OUR CO SAYS HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO THE RAINBOW CENTRE A SCARBOROUGH charity shop has given the town’s Rainbow Centre a pre-Christmas boost. Our Co has bought presents for the centre and filled food hampers which have been displayed in the window of its premises in Northway. The shop has provided woolly hats and gloves for the twice-weekly street patrols conducted by the Rainbow Centre and Salvation Army, who work in partnership. The night patrols are organised by Peter Thompson-Haigh. Our Co is run by a team fronted by Vronny Thorpe, whose daughter Bryony Cappleman, a nursing sister in the hospital's emergency and acute medical departments, ran a collection among colleagues for the Rainbow Centre. Our Co is donating £280 for Bryony and her colleagues to buy presents for Christmas Day patients. “We put them around a tree on the ward”, Bryony says. Trish Kinsella of the Rainbow Centre visited Our Co to accept the presents and hampers. At the same time, Our

Ledden. The Rainbow Centre opened in 1997 to offer practical support to vulnerable local people. Since then, it has grown and offers an open door to anyone in need of help with any issues they are facing, with compassion, support and hope. Each year, the centre makes
around 12,500 critical interventions, helping vulnerable people during difficult circumstances and beyond. Our Co closed this week for a short break and will reopen in new premises in the new year.

George on Armed Forces Day this year
GEORGE Southern was born on 20 February 1921 in Leeds. He left school at the age of 14 to begin his working life as an apprentice joiner. In 1940 he joined the Local Defence Volunteers (Home Guard) in Leeds. In 1942, he was drafted into the Royal Navy and had basic training at HMS Collingwood. He joined the newly commissioned Huntclass destroyer HMS Zetland, which was subsequently deployed on Atlantic and Mediterranean escort duties including the legendary Santa Marija or Malta Convoy of August 1942. In November 1942, the ship was part of the Allied

flotilla involved in Operation Torch – the successful AngloAmerican invasion of North Africa. In December 1943, George was awarded the British Empire Medal for his actions during a heavy German air raid on the Italian port of Bari, where a large number of Allied ships were destroyed, some loaded with mustard gas. George married his fiancée Kay in Leeds on 16 May 1942, during his first leave. At the war’s end, he was demobbed and, after the birth of their son Paul in 1946, the family moved to Scarborough. For many years, the Southerns owned and ran

the Golden Hind restaurant at 73 Eastborough. After Kay’s death in 1995, George became a member of the Royal British Legion, first as a poppy-appeal collector, then as a committee member, treasurer and finally appeal organiser. He was an active member of the committee of Scarborough Sea Cadets, regularly travelling with them to the Netherlands to participate in the country’s Liberation Day. George enjoyed visiting local schools to talk about his recollections of the war years. In 2002, Airlife published George’s book, Poisonous Inferno, World War II Tragedy
at Bari Harbour. As a result, he was interviewed and appeared in documentaries produced in Italy, Japan and, more recently, the United States. George was an honorary citizen of Valletta in Malta and honorary life president of the Scarborough branch of the Legion. Besides being father and son, George and Paul were good pals, enjoying each other’s company and often going out together. George also leaves grandchildren and a greatgrandchild. * George’s funeral will be at St Mary’s Church at 1pm on 4 December.
Barrowcliff is nub of ‘sick jokes’ at charity show JOKES about Barrowcliff cracked by a comedian at a charity show in Scarborough were in bad taste, say audience members who left in disgust. The Full Monty show, at the Spa, was in aid of Saint Catherine’s and Prostate Cancer UK. “Ten minutes into the show a comedian came on stage”, says Kimmie Avison, who runs Barrowcliff community centre and was with a team of volunteers, all from the area. “He proceeds to tell jokes at the expense of people from Barrowcliff, none of which we found funny at all, although there was plenty of laughter
from the crowd below. Had the comedian brought up other areas of deprivation then maybe we would have taken his jokes a little more light hearted; however he didn’t. “After a recent fatal incident in Scarborough we found one of his jokes to be absolutely appalling. Barrowcliff sits under a mountain called Killa-man-for-his-giro. What’s more appalling is people were laughing at this very sick joke! “With this, we made the decision to leave after just 20 minutes, all feeling very angry that Barrowcliff was made literally out to be a laughing
stock. These are people with hearts, people with real problems, people who suffer in silence, people who need help, people who care for others. “As a community development worker in the Barrowcliff area, my job daily is helping these people feel valued and part of a community and give them opportunities to better their lives for themselves and their families”. The sell-out show was attended by the borough mayor, Cllr Hazel Lynskey, who said the comedian “was part of the Rat Pack and the reference to Barrowcliff was not necessary,
nor the comments he made about the council. The Rat Pack were very entertaining when singing but they need to leave the comedy out”. Cllr Bill Chatt added: “I can’t believe in this day and age anyone would see this as acceptable. I am so sorry for Kimmie’s team at Gallows Close who have worked so hard to improve the quality of what is on offer for our families on the estate. I will make a fuss at the town hall over this matter. It’s not acceptable, under any circumstances”.

ELECTION CANDIDATES HAVE THEIR SAY DECEMBER 2019 • ISSUE 76
THE country goes to the polls on 12 December. The Review, which is read in Scarborough, Filey and the surrounding villages, invited all 12 candidates in the two parliamentary constituencies to submit an election address. The four candidates for the Scarborough & Whitby seat are Lee Derrick of the Yorkshire Party, Hugo Fearnley of the Labour Party, Robert Goodwill of the Conservative Party and Graham Lockwood of the Liberal Democrats Party. At the last election, in 2017, Mr Goodwill won the seat with a majority of 3,435, down from 6,200 in 2015. He first won the seat in 2005, narrowly defeating Labour’s Lawrie Quinn, who had served two terms. The eight candidates in the Thirsk & Malton constituency, which embraces Filey and Hunmanby, are Martin Brampton of the Green Party, John Hall of the Yorkshire Party, Kevin Hollinrake of the Conservative Party, Di Keal of the Liberal Democrat Party,
Michael Taylor of the Social Democratic Party, David Yellen of the Labour Party and two independents: Gordon Johnson and Steve Mullins. In 2017, Mr Hollinrake won a comfortable majority of 19,000. The four Scarborough & Whitby candidates and two of the Thirsk & Malton candidates accepted our invitation and their election statements are printed here.

because the taxpayer picks up the bill for failure. Neither Labour nor Conservative will provide anything else. That’s why the Social Democratic Party is reviving now and it’s why I’m standing for election. I want policies that will protect our society, enhance our democracy and foster an economy where abundance, not poverty, is the rule. Why is it that so many of our local problems have been with us so long? Why hasn’t the A64 been properly dualled? How come Northern Rail can suddenly announce an unscheduled delay in raising capacity on the YorkScarborough line? And how come, when Scarborough trials a really successful policy, such as the pathbreaking work in youth justice and rehab, it is the exception rather than the rule. Let’s face it, I’m not going to win: you’ll not need to count the Conservative majority, just weigh it. But Social Democratic ideas and practices will matter more and more in the coming years. So don’t just hope for a better future, vote for it! I have lived in Malton for 15 years or so. Before that I spent much of my early career in Asia – Hong Kong and Tokyo.
Yorkshire needs devolution John Hall, who lives in the Selby and Ainsty c o n s t i t u e n c y, is retired, having run his own financial s e r v i c e s business for 30 years. Previously he worked for a national finance house. Now an active member of the Yorkshire
We can and must do better We must not turn our back on the biggest economy in the world the European single market, which includes the EU and EFTA nations. The Labour and Conservative parties are gambling with the UK's economy and our standard of living. In January, the Office for National Statistics estimated that every single household in the UK is already £3,000 worse off
than we would have been had the Conservative Party not called the 2016 referendum. How much more is this Brexit fiasco going to cost us? We have had three Conservative prime ministers in less than four years. The sooner we realise that the Conservative Party is the problem and not the solution, the better. Tidal lagoons work. Last year I visited one in Brittany, which has been producing electricity since 1966. Sir Ed Davey, the Lib-Dem MP for Kingston, put in place the necessary funding to build our

first tidal lagoon in South Wales. Why did the Conservative Party cancel the construction last year? At best a questionable decision, forgive me for stating the obvious, but the tide comes in and goes out twice a day, and the British Isles are best placed to build dozens of them. We simply must embrace the future and become the global leader in tidal power. Child care is at the forefront of our policies: 35 hours a week to be made free from nine months to four years, followed by provision for an extra 20,000 teachers and £10 billion spent on schools. For adult learning, we are committed to giving a £10,000 skills wallet throughout everyone's lifetime to
Scarborough and Whitby deserve better
Let’s face it, I’m not going to win If we’re going to prosper, the state and the market have got to do a better job of working together. The two major parties don’t honestly believe that in their bones. The Conservatives sincerely believe that, left to itself, the market will solve most problems. When that doesn’t happen, for example, on the railways or buses, their response lacks the conviction and energy needed to set things right. By contrast, Labour distrusts business so much it either wants to tell it what to do or dispossess it altogether. What a choice! The Social Democrats know full well that society provides the framework within which individuals and businesses can flourish, so you need to look after it. Where its institutions are working well, they need cherishing; where they are absent, they need fostering; where they are harmful, they need tackling. After we leave the EU, a whole raft of policy-making comes back home, for us to make of it what we can. Lacklustre government is always incredibly expensive,

Party, he was on its executive committee and is the party's treasurer. John is also involved in organising local branch meetings. He was born in North Yorkshire and has lived in the county all his life. John is committed to improving the lives of Yorkshire folk by helping to deliver meaningful devolution to the region.
I was born and raised in Huddersfield and have lived in London, New York and Edinburgh, returning to Yorkshire five years ago. I now live in Whitby and three years ago my son was born in Scarborough hospital. In May this year I started to serve on the town council. I have worked in the tourism industry for 25 years. During that time, thousands of folk have relied on me without problem to organise and execute their
holidays and once-in-a-lifetime travel experiences. Over the last 10 years I have also been practising and teaching yoga / movement /mindfulness as well as healthspan awareness to folk in Edinburgh and more recently Whitby. As you can imagine, at times I am dealing with delicate and emotive scenarios that require a great amount of trust. It is extremely important to me that the borough and Yorkshire as a whole begins to receive its fair share of Government funding. Regionally, our education,
infrastructure and the NHS have suffered to the benefit of greater London. We also need to be able to live with dignity in our borough, providing meaningful connections and opportunities for the homeless. Affordable housing for so many and providing social-care facilities that not only provide a roof over the head of residents but allow them to enjoy a fruitful and community inclusive existence. Budget parity and receiving our fair share is key to so many challenges we face in the area. If we can, then Yorkshire can not only thrive but also become
We have suffered under Tory austerity I care deeply about this area where I have grown up, been educated and have run a business for many years. I am dismayed at the neglect that is obvious wherever you look. Scarborough is the low-pay capital of the country and has the tragic distinction of being eighth highest on the scale of death by suicide. Our public transport links are in disarray and disrepair. The effect this has on worsening rural isolation is self-evident. In Whitby, we have seen a reorganisation of the hospital but reduction in services. In Scarborough, we see
growing concerns about waiting times and ambulance response times, whilst many patients are being forced to travel to York for more and more procedures. I run a family business and am acutely aware of the enormous pressures on small business people in this area. We live in a beautiful part of the country but have suffered under Tory austerity. Tourism has an important place in our local economy but we must diversify and create the conditions for other sectors to flourish, providing decent, stable employment opportunities for local people. We must tackle the issue of access to housing, in particular addressing the need
for more social housing, as many local people are simply priced out of the market. This is a rural constituency with many farmers who have very real concerns about the effects of a nodeal or bad-deal Brexit. Labour is committed to renegotiating a sensible departure from the EU that protects our economy and, vitally, will not see us tied up in endless trade-deal negotiations for years. If elected to govern, Labour will transform the country but in particular the North. Tory promises of a northern powerhouse have turned out like so many other promises: empty. We will take back into public ownership all those things like
Only the Tories can get Brexit done It is three and a half years since the people of Scarborough and Whitby voted decisively to leave the European Union. The Prime Minister’s deal allows us to not only finish the job and deliver Brexit but also protects employment in industries such as farming and fishing. The 52% who supported leave understood precisely what they were voting for. The Londoncentric Labour Party seems to have concluded that people in the North who voted leave were
too stupid to understand the question and that “they know best!” All Labour can offer is more delay and confusion with another referendum in which they can’t even decide which side they would be on. Only the Conservatives can get Brexit done – even Nigel Farage accepts that. It is only with Brexit delivered that we can focus on getting good trade deals with our major trading partners and focus on the issues that people here on the Yorkshire coast tell me are their priorities. Climate change is the challenge of our generation. The United Kingdom already leads the
developed nations in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We need to redouble our efforts to meet our net zero target. Hosting the COP26 meeting in Glasgow next year will give us the opportunity to set the global agenda. Its has been a hard slog for the British people but we are finally coming to the end of the austerity that was necessary to sort out the economic mess left by the last Labour government. We are recruiting 20,000 police nationally and the first wave of 200 will soon be on our streets in North Yorkshire. We should focus on the crime that is driven by drugs. We need fairer funding for schools
help us cope with the fast pace of change in the 21st century. The 1% income tax levy, ringfenced for the NHS and socialcare provision has been Lib-Dem policy for over 20 years. This will raise £7 billion a year, helping to treat mental health in the same way we treat physical health. This is surely the best way to ensure health provision for all. With an educated, healthy population, producing electricity in a clean and sustainable way, we can all look forward together with optimism. We really can, and must, do better; demand better and support the Liberal Democrat Party.
globally significant and among the world’s best at anything we put our mind to. I know many of you are committed in this election. However, I also know that a good chunk of you are frustrated with your London headquartered political party. Therefore, rather than wasting a vote or not voting at all, lend me your vote. Real change is going to require democracy to be fit for the 21st century. Regional assemblies with access to a fair share of the national budget and respecting the decisions of our elections are a start. Scarborough and Whitby really do deserve better!
rail, water and postal services that should never have been sold off to private profiteers. We will give the NHS the financial support it is crying out for and the same with schools. We will end the scandal of food banks and poverty wages that see even those in work relying on benefits and foodbanks. A big priority for me is our commitment to enact policies that will aim for net zero carbon emissions by 2030 and create hundreds of thousands of new green jobs. I pledge that if elected I will be diligent, hardworking and conscientious in representing the needs and concerns of the people who are not simply my constituents, they are also my friends, colleagues, family and neighbours. in North Yorkshire. We have pledged to deliver a minimum of £4,000 for each primary and £5,000 for each secondary place. Unprecedented investment is going into our amazing NHS. We are training more doctors and nurses to add to the already record numbers. The long awaited £12m redevelopment of Whitby Hospital has been given the green light, banishing fears of closure once and for all. On a recent visit, health secretary Matt Handcock confirmed that Scarborough Hospital’s long-term future is also secure. Accident and Emergency will be transformed with a £40m combined emergency assessment unit. This innovation will bring medical and surgical services to the front door. I hope you can trust me, once again, with your vote.

