORIAMS

Mountbatten Festival

School’s shock at bequest A SCHOOL was baffled after being left the £400,000 estate of a kind-hearted tax inspector. Audrey Tandy, 71, made Pensby High School for Girls her sole benefactor after her death about four years ago. The school used the money raised by the sale of her home in nearby Kylemore Drive to help fund a £2m library and teaching block called the Audrey Tandy Resource Centre. Pupils, teachers and even Mrs Tandy’s legal team are still at a loss as to why the stroke victim chose to leave her entire wealth to a school she had no association with. Sixth-formers have even used the puzzle as part of their studies. They established London-born Mrs Tandy, who outlived her engineer husband Edward, had no children and worked as a tax inspector. Neighbours de- ● Steve Hyden scribed Mrs Tandy, Code NA who died in 2005, as a straight-talking woman with a strongly feminist trait. Pupils also heard the lay preacher, who lived in Wirral for more than a decade, loved to holiday on cruise ships. But no concrete reasons for her act of generosity have been established. Possible theories are that she was among pensioners to visit nearby Heswall Hall visitor centre, where pupils serve dinner throughout the year. But Frankie Wise, legal assistant at Hillyer McKeown solicitors, who handled the bequest, said: “It could be she just wanted to help the school at the end of the road. “We know she thought education was important herself and had taken a number of Open University courses.” Head teacher Steve Hyden said: “Every Pensby girl present and future will remember the great gift she gave to our school.” “In providing for the girls so generously, she set an example of goodwill which will echo down the decades.” Anyone who knew Mrs Tandy is asked to contact Jill Thompson at the school on 648 1941.

Woman is rescued from East Float dock A WOMAN was rescued from the East Float Dock, Tower Road, Birkenhead last Monday evening. Fire crews were called to the incident at around 8.30pm and pulled the 35-year-old from the water.

She was transferred to Arrowe Park Hospital with hypothermia and cuts and bruises to both arms. Fire crews and the Marine Rescue Team attended the scene for an hour.

A 26-YEAR-OLD was taken to hospital after his car collided with another vehicle in Grove Road, Wallasey, last Friday evening.

Two fire crews attended the scene of the crash, which took place at 9.30pm, before sending the man to Arrowe Park Hospital.

Fire crews were called to the blaze in Devonshire Road at 8.55pm and fought the flames for 20 minutes.

Coral ready for new start in ’09

● The Coral - wrapping up the past and moving on

Band adapting to new line-up

T’S been a funny old year for The Coral. The Wirral favourites spent 2008 quietly grafting away, despite losing a beloved founder member. And they concluded with a New Year’s Eve Liverpool gig – one of their first electric shows without guitarist Bill Ryder Jones. Ryder Jones, an ac-

claimed talent on the Mersey scene, left The Coral for good in January, leaving a void the remaining five members have been forced to adapt to fill. Frontman James Skelly said: “I think he was always going to leave, it wasn’t a surprise to anyone and it was best for everyone involved. “He stuck it out in the end and fulfilled his obligations. He knew he had to for the band, but he left a long time before in his mind. “It’s been a relief for

Code NA

everyone. There’s no hard feelings, it just came to an end naturally, like a lot of things do. “There’s a new dynamic to the band now.” In a bid to mark such tumultuous events, this autumn The Coral released a retrospective, simply called the Singles Collection. James said: “It was just about wrapping up the past and moving on.” The band head into 2009 ready to get going again and get writing their first

album without Ryder Jones. “We have been rehearsing, demo-ing, writing new songs and just getting stuff together for gigs. We have got to learn new parts and because I’m singing I’m not as freed up on guitar and have to adapt. “We haven’t done any electric gigs with Bill leaving, but for some reason there feels like there’s less pressure and it should be a good gig for everyone.”

Focus On Soul singer set for city concert SOULFUL singing sensation Paul Carrack will bring his live tour to the Philharmonic Hall this month. The Sheffield-born singer and pianist, who shot to fame with Ace, has worked with an array of musical stars, from the Smiths to Elton John, Eric Clapton to Simply Red. As well as teaming up with Genesis guitarist Mike Rutherford, as a vocalist and keyboard player with Mike and the Mechanics, Carrack has guested on over 60 albums, and penned songs for the likes of the Eagles, Diana Ross, Tom Jones, Michael McDonald and Jools Hol- ● Paul Carrack land.

