Members of several community groups in Southwater are in celebratory mood after winning their fight to retain use of Easteds Barn. They were out in force at a meeting of Horsham District Council’s planning committee on Tuesday night, with many speaking out against plans for the barn to become an infants school. Despite the general support of the village community, members of art, yoga, bridge and various other clubs were in danger of losing what they labelled a “lifeline” facility. But the ones who ultimately lost out were the applicant, Montessori School. The school currently operates at Church Lane, Southwater, where the lease expires in 2011, and it is currently unclear what - if any - alternatives are available to the school and the young people using it. Throughout the campaign process, those fighting to save the barn, located in Easteds Lane, for the community in-

sisted they had no gripe with Montessori. Instead, their anger was primarily directed at Southwater Parish Council. The parish council, recently criticised for its lack of objection to housing development plans proposed in the village, has not boosted its popularity in the community by supporting the application. At Tuesday night’s meeting, objector Mike Robins of Cedar Drive, Southwater, said: “Worthy though Montessori might be, it would serve a very small part of the community. “The barn was intended for our whole community and we surely deserve better than to have our open space given away for a pot of gold - dare I say 30 pieces of silver.” But a spokeswoman for Montessori said, while supporting the application: “It’s often those that shout the loudest that get heard. But (our children) do not shout, but they do deserve to be heard.”

Long hard slog The long running saga over the future of Easteds Barn is over, and has taken a lot out of many people. Users of the barn, which hosts yoga, art and bridge clubs for children and adults, may be celebrating as they still have a good facility to use. But should they have had to fight so hard, and spend so many hours preparing a defence, to retain the use of a barn that was promised to them in a binding agreement as a “community facility” less than 20 years ago? And of course it’s bad news for Montessori, a wonderful school which may have fallen victim to its own success. It has been portrayed as being almost a corporate giant throughout the planning process, as oppose to what it is - a fine school which offers safe and enjoyable care for many children in the village. Where will they look to now? Its Church Lane building is currently leased to the Parish

Battle of Easteds Barn finally over

Council from the Fletcher Trust until 2016. It is in turn subleased (only with agreement from Fletcher Trust) to the Montessori. This sublease will expire late next year. You can understand why Southwater Parish Council supported the application, as it would undoubtedly bring in more money and ensure that Montessori’s future in the village was secure. But their stance has angered many residents, who feel let down by the council’s willingness to let one of the few local facilities go. While there are other buildings the clubs could have moved into, the users always insisted that, for many, this was not an option. On Tuesday night, Julie Stainton said: “The barn’s a social lifeline for elderly people who can’t drive but can walk short distances/ “Don’t ask 80-year-olds to walk “only” an extra mile because a business wants their

meeting hall. Let the business go elsewhere.” “The barn’s a daytime haven for people who don’t want to go out at night. The 94-yearold member of the bridge club; the 81-year-old who’s done the art classes for ten years. This council has promised to protect them.” Michael Fuller, another objector, added: “The strategy says development should help to encourage social cohesion; the application is divisive, benefiting a small section to the detriment of the wider community.” However, while Easteds Barn is used by a number of groups, its use has dwindled in recent years. Some residents and users of the barn blame that on Southwater Parish Council, with Mike Robins claiming it had done “very little over the years to market it”. Cllr Ian Howard said on Tuesday: “It is a difficult situation. We have to be careful that we don’t appear to be

telling Southwater Parish Council (how it should run). “They are endeavouring to do their best for their people. They are not doing it for profit, or 30 pieces of silver. “But there are very strong feelings about this barn. It has been there for a long time and it’s a good facility. However, there is no question that over the last few years there has been a considerable decline. “That is why the Parish Council has decided to look at it. Now we have a balance, where we are looking at replacing one community facility with another.” Cllr Howard was not the only person on the committee to support Montessori’s application, but most sided with the campaigners and agreed that the building should be retained for use by the community, with Cllr Belinda Walters suggesting it would be “setting a precedent” if the agreement (for the barn to be used as a community building) be broken.

A281 arrest

Two men were arrested when police safely stopped a van which had failed to stop for officers after being seen driven erratically on the A281 between Cowfold and Horsham just before midnight on Sunday. The van was followed north up the A281, then through Maplehurst and Nuthurst, before it was brought to a stop back on the A281 at Monks Gate near Horsham less than 15 minutes later. The van and a police car were slightly damaged but nobody was hurt. James Green, 25, of Peskett Close, Barns Green, was charged with dangerous driving, failing to stop for police, driving with excess alcohol, no insurance and disqualified driving, and is due to appear in custody at Crawley Magistrates Court on Tuesday 6th July. The passenger was released without charge. On Sunday, a car crashed through the front on Be Beautiful on Crawley Road (Pic: Jasmine Curtis)

Nail-biting stuff There’s never a good time to have a car crash through the front of your shop, but if it’s going to happen, then it’s best it happens on a Sunday. Thankfully nobody was having their nails painted or enjoying a spray tan at Be Beautiful on Crawley Road, Roffey, when an Alfa Romeo crashed through the glass entrance. While nobody was inside, witnesses did report that the accident was caused when the Alfa was caused to swerve to avoid a collision. A spokesperson for Sussex Police said: “It appears the driver had to swerve to avoid hitting another car, a VW Fox. “The driver of the VW Fox was later arrested for driving with-

out insurance, failure to stop and report an accident and taking and driving away a car without consent. The 36-year-old man has been released on bail until 21st August.” While it’s obviously not ideal for the owner, Bronwen Chapman-Goldsmith has been able to pack up much of her business and set up temporarily at her home nearby. Bronwen said: “I got a call just as we were heading out for a family barbecue. It’s quite a small community here so I heard within minutes and made my way to the shop. “Now I have to wait for a while for the loss adjustors to come in and then we can carry out the repair work.

“At this stage I don’t 90m know 0y how long it will be (before we 30kpeople are back in the shop) but can still call the shop number and speak to me. 0c Bronwen added: “I20m need to keep going as I need to 70ykeep all of my clients beautiful!0kI have set up in the Conservatory of my house which is close to the shop, and although I will miss the walk in business I suppose it’s good that I can carry on. “It’s a shame, as we’ve been really busy of late with some 100c new products. But they will all still be ready for when90m we open 0y up once again!”

Cyclist dies

A man was found dead on a footpath in Leith View Road, Horsham, on Sunday morning. Trevor Harvey, 67, of South Holmes Road, was found next to his bicycle at 7.50am. Police closed the road while they carried out an investigation into the circumstances of Mr Harvey's death. A post-mortem revealed he had died of heart failure.

The headless horseman

In the 17th Century, St Leonard’s Forest was supposedly home to a Serpent or Dragon, which left a trail of slime. But it is also home to the legend of a Headless Horseman, and any youngsters aware of the legend can’t help but listen out for the sound of galloping hooves. The Resident went to explore the forest for clues, and thought we had got lucky, as we came across a marshall from the nearby motocross race, whose pencil had broken. “Are you the headless horseman?” we asked. “No, I’m the leadless courseman, he replied. So near, yet so far, we fearlessly continued, until we came to a lake, where a rower was sobbing, having just lost his log cabin to a woodland fire. “Are you the headless horseman?” we enquired. “No, I am the shed-less oarsman,” he replied. It seems it was not our lucky day.