A Christmas party for children from the community aged 2-11 will take place at the Jubilee Hall on the afternoon of 14 December. It will feature traditional party games, music, food and Santa.
Rev Andrew Moreland, Methodist minister Kevin Ridd, the Salvation Army Band, Cayton School pupils and Santa will join the carol singing around a Christmas tree outside the Star Inn on 18 December, from 6.30pm. A collection will be taken for the band.
Spa event celebrates social-care workers THE first event to celebrate social-care providers on the Yorkshire coast has been hailed a success. Around 500 people from social care and support industries gathered at Scarborough Spa for a sparkling evening. They were treated to live music, a four-course dinner and entertainment which included West End singers and all-round entertainer Steve Walls. Look North presenter Harry Gration announced the charities being supported during the evening: Saint Catherine’s, Age UK, Alzheimer’s Society and Dementia Forward.
Organiser Mike Padgham said: “It was a wonderful evening and a fitting tribute to all those people, paid and unpaid, who work in the care of our oldest and most vulnerable people. We had a fantastic turnout and everyone was in the
mood to celebrate and enjoy some great music, comedy and entertainment of the highest order. Everyone took advantage of the opportunity to escape politics, doom and gloom and enjoy the evening”.

Police officers assaulted TWO police officers were assaulted while arresting suspected drug dealers in Scarborough. They stopped a vehicle in Foreshore Road and received minor injuries while making the arrests.
It happened at around 2.20pm on 14 November after CCTV showed suspicious activity involving two people in a vehicle in the Westborough area. The pair, who are from Scarborough, were charged
with assaulting an emergency worker. A man, 45, was also charged with possession of a class-A drug with intent to supply. A woman, 41, was also charged with driving while disqualified.
Handbag snatched, man arrested A MAN was arrested after a woman’s handbag was snatched in Scarborough. The woman, who is in her 50s, and her husband, who is in his 60s, were on holiday and had been in the Merchant pub before walking up
Eastborough. The thief ran up Leading Post Street and into St Sepulchre Street. A man was arrested and released under investigation pending enquiries. The police are appealing for witnesses and information
about the incident, which happened just after 11pm on 8 November.

Drink-drugs driver causes serious injuries to passengers Bradley Dunlop
Clarity Homecare staff were presented with flowers and plants in recognition of their hard work (to order photos ring 353597)
A SCARBOROUGH man whose driving resulted in life-changing injuries to three passengers has been jailed for over two years. The police say Bradley Dunlop’s car hit a house at such speed that it struck a first-floor window, landed on top of a large porch, and came to rest on the roadside. On 29 March, at about 5am, the police, fire and ambulance services were called to a collision on the B1258 between Ebberston and Yedingham. A grey Seat Ibiza driven by Dunlop had crashed into a house. Three passengers suffered serious injuries. They had multiple fractures and spent long periods in hospital. They are still receiving treatment. Dunlop, who lived in Scarborough at the time, suffered only minor injuries. He gave a positive roadside breath test and a blood sample later showed him to be over the limit for both alcohol and benzoylecgonine, a metabolite of cocaine. There was extensive damage to the property, running to thousands of pounds. Dunlop, 37, pleaded guilty to three counts of causing
serious injury by dangerous driving, driving while over the prescribed limit for alcohol, driving while over the specified limit for drugs and having neither insurance nor licence. He was sentenced at York crown court to two years and four months’ imprisonment, with a seven-year driving ban.

Boyes Santa swaps reindeer for fishing boat WITH his flying reindeer apparently out of action, the Boyes Santa resorted to a fishing boat for the final leg of his journey from the North Pole to Scarborough. The yellow Skylark chugged into the harbour at the appointed time to be greeted
by a large crowd thronging the area around the slipway next to the west pier. Dressed in a red suit and black wellies, all trimmed with fur, the white-bearded one and the similarly attired elves who accompanied him handed out sweets and other goodies

Christmas lights switched on despite atrocious weather SCARBOROUGH’S Christmas lights were switched on by a gaggle of performers in the teeth of some atrocious weather. The elements could hardly have been worse but the big turn-on went ahead anyway. A temporary stage was erected in Westborough, facing down the precinct, and wind blew cold rain straight into it.

It replaced a modern conical structure which was vandalised and ruined before it had been decorated with baubles. Two young men were spotted on CCTV trying to climb it in the middle of the night. One was arrested under suspicion of criminal damage.

Town’s two traditions on new year’s day TWO events have become firm traditions on new year’s day in Scarborough. They are the Lions’ dip on the south beach in the early afternoon and the Spa Orchestra’s concert at the Spa a couple of hours later. About 130 people, many in fancy dress, took part in this year’s dip, which raised over £2,000. Dippers should register at the Rowing Club from 10.30am onwards. Fancy-dress entrants will be judged by the mayor at about 12.30pm. Prizes will be awarded for the best male’s
and best female’s costume. Then everyone charges to the sea. Some just get their feet wet; others go for total immersion. To register, email aldeacon2004@yahoo.co.uk. Over a thousand people usually attend A Viennese Whirl, the Spa Orchestra concert at the Spa Grand Hall, directed by Paul Laidlaw. At the end of the summer season, the 10 musicians leave town to play in other orchestras in London, Glasgow, Manchester and Leeds. They return on new year’s day. The programme consists
of waltzes and polkas by Johann Strauss, his family and other composers who found Vienna to be their city of dreams. Blue Danube and Thunder & Lightning will be complemented by Franz Lehar's Gold and Silver waltz and a selection of evergreen tunes from The Merry Widow. The concert, starting at 3pm, is one of many around the world including the one which started the tradition, in Vienna. Tickets cost £17 (concessions £16) plus £2.50 per transaction and can be booked by ringing 821888 or online at www.scarboroughspa. co.uk.

Big turn-on for Filey’s ‘fishtivity’ tree SALMON nets, crab pots and orange buoys adorn a big modern ‘fishtivity’ tree on Coble Landing in Filey. Constructed with scaffold poles and a forklift, the 25ft tree is topped with a 4ft-long leaping salmon. The conical structure has
about 1,600 eco-friendly LED lights attached to it. They will be turned on at 6pm on 7 December. Ebor Academy Choir will sing songs from 5pm. A local child has labelled it a ‘fishtivity’ tree instead of a nativity tree, says Rex Harrison, one of five locals
behind the festive project. The lights will be on all day and most of the night until after Christmas. Erected by a team of volunteers with a forklift, it has been sponsored by numerous local businesses.

No sign of road reopening
The closed road
HIGHWAYS engineers from the borough and county councils are conducting a joint investigation into subsidence which has led to the closure of a popular Scarborough road.
Jackson’s Lane, which leads to Oliver’s Mount, has been closed for most of the year. The borough council says the land which appears to be subsiding is owned by itself
and private landowners; and that the county council is responsible for the road and footpath until the hairpin bend.
Crown Tavern walk axed after raising £235,000 A POPULAR annual charity walk has been axed after 42 years. The Crown Tavern walk from Hawsker to Scarborough was run for most of the time by a dedicated core trio. Tracey Shaw, Jane Moment and Ray Springall had well and truly done their bit and were ready to hang up their walking boots. They hoped the town’s two Rotary clubs, or another group or organisation, would pick up the reins but it was not to be. Tracey said: “I cannot begin to explain our sorrow that the walk will not continue as it has played an important part in supporting many local charities for the past 42 years, having donated just over £235,000 to them over this time.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you [Scarborough Review] and all the local businesses that have supported the walk over the years. We could not have raised and donated the amounts of funds we have done without it. “We raised £9,371 in walkers’ sponsor money and with gift aid and donations were able to donate £12,250 to the beneficiaries this year”. Rotary Club of Scarborough spokesman Ian Holland said the club was “saddened” by the news. “Unfortunately, the club parted company with the walk two years ago, though members continued to help on the day and two members remained on the committee. “We understand why Jane and her colleagues wish to step
down after more than 100 working years between them organising a highly successful and wonderful event. It had been hoped we could have found another organisation to take on the reins but this has not been possible. As one of the residual members I hope that after a break we may be able to raise support to run the walk again”. This year’s walk had 141 participants and raised over £8,000, which was shared between Mencap, Disabled Swimming Group, Riding for the Disabled, Yorkshire Coast Sight Support, Epilepsy Action, Wilf Ward Trust, Scarboccia, Yorkshire Coast Families, Goalball, the Lollipop Group, Frame Football and Orange Zebra Drama Group.

No cold feet at hospice fire walk NOBODY got cold feet when Saint Catherine’s organised a fire walk in Scarborough. Not least because the temperature of the embers fundraisers had to walk across barefoot was a scorching 577 degrees. Elio Garden of Carlisle firm Inspire Firewalk gave participants a pep talk before they removed their footwear and socks and headed to what he jokingly called “the burning pit of death”. He took them back to school physics lessons to learn about heat transfer from carbon products. Elio’s top tips: don’t walk fast, don’t step on the paraffin flame-strips and wipe your feet on the grass at the end in case any embers have stuck to your soles. The event, at Stepney Hill
Farm, featured a band, the Hummingbirds, some of whom signed up for the fire walk. * The hospice’s next fundraising event is a festive fun run on 8 December, at 10am. Participants can walk, jog, skip or sprint around the north bay starting at Sea Life. There are three distances: 2k, to the Sands and back; 5k to Hairy Bob’s skatepark and back; and 10k, which is the 5k twice. The £10 entry fee includes a Christmassy finisher present and a ticket for Sea Life. The event is suitable for wheelchairs, pushchairs and dogs on leads. * Saint Catherine’s annual Light up a Life services, for supporters old and new, will remember loved ones and support patient care. They include one at Filey
Methodist Church (1 Dec 3pm) and an outdoor one at the hospice (5 Dec 6pm). They will feature carol singing and an illuminated tree. Everyone will receive a candle to make their own dedication; they will all be lit together. * Members of the Portus Felix masonic lodge in Filey visited the hospice to hand over a donation of £870. Phil Harrison, lodge member, said: “We wanted to help Saint Catherine’s as we have done in the past and there is a personal connection, as members have friends and family who have been cared for there”. * A wishing well at the Brunswick shopping centre has raised over £1,300 since it was installed in July. People can leave a donation towards patient care.