The brand new version of the song, originally written by Paul for the Eagles’ recent number one album Long Road Out Of Eden has been recorded especially for Paul’s album and features the Eagles singing backing vocals. The album also has a duet with Sam “Soul Man” Moore, of Sam and Dave fame. His live show promises to be a toetapping treat, packed with musical gems like How Long, Over My Shoulder, Satisfy My Soul and The Living Years.

SLIMMING JUST GOT EXTRA EASY IN WIRRAL

weight and the longer they keep going to their Slimming World group the more likely they are to stay at their dream weight long term.

Every January millions of people in the UK make a New Year’s resolution to lose weight. Seventy five per cent of adults make weight loss their number one aim, but most have given up by the end of the month. Despite the resolutions and the costs to health, many slimmers will have given up their dreams of leading a healthier lifestyle by the end of the January. But it needn’t be that way. Researchers at Slimming World, the UK’s leading weight loss organisation, have identified that if slimmers are successful in losing weight in their first six weeks, they’re far more likely to carry on and lose weight in the long term. The motivation of a great start in those crucial first six weeks is strongly linked to would-be slimmers reaching their ultimate target

So Slimming World has created a brand new eating plan designed to give slimmers the best possible start to their weight loss campaign in those early weeks. And slimmers in North Wirral have the chance to try it for themselves this month, when the new Extra Easy plan launches in all groups Slimming World group in Birkenhead, Moreton and Wallasey Now in its 40th year, Slimming World has for decades been the most advanced slimming organisation offering a cleverly constructed package of a flexible eating plan (which the company calls ‘Food Optimising) and an easy to start activity programme combined with warm and friendly group support. It’s a unique combination that helps individuals choose a weight loss solution that best fits with their lifestyle so they can make it a new everyday healthy routine. Slimming World’s research team are constantly reviewing what is most likely to help members achieve lasting success and they’re very excited about the launch of Extra Easy.

Nutritionist Jacquie Lavin PhD told us, “There’s so much conflicting advice these days about how to lose weight, and our new plan cuts right through it all to give a really easy, flexible start to every slimmer’s journey. It’s easy to follow with loads more choices, no measuring and no counting. And because it’s based on basic everyday filling foods it fits easily with the family whatever their lifestyle too. In trials, members had great results on the scales - as well as saving money on their weekly shopping bills too!

Paula Chapman Manager and local Slimming World Consultant is also thrilled about the new plan and it’s flexibility. It’s a really easy, achievable way to get started on a weight loss campaign. All the consultants on North Wirral are looking forward to welcoming new members to their groups to give it a go.” During trials member who tried the new plan were really enthusiastic about it’s flexibility and adaptability. They report that because it is so easy to follow, with no weighing or measuring, plenty of choice and enough freedom to still enjoy a glass of wine or chocolate, it is easier than ever to stick to.

A ray of sunshine A

CCORDING to the National Landlords Association (NLA), renting property is far too often perceived by some people, to be second best.

But, if a recently published report is anything to go by, this is all set to change. At last, private landlords have received the recognition they deserve in the comprehensive independent review of the private rented sector conducted by Dr Julie Rugg and David Rhodes of the University of York. However positive the review is, what does it mean for the hundreds of thousands of landlords up and down the country? What are its implications for the almost three million households which form

the modern private rented sector? Is it going to make a landlord’s life easier or more complicated? The NLA feels it’s not clear at this stage how much of the review’s recommendations the Government will seek to implement. But, perhaps, the issue which landlords will be most concerned about is the controversial proposal of a licence for all landlords. This proposal can only be understood in the context of a desire to see all good landlords operating to professional standards, while rooting out rogue operators who tarnish the image of the whole sector. The review suggests some kind of ‘permit’ be required by all landlords and available, at a fee, without having to meet any

specific criteria. If a landlord did not wish to be licensed, they would be free to use a licensed or regulated letting agent (another recommendation of the review). Administered at a national level rather than by local councils, the licence could be revoked if the landlord did not meet the legal requirements on housing quality and management. The review itself does not go much further on this issue but it does present an option for change rather than a concrete insistence that licensing is the only solution to bad landlording. The review highlights the urgent necessity to pursue a better understanding of the complexity and diversity of the private rented sector, holding no