Spook central? Walking around St John the Evangelist Church in Coolhurst, near Horsham Rugby Club, you can convince yourself you’re being watched. But then you could say the same of most seldom-used churches on the edge of woodland on a quiet, rural road. During The Resident’s visit, we didn’t see any ghosts. We heard a rustling in the bushes, but it was a fox. Then a whistling sound...which was a whistle - from youth team training at the rugby club. So no ghosts then, but it was a different story for Stephen Foster. Readers may recall a story in The Resident from May 2009, when Stephen and a friend endured the scariest night of their lives while camping out near the church. Stephen admitted he was “bricking it” as he and a pal,

Todd Bevis, were tormented by a petrifying onslaught of ghostly goings-on. Stephen claims that after their tent zip was opened he peeped outside to see the ghostly figure of a young girl, aged about ten, with just mist below the knees. He said at the time: “It wasn’t human. Even her eyes were not human - they were white and she was just staring, and the body only seemed to be from the knees upwards.” You might think though, that the two boys were - by camping so close to what is considered to be one of the town’s most eerie spots - the boys were asking for trouble. Stephen confirmed that they hadn’t been smoking anything funny, but you might even think that the lads scared the wits out of each other to such an extent they

The old man seen by John Rowell at St John’s appeared to leave no footprints in the snow

thought they saw something they didn’t. But so convinced was Stephen by what happened, he put out an appeal for other stories relating to the church. However, nobody replied to his appeal...until now. John Rowell, who has moved away from the area, found Stephen’s story on visithorsham.co.uk and told his tale, which dates back to 1973, when he was working as a contracting electrician for Seeboard. He was asked to change a distribution fuseboard at the Church in February or March of that year, and in spite of light snowfall cycled from his home in Longfield Road to Coolhurst, with his tools in a bag. By the time he had picked up the key from the priest’s house and made it the church the snow was settling, so he went inside and closed the door. John recalls: “The church was very quiet and quite dark inside and every step I took on the stone floor again made long echoes which I remember quite clearly bouncing around the walls of the church.” While carrying out his work, John heard the clunk of the latch of the church door, and then the creak of the door as someone slowly swung it open, then it creaked again as it was being closed, and the latch clunked shut. Assuming it was a colleague, Ian, who he knew would be Continued on Page 5...

Continued from Page 4... making his own checks later that day, he called ‘Ian, I’m here in the vestry, behind the curtain’. But there was no answer John said: “I was suddenly surprised to see a single dark figure standing quite still in the middle of the main aisle looking up towards the alter. “He was dressed in a long brown thick cloth coat which hung down to touch the floor he had a shoulder cape over the top of it made of the same material. “He was also wearing a large brown rimmed floppy pointed hat which also looked like it was the same material. “He was covered with snow, laying on his hat and shoulders, he also had with him a straight walking stick with spiral twists down it on which he had both his hands crossed and resting on top of it in front of him.” The man asked if he could shelter from the snow which was now falling heavily, sat down in a pew, while John returned to his work. But when he checked on the old man a short time later, he was gone. John searched the building, checking the pews to see if he was lying down and headed down to the crypt but the door was locked. John had not heard the huge creaking door open, but assumed that the mystery

Stephen Foster had a spooky encounter in St Leonard’s Forest, near St John’s man had somehow sneaked out. He said: “I walked over to the main door and opened it, as I did so, it made the loud creaking noise which if he had opened it to leave I know I would have heard. “I walked out into the porch, and nothing had changed, there was my bicycle still leaning against the wall exactly where I left it. “The snow was coming down much heavier now as I looked out across into the woodland behind the church. I stepped further out into the

snow and walked along the path to the corner of the church to look back up towards the entrance gate by the road. “It was then that this whole occurrence suddenly struck me as odd. The only footprints that were visible in the snow were those of my own. “There was no sign of any footprints or marks that would have been made by any other person since my arrival. “I remember, although it was quite cold, I was sweating and I started to feel a bit unsteady on my feet.”

John eventually got back to work, and his colleague Ian arrived later in the day. John recently returned to the church, but still can offer no explanation as to what happened. He said: “I remember telling the parish priest about it when I took the key back to his house at the end of the day, He could not understand or explain it to me either I know that it could not as such have been an ordinary person because they like me would have left some sort of mark or footprints in the snow, especially as he had the long coat that would have

surely have dragged along the ground and made marks in the snow when he walked. “It has been suggested to me that if this was something from the spirit world, it may have been an apparition of a medieval rector or priest who was in some way emotionally involved or attached with the church in the past. “Anyway, if I was to accept this as a ghostly apparition, all I know is that he looked as real as you or me, he was not transparent in any way or floating above the ground. Nor did he give me at that time any reason to be suspicious or have any cause for concern. “It is peculiar, although at the time I did not think about it, I did not to hear his footsteps on the stone floor of the church and that he was standing in the middle of the centre aisle of the church when I first saw him which is a good three or four metres from inside the church door. “However, I did hear him when he spoke and I did hear the church door open and then close again just before I came out of the vestry and saw him. “It may be interesting to return again on another snowy day. You never know, maybe, he will be there again!” Had a ghostly or unexplained encounter? Do let us know about it by email at ben@the-resident.co.uk

Amputee ready for Kilimanjaro hike For most of us, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro would be a steep challenge. But for singer Damian MacDonald, from Broadbridge Heath, to attempt the challenge is all the more admirable. He only has one leg. Damian, 41, is usually found singing to clients with learning disabilities at local residential homes, or performing in pubs or at functions, but from 14th-24th October he will be donning his hiking boots and climbing Mt Kilimanjaro along with a group of other amputees to raise money for LimbPower. Damian had his left leg amputated as a teenager in 1987 following a road accident while living in South Africa, and would have found the support of LimbPower invaluable had it been in existence then. Damian said: “I’ll be leaving my daughter four days after her second birthday, and we have another baby due within the next two weeks, so I’m grateful to my wife, Karen, for her support in letting me go. I’d better

Kilimanjaro is Africa’s highest Mountain make this worth it!” The hard work will all be worthwhile for Damian if he succeeds in raising £3,000 for LimbPower. LimbPower offer relief to the physically disabled by aiding rehabilitation and improving the quality of life through the medium of recreational and competitive sports and arts. ”Before the accident, I had been very involved in sport in and out of school. In my age group I was school champion at high jump, I was in the 1st Team for Basketball and Hockey and

competed at the equivalent of county level in crosscountry running. “Outside school I played football for my local club, and enjoyed cycling and skateboarding," Damian said. "At 10:30am on 25th September 1985 that all stopped.” It took about 20 years for Damian to find the inspiration and opportunity to try again. First he started running again, which led to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join the Team GB Rowing Squad, training for the 2008 Beijing Para-

lympics. Unfortunately he didn’t make the final squad, but the experience encouraged him to try more. In 2008, he met Kiera Roche, founder of LimbPower, and was invited to the Amputee Games at Stoke Mandeville. In April 2010, he managed to ride a bike again for the first time, completing a 16-mile charity ride in June 2010, which led to the opportunity to join the Kilimanjaro Challenge. He said: “LimbPower has already opened up some amazing opportunities for me, now it's time I did something for them." Damian is very popular with his clients, and some of the residential homes are holding raffles and other fundraising events to help raise the £3,000 Damian needs to find within the next three months. Within the first five days of fundraising, Damian raised £650 and he is hoping the local community will support him in his Kilimanjaro challenge.

Sparks in the Park 24th-25th July See page 28-29

Last year’s Big Day Out has become Sparks in the Park, and the organisers are promising that Horsham Park is going to be the setting for “the most amazing carnival procession Horsham has ever seen”. Horsham District Council has teamed up with one of the leading carnival companies in England to organise and stage an energetic, colourful and flamboyant carnival procession with the emphasis on participation and fun. The procession will see nearly 80 amazing wing and skirt costumes from the Kinetika Spectacle Collection parade through the Park on Sunday 25 July.