New hi-tech trains are back after software issue derailed them THE new Nova 3 trains are back on the tracks after hitting the buffers. The introduction of a fleet of 100mph trains across the north of England was halted due an issue with the software onboard. TransPennine Express announced ambitious plans to unveil 13 new Nova 3 trains on its lines earlier this year. The first two operated between Liverpool and Scarborough via
Leeds for two months. The initial rollout was delayed due to a technical fault discovered during testing. The trains finally took their first passengers on 24 August but were taken out of service at the end of October due to a software fault. They came back into service on 4 November. Now the Nova 3s are back in use, they can stay overnight at a new servicing depot at the back of Boro Tyres in Seamer
Road. Meanwhile, trains continue to operate between Scarborough and York with insufficient carriages, which means many passengers have to stand, despite paying some of the highest ticket prices in Europe. Britons pay 54p per mile to use the rail network, making it the second-most expensive nation in Europe for rail travel, after Norway.

Chelsea Pensioner boosts Children honour former poppy appeal pupils of their school
A CHELSEA Pensioner boosted the poppy-day appeal in Scarborough. Dave Lane, 79, stood in the Brunswick shopping centre one day and Marks and Spencer the next, selling poppies in all their modern variations. Dave, who served 22 years with Royal Signals, said to qualify as a Chelsea Pensioner, people have to be ex-army, single and aged at least 65. “You can live anywhere”, said Dave, who is from Middlesbrough and has lived in Scarborough for 40 years. “There’s about 250 of us scattered all over the country”. It was the first time he had helped with the remembrance collections. On Remembrance Sunday, he attended the service on Oliver’s Mount.
From 1692 to 1955, army pensions were administered by and paid from the Royal Hospital Chelsea, which is why army pensioners were often referred to as Chelsea Pensioners. Those who lived Out, in the UK and abroad, and received their pension in cash from agents around the country were known as Out-Pensioners. Over time, the term OutPensioner fell out of common usage and, in more recent times, it's only those Pensioners who retire to and live at the Royal Hospital who are now officially known as Chelsea Pensioners. These veterans surrendered their army pension and were admitted as residents of the Royal Hospital Chelsea.

In reverent remembrance of the glorious dead HUNDREDS of people attended a Remembrance Sunday service at Scarborough lifeboathouse. They stood on the beach, on the West Pier, in the boathouse and on the launch slipway. RNLI personnel lined one side of the slipway, facing veterans, standard bearers, wreathcarriers, coastguards and army, air and sea cadets. Six standard bearers took part. The service was jointly conducted by Rev Graham Morgan and Rev Pam Jennings. Colin Woodhead, who chairs Scarborough RNLI, made a reading. Music was played by organist Francis Appleby.

WORLD War One came vividly to life for children on a visit to a Scarborough cemetery. As part of a remembrance project, 120 pupils at Gladstone Road primary school paid their respects to some of the 73 former pupils who had joined the armed forces and died in the conflict. Over two mornings, school archivist John Grant, who was deputy head of the junior school until he retired in 2006, conducted four tours of Dean Road and Manor Road Cemetery. The 54,000 people buried or commemorated there include Harry Wilson, who was born in 1889 at home in Candler Street. He went to Gladstone Road School, which was shelled by the German navy in 1914, from 1894-1901. He joined the navy in 1905 and was one of 2,000 men who died in 1914 when their ships were torpedoed off the Dutch coast. It isn’t known if he went down with his ship or perished in the sea. Frank Royle, born in Queen Street in 1896, attended the school and signed up with the Yorkshire Regiment in 1915, becoming a lance corporal and
signals instructor. He died on the western front in France in 1917 during what was described as “a heavy bombardment of German artillery fire” including “a hurricane of exploding shells Harry Wilson, left, and Frank Royle and shrapnel fire”. series of night marches over Wilson and Royle are remembered on family 40 miles, often in pouring rain. headstones in the Manor Road Thinking they were chasing a retreating army, the 40,000 part of the cemetery.

The weekend marked the centenary of Remembrance Day. First observed in 1919 throughout the British Commonwealth, it was
originally called Armistice Day to commemorate the armistice that ended the first world war, on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. On 7 November 1919, a proclamation called for a two-minute silence, where “all locomotion should cease, so that, in perfect stillness, the thoughts of everyone may be concentrated on reverent remembrance of the glorious dead”.

Events mark bicentenary of Anne Brontë’s birth A SERIES of events in Scarborough in January will mark the 200th anniversary of the birth of Anne Brontë. An art exhibition, a talk, two concerts and a candlelit procession will celebrate the author’s short life and work. Later in the year, from 4-6 September, the fractious Brontë Society will stage its annual conference at the Crown Spa Hotel. The exhibition, Anne Brontë p.200, is based on The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, Anne’s second and last novel. It appeared in 1848, the year before she died in Scarborough. Published under the masculine pen name of Acton Bell, it is considered one of the first sustained feminist novels. Two hundred artists have each taken a page as a base for artwork. The results will form an exhibition at Woodend from 11 January - 8 February. It is being organised by artist Lindsey Tyson, who will exhibit her work at the Brontë Parsonage in Haworth from February to May. All the artwork will be compiled in a special-edition book. A talk about The Tenant of Wildfell Hall will be given by Tim Tubbs at Woodend on 14 January as part of a series of lunchtime lectures entitled The Victorian Moral Novel. Tracking the Brontës, Eddie Lawler’s one-hour, whistle-stop tour of the family's train travels,
can be seen at Woodend at 7pm on 17 January and 2pm on 18 January. Eddie, aka the Bard of Saltaire, now lives in Scarborough. This year, he has performed at Robin Hoods Bay folk festival in June, on a boat at Seafest in July, at Scalby folk festival in August and at Mojo’s a month ago. He writes songs, musicals, poems and plays; his work mixes fun with social comment. Woodend tickets can be booked by ringing 384500. The candlelit procession, on 19 January, will start with storyteller Jan Bee Brown at the Grand Hotel, on the site where Anne died. Participants will then walk down to the beach to throw pebbles, with words for Anne, into the sea then walk up to her grave at St Mary’s Church, whose bells will toll. Sarah Dew will debut a recording of a new musical composition in the church. It is part of a celebration weekend beginning on the bicentenary (17 Jan), involving Anne Brontë experts and authors Catherine Rayner, Edward Chitham and possibly others; the details are still being finalised. A second Anne Brontë-themed art exhibition, by Lindsey Tyson and Gillian Martin, will be staged at St Mary’s in April, as part of the Books by the Beach literature festival. The church will dedicate its flower festival at May bank holiday to Anne.

AN annual memorial service run by an undertaker raised £300 for a mental-health charity in Scarborough. The service, at the Friends Meeting House, was organised by independent funeral director George Roberts and jointly conducted by Rev Chris Stephenson and celebrant Ian Baird. It featured Pachelbel’s canon in D major, which is often used at funeral ceremonies.
The service was attended by families and friends of people whose funerals the company had arranged during in the previous year. A collection raised £150, which the family firm, based in Sherwood Street, matched to make £300. It was in aid of Survivors in Alma Square, which Mr Roberts visited to deliver a cheque to chief executive Andrea Woolcott.
He said: “We always like to use a local charity and it was important for us to acknowledge a mental healthcharity in Scarborough. We’ve noticed that many families we’ve had to deal with have had members with mentalhealth problems”.

Market Hall bookbinder is the only one for 40 miles THE time-worn craft of bookbinding lives on at Scarborough’s Market Hall, where the only bookbinder in a huge area plies his trade. Brian Cole’s hands are as leathery as his apron, toughened through years of handling the heavy wooden equipment and traditional old tools used by his forebears for centuries. A bookbinder and book conservator, Brian restores old tomes, makes new ones look old and creates new books journals, address books, art books, etc. Some are falling to bits when they arrive at his workshop on the hall’s mezzanine floor and often need rebinding. A book’s spine frequently has to be resewn. “I try to restore the original binding and keep as much of the original work as possible”, says Brian, who can make a
new book look old by covering it in old leather. The oldest one Brian has restored was one of the first printed books. It was published in 1485, nine years after William Caxton set up England’s first printing press and 46 years after Johannes Gutenberg launched the world's first, in Germany. In an age when more and more books are being read on devices, it’s heartening to come across such a passionate bibliophile. “I’ve always liked books”, Brian says. “But I could never afford the ones I wanted so I found beat-up copies and put them back together”. Brian, who is from Lincolnshire, did a bookbinding course in Grimsby. The craft is now enjoying a renaissance, thanks in part to Shepherds bookbinders helping exservicemen recover from PTSD by learning it. Two
years ago, the London firm resurrected a City & Guilds course in bookbinding which had been dropped through lack of demand. Brian worked in industry until he was 53, when he decided he’d had enough. He and his wife Susan moved to Scarborough in 2003. He worked as a bookbinder in a few places, including Woodend, before acquiring a Market Hall unit in September 2017. The next nearest bookbinder is 40 miles away in York. Brian, whose customers are scattered around the country, is the only local member of the Society of Bookbinders (which has about 30 members in Newcastle). He recently took on an apprentice, local musician Simon Nisbett, to make notebooks. Although it costs about £100 plus materials to restore a small book, there’s much more love
Professional bookbinder Brian Cole applies the pressure with a nipping press (to order photos ring 353597)
than money in bookbinding; it isn’t the kind of profession to make a packet in. Brian’s business, Castle Bindery, runs parallel to his work at the Leeds Library, the UK’s oldest subscription library, founded in 1768. It has 140,000 books. Many have been forgotten about, says Brian, who is responsible for their maintenance. “They
buy 1,500 books a year but have nowhere to put ‘em”. In the library’s vast collection, Brian found a first edition of Darwin’s Voyage on the Beagle, published in 1839 in four volumes. “It’s a very valuable book”, he says. The library has first editions of Darwin's Origin of the Species, Diderot's 18th century Encyclopedie and the first English translation of the
Koran. Brian has just finished a book of his own. It’s a biography of 19th century bookbinder Cedric Chivers, who devised a system to make cheaply-bound books “bombproof” and save librarians a lot of money in Britain and New York. He won gold medals for bookbinding in the USA and Italy but is now largely forgotten.
Theatre and employment Shaggy barman Robert agency sign up for Disability Braves the Shave Confident scheme THE Stephen Joseph Theatre and Castle Employment Agency in Scarborough have become the latest of over 14,000 organisations nationally to join the government’s Disability Confident scheme. The scheme helps employers think differently about disability and improve the way they attract, recruit and retain disabled workers. The theatre has committed to making changes to encourage people with a disability to apply for roles within the organisation. Joint chief executive Caroline Routh says: “We’ve made huge strides in the past few years in making the SJT welcoming and accessible to audiences and visiting companies – this is the next move in what’s very much an ongoing process. “The first step in becoming Disability Confident is to commit to one specific change.

A SCARBOROUGH barman is glad he bought a new hat just before having his hair and beard shaved off in public otherwise his head would have hypothermia. Robert Taylor works at the North Riding brew-pub, where his Brave the Shave took place. He raised about £1,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support by swapping his shaggy, hirsute look for a bald pate and clean chin.
Robert, 56, had collar-length hair and a beard for over a year so he was due a tidy-up. Kearon Harvey of Harvey’s traditional barber shop near the Grand Hotel, who officiates at the annual beard competition at the Spa, completed Robert’s new look in a few minutes, cheered on by a few dozen punters. Robert, who lives in North Marine Road, did it because “friends have had cancer and I
wanted to try to raise as much money as I could to help sort cancer out. Macmillan do outstanding work to support people who have cancer”. He was inspired by his friend Darren Baker who raised about £1,300 for the same charity in the same way, but at the Stumble Inn. Robert says that anyone who would like to chip in a few quid can do so via his Facebook page, which is easy to find.

our case, that will be to guarantee an interview to any job applicant with a disability who meets the ‘essential person specification’ for that role”. Disability Confident organisations play a leading role in changing attitudes for the better. They change behaviour and cultures in their businesses, networks and communities, reaping the benefits of inclusive recruitment practices. The scheme helps employers: recruit and retain highquality, skilled, loyal
and hard-working staff; draw from the widest possible pool of talent; and improve employee morale and commitment by demonstrating that they treat all employees fairly.

