Half a century landmark for Scarborough society Words & pictures by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
SCARBOROUGH Electronic Organ Society has been hitting the right notes for a staggering 50 years. And the special landmark anniversary year is particularly important to their chairman and publicity officer, 87-year-old Dennis York, who has been a member of the group for 47 years. A series of top concerts are to be held at their Scarborough College base over the next 12 months in celebration of the landmark. Dennis, said: “Who would have thought that Scarborough Electronic Organ Society would still be going strong after 50 years? It is unbelievable to think that it has stood the test of time and had so many different venues and people involved over the years.” The society started in 1965 and Dennis joined the group just two years later.

Totally Locally is right down the Scarborough street Words & Pictures by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
TOTALLY Socially at the Street was a huge Scarborough success. Organisers from The BEACH, Coast and Vale Community Action, Scarborough Jobmatch, Scarborough Urban Area Forum and Scarborough Totally Locally were delighted. Totally Socially brought together social enterprises, small businesses, independent traders and community groups from across Yorkshire to celebrate the great work they do in their communities and to inspire people to use enterprise as a way of bringing about positive change.
which is being used to rejuvenate communities, said: “You are the ‘they’ in ‘they should do something about that’” and “you don’t have to wait for permission to do it.” With the formal part of the day over participants flowed over into the Totally Locally marquee, set up in front of the Street to showcase independent traders, and enjoyed Totally Locally food and live music.
“It’s good exercise, as good as zumba, and it’s fun,” says Maureen Croft, who runs the group. Garland dancing harks back to the days when churches had earthen floors. “Each year, villagers left the mills to go and collect rushes from the marshes,” says Maureen. “They piled them on rush-carts and held a procession to the church to re-lay

Now they’re turning their attention to Dorian – rather Doreen – Gray!
The Picture of Doreen Gray
Doreen Gray has it all, a drive time radio show, a high ratings lifestyle programme on Even More 4 but, hitting 50, Doreen finds her face no longer fits the bill. At a school reunion she stumbles across a youthful self-portrait and makes a dark and dreadful deal.
LipService are looking for two teams of 20-30 members to perform in alternate showings of The Picture of Doreen Gray which is at the SJT from 5-8 November. It is open to anyone aged 16 plus, no experience is necessary. There will be workshops on 28-30 October and 4 November, from 6-8pm, to rehearse three musical numbers as well as developing material which will be filmed for inclusion in each of the performances.

Cover story continued… He explained: “I was an organ enthusiast and at that time I had two jobs including working at the Futurist Theatre where I went on to work for over 50 years. “I knew that there was a group who met up and I was friendly with a chap called Burt Wigglesworth who helped form it. “I went along to see the electronic organs at Goff and Davey Music Shop and listen to them being played, and I was hooked. “The club started to grow and had several venues including the old medical baths, behind the Castle Hotel and in the Concert Room at the main Library on Vernon Road, before taking up residence at the current base at Scarborough College in 1990.” Dennis has been a key player in helping the society grow and they regularly have up to 200 or more at their concerts. Dennis added: “I remember taking on doing the publicity and there were only around 40 or so coming to the concerts then. Myself and a couple of friends used to go out with posters and flyers all over Scarborough and slowly but surely the numbers increased.” This is a time of celebration for the society which also features King of the Keyboards and Spa Complex favourite Howard Beaumont as its vice president. Dennis said: “This is a special year for everyone involved with the group and we are holding a number of concerts including the 50th anniversary party at the Scarborough Fair Collection in May next year. “Our President Nicholas Martin will feature in that concert and he has performed in the May Holiday concerts for the past 10 years. “Scarborough Electronic Organ Society has played a huge part in my life and I hope it continues to flourish for many more years to come.”

Classic art gallery painting receives fresh new look
Words by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
ONE of Scarborough Art Gallery’s most popular paintings has returned to the gallery with a fresh new look.
Scarborough Electronic Organ Society Anniversary concerts: Monday October 20: Dirkjan Ranzijn, Monday November 19: Eddie Ruhier, Monday December 15: Michael Carr, Monday January 5 2015: Paul McCann, Monday January 26: Tony Stace, Monday February 16: Michael Wooldridge, Monday March 9: Robert Wolfe, Monday April 6: John Bowdler, Monday May 4: Elizabeth Harrison, Monday May 25: Nicholas Martin, Monday July 6: John Mann. All concerts (except May 25) to be held at Lisvane Hall, Scarborough College from 7.30pm. n For further details visit: www.scarborough-electronic-os.co.uk
Henrietta Rae’s Roses of Youth has recently gone back on display in the gallery after undergoing extensive conservation. The work was undertaken by conservators Gillian Walker (painting) and Mike Howden (frame), and was paid for by a grant of £5,000 from the Association of Independent Museums Pilgrim Trust Conservation Grant Fund, and £1,500 from the Friends of Scarborough Art Gallery. Friends of Scarborough Art Gallery chair Paul McCabe said: “Roses of Youth is a particularly fine example of romantic art. We’re very pleased to be able to contribute towards its conservation.” Henrietta Rae (1859-1928) was a prominent artist who made her name painting literary and classical subjects and portraits. She was influenced by Scarborough-born
artist Lord Leighton, who was also a neighbour of hers in London’s Holland Park. Roses of Youth was exhibited at The Royal Academy in 1907.

Hospice gardens receive top support Words by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
THE gardens at Saint Catherine’s Hospice have received a drastic makeover thanks to an international company. The hospice gardens are much admired thanks to the efforts of its team of volunteer gardeners who tend Saint Catherine’s grounds. But after such a wet winter, some of the biggest jobs in the hospice’s extensive gardens needed some heavy duty maintenance which only fully-equipped professionals could provide. The ISS team are pictured working on the gardens. Left to right are Dean Laverick, Antony Brook, Martyn Gray, Phil Robinson and Sasha Hilton
As the hedges and willows continued to grow, the hospice approached international company ISS for help. The company –
contracted to Northern Rail to upkeep all its stations – had helped Saint Catherine’s in the past and agreed to help again. David Severs, area manager for ISS, said the company had brought in a team of its workers to do the heavy gardening work at the hospice over a few weekends free of charge. “We’re bringing in hedge cutters, chippers, chain saws – it’s a bit more heavy duty than a pair of secateurs!” he said. “We’re just happy to help.” The hospice is always looking out for new helpers to join its team of regular volunteer gardeners. Call the hospice on Scarborough 351421 to find out more.

Time to talk again for historic debating society By Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
Colin Challen shows Rachel Drew and Lindy Rowley his display about Robert Swift
Displays all set to commemorate World War One
by Pete Spence
pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
A NOVEL way of commemorating the centenary of the start of World War One has been launched by Castle Community Network and Scarborough Museums Trust. Residents in the Castle Ward area of Scarborough are being invited to make WW1 displays to go in their windows. Those wishing to take part are invited to mount their displays in the last week of October (week commencing 27th) and if they inform the organisers of their display they can also enter a competition to win a first prize of £75, a second prize worth £25 or a third prize of two free year long entry passes to the Rotunda Museum and Scarborough Art Gallery. Entries should be sent to Castle Community Network at The Base, 46 Cross Street. The judges of the competition will be Rachael Drew, SMT’s Communities Curator, Jennifer Dunne, Collections Manager and Lindy Rowley, Chair, Castle Community Network.
Rachael said “This is an exciting opportunity for local residents to share the history of Scarborough as part of the World War One commemorations.” Vice Chair of Castle Community Network, Colin Challen has been working on his display, which records the life of his great uncle, Robert Swift. Robert signed up into the Royal Garrison Artillery, and served in France, where he died in 1919. Like thousands of other soldiers he died after the war ended from the flu epidemic. Before the war he worked in a bank on Falsgrave Road, and was a lay Methodist preacher, often walking up Troutsdale to deliver sermons in the now derelict chapel near Troutsdale Lodge. His widow, Lillian lived until she was 96 and died in 1980. They lived in North Marine Road. n Jennifer Dunne will run a short workshop on October 17 at 1pm for those needing help and advice for making their own display. Booking is essential and can be made by ringing 01723 374753.
Scarborough charity helps war veterans by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
THE Armed Forces charity, FirstLight Trust, based in Scarborough, is now seeing an upswing in the numbers of veterans that are coming through its doors. In addition, it has recently been appointed lead on all Red Alert Veteran cases within the Scarborough area. Red Alert signals those in danger of committing suicide. Over the last six months alone, Tony Viney, working with FirstLight Trust who looks after these Red Alerts, has helped many progress and save lives. Dorinda Wolfe Murray, one of the Founding Trustees, explains: “Within the last few months we have taken on ever increasing numbers of veterans who are in desperate straits emotionally and financially. The toxic mix of depression,
physical pain and self-medication of alcohol and drugs produces a no-win situation for everyone. “When we assess these guys we find that everything is inter-related. And once into this spiral it is difficult to get out of it. It often starts with loneliness and can end up with the police and prison. This increases the load on all the Emergency Services, at great financial cost to the community.” Support for FirstLight Trust is very strong locally and Dorinda adds: “We are reliant solely on private donations and as we support an ever-increasing number of veterans we desperately need more donations – anything is helpful; clothes, bric-a-brac – money!” n If you want to help out then visit their shop on Newborough or call 0845 519 9402.
THE Scarborough Forty Club is up and running again with a series of top debates. And, under the guidance of new president Alan Combes, this will be the 115th term of the historic club. Alan said: “I am extremely proud to be the new president of the Scarborough Forty Club and with plenty of humour and tolerance I am sure it will continue to flourish.” Meetings take place at the Friend’s Meeting House, Woodlands Drive, from 7.30-9.30pm every Thursday evening. Entrance is free and transport can be arranged if needed. The gentleman’s debating society motto is: We do not all think alike, but alike we all agree to think. A friendly welcome awaits any gentlemen who wish to take part in an entertaining evening of good humour and mental stimulus.

