OVER 180,000 race fans, racers and celebrity guests swarmed the grounds of the Goodwood estate last weekend to celebrate the Festival of Speed at Lord March’s house and garden. All day every day, the 35 classes of vintage and not-so-vintage race cars, supercars and motorcycles line up and take a run up the hill. Some classes are timed, most are not, some drivers/riders go for speed, others for show. One car drifted all the way up, stopping in front of the large grandstands to do donuts. Some motorcycles did wheelies. Some were piloted by famous racers

both past and present. Some by their current owners. And that’s probably the most inspiring thing about Goodwood -- the vast breadth of motorsports history. There was a class for bigengined racers from a century ago and there were also Formula One cars from last year. The depth and breadth of sports car racing was celebrated by representatives from the mid-’60s, a class of Group C race cars from 1980s Le Mans, and the very Porsche 919 that lead Le Mans only a couple weeks ago -- they were all either parked somewhere for all to see or running up the hill at full tilt.

Lord March’s garden party attracts 180,000 visitors

Hoy takes to the hay

The Festival has grown from a relatively small gathering of motoring enthusiasts 21 years ago to a somewhat massive celebration stretching over the course of four days. This year there was much to celebrate. Spectators mingled with racing legends Sir Stirling Moss, Damon Hill, Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton whilst stars from the music industry included Jay Kay and Geri Halliwell. Presenters Chris Evans and James Martin also took to the hill climb in their cars. Mercedes commemorated its 120th year of involvement in motorsport by perching two real race cars on a superbly graceful St. Louis-style arch that reached over the top of Goodwood Manor and onto the lawn beneath. Maserati marked its 100 years with a gathering of great Trident race cars past that will be surpassed only by the marque’s own centenary Sept. 18 in Italy. And John Surtees, the only driver/rider to ever win world championships in cars and on motorcycles, was honored with his very own class, featuring two- and four-wheeled vehicles he’s piloted

SIR CHRIS HOY, the six-time Olympic cycling champion, came to grief and ended up in the straw bales during a run at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. Hoy appeared to enter the unsighted Molecomb corner too quickly and went straight on, ploughing into the safety fencing on the right at barely undiminished

over the years. Surtees himself drove the Ferrari 158 he used to win the world title in 1964. Audi brought the rear-engined Auto Union Alpine Victor and an IMSA GTO quattro, Peugeot the 208 T16 it used on Pikes Peak (there was a class for Pikes Peak cars). Some manufacturers debuted cars at Goodwood. McLaren showed its 650S GT3 race car. Land Rover drove a camouflaged Range Rover future model up and down the hill several times. Nissan debuted a very supercar-ish Concept 2020 Vision meant for the “Gran Turismo 6” game, but which designer Shiro Nakamura told us could hint at a future production model. Aston Martin also had a “GT6” reveal, the DP100 Vision Gran Turismo. There were Jaguars, too, including four D-Types, among them the first D-Type ever made as well as two Le Mans-winning models. Andy Wallace piloted the XJR-15 that he drove to victory at Le Mans in 1988. We our humble selves were even supposed to drive something up the hill -- the very same Tom Walkinshaw Jaguar XJS Touring Car that won the Bathurst 1000 30 years before. That latter

plan, like so many others in racing history, unraveled when someone dumped oil down the track and there wasn’t enough time to clean it up when the day’s schedule dragged on past the show’s closing time of 6 p.m. It was well over a century’s worth of motorsports memories roaring,

squealing

and

sometimes sputtering engines up the short paved course over the grass, through the trees, past the brick wall and on up to the top of Goodwood hill. Since Goodwood is also home to an airfield, there was entertainment from above as well. The Red Arrows team

Parents urged to plan ahead as teachers’ strike approaches PARENTS in West Sussex are being warned that schools could be forced to close or partially close when members of the National Union of Teachers (NUT) take industrial action later this month. West Sussex County Council is warning parents to expect disruption to a number of schools when the strike takes place on Thursday, July 10. Three other unions, including Unison, are also striking on the same day which will impact some other council services. Parents are being advised to check with their child’s school to see what impact the action is likely to have and whether the school will be closed or partially closed to some classes.

Decisions about whether to close a school for the day are taken by individual headteachers and governing bodies. If a school remains open the headteacher and governing body need to check they have appropriate staffing arrangements in place to ensure the safety of pupils. People can find details of any school closures or partial closures on the County Council website at www.westsussex.gov.uk or by checking individual school websites. Parents should be aware in some cases a decision to close a school may be made at very short notice. The accuracy of information on the County Council website regarding the impact of the strike

is dependent on individual schools notifying the County Council of closures. Thursday, July 10 is also the day that three other Unions – Unison, GMB and Unite - are also planning industrial action. West Sussex County Council is continuing to work with unions to ensure that critical frontline services can be maintained for residents, although it is inevitable there will be some disruption to services on the day. The Council’s call centre will remain open as usual. Further information will be available on the WSCC website at www.westsussex.gov.uk in the run up to and during the strike.