Leading up to the 25th July there will be a number of ways to get involved and participate in the carnival, including carnival making workshops, and samba workshops which hope to create and form Horsham’s very own samba band. There’s also an inter-bsuiness Sportsaid competition being run. Hopefully you’ll have seen the entry form in last week’s paper but if not it’s a good way to get your workforce involved in new sports... For more information about how to get involved, especially to be in a samba band, please contact Nick Jenkins on 01403 215216 or email nick.jenkins@horsham.gov.uk

The best bits...

Once again the festival will take place over three days. Local businesses should try and get involved in the May Gurney boules contest on the Friday, although only 16 teams can enter (opposite page). On the Sunday, you can join local artists to create Impressionist style paintings of Old Horsham or work from gorgeous still-life provided by La Source in East Street. For further information please email Janine.Creaye@artform.demon.co.uk On Saturday, beat the Tour de Horsham challenge on cycling machines in the Carfax provided by Kinetika gyms. Participants can win Kinetika gym membership prizes and give aways. On the same day step back in time and see French Napoleonic soldiers and cantinieres, and hear the tales from those times with story telling at Horsham Museum at 11.30am and 2.30pm. And of course there will be the French Market running throughout the festival, which boasts some simply delicious produce.

Last year, the Resident noted that FrenchFest seemed a bit of a let down after the thrill of Piazza Italia. We even came up with some ideas on how to jazz it up, such as snail racing in the Carfax, or a Citroen 2CV time trial in Swan Walk car park. Thankfully, the organisers have sensibly ignored our suggestion, and instead have come up with ways to provide visitors with a fantastic variety of Gallic inspired treats in the town centre from Friday 16th to Sunday 18th July. Now in its fifth year, the festival combines an authentic French market in the Carfax, and French culture, history and themed entertainments across the town. In addition to the market itself, regular favourites on the Saturday include Boules (Petanque) in Market Square

with the Southern Petanque Association (see opposite) and a troop of French Napoleonic re-enactors, the 45eme, who will be drilling ‘new recruits’ and story telling. For FrenchFest this year visitors will be treated to a number of exciting new features including a party of Norman re-enactors on the Saturday and a display and opportunity to gets ‘hands on’ with impressionist painting by Horsham studios in the Carfax on Sunday. Also on Saturday, Kinetika gyms will be running a ‘Tour de Horsham’ prize challenge and the Local Produce and Craft market moves to The Forum for the Saturday and features Hepworths Brewery and a competition to win a local produce hamper. Whether you come in to practise your French with the

market traders, to seek out the weekend’s shop promotions or simply to soak up the special FrenchFest atmosphere – your Horsham experience this weekend will be truly Time Well Spent. As with previous year’s Horsham FrenchFest encourages visitors and local students to practise their French language skills with the traders and special FrenchFest stickers will be handed out to those who try their linguistic skills. “Deux crossiants de chocolat et une baguette s'il vous plaît.” That’s all we know. Horsham FrenchFest 2010 is sponsored by East Street’s La Source and Cote Brasserie and May Gurney. The complete details of the programme can be downloaded from www.frenchfest.co.uk

Twistin’ by the boules We’ve been pretty modest about it, only mentioning it one hundred or so times in the last 12 months, but The Resident reigns supreme when it comes to interbusiness boules competitions. At last year’s F r e n c h Fe s t , the duo of studio manager Lewis Forsaith (who is French) and managing director Matthew Wheeler (who can ask for two chocolate croissants and a baguette, in French) won the first staging of the event. Now once again local firms will compete for The May Gurney Cup in The Business Boules Competition, held on Friday 16th July, in front of the Old Town Hall in Market Square, Horsham.

For the kids...

The Leaders team get some top tips during last year’s competition There is a prize for Best French Fancy Dress too, and it’s well worth making the effort, not least because you’ll have more chance of getting your picture in the paper! The aim is to raise money for local charities whilst having some fun. The event is limited to 16 teams of two people, so enter early as it is expected to be very popular. To enter please send details by email (info at the end of this article) and bring along an entry fee of £10 per team on the day. The knock out competition will

start from 12:15pm (team times will be confirmed) and it is planned that the final will finish at about 2pm. A donation will be made by the Rotary Club to the winning team’s chosen charity. Email your entry, including details of Business name, team name, contact name, number and email, and a nominated charity, to John Le Rossignol at jleross@attglobal.net on behalf of the Rotary Club of Horsham.

“This is a novel experience for us”, said the lead singer of  the  covers  band  Speedboatz, “as most of the places we  play  have  nicotinestained  ceilings  and  you can’t  jump  around  as  your shoes get stuck to the floor!” But at the Odyssey show, held at Windlesham House School on Saturday and Sunday, it wasn’t just HRH Princess Michael of Kent (who opened the festival) who received VIP treatment. It is a truly spectacular setting worthy of a great event ,which hundreds of people were treated to at the weekend. The grounds of the school provides a perfect amphitheatre, forming a sort of low-gradient half pipe which not only guarantees a good viewpoint for all, but also creates a sense of a safe, enclosed atmosphere. The event, held in aid of the

children's medical research charity Sparks, saw 1,500 local primary school children from Ashington, Findon, Shipley, Shoreham, Storrington, Washington and Worthing, as well as pupils from Little Windlesham and Garden Cottage Nursery, give fine performances during Saturday on the rock concert stage to the delight of the audience. As it was for the bands a day later, it must have been a memorable experience for the youngsters to perform on such a stage. Flanked by giant screens and two side stages, the set would have been more than adequate for a major music festival! The Saturday evening spectacular included airshows, messages from the astronauts aboard the international space station, music, fireworks, lights on the hills and a parachute team, while the Windlesham House children gave a

show to be remembered. There was also a funfair, a shopping village and on Sunday afternoon performances from local bands culminating with the Bootleg Beatles. While Sunday wasn’t quite so busy, there was still plenty to keep the crowd entertained, with some of the parents enjoying old hits by the likes of The Jam, the Undertones, Cockney Rebel and of course the Beatles over a glass of wine or two, as well as new music from the likes of Will and the People and Horsham band Last Letter Read. Richard Foster, Headmaster of Windlesham House School said: “It was a simply fantastic weekend and I cannot express in words how proud I was of Windlesham. “There were several times when I just stopped and pinched myself to check it was not a dream. The atmosphere throughout was fabulous.”

Hooray for Bollywood The extra Bollywood tuition paid off for students of Horsham School of Dance during their summer show at the Capitol on Saturday. The dancers received coaching from a Bollywood expert before the show, which added extra spice to the two performances. In the first half, 200 performers played out the story of The Secret Garden, which begins in India, through a number of styles including ballet and tap. The second half featured more contemporary styles such as jazz and modern, with dancers aged from three to forty performing songs from famous stage and screen productions. Three girls received a rose as they are leaving

the company. Katrin Williams is hopefully heading off to dance college, and Phoebe Wilson will be studying film. Another girl, Kelly Fitzgerald, was unable to take part in the show after hurting her leg while practising on grass! Kelly was invited on to the stage as well at the end of the show. Principal Rosemary Walters said: “Two girls, Lucy and Claire Howard, stepped in and learned Kelly’s routines in just a week, which was a great effort.” Horsham School of Dance has been running since 1925, with Rosemary only its third principal, and runs classes for boys and girls aged three and up.