contribution to anti poverty initiatives, has handed back a proportion of its fee for each installation to LEAP (Let’s End All Poverty).
YCH has an extensive and highly proactive strategy in place to help tackle all aspects of poverty across the community.
Shaun Tymon, Yorkshire Coast Homes Chief Executive said, “Fuel efficiency is a key factor when it comes to fuel poverty, so energy efficient boilers and solar power are great ways for our tenants to keep heating costs low. The fact that Life’s Energy also makes a donation for every installation is indicative of their belief in the eradication of fuel poverty in our area.”
YCH’s valued partner Life’s Energy, a company with a showroom on Scarborough’s Falsgrave Road, has installed of a number of renewable energy systems in YCH properties and, in order to make a further

Quality care helps you stay independent In days gone by, people would turn to their extended family for assistance with their needs as they grew older, but with jobs and opportunities taking many of us away from our families, that’s not always a realistic option. But that doesn’t change the fact that many of us will need care for several years. When we talk about care, many of us instantly think of a residential home. However, this is no longer the only choice. Quality care providers like Bluebird Care offer assistance in your own home, so that you can remain independent for as long as possible. What’s more, the highly trained Bluebird Care team work to an exceptionally high standard and only provide the kind of care they’d want for themselves. All of the staff work hard to be their best, every single day – because the team know that to deserve the opportunity to deliver care to their customers, the staff have to be outstanding.
As Emma Finn, director of Bluebird Care in Scarborough and Bridlington, says: “High quality care is not just a vague hope, it is central to the ethos of Bluebird Care and everyone who works within it. It is our customers who are in a position to measure the quality of our care and they will always be the final arbiters of how good we are. Our care workers are the lifeblood of our business and we always value them, pay them well and treat them with respect.” The care provided can include helping with any everyday tasks around the home, such as getting in and out of bed, preparing meals, washing and ironing, personal hygiene and much more. There are normally one or more fairly short visits a day, but longer visits are also available, including overnight help or live-in care. n To find out more, visit www. bluebirdcare.co.uk or call 01723 588004.
The centre is at St James’s Church on Seamer Road, where a harvest service at 10.45am will be attended by the deputy mayor. The church brownie group will mark 100 years of brownie guiding and Scarborough Concert Band will perform from 2-3pm. The centre has various comfortable, modernised rooms, large and small, on three floors. They are used for arts and crafts, dance, pilates, exercise, music and children’s groups. Visitors will be able to see artwork created by arts and craft groups, a new ceramics studio, a display illustrating the creation of the centre and a community garden with sculptures installed a year ago. The centre’s Cockleshells café serves delicious food cooked on the premises and some of the best coffee in town. The centre’s rooms are available to hire for private functions. n For more information, ring Jan Brittain on 341466 or email her at home@stjamesarts.go-plus.net.
Filey Food Festival set to serve up a top treat By Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
THERE will be lots of tasty treats on offer when the very popular annual Filey Food Festival comes to the town on Saturday and Sunday 11 and 12 October. Taking place at the Evron Centre and the Crescent Gardens, there will be the ever popular The Blessed Olive, Lovitts the local fishmongers, The Coffee Cart, awardwinning pates from Albion Artisan Foods, Chilli Devil chilli sauces plus Yorkshire Ketchup and brown sauces, hand-made chocolates, local honey, vegetables, flowers, jams and chutneys plus many other exciting stands.
Swap your books Words by Dave Barry
A free book-swap event will be held at the Friends Meeting House in Scarborough on Saturday, from 10am to 3pm. “Bring along your unwanted books, take away the ones you want and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee,” says one of the organisers, Angela Nellis.
There will be cookery demonstrations in the concert hall with many local chefs. The street food area surrounding the Ale Tent includes venison burgers, hog roast, pizza, unusual pies, jerk chicken, crepes and free range rare breed sausages and even a local cider. There will be a Local Real Ale Trail with a 9 gallon barrel of beer for the winner – full details will be in the festival programme. Organiser Chris Elley said: “It is always a very exciting time of the year when we get ready for the food festival and all the wonderful produce it brings together. There is so much to see and taste and look at that there really is something for everyone.” “It is a fun event and an opportunity to welcome people into the Meeting House and, if they wish, find out about Quakers and how we worship.” A similar event last year was so successful that it is being repeated. The Friends Meeting House is in Quaker Close off Woodlands Drive, near the hospital.

Dear Editor I would like to share with your readers a picture I took at one of the recent firework events in Scarborough’s South Bay.
The 24Seven Travel bus Dear Editor
The displays are put on by the South Bay Traders Association and are fantastic.
I just wanted to take the time to say thanks to local business 24Seven Travel for our family trip to see Lee Evans.
It was a great sight across the Scarborough sky and enjoyed by many. Scarborough DAG Summer Fair
It was brilliant and we would not of had the opportunity to go if it wasn’t for you Paul Walker organising the tickets and the travel.

My brother in law had just lost his job; if that had not happened we would have tipped you more.
Dear Editor I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who came along to our summer fair.
We really hope what you’re doing is successful for you, it’s a great idea and we would definitely use again.
A total of £400 was raised on the day which will go into helping run Scarborough DAG.
Dear Editor The Scarborough Stitchers (there are 16 of us) thank all friends, families and those who came to our exhibition in August at the Ingrid Flute Gallery in Ravenscar.
The fair was opened by Scarborough Mayor and Mayoress Cllr Pat Marsburg and Hillary Groves, along with actress Brooke Kinsella MBE.
We enjoyed putting on the exhibition and appreciate the pleasure our display gave.
There was entertainment provided by the Hatton School of Arts plus a wide variety of stalls, a raffle plus a sponsored beard shave. It was a great day for everyone and I would like to thank everyone who took part and to Mencap for letting us hold the fair at their base. Ian Whitfield Scarborough DAG Chair

Dear Editor As one of the consultants who places regular adverts in the Scarborough Review, I would like to say thank you as I’m certain that this has been instrumental in successfully attracting lots of new members to my Slimming World Group. We are relocating to larger premises at Northstead Methodist Church on Monday October 6 and would love to welcome members old and new.
To mark this fabulous new launch at 7pm we have guest attendance from Slimming World’s Man of the Year 2014 Mr Brendan O’Donnell, who has lost over 11st, and his lovely wife Sarah, who has lost over 4st on our fabulously filling, family-friendly food optimising plan. Please come along to find out how you can participate in a welcoming, warm, friendly and supportive group whilst still eating all the foods you love. Susan Fieldsend
Dear Editor I would like to say what a refreshing media presentation the Scarborough Review is. It is a bright and colourful publication supported by local advertisers and institutions. A few years ago I led a debate for the 40 Club when we asked if Scarborough needed a second newspaper. I argued that it did, I lost that debate, but I am glad to see the Scarborough Review has proved me right. It is the perfect opportunity for local businesses and institutions to get their message across. Having seen the increase in pages and quality of the product I am sure you will succeed. Tony Jenkins, Shire Horse Farm
Sea Cliff Car Park Dear Editor I would like to share a photograph I took of Sea Cliff Car Park early one morning recently as it was littered with KFC rubbish.
Dear Editor I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who supported our new production “Doris the Dragon Show” at Scarborough Spa over the summer. Over 1,100 people came to see Doris and her fiery friends Dougal, Daisy, Dillon and Dusty perform their new show and we were all delighted with the kind comments received from families after the show. I would also like to thank local shops and businesses who displayed Doris posters and flyers, it was heartwarming to get their kind support.
Obviously the people who could not be bothered to put their waste into the bins provided got their KFC snack outside of Scarborough, but with our very own outlet on the way, is this a sign of things to come?
We look forward to returning to the Spa in 2015 with Doris the Dragon and invite families who came to the show to post a review on our new Doris the Dragon Facebook page.
It is bad enough as it is with the waste from takeaways, but surely this will get much worse when KFC arrives on our doorstep.