Event celebrates achievements of inspirational adult learners THE achievements of adult learners have been celebrated at an awards presentation evening in Scarborough. The East Celebration of Learning was staged by the county council’s adult learning and skills service (ALSS) at the library. Teachers made nominations in recognition of students’ hard work, highlighting the challenges that many adults overcome when they return to learning. Awards were given to outstanding individuals and
groups in a range of subjects, including maths, English, resilience and creativity. Judith Kirk, the authority’s assistant director of education and skills, presented the awards. She said: “It was a privilege to attend the event and such fun. To meet the learners and see how all their hard work has paid off in their achievements was superb”. Michelle Stanley, who received an apprenticeship award, said: “ALSS have been absolutely fantastic. All my tutors have

been great! I always felt well supported by Steph, Justin and Jane, who have been there throughout my three years of study. I have completed supporting teaching and learning at level 3 along with level 2 English and GCSE maths. Three years ago I wouldn’t have thought I could do any of this. Now I stand in front of a classroom full of children”. Other awards went to Chloe Whitwell (health and social care, counselling), Josie
Inchirah Ali and her family with her award
Stefi rises to challenge to win award Stefi Baltatu is the last guide in Scarborough to gain the BadenPowell challenge award. The highest award a guide can achieve, it has now been phased out and replaced by a gold award. She was presented with it by west-division commissioner Gill Armstrong at a service celebrating the unit’s 100th birthday, at Westborough Methodist Church. To achieve the award, Stefi had to make the guide promise, have been in the guides at least two years and gained
two challenge badges and two interest badges. She organised a litter pick in Falsgrave Park, ran a cooking competition, started a new hobby and gained badges in various subjects including world issues and survival. She had to take part in an adventure, going on an overnight trip with guides she hadn’t met before. Hers was a sleepover in Durham Cathedral, says unit leader Fiona Kemp. Stefi Baltatu gives the guide salute as she is presented with her Baden-Powell award by Gill Armstrong
RNLI’s annual memorial service SCARBOROUGH RNLI’s annual memorial service takes place at St Mary’s Church on Sunday 8 December. The service marks the 65th anniversary of one of the worst disasters in the lifeboat’s history. Three crew died when the ECJR lifeboat overturned in the south bay in a terrible storm on 8 December 1954. In atrocious conditions, with enormous waves and a howling gale, the lifeboat had been at sea all afternoon, escorting fishing boats back to the harbour. With its rescue work complete, the ECJR was engulfed by waves and capsized close to the harbour mouth. The deaths of coxswain Jack Sheader, second coxswain

£2,000 raised for children's charity A SCARBOROUGH business has raised £2,000 for a local children's charity. The Little Foot Trust aims to give 12 children a once-in-alifetime trip to open their eyes to new opportunities. Peace of Mind Financial Services in Falsgrave, which supports a different charity each year, organised a gala dinner in January and a cream tea in July, raising £1,000. This was matched by the company.
Set In Stone When it comes to home improvements, countertops can occasionally get overlooked. But the reality is that a high quality and attractive surface can actually become the showstopper of any kitchen or bathroom – and Coastal Granite is proud to provide these to its customers. Specialising in luxury stone

Inadequate funding for childcare, claim Last year’s ECJR service
John Cammish and signalman Francis Bayes devastated their families and numbed the whole town with shock and grief. Every year since then, the anniversary of the tragedy has been commemorated by a church service remembering
those three in particular but also other lifeboat crew who have perished at sea. They include Frank Dalton, who died in a horrific accident in tumultuous seas on 9 December 1951. The service is due to begin at 6.30pm.
A QUARTER of childcare providers say they will close next year due to inadequate funding. New research finds that 92% of childcare providers are going through financial challenges because of the Government’s 30-hours free-childcare scheme. Pregnant Then Screwed (PTS) has carried out a survey of 266 childcare providers, 96%
of whom said the government subsidy to operate the 30 hours ‘free’ cover doesn’t cover costs. The strain on providers means that 22% don’t believe they will still be open this time next year. In April, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development stated that the UK has the second most expensive childcare in the world. “So it comes as no surprise that the industry is in turmoil”, says
PTS. “71% admit they have found it difficult to recruit staff, 90% think childcare workers are badly paid, 63% think they are overworked and 69% say the lack of skilled workers has had a negative impact on their business. All this, when 92% admit financial challenges owing to the stress of providing 30 hours ‘free’ childcare by the Government”.

YORKSHIRE AIR AMBULANCE CHRISTMAS SPECIAL
Air ambulances attend over 1,500 incidents a year YORKSHIRE Air Ambulance is a dedicated helicopter emergency service for the Yorkshire and Humber region. Established in October 2000, it operates two Airbus H145 helicopters in partnership with Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust. The helicopters attend over 1,500 incidents a year, an average of five a day. They cost £12m and should last 2025 years. They have to land in a great variety of places; on one shout, the only land near enough and flat enough to land on was the top of Whernside at 2,415 feet (736 m). The swift medical interventions provided by YAA crews have a major impact on a patient’s chance of survival and subsequent quality of life. In September 2006, a YAA helicopter transported
Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond following his high-speed accident at Elvington airfield near York. Following this operation, a high-profile charity appeal was launched. By 16 October, contributions amounted to £185,770, although payment authorisation of one donation of £50,000 was declined. It is an independent charity that relies solely on the donations of individuals and organisations. To keep both helicopters in the air, YAA needs to raise £12,000 a day or £4.4m a year. As a rapid response air emergency service, YAA serves a population of about five million people across four million acres. Yorkshire has a vast topography that includes remote, rural and densely populated areas, motorways
and main roads such as the M62, M1, A1 and M18. The helicopters are based at the Nostell Priory estate near Wakefield and RAF Topcliffe near Thirsk, which it shares with the 645 Volunteer Gliding Squadron. YAA uses landing pads at various hospitals around the region including Leeds General Infirmary, Hull Royal Infirmary and James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough. YAA was the first air ambulance to own and operate a dedicated air desk in the UK. With the hep of the Air Ways communication systems, YAA has developed into a sophisticated emergency service that provides stateof-the-art emergency medical care throughout Yorkshire.

Air ambulance charity shop raises £750,000 YORKSHIRE Air Ambulance’s only charity shop is in Scarborough - in the Market Hall Vaults. Run by Jean Dixon, it boasts a wide range of new and secondhand clothes as well as CDs, DVDs, toys, bric-a-brac and YAA merchandise. The shop offers a chance to support a worthwhile, lifesaving charity, learn about the work it does and bag a bargain at the same time. Jean and her volunteers have raised £750,000 for the YAA through the shop over the years. Jean, 83, ran businesses in the hall for 57 years until she retired in 2004, when she took on an empty stall to raise money for YAA. In 2017, when the hall was refurbished, the stall moved downstairs into the Vaults. Jean said: “When I first joined
YAA as a volunteer, I set out to raise a million pounds and I’m so pleased to have reached the three-quarters mark. Over the years I have met some fantastic people and I wouldn’t have been able to reach this milestone without their support. It will take me another four years to achieve my dream total and I’m going to try my best to get there”. The charity’s regional fundraising manager, Bob Smailes, said: “Jean is one of our longest-serving and most valued volunteers and a firm part of the YAA family. We are proud of her fundraising efforts and proud to have her as part of our team”. The shop is open six days a week between 9.30am and 4.30pm. Donations of items to sell and new volunteers are welcome. Website: www.facebook.com/ pg/vaultsyaapage.
App can save lives YORKSHIRE Air Ambulance is urging people across Yorkshire to download an app to help save lives. The what3words app is being used by a growing number of emergency services and rescue teams across the world and is now being used by YAA to help save lives across the region. The app developers have divided the world into 57 trillion squares and given each square a unique threeword address that can be
found using GPS. When a caller is unable to identify where they are, they can pass the three words generated by the app to emergency services who will be able to track their location within a threemetre radius. The app is compatible with other apps such as Google Maps, Apple Maps and Waze. It can connect to satnavs. It can be speechactivated and because the app is GPS and algorithmbased, it can be used with no internet connection.
Yorkshire Air Ambulance fundraising staff travelled from across Yorkshire last month to congratulate Jean Dixon at Scarborough Market on reaching her £750,000 fundraising milestone for the Charity.

YORKSHIRE AIR AMBULANCE CHRISTMAS SPECIAL
Lights display has 14,000 bulbs and 100 Xmas trees A BIG Christmas lights display at a Scarborough bungalow is 50% bigger than last year, its creator says. Retired electrician Tony Baker says his enormous collection of colourful lights takes three months to put up and that the council won’t let him keep it up all the time. “I’ve done a scene from the Disney film Frozen 2 this time”, Tony says. Other characters include three wise men, two big angels at either end of a
20ft stage and animals: a goat, horses, a pig, a sheepdog, etc. A couple of hundred people including lots of young children gathered to watch the display being turned on for the first time in Seaview Crescent, a residential side-street a couple of miles south of the town centre. The road was cordoned off for an hour. Tony, who has been steadily developing his display for nine years, estimates that he has over 14,000 LED bulbs and
some 100 Christmas trees. He says the electricity costs about £5 a night and that he is looking for sponsors. Tony is raising money for Yorkshire Air Ambulance. Donations can be made in a yellow postbox built into a garden wall. Tony chose the charity as it helped his wife and daughter a few years ago. * If you would like to sponsor the lights, ring Tony on 07904 980336.
About 200 people turned out to see the lights being turned on (to order photos ring 353597)

Heroes of the skies! Why a flying ambulance? It goes without saying that Yorkshire is huge. Our four million acres of land are spread out over varied terrain, from flat vales to rocky hills. Yorkshire's population is also pretty big, with more than five million people living here (that's more than Scotland). So... getting an ambulance to all those people, around that often difficult terrain, can be tricky. Luckily we have the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. The charity began life in a Portakabin at Leeds Bradford Airport in 2000. The first ever helicopter the charity used was a 20 year old leased Bolokow – something they had to put up with until 2006 when their chopper was updated. That year was also when the charity shot to fame after rescuing Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond when he crashed a rocket-propelled car travelling at 300mph at Elvington Airfield, just outside of York. The Yorkshire Air Ambulance picked him up and dashed him over to Leeds. Following that, donations form the public reached £2 million, and the charity featured in their own BBC 1 documentary series the following year... hosted by

Richard Hammond. As thanks, we assume. In 2008 a second helicopter was deployed, allowing the Yorkshire Air Ambulance to respond to emergencies even quicker. In 2012 the charity opened their own base of operations at Topcliffe near Thirsk, and a second purposebuild base was opened the following year on the Nostell Estate near Wakefield. In 2016 the fleet of choppers was updated by the arrival of two new Airbus H145 helicopters; one stationed at Topcliffe, the other at Nostell. These babies can fly at 160mph!
They need you Don’t worry, the charity isn’t urgently asking you
CELEBRATE National Hot Chocolate Day on the 31st January with the YAA and help save lives across Yorkshire. The Yorkshire Air Ambulance will provide a 1KG pack of cocoa kindly donated by Knighton Foods, which will make up to 50 cups of hot chocolate. If these are sold at £1 a cup, this will raise £50 towards their vital lifesaving missions. Last year in January alone they attended 138 incidents across Yorkshire! It’s easy to get involved: from hosting a Hot Chocolate day at work to organising Hot Chocolate themed parties with your friends and family. Join in the fun today by requesting your hot chocolate pack online and don’t forget to share your creations with YAA on their official Facebook page (Yorkshire Air Ambulance) and Twitter page (@YorkshireAirAmb).