A friendly face at our local nature reserves is moving on, while the Golden Ringed Dragonfly is spotted for the first time at Warnham, writes Neil Henry

Surrey you’re leaving, Sam

Sam Bayley has been based at Warnham Nature Reserve for seven years

A well-known face at the Reserve, Sam Bayley, the warden, is moving on to a post with the National Trust in Surrey. Since making his first tentative appearance at the Reserve around seven years ago, Sam had become something of a legend with his enthusiasm for, and knowledge of, all forms of wildlife. We will certainly miss his expertise and wish him well in his new job. It was even suggested that he might wish to visit on his days off. The Friends of Warnham hosted a Bird Ringing evening on Tuesday 22nd June. This was a ‘ticket only’ event, in order to keep the numbers to a manageable level. A table was set up at the far end of the meadow and about 25 visitors were kept enthralled by Sam Bayley, Wes Attridge, (both licensed

bird-ringers) ably assisted by Jake Everitt . In between handling the different birds, explanations and anecdotes were provided by all three. Mist nets had been set up in the reedbed and a steady flow of captures in cotton drawstring bags was produced. These included a Magpie, Chiffchaffs, Bluetits, Great Tits, Willow, Garden and Reed Warblers, Wren, Blackcaps, Robin, Chaffinch and, the highlight of the evening, a Kingfisher (below). All the birds were released unharmed, after recording weights, measurements and other details. A Golden Ringed Dragonfly, a new record for the site, was also caught. Another bird ringing demonstration will be held on Sunday 19th September between 7-9am. This, too, is an ‘all-ticket’ event and advance reservations must be made. The Friends’ next event

will be an evening walk on the Reserve on 13th July. Details are in the Countryside Activities leaflet from Horsham District Council and on the Friends website www.friendsofwarnhamlnr.org.uk Inside the Visitors Centre, the honey bees have been returned to the demonstration hive and the harvest mice are flourishing. The first releases of the captivebred mice have already taken place at Chesworth Farm. An exhibition of paintings by

Gordon Crossley, a noted artist, will adorn the walls of the Visitor Centre until September. All are welcome to visit! On the Millpond, one of the pairs of nesting Common Terns hatched their chicks. One of the other pair was found dead and its partner may still be in the area. Sightings have been made of an unusual dark-coloured visitor – identified as a Kalij Pheasant (spp Moffetti) – most probably an escapee from a nearby shoot.

Next part of the Twilight Saga. Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger as Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a vampire continues her quest for revenge. Starring: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson (-29th Jul )

Toy Story: The New Batch!

This cuddly unicorn features velvety-soft, snow-colored fur with sparkly gold and pink accents. He sports a signature mythical golden horn and a fun-to-comb mane and tail. Buttercup’s durable plastic eyes are both charming and scratch-resistant. Hypo-allergenic. Ages 3 and up.

This retro-inspired toy has flashing red LED eyes and a blaster cavity that actually spits out real sparks when he’s rolled along on his sturdy rubber wheels. Sparks also sports telescoping arms with working pincers, and an elevator action that raises his entire body to new heights

The Fisher-Price Chatter Telephone is a classic pull toy that has been inspiring giggles for many generations, while building motor skills and balance.

Huge buzz for They’re back - and we can’t wait. Even in the company of some of the greatest animated movies of all time - Up, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc, Ratatouille - Toy Story still stands out as being among the greatest achievements so far by Pixar Studios. And as the films continue to reach new heights, there’s nothing to suggest that the next instalment will be anything other than a wonderful cinematic experience. Especially at The Capitol theatre in Horsham, where Toy Story 3 will be shown in Disney Digital 3D for at least two weeks when it opens on Friday, July 23rd. Woody, Buzz and our favourite gang of toy characters return, but there are plenty of new faces too, as you can see from the line up here, including Lots-o’Huggin’ Bear, a jumbo, extra-soft

teddy bear with a pink and white plush body and a velvety purple nose. Woody and Buzz had accepted that their owner Andy would grow up someday, but what happens when that day arrives? In the third instalment, Andy is preparing to depart for college, leaving his loyal toys troubled about their uncertain future. Lee Unkrich (codirector of “Toy Story 2” and “Finding Nemo”) directs this highly anticipated film, and Michael Arndt, the Academy Award-winning screenwriter of Little Miss Sunshine, brings his unique talents and comedic sensibilities to the proceedings. Tom Hanks and Tim Allen

reprise their roles as the voices of Woody and Buzz, and the film also features the vocal talents of Joan Cusack, Don Rickles, Wallace Shawn, John Ratzenberger, Estelle Harris, John Morris, Laurie Metcalf, R. Lee Ermey, Whoopi Goldberg and Michael Keaton. On the back of some stunning reviews after its US opening, Toy Story 3 broke the record of Shrek the Third as the biggest single day gross for an animated film. For what it’s worth, review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 99% of critics have given the film a positive review based on 208 reviews, and here at The Resident we find that specific website to be a good guide. Owen Gleiberman from Entertainment Weekly gave the

film an A, saying: “Even with the bar raised high, Toy Story 3 enchanted and moved me so deeply I was flabbergasted that a digitally animated comedy about plastic playthings could have this effect.” Gleiberman also wrote in the next issue that he, along with many other grown men, cried at the end of the movie. Hey, if I want to cry I’ve got Homeward Bound on DVD.... Anyway, book your tickets up early as it will be a sell-out on those early nights. Call the Capitol Box Office on 01403 750220.

Weird news from Planet Earth

Eye on the world

A Canadian filmmaker has replaced his own false eye with a camera - and is to let the world see what he sees. Toronto-based Rob Spence, 36, lost his right eye in a shooting accident on his grandfather's farm as a teenager, reports the Daily Telegraph. He has built a new false eye containing a wireless video camera that runs on a tiny three-volt

battery. It contains a wireless transmitter, which allows him to transmit what he is seeing in real time to a computer.

One cheeky monkey

A Chinese man who saved a onearmed, onelegged monkey says the primate has paid him back by killing his chickens. Li Chun, from Yunnan province, says the monkey has become a member of his family but copies everything Li does. When it saw him crack some eggs to make a meal it went into the hen coop and smashed all of

the eggs it could find. And when Li slaughtered a chicken, the monkey killed about 80 chickens

Lab tests have revealed that a replica World Cup trophy seized by police in Colombia is made out of cocaine. The 14in statue was found in a delivery crate at Bogota airport. The crate was in an airmail warehouse waiting to be sent to an address in Spain, airport anti-drug chief Jose Piedrahita said. The World Cup replica was

mixed with acetone or gasoline to make it mouldable.Meanwhile, a submarine built by drug-traffickers was found in Ecuador!

The Cocaine Cup

Golden Vuvuzela

A Russian businessman has paid almost £20,000 to have a £2 plastic Vuvuzela covered in expensive white gold and encrusted with precious stones. Linz-based jeweller Klemens Pointner who specialises in providing tailor-made items for Russian clients said he met the businessmen at a trade fair in Moscow.

Pointner refused to reveal his customer's identity - but said the white gold-clad Vuvuzela features a one-carat diamond.

A motorcyclist escaped serious injury when he collided with a black bear that unexpectedly ran across a northwestern New Jersey highway. The motorcyclist was taken to hospital, where he was treated for minor injuries and later re-

leased. The bear also survived and walked into the woods.