The Aquarium That Sank! an area of over 2 acres and was lit by 1,600 gas jets, inside were various rooms such as as the dining room, reading room, fernery and the concert hall. The decor was based around Hindu temples and had marvellous terracotta work done by James Pullen and son, the floor was tiled with pictures of seaweed, shells, starfish and dolphins while English pastoral scenes in oil were in the concert hall intended to add light. The Aquarium had the largest tank in the world which contained 75,000 gallons of water, was 36ft square and held many a swimming exhibition. By 1886 The Aquarium wasn’t a success, so it was sold for £5,150 to William Morgan, the manager of Blackpool Winter Gardens, who turned it into a successful business venture. Gala Land, originally designed and built in 1877 by Eugenius Birch costing £111,000 opened as The Aquarium, it wasn’t until 1925 it became known as Gala Land. It measured 500 ft x 250 ft and covered
In 1890 extensive alterations and additions had been made which included a monkey house, aviary, seal and alligator ponds. Later additions included a swimming pool in 1893, a theatre in 1907 and a skating rink in 1909. Success was short lived and by 1914 the Aquarium was closed. It was used for
military training during WWI and reopened as Gala Land in 1925. Gala Land has been described by many people on my webpage as a wonderful and magical place they visited often in their childhood days, and whatever the weather there was always something to see and do. There were many acts on stage such Umran The Armless Wonder, Empress Of The Sea, and Zasma The Acrobat. Then there were other performances such as the Spider Lady whose face would be painted like a spiders web and she would appear from behind a dark curtain. Zulu dancers also performed with spears which visitors would pay twopence to watch.
described it as a loud and rickety ride but was also much fun.
Other entertainments included Ivy Bensons all girl band, an organist, a jockey who would guess your weight, slot machines, a maze and a scenic railway which was a mini roller coaster that visitors could ride on around the inside walls. Many people’s memories have
Scarborough Council ran the buildings as Gala Land between 1925 and 1966. Unfortunately in 1968 the buildings were demolished and sadly the site is now used as an underground car park.

A Sailor's Lament I hear the lapping of the waves Flooding the lonely shore Washing over pebbled stones As they sweep home once more.
I hear the seagulls crying, In stretching endless skies Their plumage sheened by silvery moon As now the daylight dies. I hear the wild winds calling, Across deep restless seas They stir the tides inside my heart Still fused in mystery. I hear the sound of anchor chains Echoed from sheltered lee, Sounds that motivate a life That once was part of me. By Malcolm Wilson Bucknall

Scalby & Newby Crafty Articles Group Leader Carol Brett with an example of some of the leg warmers
Knitting group helps support Cystic Fibrosis Charity by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
THE Scalby & Newby Crafty Articles have been doing their bit for the Cystic Fibrosis Charity Group. The members of our group knitted furiously to produce many pairs of leg warmers for the charity. These articles are to be used by both
adults and children suffering from the disease who try to control it by exercise. Crafty Articles Group Leader Carol Brett said: “Apparently, using trampolines is a good way of helping the sufferers, and is also fun, but they do need to keep warm and leg warmers are a good way of doing that.
“The items we are sending will be given to the people who need them most and it is thrilling to know we are helping people in any small way we can. “Please join us and make new friends as well as helping others. We meet on alternate Wednesdays at Scalby and Newby Library between 2.30-4pm.”

Burniston Road car park where the new water park is to be built
Water park plans receive local objection Words & picture by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
OPERATORS of Scarborough's proposed brand new £9million water park on the site of Burniston Barracks and car park have moved to re-assure residents regarding the usage of the new development. Rita Holmes, on behalf of the residents of Burniston Road, said: “Alpamare U.K. Ltd. who will operate the proposed Water Park at the rear of Burniston Road car park next to the barracks development has applied for a premises licence under the Licensing Act 2003 for opening hours of 18 hours per day until 2am. “Live and recorded music, performance of dance, films and the sale by retail of alcohol on and off sales and late night refreshments indoors and outdoors is included in the application. “A total of 314 letters of objection have been made to the Council and the hearing by the Licensing Sub-Committee which will be decided by three Councillors, will be held at 10 am on October 8 2014 in the Council Chamber, Town Hall, Scarborough. “Your support is needed to prevent an expansion of the late night drinking problems in Scarborough, currently the worst place in Yorkshire.” Planning permission was given for a water park with closing hours of 10 pm for which funding of £9m is to be provided by Council taxpayers. However, Roland Duce, Managing Director of Benchmark Leisure released the following statement: “It seems from the number and content of the objections there is some misunderstanding about the proposal and this needs clearing up. “It is very definitely not a night club, as some people are suggesting, rather it is the water park
that Scarborough has been wanting for so many years. “At present the planning permission allows the park to be open from 9am-10pm, with the spa and certain outside areas open from 7.30am-11.30pm every day. “The operator Alpamare, would like to open the park between 10am-10pm every day but with an extension to to 11.30pm Fridays and Saturdays and open until 2am six times a year for special occasions. “When the park is open after 10pm there will be no outside activities, music etc and the slides and rides will not be operating.”
Benchmark Managing Director Roland Duce: “It is very definitely not a night club, as some people are suggesting, rather it is the water park that Scarborough has been wanting for so many years.” Editor's comment: The development of the North side of Scarborough has been under scrutiny for some time and it is good to see things happening. I understand the concerns of the residents and the area certainly needs development and investment. I just hope that the people creating the park get it right and that it is something that can be enjoyed safely and responsibly by residents and visitors alike. n What is your opinion on this subject?

Park in the Dark set to be a spooky experience by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
THE place to be on the spookiest night of the year is the Park in the Dark experience in Falsgrave Park’s Play Area on Friday October 31 from 6.30pm. Organised by the Friends of the Park, the evening starts with pumpkin judging at 6.30, a fancy dress competition at 6.45, and the highly popular haunted walk through the park in the dark led by the Mighty Merlin at 7pm (times may vary). Refreshments including soup, hot dogs and toffee apples will be available plus other attractions.
Chairman of the Friends of Falsgrave Park, Mrs Dorothy Russell, BEM, says: “I am afraid we have no control over what may pop out of the trees and make people jump so we advise people to bring a friendly hand to hang on to and a torch. It will also help to bring something that makes a loud noise such as a whistle or rattle because that‘s the best thing to keep away anything that goes Boo! in the dark.” The Friends are also organising a Pumpkin Carving Workshop at Manor Road Nurseries on Wednesday October 29 between 4.30-6.30pm at the nurseries. Pumpkins and carving materials will be available at the small cost of £2.
Youngsters enjoy the pirate ship at Burniston & Cloughton Playgroup
A little care goes a long way for revamped playgroup area A PLAYGROUP area in Scarborough is now looking ship-shape thanks to the support of local business. Simon Jenkins Heating Engineer and owner of Home Heating Care offered to revamp Burniston and Cloughton Playgroup area, a play group he attended himself some 25 years ago, free of charge. And the company drafted in to revamp the artwork, Rew Nurse Artword's owner Andrew, also went to the same playgroup. Simon said: “The play area was looking very plain and boring, so I decided to get something done about it with the help of Andrew. “I have two children, Thomas and Harriett, who go there now, and my eldest Jack went, so it is kind of a family tradition.” Simon’s company Home Heating Care covered the £150.00 cost of the artwork to be carried out. Simon added: “We have had an amazing response from children and parents, it really is amazing detail and brightens up the whole area. It now allows children to use their imagination and role play skills outdoor and maximise the space available to them.” The playgroup offers places to children aged 2-4 years.

Council in joint bid to run university create a vibrant campus life. The ambition is to develop the campus so that it is sustainable in its own right and as such has realistic opportunities in the medium term to achieve full university status for Scarborough.
SCARBOROUGH Borough Council is delighted to announce that it intends to submit a joint bid with Coventry University College to run the university campus in Scarborough, which is currently operated by the University of Hull. Earlier this year the University of Hull announced its intentions to pull out of the Scarborough campus to focus on its larger educational base in Hull and since that time, the council and local partners have been looking at ways to secure university education in the town for future generations. The proposed collaboration with Coventry University College Ltd (CUC), a wholly owned subsidiary of Coventry University, would create a university campus aimed at providing high quality, industry responsive education at a reasonable price with sustainable student numbers to
The campus would offer a wide range of subject areas at Foundation, HNC and honours degree level: law, marketing and sales, health and social care, science and engineering, tourism and hospitality, policing, accounting, management and leadership, business and information technology and business and law. However, the aim is to develop the courses on offer in response to the needs of local students and employers. Cllr Tom Fox, Scarborough Borough Council Leader said: “I am delighted that we are now able to go public with these exciting plans for securing university education in Scarborough. Coventry University College has a reputation for offering excellent higher education and a rewarding student experience. We feel it is the right partner to help us deliver a truly first class higher education institution to match our ambitions for the continuing economic development of our borough.”

