Mencap minibus is a fitting tribute to Gary A CUSTOMISED minibus has been bought for Scarborough Mencap in memory of one of its biggest supporters. Businessman Gary Ledden’s death in April 2018 came as a huge shock to his family, friends and employees, many of whom have contributed to the cost of the minibus. OurCo, which runs a charity shop in Northway, wanted to raise money in Gary’s memory and asked Gary’s family who the beneficiary should be. They nominated Mencap, one of Gary’s favourite charities, along with OurCo. Gary and his family, through their business Nippy Taxis, have supported Mencap and its clients for over 50 years, initially providing home-to-

At the time of Gary’s death, Mencap had just launched a £25,000 fundraising campaign
to buy a wheelchairaccessible minibus. It was needed to take clients on trips out, and for the trips to be inclusive of all members. OurCo set the fundraising ball rolling. Its initial donation was matched by Nippy and followed by donations from Gary’s family and many of his friends and business associates. Within a short period of time, enough money had been raised to buy a minibus, which was formally presented at Brookleigh. The handover ceremony was attended by members of Gary’s family, OurCo volunteers, Mencap representatives and the mayor, Cllr Joe Plant. CONTINUED ON PAGE 2

COVER STORY CONTINUED... OurCo helps those in need in the Scarborough area by giving its monthly profits from the sale of items in the shop to causes identified by local voluntary and charitable organisations. It is a local charity for local people. When OurCo had to move from Falsgrave, Gary offered the old Evening News office in the town centre, rent free. Later, he offered them further retail units in Northway, again rent free, where it operates from today. One is used as a shop, the other for storage. “Gary was very genuine in his offers to help the charity”, said a spokesperson for the family. “He would be so proud and honoured that so many people have given so generously in his

Same-day discharge for ankle-op patient A SCALBY woman got a new ankle in less time than some people wait to be seen in A&E. Angela Crowther has become the first patient in the local NHS trust - and probably the whole of Yorkshire - to get a new ankle and be discharged on the same day. On the day of her operation, Angela was admitted at 7.30am and discharged less than 12 hours later, at 6pm. It is the first time in the trust’s history that a patient has been discharged on the same day as having an ankle-replacement operation. Until now, recipients of new hip and knee joints have been routinely treated as daypatients. Ankle replacements are becoming more common as medical technology advances. About 1,300 ankles have now been replaced by the NHS in the UK. “Ankles are more intricate than knees and hips”, says Angela, who was on a waiting list for six and a half months. “They take twice as long”. Nevertheless, her operation was completed in under two hours, by orthopaedic surgeon
Angela Crowther was in hospital for less than 12 hours

Adnan Faraj. Angela, who had already had her right hip replaced, woke up on Kent ward at Bridlington Hospital with a knee-to-toe cast protecting her new joint. Several factors played a part in her quick discharge. Her blood pressure was ok and she could move about on a walking frame and Rolator. Critically, she had somebody at home who could look after her - her husband
David. The couple live in a bungalow in Ridge Gardens. Angela was told not to stand on her new ankle for six weeks. Three weeks later, the cast was removed and replaced with a surgical boot, allowing physiotherapy to begin. Angela’s trouble with her ankle began when she fell and broke it, 10 years ago. Osteoarthritis set in and the joint gradually became more and more painful.
Angela, who will be 74 on 27 June, praised the treatment she had. “All the staff were very kind and reassuring. The anaesthetist made a lot of fun and asked me what kind of music would I like on the headphones during the operation. I said, ‘How about Frank Sinatra?’ and I heard five lovely serenades”.
Man dies in A165 crash A MAN died when two cars crashed on the A165 on 19 May. The collision was between the Cayton Bay roundabout and the Lebberston turn-off. It involved a red Suzuki Ignis, travelling south towards Bridlington, and a white Kia Sportage, which was towing a

caravan while travelling north towards Scarborough. The Ignis driver, a man aged 62, died at the scene. A female passenger aged 55 was taken to Hull Hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries. They were from Nottinghamshire.
The driver of the Kia, a man from Whitby aged 59, was uninjured. His female passenger was taken to Scarborough Hospital with chest injuries. Police are appealing for witnesses. They would particularly like to hear from
anyone who may have captured dash-cam footage of the incident. Ring 101 and select option 1, quoting reference 12190089893. Or email MCIT@ northyorkshire.pnn.police.uk.

Town criers honour one of their own OYEZ, oyez, oyez! Three North Yorkshire town criers were part of a celebration in honour of one of their own at a Scarborough nursing home. The town criers of Scarborough, Filey and Helmsley joined a party for former Scarborough town crier Alan Booth. Alan, who lives at Saint Cecilia’s nursing home in Queen Margaret’s Road, was town crier for 31 years; a role that took him all over the world. He was national champion in 1988, 1989 and 1994 and European champion from 1990-92. During the celebration, the three town criers each made a proclamation in Alan’s honour, with best wishes from other town criers, including one in Australia. Alan was presented with a framed photo of himself in action as town crier during an Armed Forces Day. Alan is an MBE.
At the celebration, he was joined by Scarborough town crier David Birdsall and his consort Veronica Dickinson, Filey town crier David Bull, Helmsley and Yorkshire Society town crier David Hinde and friends including former councillors Tom and Ros Fox, former civic officer Irene Webster and representatives of Scarborough Council and Scarborough Hospitality Association. Nursing home owner Mike Padgham said: “Alan is a lovely man and we are delighted that his fellow town criers and friends were able to join us for a get-together. “Alan is well known as a former Scarborough town crier and it is lovely that all the great work he did in that role was celebrated in this way”.

Mischief and cheekiness help Irene reach 100 STILL full of beans at 100. That’s retired welder Irene Hebdon of Osgodby, who says the secret to longevity is simple: “be happy and try to be good”. But a good dose of mischief and cheekiness also seems to have helped her live to such a ripe old age. Irene seems to spend much of her time chuckling at life’s vagaries. Her hearing may be poor but she can walk down a few steps and into her garden unassisted, to pose for a photo with her daughter and son-in-law, Pauline and Robin Newman. The lively centenarian was born in Ely, Cambridgeshire, on 28 April 1919. Irene, who went to school in Bentham, near Lancaster, had two sisters, Kitty and Marjorie, and two brothers, Leslie and Kenneth. When her parents bought the Rose Bower garage in Easingwold, the family moved into Yorkshire. She didn’t
have far to look for a husband. Stanley Hebdon lived over the road. Pauline says: “One day, he was carrying a ladder and Irene was cycling along the road and nearly knocked him over. He asked his father who the mad girl was and Stanley was told to be careful as her parents were very strict, although they weren’t. Stanley replied that he would marry her when she was 21 and he did”. During the war, the couple lived in Cirencester, where he was a car mechanic and she worked in an engineering works. She learnt how to read blueprints and set up her own jobs. After the war, Stanley got a job at Tesseyman’s Garage on the South Cliff in Scarborough. Irene worked for a dentist until Pauline was born. When Pauline was at school, at the convent in Queen Street, her mum worked at Premier Engineering and later at Trimet, becoming a spot

welder. She lost an index finger when operating a machine and retired when Stanley passed away in 1992. Pauline says: “She has always been a happy, cheeky, mischievous person and has always put other people first.
For example, at work she would give the young lads her money and end up having to walk home”. Irene celebrated her 100th birthday at the Mayfield Hotel in Seamer with 41 relatives and friends.
Parking woes and more congestion in Crossgates IT’S all change for drivers at Seamer railway station, in Crossgates. The train company, TransPennine Express, has just scrapped free parking in the station carpark and the county council is reducing the free parking on the approach road. The area has grown more popular and congested, annoying residents. To avoid paying parking fees in Scarborough, more and more people have been driving to Crossgates to catch a train. Carpark charges were introduced in mid-May: £2.50 a day, £11 a week, £37.50 a month
and £290 a year. The penalty for non-payment is £80. As a result, more drivers are parking in the surrounding housing estates. To alleviate congestion, the county council is proposing “an experimental traffic regulation order” for Station Road. To deter all-day parking and parking over several days by rail users from Monday to Saturday, a single yellow line prohibiting parking between 10am and noon each day would be introduced along most of the residential side of Station Road. This would affect residents as well as rail users.
Parking bays would be created with painted lines along the other side of the road, between Cayton Low Road and the station. These would be available to anyone all day every day without charge. At the bottom of the road,
double yellow lines would give vehicles space to turn around and allow waiting for a short time, with the aim of deterring vehicles from waiting or parking over driveways. Double yellow lines would be painted at the entrance to
The carpark at Seamer railway station, in Crossgates
the road and around bends to improve visibility and safety for drivers and pedestrians. Residents are being consulted about the proposals. A public meeting at Crossgates community centre on 21 May was attended by about 50
residents. The meeting was convened and addressed by Cty Cllr David Jeffels and, from the county council’s highways department, Andrew Stanton, Helen Watson and Lindsey Walters.

Police chase on the A64 ‘Nasty-looking knife’ handed in POLICE in Scarborough are appealing for witnesses and dash-cam footage following a pursuit along the A64 between Scarborough and Scampston. They particularly want to trace the occupants of a black Land Rover Discovery and a white Ford Focus who were travelling into Sherburn. At around 7.45pm on Sunday 26 May, several people were assaulted during a disturbance at the Crow’s Nest caravan park near Gristhope. Two men sustained cuts, one to his head, the other to his leg. A man and a woman fled the scene in a grey Vauxhall Astra in the direction of Scarborough. A short time later, officers spotted the car on the A64 at Staxton, where it failed to stop for them. Further attempts were made to stop the Astra near Potter
Brompton using a stinger device but it continued along the A64 driving fast. “The stinger didn't stop the car”, a police spokesperson said. “They don't always work due to the dynamic nature of their deployment”. Near West Heslerton, the vehicle stopped and reversed into a police car before continuing towards Scampston, where it stopped again. A man aged 29 ran into nearby fields where he was arrested following a short chase. The woman, 31, stayed in the vehicle and was arrested. The man, 29, from Wetherby, has been charged with assault, dangerous driving, failing to stop for police and driving
while disqualified and without insurance. He appeared at York magistrates court on Tuesday. The woman, from Leeds, has been charged with four counts of assault by beating and using threatening and abusive words or behaviour. She is due to appear before Scarborough magistrates on 24 June. Several motorists had to take evasive action to avoid the Astra as it sped along the A64. Police are appealing to those motorists and to anyone who witnessed the car travelling along the A64 to contact them, particularly the occupants of the Land Rover and Ford Focus and anyone who has dash-cam footage of the Astra.