The Greatest Gift
“Okay class, I want you all to take your pens and paper and write down what you and your families will be doing on Christmas Day,” instructed Miss Middleton, as she handed out sheets of A4 paper to the children. “When you’re finished, you can come up to the front of the class and tell everyone how you’ll be celebrating.” “Miss, can we draw pictures?” Asked Joshua Henderson, who’d already scribbled his name on his paper in excitement. “Of course, Joshua. But remember that this is a reading and writing exercise, so don’t spend too long on your drawings.” Joshua needn’t have asked really, as he was quite the illustrator. Before writing any words – apart from his name – Joshua had already sketched a picture of Santa and his helpers, and his reindeer, flying through the sky above his house. Stood outside the house was Joshua, his mum, and his two sisters. “That’s a lovely drawing, Joshua,” said Miss Middleton. “But you need to write about what you’re going to be doing so you can read it to the rest of the class.”
The enthusiasm started to fade from Joshua’s face. Reluctantly, he flipped his paper over and began writing. Before long, Miss Middleton called her class to attention. “Well done, boys and girls. Please put down your pens and paper. Would someone like to come to the front?” Hands shot up all over the room. Every child was so excited to talk about their plans: the presents they wanted to open, the delicious food they were going to eat, and the games they were going to play. The only hand that didn’t shoot up was Joshua’s. Ignoring the frenzy from the rest of the class, the Year 4 teacher focused on the boy who seemed suddenly disengaged. “Joshua? Would you like to come to the front?” Miss Middleton asked. “You can show us your drawing,” she added, with a smile. One by one, the other children slowly lowered their hands and looked at Joshua. Nervously, he brushed his messy brown hair to the side as he walked to the front with his paper. “I will be with my mum and my sisters on Christmas Day,” he began, hesitantly. “Santa will visit and we will have a nice
time.” “What about your dad?” Asked one of the girls in the class. Joshua didn’t reply. “Yeah, won’t your dad be there?” Called out another kid. Joshua shook his head, trying to keep himself composed. “My dad can’t spend Christmas with us,” he said, before pointing to the picture proudly. “Here’s my dad. My mum says he can’t be with us because he’s helping Santa to deliver presents to all the boys and girls in the world. It makes me sad because I wish I could see him, but he’s helping other people so it’s okay.” Miss Middleton swallowed hard before standing up. “Thank you, Joshua. I’m sure you’ll have a lovely Christmas with your mum and sisters, and your dad will be thinking of you while he helps Santa in his sleigh.” When the class ended, the children began to pour out into the corridors to head home for the holidays. “That’s well good that your dad gets to help Santa,” one boy called out after Joshua. “Yeah, I wish my dad was that cool,” said another boy. Joshua nodded. “I just miss him, that’s all. He left a few months ago to help Santa

wrap everything. Mum says she doesn’t know when he’ll be back because it can take a long time to get home after delivering all the presents. She says if Santa really, really needs him then he might never come back.” “Your dad’s a hero, Josh!” The kids called out, before running out the door. With a smile, Joshua’s spring returned to his step, and he headed home. As Christmas Eve fell, Joshua and his sisters began placing mince pies, milk and carrots onto the mantelpiece for Santa and his reindeer. “Mum, can I leave an extra mince pie for dad?” Asked Joshua. His mum nodded gently, and he carefully took another of the sweet treats from the packaging. “Off to bed now, all of you. You’ve got a big day tomorrow.” Joshua’s mum gave her children a kiss on the forehead each, and they hurried off, excited for Christmas Day. As Joshua got into bed, he stopped and sat by the window. “Love you, Dad,” he whispered quietly as he looked up into the sky. With that, he crawled under the covers and closed his eyes.

at the time, wondering who would possibly be calling round on Christmas Day at 7pm. Nervously, she got up and opened the door. Stood on the doorstep was a tall, tired-looking man with dark brown hair. He was dressed head to toe in full army uniform with a name badge that said ‘Henderson’. Joshua’s mum said nothing as she fell into the soldier’s arms, tears rolling down her cheeks. Joshua and his sisters, curious about the mystery visitor, came running in – but stopped in their tracks when they saw what they saw. “Dad!”

Christmas Day was as fun as everyone promised it would be. Joshua received a brand new bike, his sisters got matching dolls houses, and they had the most delicious turkey dinner. As the day began to quieten down, the four of them settled on the sofas to watch a Christmas movie. “Do you think Dad had a nice day delivering all the presents, Mum?” Asked Joshua. “I bet he’s worked really hard, darling,” his mum replied, with a reassuring smile. “Okay, mum,” Joshua sighed, content that his dad was alright. He cuddled into his mum, but couldn’t help wonder how his dad was. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Joshua’s mum looked

Cycle of domestic abuse must be broken Dear editor, For the past 18 months I have been documenting stories with victims of domestic abuse alongside what was meant to be the implementation of the landmark domestic abuse bill which I advised on. This bill has fallen due to the general election, which means it will no longer progress. Even if it had it been implemented, the legislation, promised two years ago, still needed to go further. I am a survivor of childhood abuse. Undiscussable is my new podcast series that presents these stories and voices, including my own, in a deeply personal, raw and challenging rethinking of domestic abuse. I would like to ask for you and your readers to stand with me and hold all political parties to account in this general election and commit to end domestic abuse in their manifesto pledges, improve the fallen bill and implement it as an urgent priority. There were two million victims that we know of last year, male and female adults. Given that 85% of victims of domestic abuse don’t go to the police, the amount is grossly under-reported and under-estimated. The podcast is available at w w w. c h a r l i e w e b s t e r. c o m / undiscussable. Please help me break this detrimental cycle. Charlie Webster Broadcaster and advocate London Community champion reaches out to elderly and disabled tenants Dear editor, The tenants group at Woodland estate had been trying to resolve several serious antisocial behaviour issues that had persisted for quite a few years. Most of the tenants are elderly or disabled, and we needed additional help. The estate is the housing complex (bungalows and flats) that were originally designated for elderly and disabled tenants, known as sheltered housing. In recent years this complex has been run by Yorkshire Coast Homes and now Beyond Housing and has become an area for supported housing which means the tenant profile has significantly changed. We are positioned just off Woodland Ravine, near Manor Road Park, and consist of Woodland Avenue, Woodland Walk and Woodland Rise. As tenants we have had to deal with issues too complex for us to handle on our own but we have had the help of a community champion in the form of Richard Moody, ex-councillor for Woodlands ward.
The issues we faced are being experienced in many areas where the previous status of sheltered housing, giving protection to our elderly and disabled residents, was removed and replaced by a supported housing system which introduced a younger, potentially more volatile, mix of tenants into these areas. These tenants usually had a need for supported housing but the systems to support them appear to be sadly lacking. The result has been a serious increase in anti-social behaviour, which has affected the majority of the other tenants who were living on the estate, to the extent that a large majority have been seeking homes elsewhere over the past few years. Richard is experienced in socialcare issues and has worked ceaselessly to bridge the gap between tenants and agencies to try and find a resolution to these issues and to involve the help of those agencies who are needed to give extra support to some of the more vulnerable tenants. Although Richard lost his councillor status in May at the local elections he continued his interest in our affairs and dedicated his time to making our lives better and our homes and community a safer place to live. We now have a 55-years-and-over status in place, improved lighting around the estate, new security lighting in the flats and much more awareness of how to use the help the 101 system provides. Richard introduced a county councillor to our meetings who has also supported us with a grant to improve other security measures which are now being installed. Richard went far beyond what any of us would have expected of a local councillor and we want to say a huge heartfelt thank you to him for his dedicated persistence for the past 18 months. Jackie Collins Woodland Avenue Scarborough Council must step up to the challenge Dear editor, On 30 October, Scarborough Council’s overview and scrutiny committee looked at the proposals for dealing with the climate emergency that face us all and will affect us all. In a report, the council states that failure to act may result in irreparable consequences for the global community. They say climate change will be all pervasive which means it will require a corporate and holistic approach and that leadership from the top is required to nurture and embed a new culture of climate responsibility across the council. They go on to say that the issue of climate change is not simply restricted to the
council’s internal processes and full engagement and support must be undertaken and offered to our communities to tackle this problem together. The council’s net carbon emissions for 2018/19 are estimated to be 2,100 tonnes per annum. To reduce this to net zero by 2030, the council will have to commit to at least a 10% yearon-year reduction, significantly surpassing the target set in the current sustainability strategy. Finally, that the council should also recognise concerns regarding biodiversity and habitat loss and consider how the council can strengthen local protection and enhancement of species, habitats and ecosystems services under available powers. This must happen within the next 11 years. An ambitious plan will be required to deliver carbon neutrality and the council should be bold in its approach to tackle this issue. The two biggest sources of CO2 are usually transport and heating. We consume more electricity than the average UK household which is probably due to the number of old Victorian buildings with leaky sash windows and high ceilings. Free insulation should be on offer for everyone while hotels and business could offer a discount to customers who arrive by train rather than driving here. We should also be eating North Yorkshire produce instead of salad trucked from Spain or fruit from North and South America. One simple answer for us all is to plant as many trees as we can, turning open spaces and parks into woodland. We have no time to waste and I hope the council will step up to this challenge. However, we must all make an effort if we are to avoid Scarborough’s seafront becoming submerged at every high tide in years to come. Mark Vesey Royal Avenue Scarborough Comprehensive coverage in Review Dear editor, Can I give a big thank-you to Scarborough Review for its excellent, comprehensive music and events listings pages that give smaller venues an opportunity to publicise concerts and help to keep the local live music scene alive and vibrant.

Praise people for unsung heroes Dear editor, In these days when a lot of people are quick to complain about things, I wanted, for a change, to praise people who are often unsung heroes here in Scarborough – our borough council refuse collectors and street cleaners. We often take for granted the excellent service they provide, all year round and in all weather.
Not only do they provide an excellent bin collection service for domestic customers and businesses, they also do a great job keeping our streets clean. It must be really difficult, particularly during the busy summer months, keeping the bins from overflowing and keeping the grass verges free of rubbish. We should all do more to support them, by picking up any litter we see lying around and helping to keep the town beautiful.
They do a great job and among all the brickbats the council receives, they do deserve credit instead. More power to their elbow and long may they continue to do Scarborough proud. Mike Padgham Managing director Saint Cecilia’s Care Group Eastfield House Eastway Eastfield

SCARBOROUGH TALES
Words by Joe Coates and photos by Dave Barry
Whenever our grandchildren come to stay for a few days, we ask them what they would like to do in Scarborough. High on their list of favourites is “going to Boys-es”. Boyes have had a store in Scarborough since 1881. Boyes now have more than 60 stores across the North East, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire, and it all began in Scarborough.
LET’S GO TO BOYS-ES GRANDPA was looking after Zinzi. “What would you like to do?” “Let’s go to Boys-es!” “Why Boys-es?” “I want to see the Nativity in the window.” When they got there, Grandpa first took her upstairs to see all the old photographs and store history information. It’s fascinating. Scarborough 1881.A local young man, William Boyes, felt he could sell things. He had some ideas and a bit of money. He opened a small store in Eastborough and began to sell remnants and odd lots from merchants. He sold material for the poor to make their own clothes. There was poverty in the working classes, so William kept his prices low. Scarborough’s housewives were keen for a bargain. “Isn’t it great at Boys-es! It’s good value!” His trade increased over five years, so he started to look for a bigger building. In 1886 he bought two adjacent units at the corner of Queen Street and Market Street, and his shop developed into a department store. “Come in! Take a look! You don’t have to buy!” Business kept growing.
Twenty years later a store was opened in York. The name of Boyes was established and trusted, and to this day the Boyes Stores company has been managed by generations of the Boyes family. The store’s name was established as “The Remnant Warehouse” and known affectionately as “The Rem.” Amelia worked at The Rem. There was a day she would never forget, February 26th 1915. She was on her way to work. As she got nearer to Queen Street she could hear a lot of noise. Amelia turned the corner and her heart sank. “The Rem” was burned down, gutted by fire. Black smoke blew around black pieces of burnt wood. Firemen were dampening it all down. The fire had spread to adjacent properties: shops, houses, the Wesleyan chapel. The one penny local newspaper, Scarborough Pictorial, described a “waste of ruin and desolation,” “tons of shattered masonry and twisted ironwork.” The paper saw the irony; The Remnant is now a remnant. The staff, the

customers, indeed the whole town were devastated. Out of the ashes is an appropriate phrase. A new store was built, as were the other damaged buildings, and Boyes have faithfully provided quality bargains ever since. Boys-es is well known locally for the big window displays. These have been done for a number of years by Elaine Truman. Particularly at this time of year, there’s a lot of work. Santa’s grotto. On 16th November Santa arrived in Scarborough on a boat and made his way on a sledge to the store, where he lives until Christmas Eve, meeting and greeting children who visit him. It’s a wonderful experience for them. Zinzi was getting impatient.“Let’s go to the nativity.” “Ok! That’s what Christmas is about.” The display this year highlights the visit of the wise men to the stable in Bethlehem. Alongside classical ornate figures of Jesus, Mary, Joseph, an Angel and the Wise Men are large soft-toy animals: camels and

a donkey. There are plenty of stars, and a large amount of hay. Cousin Zinzi’s eyes shone. “Look! There’s Jesus,” she whispered. “There’s the manger. What’s that writing? The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay! We sing that at school!” Later, as they headed to their homes, they both began to