Tales from the cooler water 14 Scarborough Review, Issue 14 - 19
The next event is the Surfers Against Sewage autumn beach clean, which will take place on Saturday 18th October on South Bay, starting at 3 pm (meet up a little earlier to collect your equipment and have a chat). I'll have the SAS gazebo set up on the beach as a meeting point. I know I harp on about marine litter in pretty much every article I write, so you must be expecting it by now! This year, SAS are pushing the government to commit to really reducing the amount of litter that ends up bobbing around in the waves. Through legislation, petitions and education we have a great chance to make a positive change over the next few years.
There is a lot going on in the world of surfing this month. The highlights are the British pro tour surfing event on Scarborough's North Bay on the 4th and 5th of October and the Surfers Against Sewage autumn beach clean on Saturday 18th October at 3pm. The British pro surf tour has been coming to North Bay for a few years now and it is a fantastic event. Aside from the surfing there will be stalls ranging from surf shops to food sellers and loads of other cool folks. I'll be running an SAS stall on both days, highlighting the work we do locally to improve our environment. There will also be music, skateboarding and more music. In addition, there are free beginners and advanced surf lessons - but spaces are very limited. Anyone wanting an intermediate lesson can call me on 07891094976. You will need to provide all your own equipment and be able to surf unbroken waves. There will be sessions running each morning and must be pre-booked. The event is on both Saturday 4th and Sunday & 5th October, so come down and enjoy the surfing vibe for a couple of days. Fingers crossed that we will have some good waves this year.
So that's all the current news. I've decided it's time to delve into Scarborough's rich surfing history and start telling tales of Scarborough's surfing pioneers. Not many folk realise that there have been people surfing our coast line for many decades. There has been a crew of dedicated people (lunatics ;)) surfing here since the '60s. Next month I'll tell you more. In the meantime, if you have any old surfing stories yourself and would like them to be included, drop me a line and I'll add them to the mix. n For more information on SAS visit www.sas.org.uk

Livvy gives Jacqui a new lease of life
area in Cayton, and Robert’s death left Jacqui distraught and completely alone. Struggling to cope with her deafness, Jacqui sought help. She had hearing aids fitted, and was advised by hearing specialists to apply for a hearing dog from Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. A year after Robert’s death and on the date of their Golden Wedding Anniversary, Jacqui received her life-changing hearing dog – Livvy.
Jacqueline Knight and her her dog Livvy JACQUELINE Knight, 78-years-old from Scarborough, and her hearing dog Livvy have been nominated for the Life-Changing Partnership of the Year Award at this year’s annual Hearing Dogs Awards. National charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is hosting the glittering awards ceremony which will be attended by the charity’s patron, Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal, on Wednesday October 8 at the 8 Northumberland Avenue in Central London. Jacqui did not realise that she had such a severe hearing loss until her husband, Robert, died suddenly. Eight years ago the couple had just moved to a brand new
It was love at first sight when Jacqui met her adorable Yorkshire Terrier cross Poodle, and now she cannot imagine life without her clever companion. Livvy alerts her to the sounds she cannot hear such as the alarm clock, cooker timer and the fire alarm. Jacqui said:“Livvy is irreplaceable; she’s changed my life by giving me something to focus on after my husband’s death and has given me a new lease of life.” Livvy has even given Jacqui the confidence to get back into her favourite pastime – gardening. Jacqui has won awards for her amazing garden, and has her faithful hearing dog to thank for that. Jacqui added:”She helps me with everything. Livvy is the be all and end all – she has completely changed my life.” n For more information visit www.hearingdogs.org.uk
The Friends celebrate finishing painting Manor Road Nurseries
Manor Road Nurseries all set to open up by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
ALL gardeners in the Scarborough area are invited to the official re-opening of the Manor Road Nurseries shop on Tuesday October 14 at 11.30am. This marks the end of several weeks of hard work by staff of the nurseries and the Friends who have repainted the staging, completely replaced the polythene covering, and renewed much of the woodwork. The project was prompted by the Friends who raised £500 to refurbish the 15 year-old- shop. Chair of the Friends group, Mrs Dorothy Russell, BEM, says: “This is just the sort of project that Friends groups
are for. It is not reasonable to expect Scarborough Borough Council to fork out money for every idea that it is presented with and this has given a chance for people who love the borough to do their bit and make a practical improvement.” The Nurseries shop provides an outlet for the surplus plants that are left over after flower beds and other arrangements have been planted. This means that buyers can access the extremely high quality plants that have helped the council win its environmental awards but at very affordable prices. n For further information please contact Mrs Russell on 01723 373292.

Muck & Magic team set challenge for green-fingered Scarborough Fact sheets on growing monster pumpkins and giant sunflowers will shortly be available from the all muck and magic email address including cultural information, pests and diseases to avoid, and top tips on feeding and watering.
GARDENING is a wonderful pastime. If you are looking for a bit of peace and quiet there is nothing better than wandering around the garden, or working on the veg plot enjoying listening to the birds and recharging the batteries away from other human company. On the other hand gardening can be a very sociable pastime, if you want it to be.
If you have a gardening question you would like answering please email the muck and magic gardening team at: allmuckandmagic@hotmail.co.uk and remember the experts are already plotting their campaign so get busy and show those experts what you can do. Happy growing.
There's many an allotment site where you can share a cuppa with your fellow plot holders and put the world to rights before getting back to the solitary business of digging and planting. Three hundred gardeners of all ages packed into the Scarborough Spa recently to have a natter, a cuppa and to celebrate the All Muck and Magic Garden awards . It was great to see so much enthusiasm and passion for gardening from youngsters at school to the young at heart and it's clear that across this part of Yorkshire we have some very talented people with very green fingers. The All Muck and Magic gardening team have thrown down the gauntlet, or in this case maybe the gardening glove,
and have challenged the gardening public to beat them next summer and grow the largest pumpkin or the tallest sunflower. Can you beat the experts? The
competition is open to anyone and weighing/measuring will take place at the end of next summer with results being announced at the 2015 Muck and Magic awards.

Starsign of the month...
Libra (23rd September - 22nd October )
Here are a few famous faces you share your sign with
This is a month wherein trust and judgement are put to the test, and therefore it’s an important time for finding out (a) just how strong an emotional relationship is, and (b) who your real friends are. For example, sometime between the 10th and the 15th someone will make you an offer you can’t refuse. Unfortunately, the chances are that you will refuse, (probably for all the wrong reasons), and in so doing, will close the door on some lovely opportunities, both in the boardroom and in the bedroom! You’ll be on the receiving end of some good news on the 17th, probably in connection with jobs and careers, because in connection with this, there is a boost to all levels of financial confidence during the last week of the month.
Visit our website for extended readings... www.yourlocallink.co.uk scorpio (23rd October - 21st November) Lady Scorpions get most of their own way during October, and as they’re going to be in a happy mood, hopefully this happiness can spread a little bit, and make other people a wee bit happier too. Gentlemen may have to swallow some professional disappointment between the 15th and the 22nd, but as they move into the last week, as one door closes another opens.
Clockwise from left: Kate Winslet, Hugh Jackman, Margaret Thatcher, Guillermo del Toro.
sagittarius (22nd November - 21st December) A healing mood moves through October, bringing resolutions to long standing arguments. On the strength of this, relationships which have faltered should now find stronger foundations and there will be a welcome boost to all romantic and sexual aspects.
Capricorn (22nd December - 19th January) Not exactly a month for sitting on your laurels, but if you look back at what has been achieved over the last six months, you should have good cause to feel well satisfied. Against that, there are concerns regarding other peoples’ ill health, and you can’t escape some entanglement with beaurocracy and red tape – which is a nuisance but not a threat! aquarius (20th January - 18th February) The acquisition of new skills and techniques will help you professionally, both in the short term as well as the long. Therefore do not be averse to new ideas, new ways of thinking, and new ways of doing things. PIscES (19th Feb - 20th March) A much easier, much faster month than some you have known this year, in which things fall rapidly into place, helping you to (a) resolve a few long standing problems, and (b) form a clearer view of your own future, both the long term as well as the short. A new mood of self determination manifests itself that serves you well throughout the month and beyond. aries (21st March-19th April) Quite an intense month on the home front, possibly with some disruption to domestic routines caused by DIY schemes or unexpected guests. It could even be both! Nice money vibes between the 8th and the14th, with overseas connections coming into focus around the 21st. taurus (20th April - 20th May) Rather a dull and uneventful start to the month and not much change until the 10th, when the pace and tempo pick up a beat. An older person’s ill health may
cause concern and there’ll be a couple of awkward professional decisions to make between the 4th and the 10th. GEMINI (21st May - 20th June) Some clashes of will between parents and their children, and parents may be well advised to curb any criticism of their offspring’s choice of partner. There is a “new face” coming into the family, and you’d better get used to it, because it’s here to stay! CANCER (21 June - 22nd July) Before there can be new beginnings, there have to be a few endings – and this is a month of endings! It’s important that you don’t lose sight of the big picture, and recognise that all that happens, happens for a reason, even if you can’t see what it is. There are challenges and tests, but these are tests that you will pass, becoming a lot stronger is the process. LEO (23th July - 23rd August) A reunion or a chance meeting with an old friend will put a smile on your face, but be warned, it may create some suspicion and jealousy from a third party. Handle this situation with care and compassion, because someone may see this as the straw that breaks the camel’s back and use it as an excuse for unnecessary and unjustifiable behaviour. virgo (23rd August - 22nd September) A month of mixed blessings. Lots of hard work on the job scene, but with a tendency to become tired and over extended. Good money prospects, especially around the 12th, but not quite enough to do what you want to do.