Council launches eco-champions scheme A NEW scheme will reward young people in the borough of Scarborough for environmental work. Scarborough Council’s ecochampions scheme, aimed at schools, colleges, youth organisations and other groups, will run from September to June every year. It will encourage them to focus on sustainability issues such as recycling, littering and cutting back on single-use plastics. The scheme has three selfselecting levels of attainment to work towards, from taking the first steps towards environmental improvement to becoming an eco champion. Every January, participants
will report to the council on what they have done towards achieving their level and what they intend to do during the following months. Every summer, they will be invited to debate green issues at an eco-champions committee meeting at the town hall. A trophy will be presented to the best overall organisation or group. The scheme was launched at the town hall, where the winners of a council competition, to design a logo to highlight the problem of singleuse plastics, were presented with awards by borough mayor Joe Plant. The winner of the upper age
group was Cihan Eroglu of Scalby School. The winner of the lower age group was Michelle Wade of Seamer and Irton Primary School. Special recognition awards were presented to James Breckon of Oakridge School in Hinderwell for his ‘Be fantastic and recycle your plastic’ slogan and to Jackson Prosser of Scalby School for his seagull logo. This will be used in the council’s existing campaign to help people understand the differences between gull species. More information about the scheme is available at www. ecochampions.co.uk.
A “nasty-looking knife” has been handed in to the Rising Sun martial-arts school in Scarborough. School founder Darrel Haigh called in the police when a parent of one of his pupils took the blade into the club. The parent had managed to talk someone into handing it over, said Mr Haigh, who described it as a “nasty-looking knife”. He said he has always felt strongly about people carrying weapons on the street and has arranged weapons-awareness sessions, self-defence classes and knife-defence courses,
to promote awareness of the dangers that are out there from day to day. The club is based at St Saviour’s Church hall on the corner of

£93,000 grant for old parcels office A £93,000 grant will complete the transformation of the old parcels office at Scarborough railway station. Scarborough Studios Limited (SSL) has been awarded the funding from the Railway Heritage Trust, Arts Council England and the Community Led Local Development.
NEWS IN BRIEF
A PLANT sale will be held at Burniston & Cloughton village hall on Saturday 1 June. It will have a large selection of bedding plants and surplus perennials, cakes by Ginilla and hand-crafted garden accessories made by students at the Construction Skills Village. Some of the proceeds will go to Newby & Scalby Library and the Stepney Hill garden project supporting veterans of the First Light Trust. MIDSUMMER’S Day, the middle of summer, falls on 24 June, after the longest day, aka the summer solstice. The longest day in the northern hemisphere varies from 20-
The grant will be used to install solar panels, a grey-water plumbing system, air-source heating, lighting and toilets. It is the second phase of work which has restored the derelict grade-II structure to English Heritage specifications. Since the renovation, artists have used the space for studios
and exhibitions. It has hosted a Camra beer festival, Coastival arts festival and a wedding. “However, its use has been severely restricted by the lack of heating, light and toilets”, says Jo Davis of SSL. Work will commence later in the year.
24 June. This year it is on 21 June. This discrepancy is said to have been caused by the variants of the Julian calendar and the tropical year, further confused by the Gregorian calendar. Midsummer’s Eve is a time associated with witches, magic, fairies and dancing, when many bonfires were lit all over the country. This was in praise of the sun, for the days were getting shorter and the sun appeared to be getting weaker, so people would light fires to try and strengthen the sun.
Tomczak, who chairs the Friends, said the fair featured over 20 gift and craft stalls, a fairground organ, a cemetery walk and a pebble-painting competition for children.
A spring fair organised by the Friends of Dean Road and Manor Road Cemetery raised £1,010. The figure includes £89.31 raised by Bernards undertakers with a raffle. The star prize was a chauffeur driven limousine trip to the Wrea Head in Scalby for afternoon tea for two. Linda

New group will distribute waste food A NEW community-led initiative will tackle the issue of waste food. Scarborough Free Fridge will enable residents and businesses to share surplus food. Anyone who wants to will be able to help themselves to quality food that would otherwise be wasted. Food waste is a big issue in the UK. The average household throws away £700 worth of food a year, while four million people are living in food poverty in the UK. Most food waste is avoidable and could have been eaten had it been better managed. Steve Parker, a member of the steering group, said: “This will help people connect to their communities, access nutritious food and save money whilst reducing waste. Annually, £3 billion is wasted by the food sector. Wasted food increases the cost of all food and is a big source of environmental damage. Food loss and waste globally produces more than four times as much greenhouse gas emissions as aviation every year”, Mr Parker explained.
“Yet despite growing awareness of food waste impacts, there are few easy ways for people or businesses to get food near its sell-by date to others, particularly those who would benefit most. That is what a free fridge service does. “It is a simple way of sharing good food that would otherwise go to waste”. A team of volunteers will get free training in food hygiene and safety. Fresh and shortdated food, which would otherwise be sent to landfill because of legislation, will be collected from supermarkets, manufacturers, cafes and hotels. It will be made available for free to anyone who uses the
free fridge. “We will ask only for a voluntary contribution towards our running costs”, Mr Parker says. “Obviously this will depend on the generosity of the local community in providing their time and effort to make this happen. We need local businesses that want to reduce their food waste and people who want to help this project”. Since starting about six months ago, Malton Fridge has distributed five tonnes of food that would otherwise have been wasted. To join the team, get in touch via its Facebook page or email Scarboroughfreefridge@gmail. com.

More roadworks chaos coming up Fewer trees and more traffic lights Words and diagram by Dave Barry ROADWORKS at several major road junctions in a busy area of Scarborough will cause traffic chaos over the next two years. Most of the sites are in Scalby Road, at the junctions with Stepney Road, Manor Road, Stepney Drive, Old Scalby Road and Woodlands Drive. Another is at the roundabout connecting Stepney Road, Stepney Drive and Sandybed Lane, by the Sixth Form College. Work is due to start on the first of these, at the Scalby Road / Manor Road roundabout, at an unspecified date in June. All the work is scheduled to be complete by March 2021. New traffic lights will be installed at Scalby Road’s junctions with Stepney Drive and Falsgrave Road / Stepney Road. Seven trees in Falsgrave Road and Stepney Road will be removed. Roads and pavements will be reshaped and pedestrian islands and crossing points moved or installed. Compared to the other sites, the work at Old Scalby Road and Woodlands Drive will be relatively minor, involving the reshaping of pedestrian islands.
The authority concedes that “some road closures will be inevitable”, although temporary traffic lights will control the traffic flow as much as possible. It says: “These modifications are essential to support the proposed growth of the town over the period of [Scarborough Council’s] local plan up to 2032. In their current layout, all the junctions were expected to reach capacity during that time. “This is a major investment in the future of Scarborough. The modifications are crucial to the aspirations for the growth of the town. The upgrades will bring improvements to access facilities for people with disabilities”. The upgrades will cost £3,875,000. Most of this, £3.5m,
will be paid by the York, North Yorkshire and East Riding Enterprise Partnership. Set up by the government, this partnership of people from local authorities and businesses uses local knowledge to secure government investment in projects and schemes that will make a difference to the economy. The rest of the funding will come from the county and borough councils, who are contributing £150,000 each, and developer contributions. If and when the projected cost increases, it would be capped at £4,075,000. The £200,000 shortfall would be covered equally by the borough and county councils. Any further rise would be paid by the county council.

Busy sky for Yorkshire’s largest Armed Forces Day SCARBOROUGH will host Yorkshire’s largest Armed Forces Day event on 29 June. The sky above the south bay will be graced by the sights and sounds of a variety of aircraft representing generations old and new, including a Typhoon, Spitfire, Tucano and Calidus Autogyro. The Tucano display team, from 72 Squadron based at RAF Linton on Ouse, will make their last visit to Scarborough before the Tucano is phased out of service in 2020, following three decades in RAF service. It will be the only public display by the aircraft in Yorkshire this year. The pilot will be Flight Lieutenant Liam Matthews. An RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Spitfire from RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire is a regular visitor to Scarborough. Representing Yorkshire’s efforts during WW2, it is this year commemorating the 75th anniversary year of D-Day. It will be joined by the Eurofighter Typhoon FGR4 of 29 Squadron, also based at
Eurofighter Typhoon
RAF Coningsby, which will be flown by Flight Lieutenant Jim Peterson. In addition to the RAF displays, there will be an appearance by the Calidus Autogyro, half helicopter and half aeroplane. The unusual aircraft will be piloted by Peter Davies. Scarborough RNLI’s inshore and offshore lifeboats will mount a joint display. This was originally planned to involve the coastguard’s Sikorsky helicopter, which has stopped giving public displays. Scarborough Council’s Armed Forces Day project officer, Rowena Marsden, described the event as “one of the biggest
Calidus Autogyro
and most popular annual events on the Yorkshire coast. The breath-taking air displays are, for many spectators, the highlight of the day and this year’s line-up will be no exception. “More information about the exciting range of land-based displays, parades and activities that make up the event will be made available in the coming weeks”.
Killer jailed for eight years A WOMAN who killed her frail partner has been jailed for eight years. S h e i l a Lockridge Sheila Lockridge strangled Dianne Williamson at their home in Lodge Gardens, Gristhorpe. Lockridge, 66, was charged with murder but pleaded guilty to manslaughter and sentenced at Leeds crown court. The couple’s 30-year relationship had frayed and Lockridge had become aggressive towards Williamson, who was 70, in poor health and weighed 7.5 stones, the court
heard. Witnesses said in statements that Williamson suffered various bruises over the years. They suspected she was a victim of domestic violence. On one occasion, a witness overheard an argument between the couple in which Williamson pleaded with Lockridge: “Please don’t stab me. Please don’t kill me”. The witness rushed into the room to find Lockridge brandishing a kitchen knife and intervened. On 2 September 2018, Lockridge had spent the afternoon in a pub before going home at around 7pm. At 7.39pm, she dialled 999, asked for the police and said her partner was dead. The prosecution alleged that
she didn’t make the call until at least 14 minutes after she killed Williamson, after ringing other people about a dozen times. Lockridge told a police officer at the scene: “I strangled her. She’s dead”. The defendant was arrested and the case investigated by a police team which specialises in complex investigations for serious crimes such as murder, rape and serious robberies. During interviews, Lockridge claimed Williamson was violent towards her. She claimed she pinned her down to restrain her and she didn’t get up. The prosecution said Lockridge was the perpetrator of the domestic violence.
Free cash machines are disappearing
The flashpoints
FREE cash machines in the Scarborough and Filey area are disappearing and being replaced by dispensers which charge up to £2. Across the country, 1,250 automated teller machines, or ATMs, became fee-paying in March alone, according to the Consumers Association. But a phone app allows people to find nearby machines that will let them withdraw cash for free.
Link, which runs the UK’s largest ATM network, has 64,000 cash machines, 12,700 of which make a charge. But Link has released a free ATM-finder app which it says covers “virtually every cash machine in the UK”, including all the major banks. An interactive map marks the nearest cashpoints, with green dots for free ATMs and purple dots highlighting those which
charge a fee. If you click on a purple dot you'll be told how much the machine charges. According to the Consumers Association, most of the ATMs that have begun charging are operated by cashpoint firm Cardtronics, which has warned it may introduce charges for another 1,000 cash machines over the coming months.