FLAT ● Park View Aparts, New Chester Rd, Bromborough, £500pcm

THIS development is set in communal gardens, with private car parking facilities which are operated by a secure entry system. The apartment available is situated at the back of the building on the first floor, giving the occupier impressive views over the lush parklands

and trees, providing a stunning backdrop for the living accommodation. The property has two bedrooms, the master having an en-suite shower room. There is also a main bathroom and open plan living and kitchen area, which has a

washer/dryer and fridge/ freezer. The property also benefits from gas central heating and Upvc double glazing. There is a service lift available to all floors. ● Key Properties: 0151 342 1086

punches on where the system is failing – but most professional landlords could have pointed decision-makers to those areas a long time ago. So, in these days of economic gloom, there’s no doubt both landlords and tenants may struggle. However, the NLA believes this review provides some welcome sunshine. It says: “There’s little in the review about which landlords should be overly concerned or worried. If anything, landlords should feel encouraged. The Government commissioned the review and now it will consult further before producing solid proposals. Perhaps for the first time, these proposals will be based on sound evidence and not hearsay and anecdote.”

Well, you couldn’t be more wrong. Parkgate-based, Harding Motor Company is ready and able to offer a wide range of great finance deals to its used car customers. When it comes to financing, flexibility is key and Hardings is able to deal with Santander Consumer Finance, who own the Abbey group, to offer extensive financial packages to suit individual needs. Hardings is also a Black Horse-Approved Platinum Motor Dealer, with Black Horse Finance part of the Lloyd’s TSB group. This means competitive rates can be offered at flexible terms, with little or even no deposit required, subject to terms, status and conditions. With all the talk of financial gloom floating about, you

might think the Hardings forecourt would be devoid of buyers but, in fact, Hardings has been very busy of late. Hardings puts that down to bargain prices, reckoning that used car prices couldn’t be better value at the moment. At Hardings you could pick up a three-year-old, lowmileage car or even a small MPV for under £5,000. This new year looks set to be a great time to buy a used car, so pay a visit to Hardings as soon as possible and you’ll be able to snap up a real bargain. If you find that the car you’re after isn’t available on the Hardings’ forecourt, never fear. Just have a word with one of the friendly members of staff and they can use their contacts around the UK to source the vehicle you need. As one of the longest established garages in Wirral, with more than 25 years in the trade, Harding Motor Company is renowned for providing quality vehicles and excellent service.

● Senior sales executive Alex Mumford can offer great prices and superb finance packages at Harding Motor Company this new year Code NA There are as many as 100 used vehicles in stock, and peace of mind is assured because much of Hardings’ business comes from word of mouth recommendation and repeat custom.

ROAD TEST ● FIAT 500

Go city car crazy with the reborn 500 AS Europe goes city car crazy, the reborn Fiat 500 is proving to be the right car in the right place at the right time. It heralds the return of an iconic model that ranks up there with the Mini, Beetle, 2CV and Morris Minor. The latest incarnation of the car owes much to the original in its styling – but that is where any similarity ends, because it is brimming with the very latest 21st century technology. In that respect it is the most delightful mix of old and new, with a gloriously-retro interior, plus new engines coupled to high-tech electronics. Indeed, Fiat is finding that the move towards a new gener-

ation of tax-friendly city cars is enticing a new breed of buyers.. This is certainly the case with the baby Fiat, which of-

fers a choice of three engines, currently: two petrol units of 1.2 and 1.4-litres, plus a 1.3-litre turbodiesel. Available in three-door form

only, the 500 is offered with virtually every item of electronic and comfort equipment devised, including climate control, sat nav, MP3 player, parking sensors, panoramic sunroof and a choice of five and six-speed manual transmissions plus automatic and CVT. Prices are £8,100 for the 1.2 Pop, £9,500 for the same model with a 1.4-litre engine and £9,500 for the diesel Pop, rising to £10,900 for the Sport and Lounge diesel-powered versions. ● Contact Windsors Fiat,