THRUMBLES Cafe-bar has just celebrated its first birthday by becoming a licensed establishment.
BUSINESS for Breakfast in Scarborough was successfully launched at Scarborough Rugby Club. A number of local businesses came together for the inaugural launch to understand what Business for Breakfast can do for them, what the forum can achieve and to understand how relationship marketing and quality referrals can significantly grow their business.
And owner Aaron Ward hopes this added extra to his businesses will keep customers coming back for many more years to come. Aaron, 23, said: “It is unbelievable how quickly the last year has gone, but it has been extremely enjoyable and I am delighted with how the business has developed.
The meetings will eventually only allow one person per business sector or profession to join each forum. Go along and see for yourself and learn more about Business for Breakfast. Your only investment is £10 to cover the cost of breakfast and the meeting room.
“The cafe side of things has been great but we wanted to also offer people the opportunity to enjoy a beer or glass of wine, and to also be able to open later on an evening.
n To reserve your place at the next exciting meeting, please contact Julie Stewart on 07832351740 or email: julie@scarboroughpages.co.uk

and when we shut for a refurbishment, people kept knocking on the door and ringing to see when we would be open again, which is really nice.” Thrumbles, based at 130 Victoria Road, are also serving draft beers which are supplied by Brass Castle Brewery of Malton. Aaron added: “We get as much locally as we can. We still use Hardies for our bread and Horsleys for our meat, and that is important. “From mid-October we will be opening later on Thursdays as well as Fridays and Saturdays to fit in with the run up to Christmas. We will still be running our usual food and beverages through the day but now have the option to offer customers an alcoholic drink in a relaxed environment.” n For further details see page 29

Members of Newby & Scalby in Bloom get ready for their Best Kept Gardens Presentation evening at Wreyfield Drive Church
The family breakfast ride proves popular
Festival of cycling provides plenty of pedal power SCARBOROUGH’S Festival of Cycling proved to be a resounding success, blessed with fine weather. The addition of an early family breakfast ride of 5 miles from Weaponness coach park along Foreshore Road and back attracted 40 people. From Oliver’s Mount as a base, the sportive rides over 2 distances, taking in Bridlington and Sledmere areas had 80 entrants and the grass track events by the West Riding Track League had 45 riders. The road race programme delivered by British Cycling had a huge number of 412 entrants across all the categories. There was also Go Ride for beginners, organised by Richardsons, using a twisty track on dewy grass which proved an interesting challenge for the 40 riders that had come both locally from Scarborough, Filey, Hunmanby and as far as Manchester. With age ranges from 4 to 16 the riders got stuck in for three races per age group and as the track was drying out and the sun shone the racing got faster. The aim of these races is to prepare riders for the next level of competition but also to have loads of fun on their bike in a safe environment. Winners of the King & Queen of the Mountain Tops were: Under 6 - Madalane Hirzel, Under 8 - Fraser Taylor, Under 10 - Francis Hirzel, Under 12 wins for Amber Hull, Harry Butterworth and Bryn Richards and Under 14 - Guy Drabble. The next round is at Dalby Forest on 21st September. Paragon’s 10 miles time trial at Burton Fleming had 53 riders on Saturday afternoon and their Come and Try It hill climb was held at Oliver’s Mount, as a belated lunch break for the road race organisers on Sunday. Twenty-
six riders signed up for the half-mile route up Weaponness Lane, which comprised two females, and an age range of 7 to 73. Paragon’s Louise Scupham was thrown in at the deep end in the women’s road race, coming 7th out of 10 women starters, claiming 4 national BC points. The women were set off 1 minute after the 2/3/4 category men, who soon lapped them on the 1.3m top circuit, so they were soon engulfed and couldn’t race effectively amongst themselves. The more experienced tucked in with the men and got an easier ride. A bottleneck section on the circuit caused a bit of trouble for the bunch but she soon regained composure to valiantly continue with another girl and on the final full circuit with the steepest hill, Louise was pleased to charge up the climb and overtake 3 riders. Paragon’s Daryl Maffey also took part and finished in a group.

BILLY Pearce says he is devastated that Scarborough’s Futurist Theatre is no more. He performed at the Futurist in the mid-nineties and believes that lack of investment in theatres and clubs up and down the country is worrying. He said: “The Futurist was a brilliant venue but when things are left to go stale with no investment, then that’s when they end up going to the wall.

IT was celebration time at the Newby & Scalby in Bloom Best Kept Gardens Presentation evening. The event took place at Wreyfield Drive Church where all winners received a £50 cheque thanks to Newby & Scalby Parish Council, along with a shield of recognition. A raffle also took place which raised a total of £92. Newby & Scalby in Bloom’s Sue Groom said: “Congratulations to all the winners and everyone who took part in the competition. “We had a lovely evening and I am sure there will be more competition in future years.” Results: Small Garden: Val Humphreys, Medium Garden: David Grace, Large Garden: Maggie Bridge, Hanging Baskets, Containers & Planters: June Goodridge, Business: Nags Head.
AFTER the fantastic success of the inaugural Sci-Fi Scarborough last April, the March 14 and 15 2015 sees the town’s very own Science Fiction, Fantasy and Comic Book convention return to the Spa Complex in the South Bay of Scarborough.

Virginia will be available to sign autographs, pose for photographs & will take part in special panels onstage in The Grand Hall where they will discuss projects past and present & share a few stories.

“I was devastated to hear that it was shutting down and I have some very fond memories of the place. “I would say there were a lot of people passionate about the theatre, but if those same people don’t go and support it, then it’s a waste of time. “It is also key to promote shows and you just have to see what smaller venues are doing now to get people in. I am enjoying going round the country performing at clubs and smaller places but you could never beat entertaining in a grand theatre like the Futurist was.”
Pearce proves he is still a comedy king Words & picture by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
COMEDY king Billy Pearce had the audience in stitches when he performed at The Mayfield in Seamer. The 63-year-old from Leeds certainly did not mind shocking some of those present with his adult comedy routine and performing a set straight through for over an hour and a half, with no interval, is testament to him and his craft. Throwing in a story about his experience on the National Lottery at Scarborough Spa alongside Mystic Meg and Anthea Turner added that personal touch with the local audience.
And I, for one, did not expect him to have such a brilliant vocal talent as he belted out several tunes, often stopping at regular intervals to throw in more edgy gags. It was high-energy stuff from start to finish in a great and relaxed atmosphere in the Mayfield’s beautiful function room. It would be great to see even more comedy kings on the local scene and next up at The Mayfield is Bobby Davro on October 17, which is sure to be another cracking night. n To book tickets call The Mayfield on Scarborough 863160.

Book does for parsons what James Herriot did for vets Report and photo by Dave Barry
Many are being shown in the town for the first time.
Modest and self-deprecating, Barrie deploys an understated sense of humour to describe the eccentricities of his congregations, to mixed reactions.
Tickets cost £4 for one, £25 for eight and £40 for 16 (seniors’ concession £35). n For details, ring Guy Smith on 07748 280871 or email him at guysmith@tiscali.co.uk.
Described as “spiritually offensive”and “a lot of rubbish” by two readers, his satirical reflections were far from universally popular. However, most readers lapped up the mildly subversive journal, which steered clear of being disrespectful.
A friend of Barrie’s reckons the book does for parsons what James Herriot did for vets and Gervase Phinn for school inspectors. “I would not make such a flattering comparison”, Barrie asserts. The weekly column had a tentative start in the Baptist Times, a small weekly denominational newspaper.
12 Years a Slave, the harrowing but true tale of slavery in the USA, kickstarts a new season of big-screen films from around the world next week.
The films are: 12 Years a Slave (10 Oct), Le Weekend (24 Oct), Sunshine on Leith (7 Nov), Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom (21 Nov), Philomena (5 Dec), Saving Mr Banks (19 Dec), The Railway Man (9 Jan), Leave to Remain (23 Jan), The Past (6 Feb), Inside Llewyn Davis (20 Feb), Calvary (6 Mar), All is Lost (20 Mar), We Are the Best (3 Apr), The Square (10 Apr), Short Term 12 (1 May) and The Lunchbox (15 May).
It was a form of therapy, designed to “stave off madness”, as Barrie Petterson puts it.
F. and R.B. added: “A sense of humour is so necessary in so many instances, otherwise one might despair at times”.
Words by Dave Barry
The movies, to be shown at the library on alternate Fridays, are mostly in English; the others are subtitled.
Parsonal Diary was conceived during an eight–year spell as a Baptist parson at Albemarle Baptist Church.
Miss J.R. from Bradford said: “Sadly, as Christians we have become so serious that we often lack the ability to laugh at ourselves or see the comical. A good laugh can release many tensions and prove to be a healing factor, helping to bring wholeness in the midst of stress, and enabling us to cope in demanding circumstances.”
New season for film society The season is being organised by Scarborough Film Society in tribute to founder Tony Davison, who died earlier this year.
Amusing recollections from the life of a Scarborough parson have been published.
“How refreshing to have the traditions and unwritten assumptions of church life exposed in such a gentle and humorous way,” commented Rev A.B. from Birmingham. “I doubt whether any Baptist institution would not benefit from the sharp-witted observations of our anonymous correspondent [Barrie used a pen name]. For me, this column is the highlight of every issue of the Baptist Times”.
Solomon Northup plays a free black man from upstate New York who is abducted and sold into slavery, in 12 Years a Slave.
“Just when I thought I’d done enough and brought the series to an end, the editor asked me to continue,” Barrie recalls. “Perhaps it was because he needed extended therapy as much as I did – or perhaps a wider readership was hungry for this new approach to religious journalism?”
Musicport festival boasts 60+ acts
Scots indie rockers Idlewild make a much heralded return to live performance in a stripped-back acoustic show. Musicport takes audiences on a journey through a world of musical experience, from the opening event (Edinburgh’s remarkable and noisy Beastie Drummers) through to the closing act (the chart-busting Banco de Gaia).
The subsequent series ran for a further seven years and clocked up 312,000 words, accompanied by 416 cartoons, versions of which appear in the book. Barrie says: “I wrote the diary for my own benefit, as a kind of therapy, after pastoral days slaving over a hot flock. “I observed the funny side of things – as soon as we believers begin to get overly serious, then-as-now, we become prone to spiritual prat-falls. As an assurance to other Christian denominations, let it be plainly stated that these ruminations of mine come from 36 years of pastoral experience in the Baptist church. I expose my own eccentricities as well as those of others. These are novelties which I hope will cause amusement and laughter to those of other denominations – as well as those who belong to none.” n Parsonal Diary, published by Farthings of Scarborough, costs £9.99 and can be ordered by ringing 863125.
Others highlights will include: * Original Bhundu Boy Rise Kagona, from Zimbabwe,
Words and photo by Dave Barry With two weeks to go, the final preparations are under way for Musicport 2014 - the indoor festival that brings an eclectic mix of international, regional and local acts to the Yorkshire coast. On six stages under one roof, the 60-plus acts on offer range from the legendary Arthur Brown (returning to the town of his birth) and veteran DJ Andy Kershaw through to exclusive UK appearances by brilliant French band Lo’Jo and Tunisian brothers Amine & Hamza.
* Peter Gabriel’s Chinese flute player Guo Yue, * Turkish singer Olcay Bayir, * The upbeat Tantz klezmer band from Leeds, * Award-winning Welsh / Senegalese duo Catrin Finch & Seckou Keita, * The exciting young 16-piece Varldens Band from Sweden, who prove that musicians from different cultural backgrounds can create music that crosses musical and ethnic divides. Musicport takes place at Whitby Pavilion from 17-19 October. n To book, ring 01947 603475.