YOUR LETTERS THANK YOU
Dear Editor PLEASE may I extend my grateful thanks to the residents of the newly extended Northstead ward for voting for me in the recent local elections. Special mention must be made to my nomination’s proposer and seconder, Bonnie Purchon MBE and her husband Brian, for their kind words and my other eight friends who kindly agreed to sign my nominations form as assentors. Thank you all. Scarborough Council has a new leader, four less councillors and a smaller cabinet structure and it will be interesting to see how the new format will bed down. I am looking forward to representing the ward and taking up constituents’ issues. I must also highlight and extend my utmost appreciation to former councillor Norman Murphy for all his advice and support. Cllr Guy Smith, Independent Scarborough
SAVE YOUR HIGHSTREET
Dear Editor AS A new business I understand that many of our customers will start having their shopping experience with us over the next few months. One of the most common comments I have received is ‘I didn’t know you were here, I never come into town because the shops are rubbish’. This got me to thinking about the struggle of our high streets. Looking at the problem I see no easy fix, there are fewer shops so footfall drops, the shops that are left reduce their stockholding or close and fewer and fewer people come. People comment that the bigger chains have destroyed the High street. I feel this is only true to a point. We need the larger stores who choose to locate in the High street. As a sole trader I can’t offer 20 jobs or the range of products they can. This helps attract people to the high street who then hopefully choose to visit the independent shops as well. Some people say ‘it is cheaper online’. If you shop around it can be cheaper, the home seller who does not pay rent or rates has a much lower overhead but will have to pay for postage. I pride myself on beating prices online and in the bigger chain stores on a lot of our
products, which means you can save money with us as well as helping to save your high street. Remember when you shop local the money stays local which helps your local economy. Many small businesses also offer a unique selling experience. The person serving you in a small business is more than likely the owner, who really cares about what they do. I will let you into a secret about small business owners. When you leave with your purchase they do a little dance. I own Kasper’s Kanine Treats in Bridlington. Come and shop with me and help me keep dancing. Iain Dunster
COUNCIL CHICKENS COME HOME TO ROOST
Dear Editor THE Conservatives got hammered in the borough elections on 2 May, losing 1,333 councillors and 44 councils including Scarborough. I am fed up of hearing them robotically blaming Brexit for their dismal performance instead of looking closer to home. Sadly, much of the mainstream media seems to have lazily followed this line of thought. These were local elections, focused primarily on local issues. To me, it seems pretty obvious that the reason for the Tories’ fall from grace falls to a great extent on the deeply unpopular decisions taken by Scarborough Council over the many years they were in control. The most ignominious being the decision to demolish the Futurist Theatre and award ‘preferred status’ to Flamingoland, which made everyone think it was a done deal. In my opinion, many local councillors’ chickens came home to roost on 4 May. Fred Johnson Moor Lane, Newby
HELP US FIGHT DEADLY MENINGITIS
Dear Editor MENINGITIS Now and the Swimming Teachers Association would like to invite parents and their children to take part in a new water-based challenge to help us fight deadly meningitis.
www.thescarboroughreview.com Splash Now can be held in your local pool during swimming lessons, in a paddling pool in your back garden, in the sea – anywhere, as long as it involves water. All we ask is that participants use the opportunity to raise some money for Meningitis Now and raise awareness about the signs and symptoms of the disease. We think this could be a really fun way to encourage babies, toddlers and older children to get involved in swimming or just to enjoy cooling down on a hot summer day as well as to help us to support families that have been impacted by meningitis. To find out more and to register for the event, visit our fundraising pages on the Meningitis Now website. Kat Hollywell Meningitis Now
2,982 NORTH YORKSHIRE CHILDREN ARE ‘IN NEED’
Dear Editor ACROSS North Yorkshire, amazing people are helping to transform young lives by taking action with the Children’s Society. This Volunteers Week (1-7 June) we would like to thank each and every one. Right now, 2,982 children living in North Yorkshire are classed as children ‘in need’ and sadly this number continues to increase steadily. We help thousands of children and young people in many ways; including those affected by poverty, mental-health issues and victims of criminal or sexual exploitation. In the past year, nearly 10,000 volunteers gave us their time, contributing an incredible 478,000 hours. There are a variety of ways to help, from supporting young people directly in our services, volunteering in our shops, organising events, taking part in challenges, campaigning, donating or increasing local awareness of our work. If you are inspired to get involved, contact us on 0300 303 7000 or supportercare@ childrenssocety.org.uk. We’d love to talk to you. The need is great and every hour volunteered, every campaign action taken, every donation made, makes a real difference. Nick Roseveare CEO, The Children’s Society Margery Street, London

Good listeners walk and cycle around the country TWO Samaritans who are walking and cycling to the charity’s branches all over the country visited Scarborough within days of each other. Steve Smith is cycling from his Sussex home to Shetland, visiting every branch in between. David Matthews is visiting all 201 branches, starting and finishing in Doncaster. Both visitors did a listening shift at the Scarborough branch, answering calls, emails and texts from a wide range of callers, before continuing their mission. Although they aren’t officially competing with each other, they are keeping tabs on each other’s progress and want to raise the most sponsorship. A few days apart, their visits to Scarborough Samaritans in Trafalgar Street West were preceded by a visit to the Bridlington branch. After doing his shift, Steve was joined by a few of the charity’s
volunteers and supporters for a few miles en route to his next stop in Whitby. They accompanied Steve as far as Ravenscar, where they got their breath back in the village cafe. David, 58, is taking two years for his 6,000-mile walk around the UK and Ireland. Besides the ordinary branches, he hopes to link up with the Samaritans festival branch at one of the music events it will be attending in 2020. A vegan for 20 years, he aims to raise £100,000 in sponsorship and recruit 1,000 new volunteers. He was inspired to undertake the walk about five or six years ago by a Samaritan who travelled around on a motorbike with panniers and high-vis clothing. David’s next stop after Scarborough was Northallerton. The schedule for the walk can be found online at www. thelisteningwalk.co.uk where details of how to donate either
to the Samaritans or to the estimated £35,000 that the walk will cost can be found. The walk and bike ride are being supported by teams of volunteers. Various businesses and individuals have donated money and products. * The Samaritans can be contacted 24 hours a day, every day of the year by phone on 116123 (calls are free) and by email to jo@samaritans. org.

Eastfield cops keep an eye on vulnerable people POLICE officers and volunteers from Eastfield police station are leading an initiative to keep older residents in Eastfield, Seamer and Cayton safe. Operation Cracker will see officers and PCSOs working alongside teams of volunteers on 11 June. They will call on residents – young and old – in areas where there is a high proportion of older or vulnerable people. Older people will be offered crime prevention and welfare advice, while younger ones will be encouraged to keep
an eye out for their more vulnerable neighbours. Operation Cracker is a partnership initiative, drawing in support and expertise from several organisations including the Fire and Rescue Service, Scarborough and Ryedale Carers Resource, Coventry University, Beyond Housing, the county council’s 95 Alive road-safety partnership and NatWest Bank. Sergeant Harriet Williamson, of Filey and Eastfield neighbourhood policing team, said: "The hot weather can mean older people, or those
with limited mobility, may be vulnerable. During Operation Cracker we will visit areas where there is a higher population of older people and make sure they are equipped with the right support to help them stay safe. "We provide advice such as home security and how to keep your valuables safe when you’re out and about, as well as sign-posting to support from partner agencies and local groups that can provide support”.

Spa to be painted Green MOST of the UK’s 265 Green councillors are expected to attend the party’s national conference at Scarborough Spa from 7-10 June. They will include Scarborough’s two new Green councillors, Will Forbes and Neil Robinson. They will join the party’s co-leaders, Siân Berry and Jonathan Bartley, and its only MP, Caroline Lucas. The conference is to feature debates on climate street action, a new green deal and ocean pollution. Fringe sessions will discuss ways of combating populism, saving libraries, peace and security, zerocarbon buildings, communityled housing, monetary reform and green jobs. Training seminars will cover fundraising, campaign literature, electoral success analysis and case studies. Social activities will include a beach clean with Surfers against Sewage, walking tours of the town, sea swimming, yoga, an acousticfolk sing-around, pub-crawls, a quiz night and PechaKucha. The newly elected and re-
elected councillors will be among about 500 delegates. The conference’s local coordinator, former borough councillor Mark Vesey, said: “One of the most popular debates will probably be the one on ocean plastics and pollution, a topic close to the heart of many Scarborians, especially with the loss of blue-flag status for the south bay. “The Green Party wants to end the current political system that keeps hurting the environment and all of us who rely on it. Its policies are proposed and voted on by members, looking to secure the long-term future of the places and people they love. They believe it sets out a vision of a better world”. According to Wikipedia, the Green Party’s ideology combines environmentalism with leftwing economic policies, including well-funded, locally controlled public services within the confines of a steady state economy. It supports proportional representation and takes a progressive approach to social policies such as civil liberties, animal rights, LGBT

rights and drug-policy reform. The party believes strongly in nonviolence, basic income, a living wage and democratic participation. At the conference, local artist Gabrielle Naptali will create a big art installation that delegates will be able to walk through. It will be made of hundreds of discarded plastic buckets, spades and beach litter collected over the past year by volunteers, and finished with recycled foil flowers. Non-members are welcome.

Look out for itinerant sellers RESIDENTS and visitors to Scarborough are being warned against buying tools and generators from itinerant sellers using pressurised sales techniques.

as kitchen knives, tool sets and diesel power generators.

Chocolate and coffee combo for the lifeboat
A CHOCOLATE and coffee tasting evening will raise funds for the RNLI. It will be held at Amelia’s Chocolate in Aberdeen Walk, Scarborough, on 5 June, from 7-9pm. Chocolate and coffee lovers will be invited to taste five singleorigin chocolates which will be matched with five coffees from the Baytown Coffee Company in Whitby. Baytown started in 2013 out of the love of great coffee. The company says: “Baytown stands for simplicity and its ethos is based around making great coffee that does great things. When we’re not roasting coffees, you can catch us organising beach cleans, doing charity projects with local schools and working with farmers at origin”. Tickets cost £10 and can be bought online at Eventbrite. Half the proceeds will go to the RNLI to help them continue to save lives at sea. * Over £2,000 was raised for Scarborough RNLI at a fashion
show at the Crown Spa Hotel. About 100 guests watched a dozen models parade down a catwalk before tucking into dinner. It was the first fashion show to be organised by Scarborough Ladies Lifeboat Guild and the first to be held at the hotel, said Gladys Freeman, who chairs the guild. The exact amount raised isn’t yet known and will be announced later. Rosie Jackson of Cosmetique in Scarborough provided the models and clothing. She was joined by Jane Wheldon from Get Ahead Hats in Snainton. * Static cyclists raised about £1,167 for Scarborough RNLI during the Tour de Yorkshire. Despite going nowhere fast on exercise bikes, they pedalled 501 km or 313 miles, outside the lifeboat station. * A small fishing boat’s luck ran out when out when its engine failed near Filey Brigg. The crew had neither radio nor GPS and Filey lifeboat was busy towing a boat to Bridlington.
The coastguard despatched Scarborough’s Shannon lifeboat to its rescue, towing the eight-metre craft to safety. Scarborough RNLI’s lifeboat operations manager Andy Volans said: “The RNLI strongly advises all vessels to carry a radio and GPS as a bare minimum”.

Building firm helps sea cadets THE company which has built and demolished big buildings in Scarborough is helping sea cadets to modernise their base. Willmott Dixon demolished the Futurist Theatre and built Scarborough Athletic FC’s new ground, Scarborough UTC and Coventry University’s local campus. Now the firm is helping to restore a disused community building next to the cadets’ main unit in East Sandgate. Fay Roberts, who chairs the
cadets committee, approached the firm for help. Willmott Dixon’s construction manager Russ Parks explains: “When I met Fay, she asked for us to assist in fitting out a new disabled toilet. However, after she showed me around and explained what was needed, especially with materials, I told her we could do much more to create a better place for the cadets, working with our supply chain partners from the Futurist”.

The company provided key equipment like showers, toilets, basins, fire extinguishers and other materials like paint and skirting boards, which volunteers are using for the property’s revamp. Russ continues: “Big thanks to the following local companies for their kind donations: Kyle May Brickwork, Howard Civil Engineering, SPI Piling, JML Building Services, Braithwaite Excavations and Davison Fencing”.

Annual walk raises £8,000 for local charities THOUSANDS of pounds was raised for local charities on the 42nd Crown Tavern walk. “We had 141 walkers and it looks like we’ve raised over £8,000”, said Tracey Shaw, one of the organisers. “It was a record year”. The first to finish were Mike Anderson and David Elsworth, who took four hours and seven minutes to walk 22 miles from Hawsker to the Crown Tavern pub in Scalby Road, Scarborough. Close behind were Sarah Flinton (4 12), Colin Ireland (4 18) and Clare Felgate (4 20). Clare, of Woodall Avenue, exclaimed: “I feel like I’m dying! I started crying when I saw the bairn with a well-done
sign”. A second, eight-mile walk began at Hayburn Wyke. Among those to complete it were Ziek Faulkner, a support worker at Willows Lull, and his boss Joanne Parrott. They were pushing William, one of the children who go to the charity to give respite to parents. About 30 staff parents and children from Willows Lull did the walk. “It was the first time we’ve taken part”, Joanne said. The amount raised was totted up at a paying-in night at the pub on 21 May. A presentation night on 22 June will see trophies handed out to walkers and cheques to beneficiaries. Tracey says: “It will be an
emotional night for Jane [Moment], Ray [Springall] and myself, with it being our last one”. The trio have played key roles in organising the walk for the last quarter of a century - or 42 years in Ray’s case. They have passed the baton on to the town’s two Rotary clubs, who will run the walk from 2020 onwards. “100% of what the walkers raise is donated to the beneficiaries,” Tracey explains. “Over the 40 years we have raised about £223,000. The beneficiaries are all local charities for disabled and disadvantaged children and young people”. They are 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.