Spital Inn should host a Flixton werewolf festival Local artist Dav White talks about the fascinating world of history, art and mythology THE night of 29 November is St Andrew’s Eve. Since before medieval times, the spirit of St Andrew was invoked for protection on this night, using a particular prayer to ward off wolves. Wolves were thought to behave very differently on this night. It was believed around Europe that wolves have inherited special privileges on St Andrew’s Eve and that they are able to talk and to converse with humans. In 1798, the antiquarian Thomas Hinderwell, in his book The History and Antiquities of Scarborough and the Vicinity, writes: “Flixton, at the foot of the Wolds, was founded in the reign of Athelstan, in 924AD. There was built a hospital for the preservation of people travelling that way, that they might not be devoured by wolves. There is a certain parcel of land in this vicinity distinguished by the name Wolf-land and on this spot where the hospital anciently stood is now a farmhouse called Spital”. According to ancient custom, the vicar should say a solemn mass in the Spital chapel on St Andrew’s Eve. Spital Farm lies on the road to York, seven miles out from the gizzard of the old town. Wolves troubled this area for a long time, according to Hinderwell, but one wolf in particular seems to have troubled this area since 1968. A Ghost Hunter's Road Book, by John Harries, published in 1968,
describes the Flixton werewolf as “a fearsome beast equipped with abnormally large eyes and exudes a terrible stench. The animal is supposed to fell nocturnal wayfarers with its tail which is almost as long as its body. Its eyes are crimson and dart fire and roams the area of Flixton”. In a letter to Scarborough Review a few years ago, Roy Field of Hunmanby explained his thoughts on my previous article on the Flixton werewolf. “I wonder, did I inadvertently invent the werewolf 50 years ago? I was employed as a reference and local studies librarian for Scarborough libraries. One day a reporter from the Scarborough Mercury came into the library asking for information on Folkton church, where strange lights had been seen at night. The reporter wanted to know if there were any ghost stories or legends connected to Flixton Carr. I checked all the available books but much to his disappointment came up with nothing. Was there anything else of interest, he asked? I told him about Star Carr and the discovery of various animal bones including those of wolves. Hearing this, he perked up, made some notes, thanked me and left. I thought no more about it but was mightily surprised, and amused, to read an article a couple of weeks later about werewolves on Flixton Carr! Much later, in a bookshop in Scarborough, I
noted a new book on ghosts. It could well have been the 1968 book mentioned in your article. I idly glanced through it and was amazed to see that there was now an entry for Flixton and Folkton with werewolf tales. Of course, what I don’t know is who the reporter talked to after me. Maybe he met someone who genuinely knew of Flixton legends that were not in my library sources. I’ll never know, but maybe the truth is out there on those damp mysterious carr lands”. Sporadic big-cat sightings have been reported seen roaming along the Carrs, edges of the moorland and the coastline. A resident of Flixton informed me: “We saw what we thought was a dog in the field above. It was a big dog-like thing but it didn't look like a dog, it looked like a cat, a 'dog cat' we thought. I asked my dad about this and he said that when keeping weird exotic pets became illegal, people chucked them out into the wild. We thought this is what it could be. I was really scared”. The names of our towns and villages are often the result of settlers from Europe making their homes here from Scandinavia, Norway and Denmark prior to the Norman invasion of 1066. In his book Crossing the Borderlines: Guising, Masks and Ritual Animal Disguises in the European Tradition, Nigel Pennick explains: “At the start of each month, certain
Norse men underwent a form of madness that made them into wolfs and dogs, who then spent the night roving around. Perhaps legends of werewolves originate from such ceremonial madness?” A lycanthrope is such a wolf-man, from the Greek lykos (wolf) and anthrōpos (man), applied to people who transform into wolves. In this same area of wolf-land is the ancient settlement of Star Carr, an archaeological site that has produced some many mysterious objects made by the first settlers in this area 11,000 years ago. Eminent
Cambridge archaeologist Sir Graham Clark, who led the initial investigations at Star Carr, saw similarities in the strange headdresses he excavated at Star Carr, and the shaman headdresses documented in the 17th century records of the dutch explorer Nicolaes Witsen. Witsen had made observations of the remote tribes of Siberia and his records included a drawing of a Siberian shaman chanting, banging a ritual drum and transforming into a wolf. Werewolves are traditionally associated with the moon. The Greek philosophers
Aristotle and Pliny the Elder both theorised that as the moon affects the tides, it could also affect the brain, which is 73% water after all. Strange behaviour linked to the phases of the moon gave rise to the word ‘lunacy’, describing strange or eccentric behaviour. Lunar is Latin for the moon. I’ve long thought that as a wintering gothic antithesis to the summer Staxtonbury music festival, Spital Inn should host a Flixton werewolf festival, with suitably named bands and seasonal tomfoolery.

Putting it on the map By Roger Osborne CONFESSION time. I have been fascinated by maps since I was knee-high to a Silva compass. It all started with a gigantic atlas of the world that my folks bought to keep the kids quiet. And it worked; I spent hours and hours poring over the names and shapes of towns and rivers and lakes and coastlines , from Ouagadougou to Okavanga and from the Atacama Desert to Macgillycuddy’s Reeks. I fell in love with places I would never visit (that wasn’t the point) and run my finger over mountains and plains I would never cross. Now I think about it, my cartophilia was probably what got me into geology in the first place. Geology maps are a special case, coloured to show the rocks that lie
beneath the surface at every point. This gives them a slightly bewildering appearance, but they are dazzling too and, once you get to decode them, they are packed with fascinating information. Which brings us to Scarborough Art Gallery which, until early January, is displaying an original copy of William Smith’s 1815 Geological Map of England and Wales. Smith was a professional canal surveyor whose work led him to two revolutionary conclusions. First that the rock strata of England lie in a regular sequence that is consistent and predictable right across the country. And second that particular fossils, or groups of fossils occur in particular rocks, and so the rocks can
be identified from their fossil assemblages. When Smith tried to profit from this knowledge by drawing and printing his geological map he ran into financial difficulties, became an itinerant lecturer and ended up being rescued from penury by the natural historians of Scarborough – as shown by the blue plaque at the corner of Bar Street and Newborough. Alongside Smith’s great work is a fascinating exhibition of maps by the artist Kathy Prendergast; by colouring the same maps in different ways she shows how humans impose themselves on, and interpret the landscape, and how we can alter those interpretations. (By coincidence on the day of my gallery visit someone on the
radio was describing a map of the Midlands highlighting rivers, forests and green spaces to show the natural world hidden in plain sight amid the motorways and concrete.) And if that’s not enough landscape, the gallery is also showing a series of spectacular watercolours by Kane Cunningham, an artist who just gets better and better – this is high quality art to sir the soul. Don’t miss it. The display is on at Scarborough Art Gallery until 5th January.

Curious Roots BY HEATHER ELVIDGE
BY SHEILA JOHNSON
Everything’s coming up roses By Sheila Johnson THE Muck and Magic garden still has lots of winter jobs waiting to be done but the recent heavy and long spells of rain has meant that the soil is not in a suitable condition to be worked. Every good gardener knows that if the soil sticks to your boots, stay off it until it’s dried out. However, there is one job you can be doing in the garden if you are desperate to get out into the fresh air. December is the ideal month for looking after your roses. Rose pruning is usually a two stage operation - mid winter when the plants are dormant and mid spring when they are just waking up! Whatever sort of roses you are growing, tea , floribundas, climber there are some general rules which apply to all of them. Always cut to just above bud and remove all dead, diseased or dying wood leaving healthy plant material for next season. Hybrid Tea and floribundas can be pruned by a half to a third now to stop them rocking in the wind. If this isn’t done, the wind will loosen the rootball and cause your precious plants to become unstable. The next pruning date will be mid to late March, just as spring is breaking,when you can prune all the stems further, about 6 to 12 inches high. Climbing roses on a house wall or a trellis can also be pruned and tied in now. With a good pair of gloves and a sharp pair of secateurs take out all the dead, diseased and dying wood and any branches which are crossing or rubbing. Take a moment to give your
climber a good looking at. Take out some of the oldest wood down to ground level and tie in the youngest, most vigorous growth which will produce flowers next season. Shorten any long wippy shoots which will blow about in the wind, and tie them into your wires. Growing roses in containers is ideal for the patio garden or courtyard gardens when space is at a premium. The secret is to choose carefully and pick plants such as patio or miniature roses which will be happy in a pot. Once the garden soil has dried out December is an ideal time for planting bare root roses. These are good value as you won’t be paying for pots and containers but there is a limited time frame (December to March) in which to buy these plants. Finally,to help keep pests and diseases at bay, now is the time to clean up any dead rose leaves around the base of the plant. This will certainly help to reduce fungal and mildew infections overwintering and causing problems in spring. Muck and Magic Garden Club will be meeting on Monday December 9th at Ebenezer Church Hall on Columbus Ravine in Scarborough. We start at 7pm and our speaker will be RHS Judge Roger Burnett who will be guiding us “Around The Flower Shows” and giving us hints and tips about what the judges are looking for. Everyone is welcome. Please contact Sheila on muckandmagic@hotmail. com for more details. Happy Gardening!
Changing traditions By Heather Elvidge RUDOLPH and his reindeer chums, with the ox and ass in the Bethlehem stable, are the animals we used to think of at Christmas. Wrens, robins, horses, rams, boars and, er, fairies, also had their part to play. To this list we can now add foxes, mice, flamingos, unicorns, and alpacas. Don’t pretend there’s not one on your tree. Traditions are seldom unchanging, and festive traditions are no exception. No longer do we open presents at New Year, or wait until the winter solstice to bring in trees and holly. But Advent is about waiting, anticipating the arrival of the holy child. Each Sunday churches light another candle on the Advent wreath, a circle of evergreens representing eternity and hope. The last is lit at midnight on Christmas Eve, marking the arrival of the Light of the World. Light and the lack of it are at the heart of our midwinter festival. At the solstice on December 22 the Sun climbs to its lowest midday point, giving us the year’s shortest day. Our ancestors, fearing this bleak time of transition, took solace from plants that kept their leaves in spite of winter’s chill. Holly, ivy, box and yew held the promise of new life, and the return of the Sun. Holly’s beneficial magic is at work today — that holly wreath hung on the door is there to keep malign forces out. Giftbringers, of course, are welcome. December 6 is the feast day of St Nicholas, a fourth-century bishop whose habit it was to leave money for the needy. Legend credits him with inventing the Christmas stocking — and the pawnbrokers’ sign of three golden balls — when he dropped gold coins into stockings belonging to three impoverished sisters. The stocking custom appeared in northern England in the 1860s when Nicholas, not Santa Claus, was responsible for the presents. In parts of Europe the saint on his white horse arrives with gifts for children who’ve been good. For the ones who haven’t, an awful fate
awaits. Among N i c h o l a s ’s followers are the Krampus, mountain monsters whose sole purpose is to chastise the undeserving. T h e s e grotesques, in horned masks and goatskins, roam the streets of Alpine villages in the first two weeks of D e c e m b e r, clanking chains and whipping passers-by with birch twigs. All very festive, and now we can enjoy this tradition. Whitby was the first UK town to host a Krampus Run and the parade on December 7 will be the fifth. If you fancy a hairy, scary experience hang around Church Street from 3.30pm — smelling salts are optional. Monies raised go to Whitby Wildlife Sanctuary, St Catherine’s Hospice, and Scarborough Dog Rescue. Those crazy Austrians are not alone. Our Yuletide visitors from the dark side took the form of a horse, ram or bull’s skull sporting ribbons, bells, and glass eyes. The skull was fixed to a pole held by a man hidden under a sheet. He made the jaw snap by means of a rope and springs, and generally behaved like a frisky beast. Compared to the Krampus this doesn’t sound too terrible, but imagine it coming to your door on a dark night. In the North we had the Hooden Horse. Brave souls placed coins between the horse’s teeth, and in return the Hoodener offered a wise saying, ‘from the horse’s mouth.’ Today, pubs in Richmond, Yorkshire are the venue for the Poor Horse Players, who perform their short folk play at Christmas time. In south Wales the Mari Lwyd, or Grey Mare, ventures out during the Twelve Days. In
Dorset the ghastly visitor is a bull named the Ooser, and in Derbyshire it’s a ram called Old Tup. It’s often said that Christmas has moved too far from its religious origin, but this has been a problem from the start. In the fourth century, Church leaders had to remind their flocks to celebrate in a heavenly manner, instead of dancing, eating and drinking too much. Lucky they hadn’t heard about about the Hooden Horse. There’s an unexpected addition to the festive calendar on December 12, when ballot boxes will be decked with tinsel and officials will sport Santa hats and beards. The full moon — the Moon before Yule — will cast its soothing light on harassed voters rushing to catch the polling station before it closes at 10pm. The next day is Friday the 13th, an unlucky day for some as the election results are fully digested. In Scandinavia the 13th belongs to a saint. Lucia, robed in white, wears an evergreen crown studded with lights. Her followers carry candles, for this is a peaceful festival of light. Lucia services are popular in the UK; York Minster’s is on December 6. In folklore midnight is uncanny, a time between days
when magical things happen. This is especially true on Christmas Eve, when Santa enters our homes by way of the chimney. Originally a tiny, elf-like being, his girth has increased dramatically over the years, probably because of all those mince pies and glasses of whisky. But it’s wise to reward a helpful elf — especially one that leaves gifts — so don’t try to put him on a diet. While the rotund elf is sweeping our chimneys, at midnight cockerels begin to crow — even the metal ones on weathervanes. Cattle kneel, bowing to the east like their ancestors at the holy birth. Bees in their hives hum a psalm. And for a few moments all animals are gifted the power of speech, but eavesdroppers may hear something they’d rather not know. This is what the man heard who hid himself in his master’s stable: “We shall have hard work next week,” said one of the horses. “Yes,” the other agreed. “The farmer’s servant is heavy. And the road to the graveyard is steep.” It’s probably best to head for some pine trees at midnight, where we may hear the celestial music of angels. Have a happy and peaceful Christmas.