A must-see show for all Football Manager fans heads to Scarborough Spa by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
FOOTBALL Manager addict and the north east’s newest rising star, Tony Jameson, will bring his hilarious sell-out debut Edinburgh Festival show Football Manager Ruined My Life to Scarborough Spa on Sunday November 23. Football Manager Ruined My Life focuses on Tony’s apparent mid-life crisis (he’s only 33,though) and a realisation that he has spent 20 years playing the same video game. He thinks he’s achieved some good things in his life, but could his life have been any better if he had applied his energies elsewhere? With a warm, amiable and conversational style,
Tony brings a mixture of silly stories and references to footballers you may/may not have heard of. But it’s more than just a riff on football. Tony looks into whether he’s an addict, is it escapism, or is he just somebody who should know better? Every performance of the show at last year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival was sold out which led to Tony performing the show to sell out audiences at this year’s Leicester Comedy Festival and Glasgow International Comedy Festival. Tickets for ‘Football Manager Ruined My Life’ go on sale on Friday 1st August priced at £10 (£8 Concessions/U16s) via The Spa Box Office (01723) 821888 and via www.scarboroughspa.co.uk
Scarborough musician set for big debut track He performed twice that summer in front of crowds reaching 6,000, supporting both Olly Murs and Mcfly. This year Connor was asked back specifically by Mcfly’s management team to come and support McBusted at the Scarborough segment of what could be their only tour. The 19 year old singer/songwriter is currently working on his first EP of original music and it is set for release worldwide in October. Connor had this to say about the EP.

Raven fly into hotel for lifeboat benefit Words and photo by Dave Barry Raven are to play a benefit concert for Scarborough lifeboat on Saturday 18 October. The popular band will perform songs from their six albums, including the latest, Near to Me, at the Regency Central Hotel (formerly Beiderbecke’s). They will be supported by the SJT Outreach choir, Global Voices. Raven and Global Voices are teaming up in aid of the RNLI campaign to raise £200,000 for a launch-and-recovery vehicle for a new lifeboat, coming in 2016. The women went down a storm at Seafest in July, captivating a full marquee with enchanting harmonies and infectious melodies, which tumbled forth
in an exquisite stream of exuberant, optimistic and spirited songs. At turns jaunty and ethereal, the Raven tunes carry lyrics about love, friendship, nature, the moon and the supernatural. The band are Sarah Dew, Nia Davidson, Sally Lidgley, Pat Edmond, Karen Chalmers and Jaye Lewis. Between them they play keyboards, penny whistle, recorders, flute, acoustic guitar, electric bass guitar, ukulele, and a variety of percussion. n Tickets for the RNLI fundraiser, which will start at 7.30pm, cost £7.50 and are on sale at the lifeboathouse shop and the Regency Central Hotel.

SCARBOROUGH musician, Connor Lawlor, is set to make a huge impact with his debut EP entitled Back To You, due for release on October 26. Connor’s music career has gone from strength to strength since really pushing it forward and joining Westwood Performing Arts College in 2011. He has made a huge name for himself around his hometown of Scarborough performing regularly whenever he gets the chance and is now booked up for gigs - both as a solo artist and in his extremely popular duo Connor and Nathen - until next year. His career really began to take off when he managed to secure support slots for two big names back in 2013 at Scarborough's Open Air Theatre.
“I am super excited about the release of this EP. It’s going to be my first real release and I’m hoping it will be a huge success in terms of how my audience receive it. “Releasing original music is such an amazing way of showing everyone who you are as a musician. For me, every song that I write is almost like a part of me and so, whilst it’s amazing to be showing it to the world, it’s also kind of scary. To celebrate the release of his first EP Connor is having an EP Launch Party at Beiderbecke’s Hotel on October 25. It will be a whole night of live entertainment starting at 7.30pm. Other local acts and friends will be playing throughout the night leading up to Connor playing a big set of his original EP work and then going on to play a more energetic set with his duo partner Nathen. n Visit: www.connorlawlor.com

Record breaking effort from fundraising darts competition evened it up by winning the 2nd leg. The 3rd and 4th legs both went to Jackie and Julie giving a final result of a 3-1 win to them.

Words & photo by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
JACKIE Burrows and Julie Wrightson clinched the 2014 Eileen Elliott 19x Memorial Trophy in what was a recordbreaking competition. On the finals night at Wilsons pub, West Sandgate, the semi-finals saw Tracey Moon and Mandy Wood through to the final beating Shellie Hirst and Claire Dobson 3-0, followed by Jackie and Julie defeating Andrea and Dusian Whitehouse by the same result 3-0. The first leg of the final was taken by Jackie and Julie, then Tracey and Mandy
The fundraising also ended on a fantastic high with the finals night raffle raising a superb £465 on the night, giving a total of £1,710 raised during the 2014 competition. This was the highest amount ever raised in one season taking over from the £1,591 raised back in 2005. The total figure raised now since the competition began in 1990 is £29,850. All of the money raised throughout the competition is given to the Macmillan Nurses at Scarborough Hospital. Competition organiser Maggie Worrall said: “This is a ladies dart pairs knockout competition which carries a first prize of £150. We had great support this year and would like to thank not only the ladies who entered the competition but also the local businesses and individuals who were so generous in donating prizes for the finals night raffle. A final thank you goes to John and Tracie at Wilsons for their generous support throughout.”
Jack Money, 8, is happy with his catch at the Scarborough UK Kayak Fishing Competition Kayakers gather on Scarborough's South Bay beach ahead of the competition
Kayak fishing competition reels in some top catches
THE start of the 7th Scarborough UK Kayak Fishing Competition saw 58 optimistic kayakers launch from South Bay, Scarborough. The event was sponsored by 1st Wet & Wild and Nordic Sport Fishing, and with a first prize of a fishing holiday in Norway and a cash prize of £250 for second place this was a match worth winning. Although the bay holds a wide variety of fish, the winner would be decided by the largest single fish, and this was likely to be either cod or pollack. So the majority of anglers headed south towards Cornelian Bay to anchor up at their favourite mark and fish for cod with baits that ranged from the traditional peeler crab, squid and worm through to the strange east coast specialty known as cart. But the more intrepid minority headed north around Marine Drive, which is known to hold some big pollack. And that proved to be a wise decision as it provided the eventual winner, Martin Collinson from Colchester, with a pollack of 6 lb 12 oz.

Young martial arts aces make the grade by Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
YOUNGSTERS from Five Elements Jujitsu showed their skills as they past their first grading.
Jack Money just 8-years-old, managed a small coalie; too small to weigh in but a great way to start the match. This approach also produced a number of bass and put Mark Dowse amongst the winner with a nice fish of 2lb 12 oz and the largest bass of the day.
Owen Riley, Finn McGuinness and Joshua Parkin all achieved their white belt status at the Gallows Close Centre based martial arts club.
The forecast was for the swell to increase as the day wore on, but in the event it happened sooner and more severe with waves of 3’ breaking over the anchored kayakers. Although the safety boat provided and crewed by Scarborough Sub-Aqua Club, was providing excellent support, the organizer Dave Adamson took the brave but sensible decision to end the match early.
Instructor Anthony Prior said: “I would like to congratulate all three of them on their achievement because they worked very hard in demonstrating their knowledge of the syllabus.
Twenty seven people weighed in at the Scarborough Clubhouse and the results were tight with just 10 oz separating Martin’s winning pollack from a 6lb 2 oz cod in second place caught by the winner of the 2012 match, Ian Pickering.
“I presented each of them with a suit as a reward for passing and they were
Youngsters from left, Owen Riley, Finn McGuinness and Joshua Parkin with instructors Steven Moore and Anthony Prior all very pleased with what they had done.”