Mental health week event Broad diversity of hobbies and interests on display targets body image
Drew Jones, Christine Mackay and Laura Manton of Scarborough Survivors in the Brunswick A ‘body-positive zone’ appeared in a Scarborough shopping centre as part of mental health awareness week. It was designed to promote body positivity, reduce stigma and encourage people to talk about mental health. The theme of the awareness week was body image - how we think and feel about our bodies. Last year the Mental Health Foundation (MHF) found that 30% of adults have felt so stressed by the way their bodies look that they were overwhelmed or unable to cope. Over the week, a team of stylists, beauty and mentalhealth professionals helped shoppers to be bold, confident, happy and beautiful; to explore their own individual style and become body positive. The participants included two
local mental-health charities, Scarborough Survivors and Scarborough, Whitby & Ryedale Mind. Christine Mackay of Survivors commented: “As a mental health charity established 25 years ago, we continue to address the stigma linked to mental illness. We welcome every opportunity to have conversations about mental health”. Sophie Hall of Mind added: “This year’s theme of body image is incredibly important. How we think and feel about our body shape and size, individual features or physical differences has a huge effect on mental wellbeing. Having negative body image can impact confidence and self esteem as well as increase risk of mental-health problems such as depression and anxiety”.
A photo set-up allowed visitors to take selfies and add their voice to the MHF’s Be Body Kind initiative, designed to combat stigma and promote positivity. They were encouraged to post on social media a picture of a time or place when they felt comfortable in their own skin, using the hashtags #BeBodyKind and # M e n t a l H e a l t h Aw a r e n e s s Week. The event was in the Brunswick Pavilion, whose manager, Sue Anderson-Brown, said: “We are mindful that the retail setting can be very much body and clothing-focused. Having both our customers and the team that work within the centre be more thoughtful of body image and its impact on mental health has to have a positive impact”.
A WIDE and diverse range of hobbies and interests was on display when the University of the Third Age showcased its work. The event, at Westborough Church in Scarborough, was "a great success”, said organiser Malcolm Maloney. “It was buzzing with a large number of visitors as well as members enjoying the demonstrations of arts and crafts, some lively performances and the information stands on the many and varied U3A interest groups”, Malcolm said. “A friendly atmosphere was created by people sharing their interests”. The interest groups covered art, craft, discussion, games of skill, science, history, lifestyle, hobbies, languages, literature, music, performance, physical activities and social activities. Malcolm said 98 visitors had enquired about becoming U3A members. Several vintage cars were parked in prominent positions outside the church. They included the first sports car produced by Morris, an MG M-type Midget, made in 1929. It belonged to Eric Morgan of Ravenscar, who has been a U3A member for about four years. He is in two groups, one for cars and one for singers. The 50-voice U3A Singers choir, run by Hugh Penny, meets at Raincliffe Drive Methodist church hall from 1-3pm every Wednesday from September to March. One of the U3A’s oldest members is Georgette Fox, 94, who is in the embroidery
and stained-glass groups. Georgette, who has lived in Scarborough since 1951, teaches art at her home and shows films about artists to her students. She has been a U3A volunteer for 19 years. The U3A is an international movement whose aims are the education and stimulation of mainly retired people - those
in their third 'age' of life. In Scarborough, the U3A has about 500 members in 80 learning groups. To find out more, visit the website www.scarboroughu3a. co.uk or email membership secretary Sue Petyt on sue@ suepetyt.me.uk or ring her on 864111.

The Colossus of St Nicholas Cliff Local artist Dav White talks about the fascinating world of history, art and mythology FOR over 150 years the Grand Hotel has been one of Scarborough’s most iconic buildings. It is difficult to imagine what the ordinary townsfolk thought of it when its mortar was still fresh, standing proud of a bay filled with the humble fishermen’s houses of the old town. Opulent, bombastic and extravagant, it was built in the high Victorian baroque style, known for its theatrical ostentations. Scarborough and District Civic Society, in its booklet The Streets of Scarborough, describes the Grand as: “Unclassifiable but unmistakably and thoroughly English”. This titan was bigger than the colossus of Rhodes and once the largest hotel in Europe. The exterior is garnished with over 100 over-sized scrolled modillions and plump stone festoon garlands made especially for this architectural feast. The carved figures of Hercules, draped in a lion skin, and the four fates that appear in the myth of his trials appear along the top levels of the building as caryatid, meaning a sculpted female figure serving as an architectural support. The carved figures of putti also feature along the roof tops. Putti are cherubs representing inspiration and the omnipresence of God. The Grand was constructed in a V shape to honour Queen Victoria. Her statue in the townhall gardens, installed 30 years after the Grand was built, was placed along the central axis of the V shape that aligns with north and south and with the Grand’s great staircase inside. The staircase is based on the one in Berlin Opera House. Architect Cuthbert Brodrick, known for his attention to detail, fashioned the width of the staircase to allow two fully crinolined ladies and
their escorts to pass on the stairs without upstaging each other. The space on the landing was contrived so that a lady could observe those in the hall below and on the staircase, to choose her moment to make an entrance. Brodrick’s other notable buildings include the town hall and city museum in Leeds, known for their gigantism. The purpose of architectural gigantism is to inspire the pedestrian, to make you look up, to uplift you, to encourage you to dream of what is possible in the presence of such buildings. The statues of Hercules at the top of the Grand are looking down at you, over the cornicing. In his booklet A Brief History of the Grand Hotel, Bryan Perrett remarked that it was celebrated “to some for its sheer naked arrogance” and “was an immense architectural extravaganza on the scale of Mad King Ludwig of Bavaria’s Neuschwanstein castle”. He was referring to the Grand’s Wagnerian theatrical pretence. Churchill stayed at the hotel a few times during Conservative party conferences. If he was, say, the Wagnerian hero Siegfried, then the Valkyrie would have to be the SAS, who trained at the Grand after the seizure of the Iranian embassy in 1980s. Ludwig, a devoted patron of Wagner, bankrupted his country by creating theatrical fairy-tale castles based on Germanic myth. His beautiful buildings were follies and deceptions. Behind the fake medieval vaulting and fairy grottos were steel girders and the nuts and bolts of contemporary construction methods. Neuschwanstein castle inspired the Disney Corporation when building the Sleeping Beauty castle that features in Disney parks around the world. The Grand was built at a time

of restructure in Scarborough. The dynamics of the town’s main approaches and thoroughfares were changing. The old approach to the town via Castle Road through the Auborough gate had become redundant. The new hotels and grand stucco terraces built on the South Cliff were aimed at attracting wealthy visitors and the Esplanade would bring them into town via the Spa bridge. Visitors could marvel at the the Grand as they entered the town towards Newborough gate; a new fairy-tale folly replacing a 12th century bar that had stood for nearly 500 years. The new gate was a tourist attraction. Its theatrical parapets, castellations, arrow slits and gothic archways would welcome visitors to our historical town. After passing through it, they could walk up Queen Street to the new stucco terraces on Castle Road, Blenheim Terrace and New Queen Street, to stroll along the north-bay prom or up to St Mary’s Church and the castle. This would spare them the sight of the old-town slums, whose residents had not

NOW that summer is definitely here, it’s time to get out the sunblocker and walking boots and head to the coast. It’s also the season to do a bit of time travelling. The wonderful thing about the geology of the coast
is its simplicity. Generally speaking the oldest rocks are at the bottom and the youngest are on top – that makes sense. Here in Yorkshire the rocks are all tipped slightly towards the south; this means that the
oldest rocks are exposed in the north and the youngest in the south. So if you set off to walk from Saltburn to Bridlington you are walking through more than 130 million years of earth’s history.
yet been relocated to Eastfield, Edge Hill and Barrowcliff. The Spa bridge was armed with a toll gate to prevent natives from crossing over to the South Cliff. As Hunter S Thompson might have said: “They had the momentum; they were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. So now, you can go up on a steep hill, say where Birdcage Walk meets the Esplanade and look north across the south bay, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark on the high Victorian terraces — that place where the beautiful wave of commerce finally broke, and rolled back”. The fairytale Newborough bar would soon be sacrificed to commerce when the town opted for a system of trams which wouldn’t fit under its gothic arch. To get an idea of how the bar appeared, you have only to look at the former gaol on Dean Road and the Towers building at Mulgrave Place. Both feature the same theatrical medieval features of turrets, arrow slits and castellations. The old prison also features the During this long period the earth went through extraordinary changes and saw the evolution of extraordinary life forms – and all this is captured in the rocks of the coast. In the earliest times, the Early Jurasssic, this area was under the sea. And in that sea were ammonites, belemnites and giant reptiles – ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs. Their preserved remains and the fact that they are available to find all along the coast is one of the great gifts the region has

to offer. In the Middle Jurassic period sea levels dropped and the area was a coastal plain full of plant life and inhabited by dinosaurs. The Yorkshire coast is world famous for its footprints and plant fossils, all from this period. Then, in the Late Jurassic, sea levels rose again giving a coral sea with reefs, ammonites and bivalves.

fossils. From Saltwick to Filey you will also see plant fossils and dinosaur footprints; and on the long stretch of hills running from Oliver’s Mount inland to Sutton Bank you will find coral reefs and more ammonites. So, not only is this a fine place to do some time travelling, you will be going through 130 million of the most fascinating years in the earth’s history.