Exhibition by printmaker and poet ARTWORK by a printmaker and poet runs at Gallery 6 at the lower end of Victoria Road, Scarborough, until 13 December. Jo Reed says: “It is titled The Other Side because it will have elements of both sides of my practice. The poems often arrive through a print or drawing and vice versa”. Jo experiments with the many forms offered by both disciplines, exploring recurring themes of identity, loss and place. Educated to degree level in
graphic design, illustration and printmaking at Cambridge and Hornsey art schools, Jo has held one-person shows in London, Athens, Beunos Aires and, more recently, Helen Birmingham’s Studio gallery in Scarborough. She has spent a lifetime in art education in formal and informal settings. She achieved an MA in creative writing at Newcastle University in 2009 and began writing and illustrating poetry after retiring in 2010. An exhibition by Sarah Venus
and her daughter Maddy Venus has just finished at Gallery 6. Sarah’s prints, paintings and collages reveal her interest in the rocks and strata of the coastline she regularly walks. Maddy uses textiles and mixedmedia sculpture to express her ideas surrounding multiple personalities, identity and the self within modern culture. Gallery 6 is usually open from 11am-4pm Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Check its Facebook page for updates. Sarah Venus at Gallery 6
Shifting Sands micro-festival of untold stories and unheard voices A MICRO-FESTIVAL of untold stories and unheard voices takes place in Scarborough over the next couple of months. Shifting Sands will feature screenings of two internationally renowned documentaries for the first time on the Yorkshire coast, archive film of life on the coast in days gone by and the creation of a community magazine. The festival will take place at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, the Market Hall and creative hubs around town. It is being produced by emerging community cinema collective sea/film, which is based at Koda café in Northway. Sea/film co-founder and lead programmer Martha Catell said: “Shifting Sands is our biggest and most ambitious line-up of alternative film culture yet. Our screenings are truly accessible. We want to involve the whole community in archive film, documentary and creativity because the stories we are exploring are so relevant and important to local people here. We are tackling big themes around the environment, the places people call home and how life changes before our eyes”. The documentaries, to be shown at the SJT on 1 December, will each be followed by Q&A sessions
A scene from The Great Flood
featuring experts in their fields. Tickets cost £5 per film or £8 for both. The Great Flood (2012, 80 mins, 3.30pm) is about the most destructive American river flood in history. In the spring of 1927, the Mississippi burst its banks in 145 places and inundated 27,000 square miles to a depth of up to 30 feet. The flood’s legacy included the exodus of displaced sharecroppers and the migration of black people to northern cities such as Detroit and Chicago. This in turn led to the reinterpretation and rebirth of music - delta blues became Chicago blues, R&B became rock and roll. Director Bill Morrison uses little text and no spoken word, just guitarist Bill Frisell, to create a powerful portrait of one of the seminal moments in US history. With climate changes and Yorkshire floods high on the news agenda, the film has never been more relevant. The second film, Honeyland (2019, 90 mins, 6.30pm), tells the remarkable story of Europe's last female beehunter, who is on a mission to save bees. Sea/film co-founder Paul Drury-Bradey buzzes: “It is relatable and important for everyone who loves flowers, their gardens and values our shared ecosystem”. It was
directed by Tamara Kotevska and Ljubomir Stefanox. For the next part of Shifting Sands, the sea/film team will work with local artists, writers, photographers, designers and community groups to create a zine. It will feature previously untold stories and unheard voices, using alternative film culture as a new lens to look at life on the coast. Submissions and expressions of interest are welcome; email seafilmscarborough@gmail. com The third, free part of Shifting Sands will be in early January (date tbc) in the Market Hall Vaults. Archive footage of life in Scarborough, Whitby and the countryside will be accompanied by music, maps and surprises. Other partners include Black Friar Wine Cellar, and Totally Socially. The project is supported by national lottery funding awarded by the BFI Film Audience Network. * Sea/film have offered five pairs of tickets for the SJT double bill to give to Scarborough Review readers in a competition. To enter, email editor@ thescarboroughreview.co.uk and tell us where the documentaries are being shown. Please put Shifting Sands competition in the subject field.

Book project addresses area's unbalanced literacy aspirations A LITERACY project which began at Scalby Fair culminated in a book launch at Scarborough Library. David Lewis, a literacy champion, publisher and expolice officer, invited local families to take part in a writing event at the annual event. He asked children to write a short story based on his old Morris Minor police car, which he took to the fair. Fifteen young writers, aged between 5 and 10, contributed a story each. All have been published in a book, Stan Goes to Scalby Fair. The initiative is part of Our Stories, a National Literacy Trust (NLT) campaign to raise literacy levels. Liz Dyer of the NLT was keen to support the project and provided 80 books to give away at the fair to encourage literacy. “We get lots of books sent by publishers”, she said. “The project has received much more interest than we expected and is being used as part of the
NLT’s marketing nationally”. The initiative, also supported by the International Police Association, “is aimed at helping to address the area's unbalanced literacy aspirations”, David says. "There is considerable individual wealth in Scarborough and some of the biggest names in specific businesses exist here, unknown to many people. But there is also a lot of disadvantage sitting alongside the success stories. This is one of the highest concentrations of disadvantage gap in the country, which we are trying to address. “The disadvantage gap is a particular issue across the North Yorkshire coast. We are trying to address this by ensuring that seldom-heard individuals and communities receive the support they need to develop their literacy skills, which provide the foundation for greater fulfilment in life”. Liz adds: “Ten wards in
Scarborough, Filey and Whitby have literacy levels significantly below the national average. Pupils in the Scarborough district consistently achieve lower results in reading and writing than the national average, so projects like this profile a love of reading in an invaluable way”. At the book launch, the borough mayor, Cllr Hazel Lynskey, presented the young writers with copies of the book, watched by about 30 parents. Some of the children read out their stories, in the library’s children's area. Stan Goes to Scalby Fair, published by Bryn Stowe Publications, can be bought online at brynstowe.org for £4. * Stories about the area's beaches are being invited for a second book, to be called Stan Helps the Beach Patrol. They can be posted to 3 Hay Lane Terrace, Cloughton, YO13 0AJ. The closing date is 12 January.
Scottish singer tops bill at festive concert A SALVATION Army singer from East Kilbride tops the bill for the 22nd annual Festive Spectacular, at the Spa Grand Hall on Saturday 14 December. Matt Ramsay’s career took off after videos he posted on YouTube were picked up by the manager of one of the Nolan sisters. Having sung with the Sally Army while growing up, Matt, who works as a commercial sports co-ordinator in Glasgow, thought his love of music would always be a hobby. Things changed when Anne Nolan’s manager Marc Nixon spotted clips of Matt online. He was blown away by Matt’s extraordinary singing voice and decided to take him under his wing. The Scot, not to be confused with American country musician and songwriter Matt Ramsey, said: “When Marc contacted me I was absolutely gobsmacked. I didn’t believe it at first and thought it was a wind-up. But before I knew it I had recorded Guest singer my first Matt Ramsay s i n g l e
and a UK tour had begun. It’s a dream come true and I am really excited about it. Of course, I would love it to take off and become my full-time job but I haven’t given up my day job just yet”. His debut single, Say What You Will, was penned by Robert Puzey, who wrote the Nolans’ hits, including I’m in the Mood for Dancing. Sharing the bill at the Spa are Celebration Brass, comprised of 32 salvationists from all over the north, and the United Schools C h o i r , featuring about 120 pupils from five schools.

concert will be compèred by Look North presenter Harry Gration, a frequent visitor to Scarborough. “To date, we have given away in excess of £85,000 to local charities and groups”, says organiser Nigel Wood.

Dive Into Christmas At Sea Life
THIS Christmas, Sea Life at Scarborough is inviting children – and their grown-ups – to visit its magical underwater wonderland. Santa’s set up his very own grotto in the award-winning aquarium, where little ones will be able to embark on an exciting Christmas tour with Santa’s Elves and learn all about the magnificent
creatures that live within Sea Life. Festive workshops will also take place – including making reindeer food. Of course, the usual sights will delight – and there’ll be plenty of sea creatures to spot – including seals, penguins, sharks, and so much more. Entry to the aquarium includes the special Christmas tour, so it’s a perfect time to visit.
Snowflake Saturday at Ayton library SNOWFLAKE Saturday at Derwent Valley Bridge Community Library in West Ayton will feature a Christmas hamper draw, at 2pm on 14 December. High-quality crafts and seasonal produce made by library volunteers will be for sale. “Shop for all your Christmas goodies and unusual and imaginative gifts and help us raise funds for this valuable community resource, run
totally by volunteers”, says spokesperson Suzanne Carr. Draw tickets cost £1. There was a great atmosphere and a full house for the start of a season of talks at the library. Tim Tubbs gave an entertaining and informative talk about Scarborough-born actor Charles Laughton. John Dalton will talk about the mystery of music on 13 January. Tickets cost £4 and can be obtained from the library or by ringing 863052. Advance booking is advisable.
The art of the wood engraver Mike Atkin told the Friends of Scarborough Art Gallery about the art of the wood engraver at their November meeting. His hero, Thomas Bewick, championed the art in the early 19th century. Using boxwood, a slow-growing tree producing extremely hard and finely grained wood, and engraving with fine tools, an artist can produce prints of exceptional detail. Mike showed us his worked blocks and prints and illustrated his talk with slides of the tools and art of this surface printing process.
Following the tour, children will be led into Santa’s grotto, where they will meet the man himself and be given a free present to take home and put under the tree. Children aged two and under will be admitted free of charge. This exciting event gets filled up extremely quickly – so booking is highly recommended.

Gay lawyers and literary deceit at film society JAPAN’S first and only law firm run by an openly gay couple is the subject of Scarborough Film Society’s next offering. The partners know only too well the realities of being a minority in a conformist society, risking alienation and persecution. Of Love & Law, directed by Hikaru Toda, was described by Guardian reviewer Mark Kermode as “a fascinating watch, alternately touching and amusing, uplifting and
heartbreaking”. The Evening Standard called it “one of 10 LGBTQ+ documentaries you need to watch” (2 Dec, 15, 94 mins). Can You Ever Forgive Me? is the society’s next film. A bestselling celebrity biographer falls out of step with the literary market, is unable to get published and turns her writing skills to forms of deception, aided and abetted by a loyal friend (Richard E Grant). In this shaggy, melancholic,
true story, directed by Marielle Heller, Oscar nominee Melissa McCarthy delivers some of her best work yet as the struggling writer who finds an unlikely new source of income (16 Dec, 15, 106 mins). The other films coming up are Fishermen's Friends (6 Jan), The Guilty (20 Jan), Faces, Places (3 Feb), Capernaüm (17 Feb), The White Crow (2 Mar), Everybody Knows (16 Mar), Wild Rose (6 Apr) and Green Book (20 Apr).
Films are shown at St Mary's Parish House in Castle Road on Monday evenings. Parking is free at the nearby Friars Way and Castle Road council carparks after 6pm. Tickets cost £45 for the season (seniors £40, students £25) or £30 for any eight films or £5 per film. For details, ring Guy on 07748 280871 or email guysmith@tiscali. co.uk.
In the 19th century, printing from engraved wood blocks was the favoured way of adding illustrations to text in books and newspapers. The Illustrated London News employed 22 engravers, each producing a block of part of a picture. Mounted together, the blocks created the magazine’s celebrated illustrations. The rotary press and, later, photography, made engravers redundant, but books made from hand-printed sheets retain their admirers. At the Friends' next talk, at the art gallery on 9 December, Patrick Argent will talk about Henri Toulouse-Lautrec. Admission £3.
A Christmas Message Future of folk in safe hands
By Revd Richard Walker, Chair of Churches Together. “This has been an arduous year for our nation, with the recent flooding, political turbulence and uncertainty. To use a symbol familiar to our lives alongside the sea, we need an anchor to hold us in place amidst the chaos of these times. “Christmas is when the churches in our town hold Carol services and present the good news that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to live in our flesh and offer his peace, forgiveness and new hope for those that turn to him for help. “At these services, one of
the words you will hear to describe Jesus is ‘Immanuel’. It means, ‘God-with-us’. Godwith-us is the anchor that we need when things are tough. Why not let Jesus Christ be

ROCKED-UP versions of traditional shanties and original maritime-flavoured tunes will be played by the Salts at the Evron Centre in Filey on 30 November. The trio have reinvented shanties with drums, guitar, double bass, banjo and m a n d o l i n , incorporating reggae and calypso into their eclectic folk-rock mix. Promoter Chris Lee says: “Folk purists may well The Salts be horrified as

the beards and Arran sweaters are cast aside. But the future of folk is in safe hands as the Salts pay homage to Filey's proud seafaring and fishing heritage with a dazzling display of musical virtuosity. “They were voted best new
band at last year's Great British Folk Festival and share the main stage this year with folk royalty Steeleye Span”. Tickets cost £10 from Filey Travel on 512229 and the post office. The gig will follow a Wold Top beer tasting session.