West Riding set their sights on promotion push
By Pete Spence pete@thescarboroughreview.co.uk
WEST Riding FC are hoping to go all the way to the top in the Scarborough & District Scarborough News Sunday League. Manager James Prethero has assembled an impressive line up for the newly formed side and they have made a good start to the league campaign. Prethero said: “We formed West Riding from what was Castle FC and I have been very fortunate to inherit some very good players and bring in plenty of new blood too, and things are looking very positive. “We have quite a young squad and all the players are very hungry to succeed. Every time they step onto the pitch they want to play attacking football and score goals, which is great to see.” Prethero has plenty of experience in the Sunday League having had spells with Spa, Tonics and Seamer, and he is excited about his current club’s prospects. He added: “I have come in to this refreshed and I can see from the players that they want to do well and there is competition for places. “We need to be challenging for the first division and we have also entered the North Riding Challenge Cup which should be interesting.
Player profiles: Nathan Palmer (Goalkeeper) Ex Angel Goalkeeper who is a good shot stopper and good with his feet. Matty Turner (Goalkeeper) Matty has come up from the Minor League from Pheonix under-16s Growing in confidence and controls his box well. James Seymour (Defender / Vice Captain) Ex Angel, Tonics and Seamer. Nicknamed Nessi, he is a very realiable player that loves a tackle and getting up and down the touchline. Also has a load of goals in him.

Aiden McCallion (Defender/Midfielder) Ex Angel and Seamer. Aiden is a hard hitting defensive middfielder who takes no prisoners. Sits in front of the defence and cleans everything up with ease. Liam Buglass (Midfielder) Ex Angel and Seamer. Holding midfielder who doesn’t get much credit because he gets on with his job without any fuss and is always reliable. Luke Jones (Middfielder/Attacker) Ex Angel, Tonics and Seamer. Luke is a very versatile player who can play either up top or anywhere in midfield. Very creative and knows where the back of the net is.
Amanda Underwood, manager of Hickory’s said: “As a small Scarborough business it is great to get involved with something local, so sponsoring the football lads is a pleasure.
“We wish them all the best for the season and are proud to be associated with them.”
Left: Matty Farline is in control as he brings the ball forward
Max Beecroft (Midfielder) Ex Angel Max is a strong central midfielder who is confident on the ball and likes to slow the game down when needed. Curtis Rose (Midfielder/ Attacker) Ex Angel Curt can play either up front or in midfield. Another player that gets on with his game with no fuss. Very creative. Alistair Jennings (Midfielder) Ex Newlands Reserves Aj is still finding his feet at West Riding but with hard work and the right attitude he is more than capable of cementing a start in the centre of the park. AJ is West Riding’s club clown. Harrison Pollard (Midfield/Attacker) Harry has recently joined our very impressive squad and is a very good addition. A creative player that will fit in, scored on his debut after coming off the bench against Roscoes.
West Riding’s Curtis Rose (right) gets ready to receive the ball in the match against Scarborough Spa which West won 10-0
is getting more and more confident each game and helps with the players he has around him Josh Foley (Striker) Ex Angel Josh started pre season really well getting on the score sheet in his first few games. Unfortunatly Josh has suffered with a knee ligament injury keeping him out for a few weeks.
Josh Young (Midfielder/Attacker) Another player that has come through the Minor League, joining us from Pheonix under-16s. Josh has got off to a flying start at West Riding. Scored a hat trick against Roscoes FC in our 12-1 win. Jack South (Striker) Jack joined us from Pheonix under-16s and has scored a lot of goals already. In pre-season he netted 13 in 6. Jack still has a lot of work to do but

Scarborough Review, Issue 14 - 43
Busy league and cup month for Boro by Will Baines IT has been a hectic September for Scarborough Athletic, but Rudy Funk’s side have managed to maintain their solid start to the new Evo-Stik First Division North season as well as making progress in the FA Cup. The month began with a 1-1 draw against North Shields in the FA Cup Preliminary Round at Queensgate, Ben Middleton on target for Boro to see them scrape through to a replay. The return fixture was a pulsating cup tie. After the game finished 4-4 following extra time, the game headed to a nerve-wracking penalty shoot-out. The penalty takers for Athletic all converted, whilst Jason White made two key saves to seal a dramatic victory. Harry Domett fends off a Wath Challenge
Domett shines despite Silver Royd men's dip in form Words & photo by Andy Standing SCARBOROUGH'S flying start to the season has ground to a halt recently. After starting their campaign with an away victory against Barnsley in the Yorkshire Shield, a lightweight looking side surprised everyone with another away victory at Selby. Harry Domett was in scintillating form giving the Selby defence a torrid time. They followed this up with an impressive home win against Wath upon Dearne with Domett again in fine form. Expectations were high when the Silver Royd outfit visited newly promoted Yarnbury. However it was the West Yorkshire side that showed more desire to win and took a deserved victory with the last kick of the game. Scarborough looked to get back on track with a home game against local rivals York but after an awful first half the home side found themselves 17-0 behind. They rallied strongly in the second half and deservedly levelled the game in the final minute, but York were not to be denied and snatched victory after an error in the Scarborough defence. Coach Lee Douglas will be delighted with the emergence of youngsters Joe Marshall, Jordan Wakeham and Hayden Ogilvie, who have all made the step up to first team rugby. Over the next month Scarborough face tough visits to Bridlington and newly promoted Hullensians as well as home games against big spending Doncaster Phoenix and neighbours Malton & Norton.
The Seadogs were back in league action just a few days later against Prescot Cables, picking all three points with a 2-1 win. After falling behind in the first half, Boro left it late to respond, as Gary Bradshaw started the comeback with an 82nd minute equaliser. A last-minute penalty was awarded to Athletic when Bradshaw was fouled in the area, with substitute Jordan Thewlis narrowly firing it home. An away trip to Ossett Town followed, but Boro started slowly and found themselves trailing 2-0 at half-time. Nathan Curtis added a third for the home side midway through the second half, and despite a late consolation for Athletic through Jordan Thewlis, the damage was done by a poor first-half display.
Boro keeper Jason White has been showing good form between the sticks September ended with Athletic exiting the FA Cup at the Second Round Qualifying stage to Curzon Ashton 1-0, but Boro went out with their heads held high as they produced a superb performance against a team from the division above. Updates from every Boro game can be heard online from Radio Scarborough, at www. radioscarborough.co.uk

Rudy Funk’s side were quickly into FA Cup action in the Second Round Qualifying round away at Ashington.