SCARBOROUGH TALES
Covering Scarborough, Filey & Hunmanby
By Joe Coates
In my later teenage years I was a big fan of Simon and Garfunkel. I had all their albums and loved their music. One of my favourite songs was “Scarborough Fair”. Little did I know that more than fifty years later I would be living in Scarborough, and writing about them in the Scarborough Review!
Are You Going To Scarborough Fair?
GRANDSON Freddie and cousin Zinzi were at school. Grandpa decided to take a walk on his own, to St. Mary’s church, near the castle. It was a beautiful day. Grandpa gazed around. There was a fantastic sense of history in this place. A white flag with a red English Heritage emblem was blowing in the wind on the castle wall. The view to the south was amazing: South Bay on to Cornelian Bay, Caton Bay, Filey Brigg, and as far as Flamborough Head. Stunning! Beautiful bays with rocky cliffs and a quiet tide today, right up to the shore! Grandpa’s thoughts were suddenly interrupted. “Excuse me sir!” The speaker was a young man, a visitor from America. “Excuse me sir. Could you direct me to where
I can find Scarborough Fair, please?” Grandpa couldn’t resist it. “Are you going to Scarborough Fair?” The young man gave a little smile and replied, “Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.” Grandpa chuckled. “Remember me to one who lives there” and the visitor said, “She once was a true love of mine.” Both of them were beaming now and it seemed a good idea to get a cup of tea at St. Mary’s and have a good chat. The young man was a student. Grandpa began to tell the student visitor what he knew about Scarborough Fair. “Actually, there is no Scarborough Fair now. At least nothing like the Scarborough Fair you are seeking. That is part of Scarborough’s history” “So how did Scarborough Fair start, sir?” “Well, in 1252, King Henry granted permission for Scarborough to build a harbour, and later permission was given for Scarborough to have a Fair. So, every year, in the second half of August, around the harbour there would be a gathering of merchants,
tradespeople, entertainers, food vendors, all in a market style event: Scarborough Fair.” “What about these lasses I’ve heard of? Following the shoals of herring down the coast.” “Yes! These lasses, mainly from Scotland, became a big feature of Scarborough Fair. In August the harvest of herring was phenomenal and the “herring girls” or “fisher lasses” worked long backbreaking hours gutting and packing the fish. They were very skilled, using a gipping knife, and quick. One fish per second! Incredible! In fact they became a tourist attraction and much photographed by the public. You’ve never seen fingers move so fast! As you said, when the herring moved down the coast, the lasses followed them.” “So why did it stop sir?” “Simply, the herring fish reduced in numbers. And Scarborough was changing. Along came the railway and masses of visitors. The harbour continued to be developed. And there’s a road, the Foreshore with cars and buses. And very many shops, amusements, coffee shops, fish and chips, sea food…… “At least we have the Paul Simon song, Are you going to Scarborough Fair?” said the student. Grandpa’s eyebrows quivered. He had to say something. “Maybe you didn’t know! It wasn’t Paul Simon’s song. Scarborough Fair is a traditional folk song, sung for more than 600 years. Actually a great version of the song was recorded in 1965 by a legendary folk singer, Martin Carthy, who now lives just a few miles up the coast. Martin, actually, introduced Paul to
the song. Paul Simon’s version is great, but it wasn’t his song. It’s been a lot of singers’ song for a long long time. I think it belongs to Scarborough now. It’s our song!” The sun was moving to the west, though still quite high in the sky. As the huge doors of St. Mary’s began to be closed, the student said his goodbyes. “Have a good day!” said Grandpa in his best American accent, as they shook hands. Grandpa headed for home. He’d had a nice afternoon. Grandpa found himself singing along. Wonder if you can guess the song he was singing! That’s right! ”Are you going to Scarborough Fair?” ……...

THIS June 10th-16th is Carers Week 2019, an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring. As well as acknowledging the difficulties unpaid carers may face, it also helps people who may not think of themselves as carers to identify as such. And this year, Carers Week will help to bring carers together to get connected. So what is a ‘carer’? Carers are defined by Carers Week as: “someone who provides unpaid care and support to a family member or friend who has a disability, mental or physical illness, substance misuse issue, or who needs extra help as they grow older”. This could be anything from providing the person in need with emotional support to administering medicine; financial support to physical help; and more. Millions of people throughout the UK fit this description and don’t realise – whether they’re caring for their partner, relative, friend or neighbour. And it’s important

Curious Roots
Muck & Magic
BY HEATHER ELVIDGE
BY SHEILA JOHNSON
HE muck and magic garden is now revealing its full summer glory with pots, boxes and borders full of colour and greenhouses bursting at the seams. It’s been a trying few weeks weather wise for gardeners with rocketing temperatures during the day but very sharp frosts well into the middle of May - something we are always on guard for but which sometimes catches us out! There are lots of jobs to be done in the garden this month. Summer bedding can go out along with hanging baskets and boxes. Keep watering daily even when we have had a summer shower and nourish your plants with tomato feed once a week to keep them going throughout the summer. If your plants start to get a bit leggy just pinch out the tips to help your plants become more bushy. Weeds will be growing away quickly now so keep the hoe going in the borders and in the veg garden. This is a job best done when the sun is shining as the weeds will shrivel very quickly in the heat. It’s nearly time to cut down the old daffodil stems, maybe in the middle of the month, and hardy geraniums planted out in the border can be cut back if they are getting out of hand. They will respond to a good prune at this time of the year, sometimes known as the Chelsea Chop, and will be flowering again in no time
An Old English Rose - don’t forget to dead head your roses for extra bloom time.
at all. It’s also time to prune plums and cherries if you need to. Stone fruit are always pruned at this time of the year as they may succumb to diseases if they are pruned in the winter. In the greenhouse the plants are growing very rapidly and so are the greenfly and whitefly! In the muck and magic garden we are trialling plant invigorator which serves a dual purpose of controlling glasshouse pests but also provides micro nutrients to get the plants growing strongly and therefore more able to cope with pests and diseases. It’s early days yet but all the indications are very positive. Don’t forget to dead head roses to keep them blooming as long as possible. Muck and Magic Garden Club will be holding their next meeting on Monday 10th June at Ebenezer Church Hall, Columbus Ravine in
Scarborough. The meeting begins at 7pm and the speaker for the evening will be Barbara Jackman who is volunteer coordinator at Helmsley Walled Garden. Barbara will be speaking about the history of the garden and the work taking place there. All welcome. Finally, fresh from their success at Harrogate Spring Flower Show, Yorkshire Pelargonium and Geranium Society will be holding their own annual show at Hunmanby Community Centre on Sunday June 16th. Doors open to the public at 12.30pm. For more details of any of these events or if you have anygardening questions you would like answering please e mail us at muckandmagic@ hotmail.com Enjoy the sunshine and happy gardening!
A cup of confidence WWW.TERRYANNE.COM
I AM currently celebrating 21 years as a hypnotherapist and laughter practitioner helping people live their lives how they choose. Many issues are presented to me when a client
comes and one thing that is realised time and time again is lack of confidence. In fact wherever I go I meet people who have little confidence in certain situations.
BY TERRY ANNE
One might be confident in one area of their life and yet not have the same feelings of confidence in other situations. We all have all the resources we need and its a matter of tapping into them and transferring them to different situations. By doing this we can be confident in all areas, be resilient when things don't go according to plan and allow ourselves to be less stressed and worry less. Confidence is a great resource, here are some suggestions to fill your cup with confidence. Reflect on self limiting beliefs and push through them. In other words get out of your
JUNE is a month of roses, especially wild roses with their delicate pink or white petals. Of foxgloves that welcome bees into their bells, lured by the “pad print” inside. Of verges dressed with drifts of cow parsley, dotted with red campion, buttercups, and oxeye daisies. We hope to see red admirals, the pretty silver Y moths that fly by day, and the painted lady butterflies that sometimes appear in huge numbers. Yet few butterflies are about at present because most garden species are between broods. It’s the best time to be an egg or a chrysalis — in June Atlantic winds roll in, loaded with rainclouds. Hopefully, the European monsoon, also known as the return of the westerlies, will have blown over by the summer solstice. On solstice day, June 21, the setting sun reaches its northern limit on the horizon. It hangs around for a few days before heading south again, and June 24, Midsummer Day, marks the end of the period when the sun seems to stand still. The early church chose the 24th as the birthday of St John the Baptist, hoping to rival the ancient solstice fire customs held in honour of the sun god. Even so, old habits endured. Midsummer bonfires still blazed in the Yorkshire Wolds, Northumberland, and the Pennines as the eighteenth century ended. Today, Stonehenge and other stone circles attract devotees to hail the solstice sun. But perhaps they should come back on Midsummer Eve. That’s when all standing stones come alive; they chat, totter around, or visit the nearest stream for a drink. At the Rollright Stones, the Whispering Knights will even tell your future — if you can catch what they’re saying.
Festivals like Midsummer can attract malicious entities, so it’s wise to make a protective garland. The plants — yarrow, corn marigold, plantain, ivy, elder, and St John’s wort — must be gathered at dawn on Midsummer Eve. While June is the month with the most hours of daylight, it’s also the month when the night sky is never truly dark. Into this magical twilight sails the queen of the night, mysterious Luna whose cycle counts our days and divides our years. Ancient peoples knew that the sun gives life, but the moon, they believed, regulated life. Its phases — becoming larger, smaller, then vanishing for three nights — affected the tides, the coming of rain, women’s cycles, and the growth of plants. They venerated moon deities, which might be male or female. Ox-eye daisies used to be plants of the moon goddess; their golden centres suggest the moon caught by the last rays of the sun. The plant’s other names are moon daisy, moonflower, moon’s eye, or moon penny. In Yorkshire, the daisy is simply “moons”. Watching the crescent moon reflected in a pail of water was a love divination carried out at Midsummer. As the surface rippled, the number of moons seen gave the years before a wedding. However, the moon didn’t concern itself solely with romance. It also governed more down-to-earth matters, such as fingernails. These were cut under a waning moon, so re-growth would be slow. But hair, to encourage healthy growth, should only be snipped when the moon was growing. People believed that a waxing moon encouraged growth and increase, while under a waning moon living
things slowed down, dried out or withered away. Luna was strongest in its full phase, when staring too long or sleeping in its light could cause a person to lose their wits. This powerful moonlight could charge an amulet, or give magical power to water. If you’re thinking, nobody would believe that now, a German spa currently offers bottles of full moon water said to support “body, soul, and spirit”. The full moon saw all that was done, and sometimes it intervened. It watched as a cruel parent forced two Scandinavian children, Hjuki and Bil, to fetch water from a remote well. Seeing their struggle the moon scooped them up, along with their bucket: Hjuki and Bill — Jack and Jill — can still be seen on the moon’s surface. Or those marks could be a hare-in-themoon, an old man carrying a bundle of firewood, or even a three-legged toad. Next month brings the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing, by Apollo 11. Since then our ancient companion has had half a century of peace — but not for much longer. Several countries, and private space companies, have their eyes on the moon. Luna was important to us long before men walked on its surface. It was treat with respect: on first seeing the new crescent it was necessary to tip one’s hat or nod, although nobody would laugh if a person bowed or curtseyed. Which they did. This month’s new moon falls on June 3. Depending on the weather and your view of the horizon, the first sighting may be two or three days after that. So be ready to greet the shining crescent, and give thanks that you’re still here on earth.

When we know what we do have the ability to do we can progress more positively towards achieving our goals.
the sooner we take action the sooner your confidence will grow.
Talk to yourself positively using affirmations, positive statements in the present tense. This helps the subconscious to believe what you maybe didn't first believe. Start simple with I am OK, I am calm, I can. Focus on your strengths to build up your I can muscle.
Face your fears to know your abilities more. A fear is purely a thought and when it is faced becomes an action that will empower you. Ever worried about something and noticed how the fear grows. Then once you took action and faced the worry head on, it was nowhere near as bad as you had imagined? The longer we worry the more the fear builds,

Biffy Clyro’s first gig of year is at Open Air Theatre Biffy Clyro (photo by Austin Hargrave)
BIFFY CLYRO have only six gigs this year - and the first is in Scarborough. The Scottish rock trio are playing at the Open Air Theatre on 14 June. Their only other gigs of the year are at festivals in the Isle of Wight, Germany (Deichbrand), France (Lollapalooza), Ireland (Indiependence) and Switzerland.
Biffy headlined Reading and Leeds festivals last summer and have played to massive sold-out crowds all over the world in the last decade. Biffy recently released their soundtrack for the Jamie Adams-directed movie Balance, Not Symmetry, which debuts at Edinburgh international film festival on 23 June. The story of Biffy Clyro is as
romantic as it is archetypal. Three childhood friends from Ayrshire formed a band, recorded three albums of abrasive youthful exuberance and finally cracked the big time when their fourth, 2007’s Puzzle, smashed into the top 10. Platinum-selling Only Revolutions was followed by Opposites in 2013 and 2016’s
gold-selling Ellipsis, which both topped the album charts. Biffy Clyro have won four NME awards and four Kerrang awards and been nominated for the best-British-group award at the Brits twice. Tickets cost up to £50 plus £3.25 if you buy them at the box office. The Open Air Theatre gig is promoted by Cuffe and Taylor,
along with Hacienda Classical (8 Jun), Cliff Richard (26 Jun), West End Proms (5 Jul), Years & Years (18 Jul), Madness (19 Jul), Lewis Capaldi (20 Jul and 30 Aug), Jess Glynne (21 Jul), Kylie Minogue (1 Aug) and Queen Machine Symphonic featuring Kerry Ellis (31 Aug).