ROAD TEST ● SUZUKI SX4

Small but perfectly ruggedly formed EVERYONE is downsizing these days – so even 4x4s are getting smaller. Take Suzuki’s SX4. It’s an SUV of sorts but it's no bigger than a supermini. It still has that unmistakable SUV styling, albeit in a scaled down form, but can't be accused of a litany of environmental crimes or being a hazard to anyone travelling on two feet. This car is a 'proper' offroader too – the top of the range 1.9 DDIS and the 1.6-

litre GLX petrol models are available with 4GRIP fourwheel-drive. It drives well, hugging the road through every twist and turn and with enough oomph to elicit looks of surprise from other road users. The other good thing about the SX4 is that it doesn't have any of the dynamic drawbacks of a conventional big SUV. Its driving position is what might be termed 'ever so slightly elevated'. So, rather

than a cabin, you have to practically climb up into it. Given its supermini size, space isn't generous but the cabin has an open and airy feel and plenty of headroom. The 1.9 DDIS really is the pick of the bunch as far as handling and performance go. If you're not doing a lot of miles then the four-wheel drive petrol model sits between the range topper and the basic model at £12,725. The diesel 1.9 really does

have a hell of a lot of pulling power and four-wheel-drive ensures it is not too much power for a small vehicle. From a practical point of view it is just about big enough to do the job as a family motor and overall it's a package that works well: nice to look at, fun to drive and a little bit different. ● Contact Stoneacre

More than a dozen students awarded first degree black belt in Korean martial art Rovers boss

Pupils belt up to make grading in force at HQ

MORE than a dozen pupils from the Richard Saunders Schools of Taekwondo are celebrating after taking their first degree black belt in the Korean martial arts.

Eighteen successful students travelled to Bristol to take their grading in the Taekwondo Association of Great Britain's headquarters in front of five eighth Degree Taekwondo instructors. They were Mathew Evans, 36, Charlie Jones, 15, Brian Anderton, 39, Robert Hallwood, 16, Roy Anislie, 14, Keith Taylor, 27, Bradley Sandland, 14, Reece Wimbush, 14, Joseph Tighe, 11, Jordan Hall, 11, Dawn Thomas, 30, Emma Millichope, 14, Ryan Godbold, 12, Joseph Maddocks, 10, Nathan Saunders, seven, Owen Godbold, nine, Steve Ainslie, 11, and Samuel McLoughlin, 11. The students have all been training for a minimum of three-and-a-half years in order to get themselves ready, as the grading required them to perform different techniques, free-sparring, self-defence and also a verbal exam. Chief instructor Richard Saunders, who is a 5th Dan, said: “Myself and my team of instructors are very proud to have so many new black belts. “I have been teaching taekwondo

in the Wirral for more than 14 years and have produced lots of students to black belt status, but this is our biggest number of students that were successful at one time. “Taekwondo teaches a student co-ordination skills, balance and flexibility, as well as helping re-

inforce respect, courtesy, self-discipline and improved fitness and all the students did exceptionally well.” Meanwhile, Richard’s son, Nathan, was also kicking and punching with joy after becoming one of the youngest black belts in the UK. The Taekwondo Association of Great Britain student took his black belt in in front of five newly promoted 8th Degree Taekwondo instructors. Nathan, who is only seven and attends Brookhurst Primary, travelled to Bristol to take his grading and had to kick and punch his way through the exam.

Proud dad and instructor, Richard, said: “Having watched lots of children take their black belt grading, it was very hard for me watching Nathan. “It was like my own grading all over again. Also with Nathan being the youngest there, he was also the smallest. “But he came across very strong and did all his movements correct and precise.” ● Anyone wishing to know more about taekwondo or a club near you can contact Richard on 512 6521 or visit the club web site: www.wirraltkd.co.uk