HSO’s sterling tribute to John Review: Horsham Symphony Orchestra 19th June, The Capitol There was an essentially local feel to the HSO concert at the Capitol Theatre, being packed with supporters for their own town orchestra, a local soloist, and the world premiere of a commissioned work by a Sussexbased composer. Added to that, the Brahms symphony which constituted the second half of the programme was dedicated to the memory of long-time HSO player and supporter John Harry, who died two months ago. His widow Audrey, also associated with the HSO for very many years, must have been immensely moved by the performance of the symphony, the orchestra obviously playing their hearts out in tribute to their dear friend John. But back to the beginning! It is often difficult to "sell" a contemporary work to its first audience, but conductor

Steve Dummer managed it excellently, with a brief introduction which left us in no doubt as to the treat in store for us. Julian Broughton's Symphony in E is composed in the traditional four movement structure, but there tradition ends.. He writes on a big scale with enormous attention to detail, and the wind parts especially provided brilliant shafts of colour to the script and a real challenge to the HSO wind section, which rose as always to the occasion. The second movement, starting with shimmering strings reminiscent of SaintS a e n s ' ‘Aviary’, was quite delightful, and the last passacaglia s h o we d Broughton's skills both as a contrapuntist and an orchestrator. After such an intense listening

experience, the Mozart 4th violin concerto proved perfect programming, with its light orchestration and irrepressible charm bringing the audience back to familiar territory. Here the soloist was local musician Sara Stagg (pictured), who played with sparkling dexterity and stylistically elegant approach throughout. The second movement showed a lovely breadth of line and real communication with the orchestra, and the final rondo - with its wittily contrasting dance episodes - was charm personified. It is easy the think of conductor Steve Dummer as a charismatic, ebullient front man for the HSO; but in fact this belies a steely grasp of even the most tortuous of scores and an extraordinary ability to focus the orchestra. The HSO last performed Brahms 2nd symphony in 1997, and I wrote then that they played it with conviction and panache. This time they again played with conviction and panache but with an added passion, making an unbeatable combination well deserving of the tumultuous applause at the end of yet another superb concert.

It was easy for the dogs, although some of the owners inevitably struggled on this course.

The Breed for Speed! Dogs can’t take part on the Krypton Factor, so instead they have agility courses to compete on. Hundreds of dogs competed in a huge event hosted by Bridge House Dog Agility Club at Horsham Rugby Club over the weekend. An array of challenging courses was set up on Saturday, while Sunday the event continued in the hands of the Surrey Agility Club. Animals and their owners had to negotiate a course of jumps, tunnels, climbs, and even the odd hoop or see saw! Lesley Bridle of Bridge House Dog

Agility Club (www.bridgehouseagility.com) said: “It’s always as much about the social side of the event as the competitions. “It’s a great chance for us to all get together and have a day of doggy madness!” There was a brief moment of drama off the course, as a small bonfire started at the edge of the woods got out of control, but the fire service were called and quickly extinguished the blaze. And after that, the animals could relax, shaking their legs off with an occasional burst around the circuit!

The Snack Wagon and the Youth Support Team are operating again in Horsham Park on Friday evenings this summer until the end of August. Youth workers involved in both successful projects will engage with the young people who often gather in Horsham Park and other open spaces across the Horsham District on Friday evenings during the summer months. The Snack Wagon initiative aims to increase young people’s awareness about the effects of alcohol and to empower them to make informed and responsible choices. There are a range of activities available, such as real ‘beer goggles’, which helps young people to assess their alcohol unit intake.

Cast raise the roof at Capitol Forest and Millais raised the roof at the Capitol Theatre, Horsham, last week with their amazing production of Billy Elliot. Thanks to the Billy Youth Theatre initiative, youth groups and schools are for the first time able to perform a shorter version of this well known, inspirational story, set in the North East of England against the background of the historic 1984/85 miners’ strike. For 13-year old Ed Goacher who played Billy this was the first time he had taken to the stage in such a performance. He said: ‘I was a bit nervous at first as I hadn’t ever had a dance or singing lesson in my life!’ said Ed. On stage however there was no sign of his inexperience; his powerful performance as the young Billy struggling against his

family to pursue his dream of becoming a dancer, was exceptional, acting, singing and dancing his way into the hearts of the audience. The relationship on stage between Billy and Mrs Wilkinson, played by 15-year old Sophie O’Shea, was heart-warming with Sophie bringing a strong authority to the role with just the perfect balance of softness and humour. Whilst Ed held the spotlight, he was wonderfully supported by the amusing and slightly batty grandma, played by Phoebe Verbeeten, his defiant Dad and older brother, played by Dylan Marshal and Calum Snape and the endearing and very funny Michael played by Abdul Ahmed. Not only were the onstage performances electric, the musical production and the band,

made up of pupils from both schools, were sensational, bringing the story to life with a roller-coaster of musical emotion – humour, sadness, anger and joy. The whole show filled the theatre with such energy that you could have got up and danced along, and culminated in the fantastic ‘Solidarity’ which saw the whole cast packing the stage for a truly fitting finale. Full recognition must go to Mrs Helen Sykes, Millais School, and Mrs Jane Bowen-Melfi, Forest School, who worked tirelessly to put on such a wonderful show. If this is anything to go by, this will hopefully be the first of many future joint productions. Review submitted to The Resident

A new dimension in TV technology

Sakakini

The snappily named Panasonic TXP50VT20 50” 3D TV is available at Aurac

Your Local Jeweller & Pawnbroker GOLD & SILVER WANTED New or Scrap Don’t post it Use it to get instant Cash If you can not get to us at our shop, we can arrange home visits. Or why not earn extra cash and hold a gold party !

Television technology has moved on at a rapid rate in recent years. We have moved from square sets to widescreen, from big and deep tube televisions to slim LCD and Plasma panels, from analogue to digital and high definition. The latest development is the move to 3D, which many in the audio visual industry think might be the biggest jump in technology since the change from black and white to colour. Graham Russell of Aurac Sound & Vision said: “We have just had the new 50" Panasonic 3D television set up for demonstration at our Horsham store and it is amazing. “Customer feedback from those that have seen it so far has been really positive" When most people think of 3D they think of cheap cardboard glasses that didn't really work, and Jaws 3, but the technology has moved on a huge amount in recent years. Graham explains: “We have moved on a long way since the days of red and green glasses that gave you a blurred, off colour and quite non-3D image. “The new TVs use something called active shutter glasses, which talk to the TV to sync up the image, the end result is that it is now possible to get a full high definition 3D signal, so the picture quality you can get is amazing. “In fact because of the technology used it is possible to get a

better, sharper image than most cinemas and the 3D being shown in pubs.” This fact is being backed up by the specialist AV press who have been very critical of 3D attempts in the past, but now are already giving out several awards for the latest 3D TVs. So what can you watch in 3D? Well so far, not a lot, but that is all set to change. We are beginning to see the launch of 3D films onto the market on Blu-ray, the Playstation 3 already has 3D games available and Sky will launch a 3D channel later in the year for its HD subscribers and it has been confirmed that all Freesat HD boxes are 3D ready if the BBC or ITV wanted to launch a 3D service. With all the buzz surrounding big Hollywood 3D films such as Avatar and Toy Story 3 it won’t be long before there is a lot to see. "I was very sceptical about 3D before we had this Panasonic in", says Graham of Aurac, "but I am now a total convert, the technology is simply amazing. “During the French Open Tennis we had a live 3D feed to the store and it felt like you were sitting in the crowd. There isn't a lot of 3D content at the moment, but that is set to change, and in the meantime because of the technology behind the TV this is the best 2D TV Panasonic have ever made as well." The Panasonic TX-P50VT20 50" 3D TV is currently on show at the Aurac Sound & Vision store in Piries Place Horsham.