ELEVEN artists in the Scarborough area are throwing open their studio doors to the public for the annual North Yorkshire Open Studios. NYOS enables artists and makers to meet, promote and sell their work directly to the public, over the first two weekends in June, from 10am5pm on all four days. For visitors and art buyers, NYOS is a unique opportunity to meet artists, to gain an insight into how their work is produced, to find out what inspires them and to buy highquality art and craft. NYOS is run by a steering group of North Yorkshire artists chaired by one of the local ones, Michael Atkin. Across the county, 101 artists are taking part. The first four artists in the following list are in Scarborough: Rob Moore (Alma Studios, 4 Alma Square, closed 1 June) makes paintings, drawings and fine prints. His abstracted paintings have their roots in our surroundings - the beautiful but sometimes threatened landscape. He says: “Although artists like to sell work, open

studios is about much more than that and I am just pleased to meet interested people who enjoy looking at and engaging with art”. Tina Mammoser (9 Royal Avenue) brings geology and astronomy to her artwork – capturing the light and visual patterns of coastal geological processes. Half artist, half scientist, this AmericanBritish artist identifies strongly with the English tradition of seascapes while retaining a mid-western-US eye for flat perspective and open spaces. Kane Cunningham (Old Parcels Office, Railway Station) is best known for buying a house on the edge of a cliff to create a site-specific artwork and installation. His new body of work is primarily pleinair painting in watercolour, coupled with large studio paintings exploring the picturesque as a contemporary subject matter. Katie Braida (53 Whin Bank) makes sculptural vessels and forms. The surfaces are decorated using colours and patterns with reference to the natural and man-made patterns and marks found in the local
environment. She uses handbuilding techniques, firing the work several times to build up layers of colour and pattern. Michael Atkin (Byways, Low Street, Scalby) is an artist and printmaker who creates limited edition etchings, lino prints, fine-art books and wood engravings. His images are figurative, narrative and located in the Yorkshire countryside. His compositions are etched with nitric acid onto copper plates or cut into linoblocks or end-grain boxwood as engravings. Russell Lumb (Joby Cottage, West Lane, Snainton) makes semi-abstract landscapes, life drawings and acrylic portraits, which often provide the basis for narrative paintings and drypoint printmaking. The subjects take on new roles as literary, musical or imagined characters. Two artists, Shirley Vauvelle
fabrics. Her work is inspired by gardens, antique botanical books and artefacts in historic houses. Corinne exhibits widely throughout the UK. Three members of the Venus family are taking part in NYOS. Sarah and her brother Simon can be visited at Whin Brow Cottage in Hood Lane, Cloughton. Sarah's daughter Maddy is at Low Farm, Crosscliffe, Langdale End. Sarah Venus graduated from Goldsmith’s Art School with a BA hons in fine art/textiles. As a freelance illustrator, her clients included Vogue, Pentagram, Wolfe Ollens and the Daily Express. Sarah collaborated with Malcolm Gluck and Antony Worrall Thompson on a wine and food book. In the mid80s, she designed costumes for a BBC drama. Simon Venus is a kinetic artist who lives and works in London. His works are

and Corinne Young, are exhibiting work at Lebberston Hall in Manor View Road, Lebberston. Their work has featured in Country Living magazine. Shirley Vauvelle’s hand-built earthenware and stoneware ceramic components are assembled with driftwood and vintage finds to produce quirky sculptures and wall pieces. Shirley paints in acrylic and mixed media, working from sketches made on travels, days exploring the Wolds and her garden. Many of her pieces have been featured in interior and craft magazines in the UK and USA. Corinne Young is a textile artist who creates embroidered 3D artwork with hand-made linen paper and vintage
mechanical sculptures which create an engaging, often humorous, interactive dialogue with the viewer. He grew up surrounded by rich artistic and visual references. He has a keen interest in science, nature, biology and anatomy. Maddy Venus works in textiles, printmaking, drawing and mixed-media sculpture. She uses her practice as a vehicle for expressing ideas surrounding multiple personalities, identity and the self within modern culture. The recurrence of the body is evident throughout her practice, both adorning and depicting abstract interpretations of it.

FLYING START FOR CHURCH'S FUNDRAISING ARTS FESTIVAL A NINE-DAY arts festival at St Mark’s Church in Newby got off to a flying start. The festival, which ended this week, opened with an exhibition preview which raised over £700 for the church’s annex appeal. The cash register kerchinged to the tune of £650 from the sale of exhibits plus £85 in donations on the opening night alone. The preview was opened by the outgoing mayor, Cllr Joe Plant, and attended by county councillor Andy Backhouse and all nine newly-elected or re-elected borough councillors for the three wards on the church’s patch. They were Eric Broadbent, Guy Smith and John Atkinson of Northstead; Bill Chatt, Phil Kershaw and Peter Popple of Woodlands; and Subash Sharma, Eileen Murphy and Neil Heritage of Newby. Cllr Kershaw’s wife Judith bought four prints donated by artist Bernard Dixon. The retired design engineer described his Scarborough scenes as linescapes with
secondary colours, based on photos. The exhibition featured a diversity of art, including paintings, drawings, photography and 3D work such as ceramics, glassware and textiles. As well as the exhibition, the arts festival featured Steve Brookes on piano, the Staxton Singers, a screening of Christopher Robin starring Ewan McGregor, Scalby School musicians, a literary event with published artists and poets, Scarborough Community Choir, singing vicar Rev Mike Leigh and friends and a thanksgiving praise service. The preview was attended by photographer Peter Caton, who gave a talk about his work during the festival; and Michael Atkin, who chairs the annual North Yorkshire Open Studios on 1, 2, 8 and 9 June (see page 26). It was the latest in a series of fundraising events to raise £250,000 to build an annex by 2022, said spokesman Trevor King.

Entertaining EXHIBITION ON children and TOWN’S D-DAY ROLE THE role Scarborough played in D-Day is celebrated in a 75thanniversary exhibition at the Maritime Heritage Centre until 13 June. There were positive sides to D-Day as the end of the war appeared to be within sight and it was widely assumed that the German threat to the Yorkshire coast had passed. Some anti-invasion defences were removed, holidaymakers were allowed back on the beaches and a few smaller hotels and boarding houses were de-requisitioned. But the pressures imposed by Operation Overlord made it difficult for people to make travel plans. The exhibition looks at the town’s industrial contribution to the war effort. Bespoke crates and containers for the military were manufactured. The number of contracts allowed greater collaboration
and sub-contracting between local firms. Britain’s war effort was dependent on the safe movement of essential supplies and munitions. Scarborough enjoyed an expansion of war-related jobs in metalwork and light engineering. Local machinetooling work expanded in the run-up to D-Day and firms were pressed into mass-producing components for the Allies’ portable Mulberry harbours and Bailey bridges. The Trinity Chair Works mass-produced wooden crosses for the US army. A valuable intelligence contribution to the Allied preparations for the D-Day landings was made by Y Station at Irton Moor, now GCHQ. It provided intercepts on enemy naval and U-boat threats to allied landings and on enemy mine-laying.
adults in Ayton
EVENTS for children and adults are coming up at the Derwent Valley Bridge Community Library in Ayton. Space Chase, from 11.30am to 4pm on 9 June, aims to get local children in the mood for the library’s summer reading challenge. It is a treasure hunt designed for children, accompanied by parents or carers. They will walk around the village to find intergalactic clues and end up back at the library, where refreshments will be served. The last walk will start at 2.30pm. The cost is £3 per family. “These walks have been popular so we’re hoping for good weather and lots of space chasers”, says promoter Pauline Bedford. Author Andrew Hurley will talk about his second novel on
13 June, at 7pm. Devil’s Day, published in 2017, is set in a small village on the edge of the moors in Lancashire, where he lives. A large part of the book is about story telling and the history of a valley. “Andrew has championed local libraries so it is fitting that he comes to one that has been saved by volunteers”, Pauline points out. The talk is part of Read Regional 2019, showcasing talented northern writers. Tickets cost £3. The library’s last speaker, Chris Hansell, enthralled his audience with a talk on the flora and fauna of Fylingdales moor. “His familiarity and knowledge of the area shone through with the slides he showed”, Pauline says.

Celebrating sucess at Slimming World
JENNIFER Kelly, from Cayton’s Slimming World group, is celebrating a fantastic loss of four stone – and all before her 70th birthday. After struggling with comfort eating while caring for her husband, and dealing with his death in 2015, Jennifer was informed of a local Slimming World group – and decided to give it a go. She found that it was working for her after just two weeks, and once she hit her interim goal of losing a stone, Jennifer went for the big one: a total four stone loss before her 70th birthday. If that wasn’t enough of a challenge, Jennifer also pledged to take part in a tandem sky dive to help fund a defibrillator for her local sports club. Not only did she achieve this, but Jennifer also found herself four stone lighter – two weeks before her birthday. “It was lovely to be able to
dress up and feel good for the party my family had organised for me,” says Jennifer. “Finally my confidence is restored – my life is so much better thanks to Jacqui and all the members at Slimming World who give constant support.” To find out how you too can reach your target weight and transform your life, visit www. slimmingworld.co.uk and find a group near you.

THE FUTURE OF JAZZ IS IN GOOD HANDS
Bonsai
ONE of the key reasons for the success of Scarborough’s annual jazz festival since it began in 2003 has been the eclectic mixture of young talent alongside established names. This year’s festival, at the Spa from 20-22 September, is no exception, with a host of young musicians on the bill. Alto saxophonist Jasmine Whalley will be first on stage. Her quintet Jasmine combines the influences of jazz and hip-hop and was selected by musicians and promoters for
the Jazz North Introduces scheme. Bonsai, formerly known as Jam Experiment, was a highlight of the 2015 festival. Described as the shape of jazz to come in Jazzwise magazine last year, the London-based five-piece band includes the winner of the rising-star accolade in the 2017 British Jazz awards, trombonist Rory Ingham. Several talented youngsters will appear alongside two mainstays of the UK jazz scene. Clark Tracey is one of the country’s top drummers. Over
many years he has fronted bands that play passionate and stimulating jazz and showcased emerging new talent. Three members of his new quintet are recent finalists in the BBC young jazz musician of the year competition. Pianist John Law is another major figure on the UK jazz scene. His latest project features well-known tunes from the worlds of jazz and pop. Re-Creations features Parliamentary Jazz awardwinning saxophonist Sam Crockatt and a new group of
young musicians. Alongside classic jazz standards, the quartet plays interesting arrangements of tunes by the Beatles, Sting, Radiohead, Adele, Daft Punk and others. The Eastern Area Schools Youth Jazz Orchestra will run Saturday morning workshops in the Spa Suncourt, tutored by saxophonist Robert Fowler and drummer Matt Skelton. They will then play a free concert in the Suncourt between the afternoon and evening sessions. Festival director Mike Gordon commented: “There’s some amazing young jazz talent in the UK today and we are proud to have promoted many young performers since the first event in 2003. They are the future of jazz and many who have played at the festival have gone on to great things at home and abroad. “So come and enjoy these exciting and varied bands. Who knows, you may be listening to a future Louis Armstrong or Miles Davis”. Sharing the bill are Alan Barnes +11, Alec Dankworth’s Spanish Accents, Dave Newton, the Freddie Gavita Quartet, Jeremy Sassoon’s Ray Charles Project,
Jasmine Whalley
Jim Mullen’s Volunteers, Kate Peters’ Big Band, Liane Carroll, New Jazz Extempore, Partisans, Sam Rapley’s Fabled, the Tony Kofi Quartet and Wild Card. Tickets cost £100 (£45 for
students) for the weekend and £50 (£21) per day. Add £2 if you go to the box office and £2.50 if you want your ticket posted. To book, ring 821888 or visit www. scarboroughjazzfestival.co.uk. Session tickets will go on sale on 1 July.