Book published by performance poet A PERFORMANCE poet from Scarborough has published an account of his poetic journey through life. Graham Rhodes, 70, has been performing his unique brand of spoken word for over half a century. Shunning the normal world of poetry, he has performed to biker gangs, to the staff of Selfridges, at London’s Talk
of the Town and at folk clubs, rock venues, bars, cafes, art centres, political rallies and festivals. He has supported famous poets, rock bands, folk singers, indie bands and singersongwriters. His book is called Poetry! 52 Years of Performance Poetry, subtitled John Otway Ate my Curry. In it, he describes some of the many solo gigs he has
performed and the countless artists he has met and played with, including the Police and Suzi Quatro. He tells the story of Krax, the Harrogate poetry band he formed in the 1970s with Leeds poet Dave Prucker; the rise and fall of Arkwright’s Ferret, the electric folkrock and poetry band voted London’s number-one folk act in 1981; and performing

The gig, promoted by Apollo Music, is due to start at 7pm.
at Fibbers and the Roman Baths in York. Now living in Scarborough, he performs in Leeds and other parts of the West Riding. The book contains illustrations of Graham’s and other people's poetry. It offers an insight into how and why he writes poetry and what motivates him. He describes the other aspects of his professional writing career,
as a script writer, as a writer in the computer games industry and as a novelist in the creation of his comedy history of York and his nine-book, fantasy history series featuring Agnes the Scarborough Witch. The book, published by Templar, can be bought on Amazon.

The sad decline of British stamp clubs by Dave Barry STAMP clubs such as Scarborough Philatelic Society struggle in this day and age. Members grow older and new ones are hard to come by; especially younger ones, with so much competition for their attention. When I was a lad, stamps exercised almost unlimited fascination. A foreign stamp was a connection with a distant, unknown part of the world, with people whose lives were radically different. I was, and remain, preoccupied with the invisible lines that connect
everyone on the planet. The postage stamp embodied this enduring obsession. In addition, stamps carried huge aesthetic value, via their shape, size and design. Some are triangular, some are relatively huge, most are imaginatively conceived miniature works of art. So it’s sad that stamp clubs are declining, in the UK at least. In other parts of the world, philately is growing. It is the fastest growing hobby in China, according to Stuart Hogg, who chairs the local club. Interest is climbing in the USA, Stuart
Members of Scarborough Philatelic Society at a library meeting (to order photos ring 353597)
adds. Stuart, who opens meetings by banging a gavel, started collecting as a boy, stopped when he married then resumed after about 30 years. He says: “When you look around [at fellow members], you wonder who will be here in 10 years. We have to find ways to encourage young people to collect stamps”. Stuart’s colleague Chris Phillips chips in: “We are planning a meeting aimed at young people. Last year, at the stamp fair, we had a children’s competition to design stamps.
At least two of the entrants still collect stamps”. Stuart adds: “Thematic collecting is the new thing”. For example, Stuart likes stamps with horses on and the club’s former press officer, Robin Stenhouse, has a thing about Captain Cook. Scarborough Philatelic Society often has guest speakers and meets at the library every month. Its next meetings are on 3 December and 7 January. Newcomers are guaranteed a friendly welcome.
Retired brickie finds new vocation QUESTIONS from grandchildren about a Scarborough man’s childhood and youth prompted him to record it all for posterity. Terry White was born in 1947 and has lived most of his life in the town. His book, The Lemon Tree, starts with his childhood the shops, the characters, the tradesmen, events of the year, school days. “We had no pocket money but the jobs and scams made a little money”, says Terry, who served an apprenticeship on a local building firm and spent his working life as a bricklayer. The book contains less about the work and more about the comical situations he experienced and the strange characters he met.
A section on Terry’s youth in the 60s covers the music, fashion, dance halls and clubs. He lived and worked in Gibraltar for 10 years, which Terry recalls in the book. “There are a few sad moments but laughter is never far away”, he says. “I changed all the names except for my family to spare embarrassment for anybody, but everything written is the truth. The book was released a few months ago and to my surprise is doing really well on the internet”. It has been published by David Fowler of Farthing Publishing, who published a book of Terry’s poems two years ago. The cover is illustrated by local artist Barrie Petterson. The Lemon Tree can be bought on Amazon for £10.99.

A SHORT film starring Game of Thrones actor Francis Magee and renowned Irish theatre actor Olwen Fouéré was shot in Scarborough in November. The Tide tells the story of the slow decline of an ageing trawler, exposing harsh realities and tragedy for a North Sea crew as they embark on one last voyage. The film’s writer Liam Thomas comes from a fishing family on the west coast of England. The story is based on one told by his younger brother. Neil worked as a fisherman for many years but the decline of the industry and the impact on his mental health led to him to take his life in 2010. Liam says: “My brother left a note and put himself into the sea. His body was recovered at dawn the following day by the skipper of one of the last working boats in the port. The

Tide is about place, identity and mental health within a community fighting for its very

existence, whose identity is unravelling. “Skipper is a genial modern-
day Ahab who has fished the North Sea all his life and is blindsided when an onboard
issue threatens his beloved trawler. His reaction pulls into sharp focus the reality of life
and friendship in a once-proud trawler town”.

It took him a while It took him a while,
The Magpies
To understand the world, To know where he was going. He took his time in growing up, And finding a place he could smile, Where he could unfurl, Then keep on growing, Because he knew he’d had enough. It took him a while, To see the light, But when he did, He finally smiled, And realised life will be alright. A vision of heaven, Is the future before him, After learning his lesson, He could finally move forward.

Bowling club celebrates one of its best seasons NUMEROUS trophies, shields and medals were handed out at Scalby and Newby Bowling Club’s annual lunch at the Park Manor Hotel in Scarborough. The club won the trophy for the evening league, which is played on Mondays and Wednesdays throughout the season. And it finished top of the first division of the veterans’ league and the second division of the independent league. The latter was won with a record score of 130 points, returning the club to the first division. The winners were declared team of the season. They lost only one game, at home to Beeford, but beat two division-one teams along the way. The Marisa trophy, for teams of three, was won by Stuart Stamford, David Bell and Kevin
Thompson. The open handicap was won by club president Richard Thompson. Dennis Roberts won the Gatenby trophy, for club members who play individually with two woods; the winner is the first to 21 points. The club was founded in 1930. Over the years, as the game’s popularity and the local population grew, membership rose to 250, with 100 on the waiting list. Since then, membership has fallen to about 60. “This is obviously age related, despite our efforts to encourage more members of working age and youngsters”, says Richard. “We continually hold three regular free playand-try mentoring sessions with woods provided”.
“As a club, it continues to promote itself under health and wellbeing, full age and social inclusion to alleviate loneliness with local community groups to simply get out, meet people, enjoy tea and biscuits and idle banter on the green”. The club offers day tickets for residents and holidaymakers and is a tourist attraction for visiting teams from around the country. It co-hosts Scarborough’s annual open tournament for competitors in the north. Needless to say, new members will be made welcome during next year’s season, from April to September.

AFTER days of torrential rain, most of South Cliff Golf Club was in no fit state for a few rounds. It was positively soggy and new lady captain Ann Wrigglesworth’s drive-in appeared doomed. However, following sterling work by head groundsman Paul Sleight and his team, seven clifftop holes were salvaged from the elements. In fact, the wind helped matters as it blows stronger on the clifftop and helps dry the ground. Ann and her fellow golfers decided to play the clifftop
holes twice, making the Greensome pairs competition over 14 holes. Unfortunately, besides drying the ground, the wind put paid to the gazebo which club captainelect Neil Wrigglesworth, Ann’s other half, had erected for the halfway break. Undaunted, Neil created a windbreak to serve soup and sandwiches. Alison Lockwood and Janet Cresswell were worthy winners, followed by Carol Hartley and Anna Mollon, with Sriwan Forest and Anita Arnold Forster in third place. Judy Locking and Gloria
Pickering picked up the prize for the best front seven with Julia Gibson and Ruth Smith having the best back seven. Lady captain Brenda Foreman presented Alison Lockwood with the trophy for ladies’ club champion. Afterwards, prizes were presented back in the clubhouse and the golfers had lunch prepared by the club’s new caterer, Belinda Leppington. They were joined by Kath Oates.

FROM THE SIDELINES
A review of the local Football scene....
BY S T EV E A DA MS O N
Grim run of defeats SCARBOROUGH Athletic boss John Deacey was facing mounting pressure after a dismal run of form, which included six successive defeats and exits from both the FA Trophy and Integro League Cup, and left Boro dropping towards the relegation zone. Amongst the defeats was a crushing 5-1 home loss to lower division Dunston in the League Cup, leaving the Boro boss facing a huge uphill struggle to turn the team’s fortunes round but following the 3-1 loss at Witton Albion, the club announced that John Deacey had left the club by mutual consent. Coming in to replace him is ex Boro player and Hyde United manager Darren Kelly.

FROM THE TOUCHLINE THE SENIORS
Having beaten Durham City 1413 on the road on the last game of last month, Scarborough took on Malton and Norton at Silver Royd in the first round of the Yorkshire shield on the 2nd of November. Coach Simon Smith was forced to field a side decimated by injury and unavailability and consequently the-men-from-the Gannock won a one-sided affair 30-10 and progressed to the next round of the competition. Next up was another local derby this time against highflying Driffield also at Silver Royd. The visitors got off to a flying start and lead 13-7 at half-time; however the second half was a different kettle of fish altogether. Early in the half young Aussie prop forward Bernie Blackall sustained a horrifying leg injury breaking his lower leg in five places and dislocating his ankle. It took about 45 minutes before he could be taken by ambulance to Scarborough Hospital after which the play on the paddock was a bit tentative; however Scarborough took the bit between their teeth and blew the visitors away playing positive rugby to run out 3613 winners to once again top North One East. With Blackall in a wheelchair and prop Nino Cutino sidelined by injury SCARBOROUGH were much depleted in the front row department and struggled in their following two games, losing 14-9 on the road at Morley and 21-12 against Pocklington at home; the first time the Seasiders had lost consecutive games since Simon Smith had taken charge in 2017. The latter defeat saw them drop from first to third place in North One East.
THE VALKRYIES
Scarborough’s ladies team the Valkryies have made a great start to their season and carried on in November with the 7422 defeat of Northallerton at Silver Royd on the 17th running

THE YOUNG ‘UNS
The club’s mini/micro/shrimps and junior sections are in full swing and last weekend saw the club’s under-14 boys (Skarthi’s Men) travel to take on Thirsk. The Scarborough lads trailed 5-10 at the break but came storming back in the second half to win 36-26.
THE NEW ‘UNS
After introducing new Aussie prop Benny Blackall last month, as mentioned in my report on the visit of Driffield (above), he was badly injured but is making progress but it’s very early days yet to discuss his prognosis. Also new at Silver Royd is Kiwi centre Komiti ‘Via’ Tuilagi; Via has been playing his rugby in Canberra Australia but had always wanted to visit the UK. Scarborough official Nick Ingham has been working abroad and met an acquaintance of Via and the guys were put in touch and the big guy made his debut from the bench for the last twenty minutes of the game with Pocklington. Playing at centre he had little time to make his mark but managed to score a late try in the 12-21 defeat.

THE RUN UP TO CHRISTMAS
November 2019 has been the least successful of Coach Simo Smith’s reign with only one win in four; however injury has played a massive part in that. I don’t know when prop Nino Cutino will be fit again or even if Paul Taylor may be called upon to play in the present injury emergency but I’m sure the side will be looking to bounce back on the 7th December when they play Malton at the Gannock and Bradford & Bingley at Silver Royd on the 14th the last game before Christmas and the New Year. Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year!