Mike Andrews had his name pulled from a wheelbarrow last week and was announced the winner in the search to find a ‘green-fingered’ tenant for the newly created allotment area at The Greets Inn, Warnham. Owners Natalie and Duncan Entwistle created an allotment area whilst redesigning the pub’s gardens, ahead of summer. The couple offered the chance of

‘growing your own’ to anyone keen to do so, living nearby, asking that anyone interested make themselves known, with the winner being selected at random, pulled from a wheel barrow. Tenancy of the allotment comes free of charge on the proviso that the pub could purchase a percentage of whatever is harvested in the future, for use in the Greets Inn kitchen.

Businesses needed in hunt for future stars So we’re not Spain or Holland, and Andy Murray will still ‘win a grand slam one day’, but it’s not all doom and gloom! We did great at the last Olympics - with stars like swimmer Rebecca Adlington bringing home Great Britain’s biggest haul of gold medals since 1908! Here in the Horsham district, we’re trying to push for even more success in 2012. A new community partnership is set to launch an exciting scheme to encourage and support young sports women and men in the district to achieve their goals of becoming future Champions and Olympians.

The Fund (for more details see below) will be launched on Sunday July 25th at the ‘Sparks in the Parks’ event in Horsham Park with an Inter –Business Sports Competition and we are

looking for businesses who are up for a challenge. The competition consists of teams of 4 people who will compete against each other in 6 fast moving, easily accessible sports. Each sport will only last for a minute or two per person...... so we are not looking for endurance or skills which require a lifetime of practice.... just 4 competitive fun-loving people who can represent your Company and bring you success. The Sports involved are: l Golf (60 seconds per team member hitting balls with velcro onto an archery-like target) l Netball/Basketball (60 seconds per team member to score as many goals) l Batak (a quick-fire reaction game...60 seconds per team

member) l Rowing (60 seconds on a rowing machine per team member) l Cycling (60 seconds on a cycling machine per team member) l Table Tennis (60 seconds per team member against a table tennis robot) Each 4-person team will undertake each sport and there will be cups and medals for the winning team in each sport and for the Overall Winning Team. Participating teams will pay £25 which will help provide the initial monies for the Funds. An Entry Form for teams is attached right...

Can I raise my company profile even more at this event? Yes - by becoming a ‘Set for Success’ Launch Partner! Businesses wishing to become a Business Partner of ‘Set for Success’ will be asked to sponsor one of the 6 Sports Events, or the overall Event.

Give Dodgeball a go at Sparks day

Who doesn’t want to try Dodgeball, really? You’ll soon have the chance to follow in the footsteps of White Goodman (below) and Peter La Fleur, as Horsham aims for sporting glory at Sparks in the Park on 25th July.

If you don’t know what Urban Rebounding is, well, it’s aerobics on a trampoline.

That aside, Horsham Park Bowls Club will also be offering a free Open Day as part of the event. All activities are free and coaches are on hand to help, advise and en-

Open House at Victorian New St. home

Henry Adams focus on rural homes

property

Newly built bungalow West Horsham: £425,000 Different stages of life bring different  needs  in  our  choice  of  home, based  not  only  our  preferred lifestyle,  but  considerations  such as  convenience,  a  safe  environment, ease of maintenance and saving on unnecessary costs.  The current economic situation has highlighted for many the cost of maintaining their home and gardens, and the increasing price of fuel, parking for work or shopping, and running their vehicles. With parking in and around Horsham town centre at a premium, the rare opportunity of a newly built detached bungalow in a lovely private plot with ample parking and car barn on the popular west side of Horsham and easily accessible to Horsham town centre and station is an option which may solve some of these problems. Recently constructed to a high specification by local company, Churchlands Homes, who have been building individual quality homes in the Horsham area for the past twelve years, Farmlea is likely to tick all the right boxes if you’re looking for a special home that offers easy maintenance, stylish design and lovely gardens in a secluded yet convenient setting. Enjoying the benefits of an established residential area with neigh-

bours close enough to provide security but set in a secluded position, the bungalow has been extremely well

designed and features very spacious accommodation. There is a generous and welcoming entrance hall, fabulous kitchen and breakfast/dining room fitted with light Zebrano style cabinets by Johnson & Johnson under granite work tops and with quality integrated appliances. A large double aspect south and west facing living room has doors leading out to the terrace and overlooks the lovely gardens. The master bedroom also enjoys views over the

garden with doors leading out. The master bedroom en-suite and the main bathroom are fitted with be-

spoke Porcelanosa contemporary sanitary ware, and are fully tiled with Porcelanosa designer tiles. Other features include gas central heating, a 10 year NHBC buildmark warranty, an alarm system and security features to the front door and windows, a pressurised hot water system, full double glazing and a heat recovery system, as well as new carpets and ceramic floor tiling. This is a particularly delightful and secluded plot which enjoys a south and westerly aspect, and has been professionally landscaped to provide a very private and established setting rare to find within easy reach of Horsham town centre. The property is approached over a gravel driveway leading to a generous parking area and an oak framed car barn. Due to the size and spacious layout of the bungalow, early interest has not only been from those seeking to downsize from larger properties in less accessible locations but also those with older children seeking the independence of being able to walk without reliance on the parental taxi service and couples wanting access to Horsham and the station for work without parking worries and costs. The property is available for immediate occupation through Courtney Green on 252222.

In an editorial of the front page of the property section of The Resident (25th June 2010) we published details of a detached cottage in West Grinstead for sale, under the headline ‘Superb Sussex Stud’. The Resident has been asked to clarify that, although the property offered for sale through Guy Leonard and Company forms part of the Old Sussex Stud, the cottage is no longer part of the Sussex Stud, which is under separate ownership. We are happy to clarify that the Sussex Stud is not for sale. The property for sale was originally converted from the water tower and is offered at a guide price of £439,950. For further details contact Guy Leonard & Company on 01403 248222.

Property prices sneak up by 3%

Property prices in the UK rose during the first half of this year, it has been claimed. According to new figures from Nationwide, the market went up by 3% over the six-month period. Currently, the typical price of a residence stands at £170,111, the firm suggested. Responding to the findings, Martin Gahbauer, Nationwide's chief economist, said: "The month of June presented a picture of broad stability for the housing market. The price of a typical UK property rose by a seasonally adjusted 0.1% month-on-month." However, the annual rate of inflation should continue to drift lower, he added. In a bid to boost the sector, the new government announced the abolition of HIPs when it took power.

New St. open house Fox & Sons will be holding an open house day on Saturday, 24th July at a property in New Street, Horsham. The spacious and well maintained characterful three bedroom Victorian terraced house is situated in a convenient location within Horsham.

It is for sale with a guide price of £260,000. To arrange a visit or for more details on the open day (at 23pm) contact Fox & Sons on 01403 217417.

The country specialists Henry Adams offers a wide range of rural homes Nothing could be more idyllic than a country cottage garden on a summer’s day. For anyone looking to dip their toe in the water of country life, Henry Adams specialise in offering a wide range of rural properties for rental. “Landlords who choose to place their properties with us can have confidence in our depth of experience in handling letting countryside homes, from 1960s family houses to pretty cottages and some with quirky character,” said Richard Town, manager of their Horsham Lettings office who also lets properties for the National Trust locally. Henry Adams tend to offer for let the slightly more rural homes alongside town centre properties, which mirrors their sales office portfolio. “Many of our properties are near farms and villages,” commented Richard, “so we get quite a few enquiries from families moving out of London who would like their children to enjoy a country upbringing, but don’t want to be too far from a 24hour Tesco or a station.” Renting a country home gives the opportunity to experience country style living without the long term commitment to buy. It also enable

the needs of the sector and consumers. We are now lending to people with smaller deposits and waiving many of the fees. This can save around £2,500 which can make such a difference," he added. Individuals who chose to use the deal will also get 12 months free building and contents insurance. Simon Rubinsohn, chief economist at the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, recently said supply is starting to outstrip demand, which may see a reduction in house prices.