Perfect venue for model railway show A MODEL-RAILWAY show has been staged at the most appropriate venue possible: a railway station. For the first and last time, the annual show was staged in two of the three big rooms at the old parcels office at Scarborough station. Co-organiser Iain Hale said: “It is believed to be unique in that it was held on a Network Rail operational station”. The show featured 15 working layouts, all of a high standard. Each had its own theme ranging from Knottoscalia, depicting dragons guarding gold and jewels in a castle made of fabric, to a fantasy recreation of London underground, viewable on four sides. A popular exhibit was a recreation of the tramline which ran along the seafront, by members of the University of the Third Age (U3A). It has models of the buildings which stood there at the time. They include the housing for a cart
which fired rope-rockets over stricken ships (a forerunner of the lifeboat); the Olympia exhibition hall, opened in 1895 and burnt down in 1975; and two which still stand today - the cliff lift and the public toilets. Two excursion trains to Scarborough brought unexpected visitors to see the show as well as many local enthusiasts and families. Despite foul weather, the counters on the door clocked 683 visitors, of which 186 were children. The old parcels office is primarily an arts venue and the model-railway show was a one-off. “So the search is on for an alternative location”, said Iain, who organises the show with his friend Chris Martin. “We will keep readers up to date in good time for another blockbuster presentation”. Iain and Chris are entering this year’s Great Model Rail Challenge competition, to be
broadcast on Channel 5 later this year. * Another group of modelrailway enthusiasts,
Scarborough & District Railway Modellers, is taking part in a show at the Memorial Hall in Pickering on 17 and 18
August. The group isn’t having a show of its own this year. Website: www.sdrmweb.co.uk.
POEM CORNER BY BEN ROBINSON
Drought Peoples words cut deep into me, Forever Telling me how I’m meant to be, Like knives, each word with a sharper edge, You may put me down, In the history books, In years to come from now, You may draw my frown, As my only look, Yet that is all I allow. You may tell me I’m full of lies, And the truth will come out, When it’s really your reflection, You may tell me I cannot rise, In the worlds worst drought, Yet I’ll still get to my destination. You pretend it’s going your way, But inside, it’s in a disarray,
Co-organiser Iain Hale makes an adjustment to a display (to order photos ring 353597)
You need to remember, The drought will pass one day, And you’ll come out okay.

SMUGGLER’S TALE AT THE MARKET HALL
The play is set in the old town
The cast of The Curse of the Smuggler’s Run
Photos by John Pattison and Paul Beck SCARBOROUGH’S rich maritime past comes to life in a new action-adventure musical this summer. The Curse of the Smuggler’s Run will be performed by Beach Hut Theatre in the Market Hall from 10-17 July except the 14th, at 7pm. Written by John Pattison and Alison Watt, it's set in 1822, when smuggling was an everyday occurrence. Firebrand revenue man George 'Flogger' Ballard arrives to end the trade in contraband and events take a dangerous turn
for the people of the old town. With the threat of the noose or transportation never far away, local merchant and smuggler James Law finds himself the target of Ballard’s interference, while young Hetty Pashby finds herself becoming drawn into a world of adventure, treachery and whispers of buried gold. Blending historical fact and imaginative storytelling through music, song and adventure, the show celebrates the story of those who smuggled and those who tried to stop them. With laughs along the way, this fast-action tale is set in various
Smugglers come ashore in mist
locations around Scarborough, sharing local legends from the town’s colourful past. “And the beauty of performing in the fantastic Market Hall means the audience is at the heart of where the events took place nearly 200 years ago – separated by time, but not location”, Alison says. Tickets cost £10 per adult (£8 concessions) and can be bought online at www. beachhuttheatre.co.uk, on the door and in the hall at Deli Delicious, who will offer a smugglers-themed menu of food and drink during performances.

HUNDREDS OF STEAMPUNKS FLOOD FILEY ABOUT 700 steampunk aficionados brought a bit of extra life and colour to Filey. The Steampunk Filey Group’s third annual event drew fans of the genre from all over Yorkshire, if not further afield. Sporting a huge variety of costumes and accoutrements, the steampunks paraded around Filey, centring on the Crescent gardens and Evron Theatre. Paul Keeton’s Kawasaki 440cc motorbike was a work of art. “The headlight is a projection lamp from a French cinema and it has genuine acetylene carbide lamps, made for bicycles”, said Paul, who is from Doncaster. “They are from the early 1900s”. The bike took 18 months to build up, he added. Knaresborough man Steve Baxter borrowed his grandson’s airhorn and bought a damaged trumpet from TK Maxx to make the brassy-looking object hanging from his shoulder. Vases and a propagating tube from a microwave oven were also involved. The Cabinet of Curiosities, billed as an evening of frivolity, featured Alice’s Night Circus, Ellie Etoile’s Burlesque and Professor Elemental, one of the judges of a costume competition. The Lighthouse cafe hosted tea-duelling, a spectator sport
involving tea, biscuits and dunking. The steampunk weekend also featured tanks on the beach, a local-history talk on Dr Pritchard the poisoning adulterer, the Flying Squadron owl display, one-man band Old Time Rags, more music by Ants Trepreneur and a steampunk quiz. Several events were at pubs including Bonhommes, the Station, the Star and Cobblers. Steampunk is a subgenre of science fiction or science fantasy that incorporates technology and aesthetic designs inspired by 19thcentury industrial steampowered machinery. Next year’s steampunk weekend will be on 16 and 17 May. Website: www.steampunkfiley. com. * Race the Waves, at Bridlington Spa on 1 and 2 June, will incorporate a steampunk fair. Whitby’s annual steampunk weekend is on 27 and 28 July.

SONGS INSPIRED BY WANDERLUST
Amelia Coburn
UKULELE player Amelia Coburn is back at Mojos Music Cafe in Scarborough on 5 June, in between travels in France, Mexico and Russia. Mojos man Steve Dickinson says: “Amelia returns armed not only with her trademark exquisite interpretations of songs by artists as diverse as Kate Bush, Bowie and the Specials, but with a few new songs inspired by her wanderlust. “Mojo’s will be the first place to hear these undoubted future classics”. The support slot is filled by singer Andrew Johnson, singer with the Southmartins and the duo Cherry Head, Cherry
Heart. Steve says: “Andy has been known to knock out a soulful cover version or two but constantly writes original material that sits somewhere between Elliot Smith, Morrissey and the Coral. “He launched his most recent album, Out Before Nine, with an 8am stroll for the most hardcore of fans”. Other gigs at Mojos in June: Jez Ech (8), Acoustic Beatles (12), Billy Nielsen (15), Debbie Pullen (19), Touch of Blues Lite (22), the Storm Trees (26) and All Acoustically (29). They start at 4pm and run for an hour, with free entry.

PRINTS EXHIBITION OPENS AT ART GALLERY
Sarah Moore of Scarborough Art Gallery arranges the prints
Photo by Tony Bartholomew A NATIONALLY important collection of over 100 vibrant new prints has gone on show at Scarborough Art Gallery until 8 September. Printmakers Council (PC) features work by leading printmakers including prize-
winners from its biannual competition. The prints form the first of several donations by the PC to the gallery, aimed at creating an important national archive of fine-art printmaking in Scarborough. Launched in 1965, the PC is a national association
for the promotion and encouragement of printmaking in all its forms. One of its founding objectives was the creation of a comprehensive national print archive of contemporary printmaking. PC vice-chair Michael Kennedy explains: “A single deposition of prints was made to Scarborough in 1992 but after that the project lapsed until 2016. It seems that both the PC and the gallery had simply forgotten about the archive. Its existence came to light in 2015, the 50th anniversary of the PC, when work was being carried out on our extensive document archive in preparation for deposition at the V&A”.
COUNTRIES THEME FOR FLOWER FESTIVAL THE countries of the world was the theme of a flower festival at St Mary’s Church in Scarborough. Many of the displays symbolised the unity found in human expression, said the vicar, Rev Richard Walker. Others spoke of the diversity and uniqueness people can experience as they journey from place to place. “There is a richness in both our human and terrestrial heritage from being both one and many, the same and yet different”, Rev Walker said. Organised by the Friends of St Mary’s, the annual festival featured various national flags starting, in the vestibule, with Italy’s. An arrangement by Elizabeth Walker and Nanette
Grayson featured tomatoes on the vine, a basil plant in an Amaretti biscuit tin, spaghetti and other pasta, thyme, gypsophila and an empty bottle of Asti Spumante. In between a visit to Mexico’s Caribbean coast last year and a trip to the country’s Pacific coast in November, Alison Fenton went for chillis, cacti, aloe vera and images of Mayan ruins and xenotes. A mannequin wore a multicoloured poncho and a purple sombrero. A photo of Sean Connery in From Russia with Love, next to a golden gun, was one of many elements in Florence Showers’ display. The others included a miniature bottle of vodka, matryoshka dolls, a

ceramic ballerina and Fabergé eggs. The colours of June Wilkinson’s Egypt arrangement complemented the adjacent reredos, which came from Christ Church in Vernon Road (now Iceland). Bird-of-paradise flowers, a wooden pyramid, orange roses, bull rushes and a golden pharaoh’s head all figured. Numerous national motifs featured in other displays. New Zealand, by Janice Wood, had kiwi fruits, licorice, apples, manuka honey and a tea towel depicting native flowers. India, by Chris Belshaw, contained elephants, dried chillis, a coconut, sandals and a sari. Japan, by Brenda Thorpe, had a big golden hand-fan, a geisha woman, lilies, miniature iris and a book of haiku poetry. South Africa, by Jenny Peacock, had more coconuts, bananas, a traditional tribal mask and a monkey. Christine Jenkinson’s Belgium display inevitably featured chocolates and beer. The other arrangers were Sue Sewell, Barbara Elliott, Julie Cook, Judi Truffitt, Jean Glassell, Cynthia Waterhouse, Ros Aldcroft, Kate Ward, Chris Belshaw, Gillian Scruton, Anne Patterson, Eve Blackstone, Claire Fenwick and Jean O’Neill. * Friends events coming up at the church include a talk on the Wars of the Roses by Richard Atkinson (2.30pm 26 July) and a tea party (2pm 27 July). An autumn fair (12 Oct) and a Christmas fair (30 Nov) will be held at St Mary’s Parish House.

MUSICPORT CELEBRATES ITS 20TH ANNIVERSARY Words & photos by Dave Barry ONE of the country’s best indoor music festivals celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. Musicport began in 2000 as a one-off event to celebrate the millennium. Since then, it has drawn some of the finest musicians from around the world to the Yorkshire coast. From members of the Buena Vista Social Club and Hugh Masekela to Courtney Pine and Richard Hawley, it’s been a fascinating journey of discovery for audience and organisers alike, says director Jim McLaughlin. Top-quality music from lands far away and close to home have graced the five stages of this unique and friendly festival. Sharing this year’s bill at Whitby Pavilion, from 18-20 October, are Världens, a young multicultural 16-piece band from Sweden; Senegalese kora player Seckou Keita with Welsh harpist Catrin Finch; the thought-provoking spoken word of poet Lemn Sissay; and Irish legend Andy Irvine. Aziza Brahim’s sounds of the western Sahara will mingle with the reggae sounds and message of veterans Misty in Roots. The sunny sounds of Marseille’s Moussu T lei
Seckou Keita and Catrin Finch
Jovent will rub shoulders with the African sounds of Kenya’s Orchestre les Mangelepa; and the bagpipe-driven sounds of the Peatbog Faeries, from the Isle of Skye, will hobnob with hypnotic Communards singer Sarah Jane Morris and her celebration of the songs of John Martyn. Not to mention the Warsaw Village Band (Poland), Lo’Jo (France), Amira Medunjanin (Bosnia), Reem Kelani (Palestine), Riccardo Tessi (Italy), Anne Niepold (Germany) and, from the UK, the Orchestra That Fell to Earth, Banco de Gaia, Rafiki Jazz, Jasdeep Singh Degun, the Jim Moray Trio, Belinda O’Hooley, Martin Stephenson, Holy Moly and the Crackers, Katie Spencer, the Little Unsaid, Me and My Friends, Reg Meuross, the Hut People, Peace Artistes, the Joshua Burnell Band, Old Time Rags, Jay Johnson, Don’t Feed the Peacocks and Bob’s Blundabus. Weekend tickets cost £100 before and £125 after 30 July.