Ronnie not happy being frozen out FOOTBALL

● From Page 64 referee. It is a nightmare for our supporters, who had to travel a long way and started their journey at seven in the morning. For them to be told at a quarter to two that the game is off is unacceptable.” Referee Ward arrived at the ground in time to make a noon inspection. He said: “The overriding issue was players’ safety. In my opinion, the game could not have been started, let alone finished.” Ward insisted that he had been informed by the groundsman that the pitch had thawed out after cold overnight weather earlier in the week and was playable at 3pm. He added: “I worked with that local information when I looked at the pitch at noon. “The groundsman asked me for another hour. Half of the pitch thawed out, the other half did not.” Tranmere’s frustration at the chain of events was made no better by the sight of the Colchester players beginning a training session on the pitch half an hour after the game was called off. Colchester chief executive Steve Bradshaw said: “Maybe we could have invested £100,000 on putting covers all over the pitch but they are only good up to -4° and it was colder than that overnight. We will investigate how (the postponement) happened and if there are any lessons to learn we will apply them in the future.” ● Tranmere’ home Coca-Cola League One match against Leicester City will now take place on Wednesday, March 11 (KO 7.45pm) following a request from Merseyside Police. With Liverpool playing at home to Real Madrid on the Tuesday, Merseyside Police informed Rovers they would be unable to cover both matches at the same time.

Steve tipped for the top BOXING ● From Page 64 his route back into championship class after being stopped by excellent British champion, John Murray, last November. Yet, just like he did last month, when he out-pointed Scottish prospect Stuart Green over eight in Glasgow, Williams tore up the script to keep his own unbeaten run as a pro intact. Now 6-0 with two KOs, the win over Hickman should propel Williams up the British ratings and within touching distance of a Central Area or English title fight. Williams said: “I hoped to get six fights in inside my first 12 months as a pro, but I never expected to be stepped up in class so quickly. I have been offered some great fights and never turned an opportunity down. “Now I just want to push on in 2009 and keep on winning and fighting regularly. Hickman was definitely another step up for me. It’s definitely my best win.”

keeper Khalid Al-Samarraie that kept the scoreline in their favour with a series of great saves. Lairds boss Derek Ward was full of praise for his players. He said: “I am proud of each and every man who wore the shirt today. “It hasn't been an easy few weeks at Cammell Laird, but

I think we have shown the mettle that exists here at Kirklands. “We will never be a pushover for any opposition and that was in evidence at Nantwich on New Years Day. “My boys pulled out all of the stops to show what they are capable of and we can't wait till the next game"

A crowd approaching 1,000 were willing the homesters on but most went home disappointed after Derek Ward's men confounded the odds to grab a well-deserved three points. Buoyed on by the home support, Nantwich came at Lairds from the start, buoyed on by the home support. But the Wirral side were strong at the back and thwarted any effort the Dabbers could muster.

MOORE UNHAPPY WITH BIG FREEZE

Tranmere boss angry with frozen pitch farce at Colchester Utd TRANMERE boss Ronnie Moore was asking “why no cover-up?” after Saturday’s League One game at Colchester United was called off a little more than one hour before kick-off.

Referee Gavin Ward postponed the game because an area of the pitch in the shadow of the south stand at the new Colchester Community Stadium was frozen just below the surface following an overnight frost. Moore and his team would have been prepared to play, whereas Colchester manager Paul Lambert was reluctant. But while Rovers were willing to accept the decision of Surrey official Ward to put the players’ safety first, Moore 2 0 Y E A R G UA R A N T E E !

By NICK HILTON was critical of Colchester for their failure to protect the pitch with a cover. Moore said: “The disappointing thing is the pitch was not covered. I came to the ground with the backroom staff at 10am to put the kit out and the only covers on the pitch were in one penalty area. “The ground is in perfect condition and someone should be held accountable for not putting covers on it. It caused a problem for everyone. Colchester should look at

themselves for not preparing right.” Colchester did not invest in a full pitch covering for their new £14million home ground, built and owned by the local authority, which opened at the start of the season. Tranmere have a pitch cover to protect the playing surface at Prenton Park to a temperature of -5°C. Moore revealed that his sympathies lay with the travelling

Tranmere supporters, who began their journey from Prenton Park at 7am, while the Tranmere players and staff stayed overnight at a hotel near Colchester. Moore added: “We were gutted about the game being called off. When we arrived at 10am, there was frost in the ground but the groundsman said it would be okay by 1pm. “There was only a 20-yard area where it was hard by that time. Our players wanted to play. We were willing to give it a go. I said to the referee that I would like to play. Their manager did not want to play, so it was a decision made by the