CGT rise won’t dampen appeal of buy-to-let

Paul Weller Leaders Local letting specialists Leaders are confident that buy-tolet will remain a popular investment option despite the rise in the rate of Capital Gains Tax (CGT) to 28% for higher-rate tax payers. The increase, which does not affect taxpayers paying lower rate tax (20% or less), was not as sharp as many had anticipated, and came into effect from midnight June 22 2010. The annual exempt amount

for CGT remains at £10,100 and is index linked for future tax years. Says Leaders’ managing director Paul Weller: “This increase to 28% still sees CGT rates remaining lower than three years ago, when they were up to 40%, before the 18% rate was introduced by Labour. “We do not believe this increase will dampen the appeal of buy-to-let as an investment. Buy-to-let’s potential to provide an annual rental yield, as well as to provide capital gains in the long-term, has long appealed to a wide range of investors and will continue to appeal as an enduring asset class.” Leaders point out that, with rents now rising as they are because of high demand, the income earned through property - rental yields of 6% are now achievable - is very appealing compared with the derisory interest rates currently available of around just 1%. “Stocks and shares are no more enticing,” says Mr Weller.

“You only have to look at what is happening to BP, a blue-chip British company whose share price has almost halved over the last 6 weeks, and who may consider suspending dividend payments. Property values tend to rise over the long-term making bricks and mortar a more solid investment.” Leaders are reporting rising rental demand in the 45 towns and cities in which they operate across the South. Good quality rented accommodation is in short supply, and with more properties for sale following the abolition of HIPS, there is now plenty of choice for landlords to increase their portfolios. At the same time buy-to-let lenders are at last beginning to offer more and better buy-to-let mortgage deals, including the welcomed introduction of some higher loan-to-value products. Says Mr Weller: “The Private Rented Sector currently accommodates 13% of UK households and needs more investment if it is to continue to provide a good

choice of homes to the millions of people who either choose to rent, or rent because they are unable to buy “Done with the right advice and guidance, buying to let is an excellent long-term investment. But it must be done with the help of a qualified and experienced specialist such as ourselves. Unfortunately, despite the raft of legislation governing residential lettings, letting agents themselves remain unregulated. “This means anyone can set up a letting agent, with no knowledge or understanding of the market and legislation which applies to it. “Landlords must take care when choosing a letting agent, and be aware of the importance of the role that the agent plays in the success, or otherwise, of their investment.” For advice you can trust on renting or letting in Horsham, please contact Leaders on 01403 217585 or email horsham@leaders.co.uk

Katrina Smith Interior Design Specialist I am always banging on about storage in these articles, and people are always moaning they don't have enough. So why don't we tackle these issues. Believe me if you tackle them now, whether with the help of a professional designer or on your own, it will give an immediate sense of relief. To create a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere in any living space you will need to have your storage blend in with existing pieces. Trunks, whether antique or modern that also act as a lamp tables or occasional tables, also make great homes for the children's toys or books or a whole host of clutter that we just

26 - 27 West Street Horsham West Sussex

can't bear to be parted from! Rattan baskets lined up on shelves look great and will hide all sorts of things. If you don't have enough room left on your shelves, then lined up on the floor will look just as good. I love fabric covered ottomans. They have a multitude of uses from filing cabinets, to tables, to seating and at the same time house your clutter. A really good investment! Space is important in any property so use all the nooks and crannies in your home – add fitted cupboards or shelving, right up to the ceiling if necessary and then have fronts put on that will match the existing style of your home. If you don't want them to stand out, then paint them the same colour as your walls. I find that painting the wood in an eggshell will give a beautiful matt finish, whilst blending with the walls.

Facelift for German models It just looks like a great car, doesn’t it? Well, it ought to be, as the 550i M Sport saloon will set you back £53,615. But you might feel it’s worth every penny.

Dream up a new concept

Ford leads the way

Who would have thought that young boys would grow up dreaming of one day owning a Renault! We had examples of Citroen’s dazzling concepts a couple of weeks ago, and now it’s the turn of their French compatriots. Powered by an electric motor, DeZir is proof that electric vehicles and a love of cars are by no means incompatible. It is powered by an electric motor mounted in a mid-rear position to optimise weight distribution over the front and rear wheels. The vertically-mounted 24kWh lithium-ion battery is located behind the benchseat and provides the car with a range of 100 miles. Batterycooling is ensured not only by the air channelled from the front to the back of the car, but also – and above all – by the flow of air that enters through the lateral scoops concealed behind the aluminium panels on either side of the body. The basic motor is the same as the unit used for Renault's production electric cars, although an evolution has enabled its power and torque to be uprated to 110kW (150ch) and 226Nm respectively. The DeZir project is the first to have been led by Laurens van den Acker and marks the start of a sequence of concept cars that will provide an insight into Renault Design's new vision for the future. The public will get its first opportunity to see DeZir at the Paris Motor Show.

£3575 Ford maintained its leadership of the UK vehicle market for the year to the end of June, at the same time as it announced a new pricing strategy across its passenger car range. Ford Fiesta and Ford Focus are the clear UK best sellers for 2010, in first and second positions, respectively. Ford Fiesta sales totalled 57,508 in the first half of 2010 while Ford Focus sales were 48,314. Ford Fiesta is the firm favourite with retail customers with a total of 31,654 retail sales for the year to date. During June, according to official figures released today by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, Ford was a

clear leader in retail car sales, with 10,337 registrations, and in commercial vehicles with 5,447 sales. To maintain the integrity of its business, Ford consciously capped less profitable short-cycle rental business during June, which reduced fleet sales for the month and placed Ford second in terms of overall car sales with 23,716 registrations. The announcement of a new pricing regime for Ford passenger cars on July 1, which makes the value of Ford cars much more obvious, has resonated well with private customers. Ford is reducing the official recommended list prices on its medium and small cars from

August 2. This follows similar action on Ford's large car range in April. Ahead of the August price changes, dealers will be offering special promotions which mirror the coming lower prices. Nigel Sharp, managing director Ford of Britain, said: "In June we took an early decision to cap the volume of shortcycle rental business in order to protect the residual values of vehicles bought by fleet and retail customers. The appeal of our best ever vehicle range is reflected in rising retail sales, boosted by our new pricing strategy, which is leading the market in making the whole purchase process more transparent."

motors The Aston Martin DB9 range has received a complete package of styling, engineering and equipment enhancements. Subtle styling changes freshen the DB9’s appearance, with a new front bumper, bright finish radiator grille and a re-shaped lower intake featuring bright hexagonal mesh.

New headlight bezels, re-styled sills, silver brake calipers, 20-spoke diamond turned alloy wheels and clear rear light lenses complete the external revisions. Under the skin the DB9’s passive damping system has been replaced by a new Adaptive Damping System (ADS). The ADS is offered as

standard across the range. A new tyre pressure monitoring system, a revised Bluetooth microphone system and the addition of a new Double Apex alloy finish trim and Bang & Olufsen hi-fi options broaden the DB9’s specification. The DB9 is available as either Coupe or Volante (convertible)

with rear mid-mounted six-speed manual gearbox as standard or optional ‘Touchtronic 2’ six-speed automatic transmission. Production is already underway, with deliveries commencing in July. Prices start from £122,445 for the DB9 Coupe and £131,445 for the DB9 Volante.