Pigs fly at castle kite festival
A PIG flew at Scarborough castle during its annual kite festival. The big porcine effigy, made of Ripstock nylon, was reminiscent of the Donald Trump baby balloon which protestors plan to fly over London when he visits on 3 June. Anne and Andy de Sadeleer, from Filey, said the pig had joined their growing collection of outsized kites at the end of last summer. It was tethered to their car in a gentle westerly breeze, along with a big blue crab. The weather was similar to last year, when low cloud, equally low temperatures and rain cast a pall on the proceedings. Nevertheless, the festival proved popular. Site manager Tim Richardson estimated that nearly a thousand people visited over the bank-holiday weekend.
Dozens of kites were either hand-held, tied to vehicles or pegged into the ground, which was a colourful carpet of buttercups, daisies, clover, bird’s-foot trefoil, cow parsley and speedwell. Expert kite flyers dazzled visitors with their skills as they created a spectacle on the headland. The festival featured gigantic kites, synchronised
demonstrations to music and kite-making workshops. * A team of archaeologists is excavating parts of the castle grounds until 9 June. Visitors can watch and even join in. For young archaeologists, there will be a hands-on experience uncovering exciting artefacts from times gone by.

INDEPENDENT BOOKSHOP BECOMES AN ART GALLERY AN independent Scarborough bookshop has turned into an art gallery. Most of the bookshelves have been removed from Bookshelf, at the lower end of Victoria Road, to create a large exhibition space. Renamed Gallery 6, after its street number, the venue is owned and run by Leslie Stones, who wants to encourage new local artists who are just embarking on their artistic lives. The setting is intentionally more informal than conventional galleries. After 19 years as a bookshop with occasional exhibitions, the venue has turned round and become a gallery with a few books lying around. “I’m still looking to buy goodquality books on art and local history”, Leslie says. The two specialisms led her to book an artist who does both
Leslie Stones and Dav White in the new gallery (to order photos ring 353597)
for the first exhibition, running until mid-July. Dav White has assembled a group of 25 paintings on the subject of Scarborough and its vicinities. They illustrate the ideas Dav has discussed in articles he has written for Scarborough Review. “All the paintings are based on old maps and my own observations”, Dav says.
“They picture both modern and ancient places together. Anyone with an interest in our town’s history will find something worth looking at”. Dav will be followed by Ruth Collett in August. Gallery 6 is open on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Opening hours will be posted on the gallery’s Facebook page.

High Street is lined with stalls and most of the participants wear fancy dress. The arrangements at a flower festival at St Laurence’s Church will depict Victorian times, featuring literature,
inventors and the life and times of the Victorian rich and poor. It begins with a preview at 7.30pm on 21 June. Admission costs £3 and includes a glass of wine and nibbles. Church organist Chris Wright will play piano. The festival can be visited between 10am and 5pm on fair day, after the morning service on Sunday and from 10am until 3pm on Monday.

THE 56-voice Harmonia Choir, from Malton, will give a concert at South Cliff Methodist Church on 15 June, at 7.30pm. Formed 10 years ago, the allfemale community choir performs a wide range of material from pop to gospel, choral to jazz and everything in between. The event is being organised by Scarborough Soroptimists, who are celebrating the 80th anniversary of their charter. At its recent AGM, Janine Maw and Helen Hyams were elected joint presidents, succeeding Carole Ireland. The Soroptimists are a friendly group who meet at 7pm on the
second Monday of every month at Montrosa in Esplanade Road. Women of all ages and backgrounds are welcome as new members. A quiz will be run at the next meeting, on 10 June. A light supper will be served at the concert. For tickets and further details, ring Angela Edwards on 353059 or email

Improvised musical at SJT AN improvised musical can be seen at the Stephen Joseph Theatre in Scarborough on 8 June. The Showstoppers takes audience suggestions and spins a comedy musical out of thin air - stories, characters, tunes, lyrics, dances, harmonies with unpredictable and often hilarious results. If you thought improv looked difficult before, try doing it in time, and tune, to music. With five West End seasons and a Radio 4 series to their name, the Showstoppers have taken their ingenious blend of comedy, musical theatre and spontaneity around the globe. The show won an Olivier
The Showstoppers
award in 2016 for its West End debut and is a staple of the Edinburgh festival fringe, where it had a sell-out run last year. It has won the Times award for best of the fringe and Mervyn
Stutter’s spirit-of-the-fringe award. It has been nominated for the Chortle award for best music or variety act and two MTM awards, for best production and the judges’ discretionary award.

L-R, Janine Maw, Carole Ireland and Helen Hyams
THREE young dancers from Filey competed in the European championships at a hotel in Stoke-on-Trent. They qualified by attending regional and national events throughout 2018 and 2019. The three-day event attracted hundreds of dancers from all over Europe. Golda Richardson, 14, and Tabitha Smart, 17, took second place in the teen-partner duos division, narrowly missing out on becoming European champions. Beckie Holmes, 24, managed sixth place in the highly
contested division 2 open. “All three danced their way to the finals, where Golda came fifth overall in division 3 teens and Tabby came eighth in division 4 teens”, says their teacher, Zoe Ruston of the Garage Dance Studio in Hunmanby and Filey. “All three performed wonderfully throughout the championships and are already back in training with their team-mates in preparation for their next events”, Zoe said.

Sunny day for annual bowls competition THE third running of the annual fives competition took place on a sunny Sunday at South Cliff Bowling Club in Scarborough. Twelve teams of five from the independent league played triples and singles matches in 40-minute sessions. Two points were awarded for a win with bonus points being awarded for every five shots gained. Ten matches were played by each team. After match 8 it was nip and tuck with Langtoft in the lead from Beeford 26 to 24, opening up a lead from Driffield 19 with Hutton Cranswick enjoying a
late charge on 18. By match 9 - the final triples, South Cliff won a dramatic last end by five points, snatching a draw from the jaws of defeat 8-8 against second place Beeford. Meanwhile, Langtoft beat
Action on the green
Driffield Town 8-1. Langtoft had increased their lead to 29 against Beeford’s 26, with Driffield Two in third place on 22.

Embarrassing start to golf competition A GOLFER had a damp and embarrassing start to a competition at South Cliff Golf Club in Scarborough. At the first hole, ladies vicecaptain Ann Wrigglesworth’s trolley rolled into a pond. With other golfers chuckling away, Ann waded in to retrieve
her trolley and clubs, causing a wet start to her medal round. In the Yorkshire Ladies County Golf Association foursomes competition, five pairs won a place in the second round at Catterick golf club in July. The winning score was 74, by Ann Eley and Sriwan Forrest.

Magnificent month for Taekwon-Do group A SCARBOROUGH TaekwonDo group is celebrating after bringing home 17 medals from the UKTA Scottish Open Championships. NEST TKD North Yorkshire took 12 students to the tournament in Motherwell and returned with 17 medals in total: four gold, five silver and eight bronze. The majority of the students were beginners who seriously impressed their coach, Paul
Bateman. He said: “This was simply an amazing result and far beyond my expectations of them.” But the work hasn’t stopped there for the group: 19 students were promoted at the first Eastfield grading, which was hosted by Mr Black (5th Degree) who travelled down from Redcar for the day. NEST TKD North Yorkshire also hosted its first Area Technical
Medals a plenty for the NEST TKD North Yorkshire in the Scottish Open Championships
Seminar in Pickering, which was conducted by ITF Wales Head Coach, Master Matthews (7th Degree). The weekend involved lots of technical work on correct stances, strikes and kicks and showing students how to improve on sharpness and power. The Eastfield Taekwon-Do class has attracted lots of community support. It is now open to new members and organiser Paul wants to encourage as many kids to join in as possible. There are classes for all ages (4yrs+) and abilities. NEST TKD is affiliated with the national governing body, British Taekwon-Do Council (BTC) and is a member of the United Kingdom Taekwon-Do Association (UKTA). To enquire about joining call Mr Paul Bateman on 07749 713958 or find the group on facebook by searching nestnorthyorkshire.

Eighty classes will be led by live and virtual expert instructors. To take advantage of the free sessions, users must have a membership card, which is available online and at

Weather cuts turnout for Tour de Yorkshire Cold weather and high seas significantly reduced the turnout for the Tour de Yorkshire’s return to Scarborough. Many race fans chose to watch on TV from the comfort of their homes, leaving only a few hundred well-wrapped diehards to assemble in Marine Drive for the finishes. However, thousands more had lined the route. The town hosted the climax of the women’s race and the end of the third stage of the men’s race. Both finishes were delayed by about half an hour as the cyclists had to battle against a strong northerly wind on the outward part of the race, from Bridlington to Whitby. En route, they sped through Hunmanby, Cayton, East Ayton, Hackness, Silpho, Harwood Dale, the North York moors and Robin Hood’s Bay.
Alexander Kamp sprints to victory on the third stage of the Tour de Yorkshire (to order photos ring 353597)
The women’s race was won by Dutch rider Marianne Vos, who belted along the seafront with rivals Margarita Victo Garcia Cañellas (Spain) and Soraya Paladin (Italy). A wall of sound greeted Danish cyclist Alexander Kamp as he sprinted to a nail-biting victory on the third stage of the men’s race, with waves overtopping the sea wall. He was a split-second ahead of British rider Chris
Lawless, whose team sponsor, multinational chemicals company Ineos, attracted anti-fracking protesters at the finishes, by the Rotunda Museum and at the Windings between Hackness and Silpho. After the men’s race, a large convoy of police motorcyclists assembled in Queen’s Parade before setting off together, waving and tooting at pedestrians.

CUP WIN FOR BORO After losing to Middlesbrough in last season’s final, Boro went one better by beating Marske United 3-2 on penalties after a thrilling 2-2 draw in the North Riding Senior Cup Final at the splendid Riverside Stadium. Marske took the lead through Jamie Owens on 26 minutes, but Boro drew level shortly before the interval when James Walshaw converted the rebound after his penalty had been saved, and Michael Coulson then fired Boro ahead in the 61st minute. Craig Gott equalised for Marke after 73 minutes, and the game ended 2-2, before being decided by a penalty shoot-out, when Player of the Year Tommy Taylor saved three spot kicks to secure the cup for Boro to the delight of 900 travelling fans in the crowd of 1,502.

A busy season but all is now quiet

of the future
THE dust has settled at the conclusion of season 2018/19; a campaign that started with survival in North One East being a reasonable aim and almost ended with a second consecutive promotion. The excepted wisdom leading up to the play-off game with Blackburn was that if successful then there would be a complete rethink on how the club would recruit in order to improve their strength in-depth to cope with the challenges of the North Premier League. The Seasiders were however
unsuccessful in that play-off game and will now remain in North One East. However, although they did exceptionally well in their first season at level 6 they still need to improve to be competitive next season. The terrific work by conditioning Coach David White saw the Seasiders injuryrate at a low level; however they were never more than a couple of long term injuries away from being exposed by their lack of strength in-depth.