Scarborough & District Scarborough News Sunday League second division side Scarborough Spa FC have found it tough early in the season
Edgehill are early leaders DESPITE an astonishing 9-1 defeat by league champions Newlands Park in the pre-season Kitty Cook Trophy (Adam Stride top scoring with a hat trick), believed to be Edgehill's heaviest ever defeat, Steve Clegg's side have made a storming start to the Scarborough News District League first division, winning their opening five matches to go top of the table. They beat Seamer Sports 4-2, United Sports 6-2, Ayton 6-0 and Westover 3-1, before coming from behind to beat Filey Town 2-1 with goals from Ricky Greening and Carl Hepples. West Pier have won their first four league matches and reigning champions Newlands Park have begun with three straight wins. Westover Wasps are mid table, with two early season wins, 6-1 against Sleights and 4-1 v Hunmanby United, with goals shared by Ryan Matson, Chris Cass, Chris Hannam and James Seymour. At the foot of the table, both Seamer and Ryedale Sports are pointless after losing their opening four league games. In the second division Scalby are the early pacesetters with four wins and a draw from their first five games, including a 6-1 win against Snainton with strikes from Will Bray 2, George Wilson 2, Darren Arnott and Jake Scutt. Filey Town began the campaign with four straight wins with both Tom Haxby and Tom Scales scoring twice in an 8-1 defeat of struggling FC Rosette. Both Snainton (4 defeats) and FC Rosette (5 defeats) are still looking for their first points. The third division was hit by the eve of season resignation of Rillington Athletic, long standing members of the League since way back in 1958, who folded due to a lack of players. Seamer Sports Reserves won their first five games to go top of the table, with Kris Tate scoring twice in a 5-1 defeat of Cayton Reserves. Newcomers Falsgrave Athletic won four of their first six games
to go 2nd in the table, with Mikey Anderson hitting a hat trick in a 6-1 win over Scalby Reserves. In League Cup first round matches there were comfortable wins for some of the big guns, as West Pier beat Seamer Sports 5-1, Newlands crushed Ayton Reserves 7-0 and Ryedale Sports were 7-2 winners against United Sports.
The Scarborough FA Harbour Cup first round saw holders Filey Town beat Newlands Park 4-2, with goals from James Pinder, Liam Barnes, Phil Dickens and Ben Briggs. In another clash of the top sides, Neil Thomas scored twice to earn West Pier a 2-0 home win against Edgehill, whilst other first round winners included Ayton who beat Tennyson 4-0, with two goals apiece from Dan Peel and Paul Oldroyd, Ryedale Sports who won 4-1 at Hunmanby thanks to a Martin Foxton hat trick, and Paddy Parkes' Seamer Sports who won 6-2 at Scalby. The Scartborough FA District Cup first round takes place on Saturday, 25 October and the draw is as follows- Edgehill v Brooklyn, Tennyson v Ryedale Sports, Whitby Fishermen v Ayton Res, Seamer Sports v Ayton, Newlands Park v Sinnington, West Pier v Scalby, Filey Town v Hunmanby Utd and Kirkbymoorside v United Sports. In the Evening News Sunday League, last season's runners-up Newlands went top of the first division after winning their first three games without conceding a goal, beating Fylingdales 2-0 and 11-0 (joint player-manager Ryan Cooper scored 7) and then Commercial 7-0. Reigning champions Trafalgar won their first two matches, 6-1 against Whitby Wanderers and 4-0 against Commercial, with Mikey Barker scoring a hat trick, and Klosters won 11-1 aginst Itis Itis, with both Neil Fryirs and Matty Turner getting four goals. Trafalgar Reserves are top of the second division
after winning six of their first seven games, including a 15-1 trouncing of Ayton in which Liam Salt scored seven of the goals. West Riding also made a good start to the season, picking up 13 points from their first five matches, with Curtis Rose and Josh Young both hitting hat tricks in an 11-1 defeat of Roscoes Bar. Josh Bowmaker scored five as Scarborough Sports beat Fylingdales Res 8-4, and Luke Jones also scored five as West Riding won 10-3 against Hull University. There was just one tie in the Scarborough FA Sunday Cup first round, as a Martin Cooper spot kick sealed a 1-0 win for West Pier against Commercial. The draw for round two is as follows- Klosters v Fylingdales Res, Heslerton v Scarborough Sports, Itis Itis v Alma, West Pier v Fylingdales, Ayton v Hull University, Scarborough Sports v Newlands, Tennyson v Cayton and Trafalgar v Roscoes Bar (Ties to be played Sunday 12 October / Sunday 19 October).

Bumper crowds see Lintin lift Gold Cup at Oliver’s Mount
Scarborough Review, Issue 14 - 45
Words & pictures by Andy Standing
ever victory on the Mount circuit.
HUGE crowds flocked to Oliver's Mount for the annual Steve Henshaw International Gold Cup.
Lintin picked up another victory in the first leg of the Lee Pullan Trophy for Super Lightweight machines. Riding his Kawasaki ER6 650 he finished almost 10 seconds ahead of Jamie Hamilton. Kilham’s James Cowton was third with Neesom again in 5th.
So big were the crowds that the Sunday afternoon races were delayed in order to get everybody in and they were not disappointed with some exhilarating racing on offer. Lincolnshire ace, Ivan Lintin was in dominant form all weekend claiming 6 race victories from 7 starts and rounded off a superb year by claiming his maiden Gold Cup from TT legend John McGuinness in second and Lee Johnston in third. After a morning of practice and qualifying the racing got underway on Saturday afternoon with Lintin racing to the first leg of the Dave Jefferies cup on his Honda CBRR1000. Lee Johnston came home second with Daley Mathison picking up the final podium place, Scarborough’s James Neesom finishing in 5th place. Neil Kernohan took the honours in the B race, his first
Lintin continued his form in the Senior A race. Lintin, on his Taylor Lindsey Racing Honda CBRR 1000 finished ahead of Daley Mathison with John McGuinness in third. Ryan Farquhar chalked up another race win in the B race riding a Classic Suzuki F1 1100. In the first leg of the Phil Mellor Trophy Paul Owen, riding a Honda RS250 finished almost 6 seconds ahead of Alistair Howarth, the first time Howarth has been beaten round the Mount this year. Saturday’s final race, for classic Superbikes, saw Jamie Hamilton, on the Mistral Racing Kawasaki ZXR 750 taking the spoils from former team boss Ryan Farquhar.
Sunday’s racing got underway with the second leg of the classic superbikes, Hamilton took an early lead but crashed out allowing Farquhar to record yet another victory. Ian and Carl Bell shrugged off their problems to take the third sidecar race by over 10 seconds from Conrad Harrison and Lee Patterson, and they were to repeat their win in the last sidecar outing with Harrison and Patterson again taking the runners up spot. In the second leg of the Phil Mellor Trophy Phil Harvey got the better of first leg winner Paul Owen with Alistair Howarth back in third place. Ivan Lintin picked where he left off on Saturday claiming the second leg of the Senior A race. Lee Johnston was once again in second spot and Daley Mathison on the Hol Taj Suzuki in third. Ryan Farquhar looked certain to win the B race but was overhauled on the final lap by a charging Tom Weedon on his Triumph Daytona 675.
In the second leg of the Dave Jefferies Cup Lee Johnston was to finally get the better of Lintin and claimed the race win after a last lap error by the Lincolnshire man. It was no more than Johnston deserved after pushing Lintin hard in all the previous outings. Lintin was back to winning ways in the second leg of the Lee Pullan Tropht for Super Lightweights. Lintin was pushed hard all the way by James Cowton, who took second. Jamie Hamilton shrugged off his earlier tumble to finish third. The final action of the weekend was the feature race for the Steve Henshaw Gold Cup. Lintin had claimed pole position in the morning qualifying session from Daley Mathison and John McGuinness. As start time approached the skies darkened and rain started to fall but thankfully this was short lived. Lintin was fastest off the line taking an early lead from McGuinness on the Valvoline Racing by Padgetts Honda with Mick Goodings in third. Lintin slowly extended his lead lap by lap over McGuinness who was
comfortable in second. The battle for the final podium spot swung one way then the other. Bruce Anstey got the better of Goodings only for the charging Lee Johnston to overhaul them both. Lintin claimed victory by over 10 seconds from McGuinness with Johnston a further four seconds back in third. It was a fine way for Lintin, who has enjoyed a superb year, to round off his season.

golfing review by Derrick Arden Allcock seals top success at Scarborough Golf Week THE annual Scarborough Golf Week came to town and as usual attracted competitors from all parts of the UK. The weather throughout the week was stunningly good which certainly added to the general feel good factor of the players. This was also debut year for Mick Atkinson as the event secretary/ organiser. Filey, North Cliff, South Cliff and Whitby golf clubs also earned praise for the condition of their courses.
Belt and Robinson are Order of Merit Champions
Despite the large entries it was a local player who took the major trophy of the week. Andy Allcock (2) from North Cliff claimed The Mayors Trophy for the best aggregate 72 holes gross score played over the four courses. His scores of 70 at Whitby, 72 at North Cliff, 70 at South Cliff and a final round of 71 at Filey gave him a 3 under par total of 283 and a 5 shot cushion over his nearest challenger R Jones from Wath.
Ladies day a hit despite the misty skies The North Cliff Ladies hosted an Open Day and despite the weather 136 ladies braved the murk and fog to play in the 2 from 4 stableford format competition with all four to scores to count on the 18th. The winners list
confirmed the popularity of the venue albeit the home club ladies were not among prizes. First prize went to a team from Fulford, Louise Secker (3), Jean Hinder (18), Marian Miller (19) & Michelle Rogers (21) they posted a

Keep your car healthy this Winter FREE Winter Health Checks at Seamer Garage
Keeping your vehicle well maintained is important all year round, but more so in winter. Make sure all exterior lights are working correctly and that windscreen wiper blades are in good condition. Check the oil, coolant and washer fluid levels. Always ensure you have enough fuel for your journey and remember worn tyres don’t disperse water as well as new tyres.
At Seamer Garage, they provide a FREE Winter Health Check for all types of vehicles. Seamer Garage’s health check schedule conforms to the Bosch Car Service standard, and is approved by Trading Standards. They can provide a comprehensive quote for any work that is required following the check. The garage employs a tyre specialist with up to the minute knowledge of the right winter tyres for your vehicle.
The following checks will help ensure your vehicle is ready for winter:
Car Battery
Cold, damp weather can play havoc with batteries as it’s harder in cold weather to start the engine. When the temperature drops and your car won’t start it’s often an issue with your car battery. It’s wise to check and, if needs be, charge your battery weekly during the winter months, especially if your car is more than 3 years old.
Screenwash
Make sure you have enough screenwash with suitable concentration for cold conditions, look for a product with temperature protection down to -10 degrees C.
Coolant
Ensure that coolant is between the minimum and maximum markers. It is also important that there is sufficient anti-freeze in the coolant. If you’re uncertain, have a look at your handbook or get a local garage to check the strength. Anti-freeze is cheap but damage from a frozen engine can be very expensive to put right.
Seamer Garage will only undertake work once the vehicle owner has given permission to do so with full knowledge of any recommended work.
Tyres Check tyre condition to see if there is adequate tread.
Seamer Garage offers a courtesy of collection and pick-up for all customers and their vehicles, so you need not worry about travelling to the garage on Salter Road in Eastfield.