Bowlers battle for the Bowl

Every year, Horsham and the Worthing club at Marine Gardens compete over two legs for the Centenary Bowl. The long friendship between the two clubs was cemented four years ago when Horsham’s chairman, Mike Power, donated a fine cut-glass bowl as the trophy. For the first two years, the Bowl stayed in Worthing, but last year a fine win saw it come to Horsham for the first time. This year’s first leg in Horsham was a nail-biting affair. At tea, Marine Gardens were 9 shots in the lead and fortunes fluctuated thereafter. Eventually, after a recount, Horsham was declared the winner by one shot, 110-109, the slenderest of leads to take to Worthing on 23rd July. Top rink for Horsham was Malcolm Bridgman, Doris Kelcher, Tony Venn and skip John Littleton (+9), with good support from Dennis Tribe (+5), Mike Power (+4) and Roy Smith (+1). In the Border League, Horsham kept up it’s good record, with a third win out of four against a strong Newdigate team, winning 8-2 on 1st July.

Trinity’s net result Keith Bradshaw, the chief executive of MCC, unveiled a new two lane practice net at Horsham Trinity Club last week. The nets have been built in the grounds of Greenway School, as a shared facility between the Club and the school. It will be used not only by the club membership but also by Greenway, meaning over 200 children will have access to the nets as well as the senior members of the club. Keith Bradshaw was so impressed with the club’s youth set up that he offered Horsham Trinity its own section at Lords for the first day of Australia vV Pakistan

on the 13th July, fee of charge. Uptake has been immense and the club already has a full coach and 120 names booked to go! The Club would like to show thanks to those who kindly helped to sponsor the building of the nets, without whose help, this project would not have been achievable: •£8,400 from the “106 Fund” via the Horsham District Council. •£10,000 from National Lottery •£3,000 from Co-Operative •£3,000 from North Horsham Area Council The club, which has played at Victory Road Recreation Ground since it was founded in 1921, run for Saturday senior sides and two Sunday senior sides. The Saturday 1st XI plays in Division 2 of the West Sussex Invitation Cricket League and are current holders of the Invitation League Knockout Cup. The 2nd XI play in Division 7 and the 3rd XI in Division 10. Trinity 4th XI also play league cricket, in the Stoner Conference and are the current holders of the Robbie Divall Knockout Cup. Trinity also field two Sunday Teams, and enter 1st and 4th team cup competitions on Sundays. Players wishing to enjoy a more relaxed style of match are most welcome in these sides. The Club also has a strong colts section, with 120 Junior playing members, fielding eight teams in the Identilam Cricket League ranging from Under 10's up to Under 16's.

The Atlantis team have enjoyed a great year in the pool and there has been some outstanding individual performances too

Atlantis pipped in nail-biting final gala Horsham’s competitive swimming club Atlantis has finished runners-up in a nail-biting conclusion to the Sussex League. This is the Club’s highest ever finish in the competition and is a further indication of the Club’s continuing and steady march forward. The final gala took place on Saturday night at K2 and pitted Atlantis against near neighbours Crawley and Mid Sussex Marlins. In last year’s competition, Atlantis finished third behind both clubs. The night lived up to the promise of high drama and the tightest of finishes, with the result in doubt right up until the final race. Although this final round included the top 3 finishers from last

year, only Atlantis and Crawley had gained enough points in previous galas to win the league this year. Mid Sussex Marlins, based at the Triangle in Burgess Hill, still had a very important part to play in the gala and were after maximum points from the final round to secure second place in the final league standings. All the teams were missing key personnel. Atlantis had suffered the big blow of losing one of the Club’s most reliable points gatherers, Cam Lambourne, to a freak cycling accident just days before the event. This did not however dampen the mood prior to warm up, and the spirit was one of quiet confidence and determination.

The gala started with all three teams generally sharing the points. A third of the way through the gala found Atlantis trailing the field with Crawley out in front. Gradually as the gala wore on the Atlantis swimmers started to claw their way back into contention. At the end of a strong middle session, Atlantis had overhauled Mid Sussex Marlins and had drawn level with Crawley. The final race of the evening is a mixed “squadron” relay with 8 competitors of boys and girls of different ages from each club swimming for double points. An announcement over the tannoy told all the teams that it was down to wire and that there was everything still to play for in the last race.

Crawley took an early lead and held onto it to the finish to finish just 4 gala points ahead of Atlantis by 347 points to 343, with Marlins on 318. The final points meant that Crawley finished top of the league with Atlantis just one league point behind in second place. Commenting on the result Head coach Bill Penny said “Many of our swimmers had to swim a lot of races tonight. I am thrilled by the effort and application they showed. “They all swam for each other to give us our best ever finish in the league - testimony to the team spirit within the club. We will have to see if we can go one better next season”. www.atlantishorsham.co.uk

All of the winners were presented their trophies by the Chairman of the Horsham District Youth Football League, Dave Wellbelove. All of the other boys received a medal as a memento for the season. A successful raffle and auction rounded off the evening with some much needed fundraising. Horsham Tigers’ Club Chairman Richard Harris, confirmed

that during the coming months, fundraising events will be held to mark the 40 year anniversary, and former Tigers players are encouraged to get in touch and join in the fun and share their memories The Club also wish to encourage any younger players (school years 3, 4 and 5) to get in touch if they wish to play football, and become a Horsham Tiger.

Jolyon chases Williams test

Jolyon (front) with Dean Stoneman

Luke - The forks are strong with that one! Luke Thomas shows the white route no mercy on his way to victory

Everything all white for trials ace Luke This month’s Horsham Riders Motor cycle trial took place on land near Walliswood. The trial was marked out on Saturday by local man John Charman along with Harry Ross and other helpers. The land was very dry due to weeks of hot weather but there was still some mud in ditches which had to be crossed. The expert white route was once again won by Gas Gas rider Luke Thomas, who lost two marks on the first scorecard followed by one on the second for a total of three marks for the day.

Just one point separated second and third, with Mr Honda Clint Legget on 7ml and Steve Farrall on 8ml. The blue route was won by new name Tom Horsburgh on 21ml. Head and shoulders above the other riders on the yellow route was John Yardley who lost 11ml on the first scorecard and 0ml on the second to win by 12ml from Mitch Brown. Adam Holloway and Bob Miles must have found the red route too demanding as both recorded DNFs. Report & pics By Steve Hook

Local racer Jolyon Palmer and rival Dean Stoneman pulled away in the chase to win a dream Formula One test with the Williams team by claiming a win apiece in rounds 9 and 10 of the FIA Formula Two Championship in Portimao, Portugal, this weekend. Palmer – son of former F1 driver and F2 champion Jonathan – ultimately tightened his stranglehold on the championship after romping to an assured lights-to-flag victory in the Algarve opener on Saturday afternoon before securing a solid second place on Sunday. Stoneman endured a disappointing race in the weekend’s opening contest when a clash with Austrian racer Philipp Eng left him way down the order and out of contention. But he hit back by winning Race two. The British duo now have a healthy lead in the overall championship ahead of their home event at Brands Hatch, Palmer leading Stoneman by 26 points - with the next nearest challenger, Austria's Philipp Eng, a further 70 points further back.