The record time for the Goodwood Festival of Speed hillclimb was set in 1999 when Nick Heidfeld drove a McLaren MP4/13 Formula One car up the hill in 41.6 seconds (100.385 mph). For safety reasons Formula One cars are no longer allowed to do official timed runs, and will often focus on demonstrations that are spectacular rather than fast. In 2006 Heikki Kovalainen completed the course in a Renault R25 F1 car and was unofficially timed below 40 seconds.

Well known in the area for providing a high level of care, Westhampnett House is set on 3.5 acres of West Sussex's finest parkland, on the outskirts of the historic city of Chichester. Boasting its own listed Dovecote, Pond, Apple Orchard, and Stunning Gardens, the handsome Grade II listed Georgian building together with later additions provide an idyllic setting for the nursing and recovery of the 32 residents that our Home caters for.

BEING ENGLISH England doesn’t seem to be good at anything right now. Football, rugby, cricket, Eurovision, choosing the next EU President. I wonder if the countries who have a grudge against us; Argentina, France and for some reason the USA understand we are somehow even more amused by our failures than they are. SIRENS What’s it’s like to drive a Fire Engine or an Ambulance with the sirens on? The thing is that we ordinary motorists panic a bit in case we hold them up and they fail to save a life, so we skew into the kerb which often means the emergency vehicle has to do some tricky manoeuvring at speed to weave in and out. RED LIGHT STORY I heard of a man who eased his car forward three feet at traffic lights to make a gap for a flashing police car to squeeze through and got prosecuted for going through a red light.

@SoDif_interiors Not long until @IndieDayUK IndieDayUK #shoplocal on 4th July and support independent businesses #Midhurst #Petworth #Chichester

PUB STORIES Actually I doubt the Red Light story really happened. Like the one about the American woman who hired a car at Gatwick and drove to Cornwall. When she got there she took the car to a

garage and said it wouldn’t do more than 15 mph and only got 9 miles to the gallon. According to the story she had been used to driving automatics, and had driven 200 miles in first gear. This tale is seriously flawed, but I’ve heard it in the pub several times, and told it myself even more often. No one in the pub minds as long as the story is good and disparages a worthy target such as spoiled Americans.

OBE, because then his name would be Steve Earlobe. KNIGHTHOOD FOR MURRAY It has to be “Sir Andy” please. Before he retires. See, male tennis players are referred to historically by the umpires by their second name only. Except in the modern inventions of tie-breaks and Hawkeye challenges. So where everyone else would be “Mr Nadal has two challenges left” It would be “Sir Andrew is challenging the call on the baseline...” Brilliant.

GOODWOOD I had a round of golf at Goodwood while the Festival of Speed was being erected all around. Slick, charming, imaginative and above all successful. What this country needs isn’t a government (too hands-on) or a Royal family (too hands-off) in charge. We need an Earl.

GOLF JOKE St Peter goes up to God and says “Look down there, I can see a Bishop playing golf all by himself.” God says “So?” St Peter says “It’s a Sunday!” So God says “You’re a bit pedantic for this day and age, but I take your point. I’ll punish him.” The Bishop tees up on the 380 yard dog leg fourth, and drives. God closes his eyes and wills the ball over the trees, onto the green and into the hole.” St Peter is nonplussed “I thought you were going to punish him?” God says “I have. Who’s he going to tell?”

FULHAM FC As a youth I followed Fulham FC. One year I saw more of their matches than any other Fulham fan, and got to lead the chanting when Man U visited the Cottage and took over our end. Anyway, we had a player called Steve Earl. As a joke I nominated him for an Contact Tommy: Follow Tommy on

Girl approached by man in Bognor POLICE are appealing for witnesses and information about a girl being approached by a man in Bognor Regis. At around 3.30pm on Sunday (June 29), a 10-year-old girl was in Servite Close, Bognor Regis when she was approached by a man who asked her to go with him. She refused and ran off to the safety of her family. The man is described as being white, in his 20s, about 5’ 8”, slim build, with blonde gelled hair with brown bits showing through, styled with a quiff and wearing red shorts and a white vest top. DS Jo French said: “There was no physical contact and the girl was

physically unhurt, however she was scared and shaken by the interaction and did exactly the right thing by immediately returning to her family and telling them what happened. The man left Servite Close and went into the alleyway that leads towards Marshall Avenue. “We have increased our patrols of the area and please talk to our officers if you have any information or any concerns. At the moment we are not linking it to any other incident. If you saw this interaction or this man around the area or have any other information that relates please contact Sussex Police on 101 quoting serial 1011 of 29/6.”

A LOCAL MAN has appeared at Chichester Magistrates Court on Tuesday 24 June, charged with 12 child sex offences. Mark Sorensen, 50, of Harcourt Way, Selsey, is charged with attempting to incite a girl aged 13

to 15 to engage in sexual activity in 2013, with arranging/faciliating the commission of a child sex offence between 2011 and 2013, and with ten offences of making indecent images of children during the period 2010 to 2013.

Woman threatened by Chichester dog walker in Barnham drink driver charged POLICE are investigating an incident in Barnham in which a woman walking her dog was threatened. Between 8.45pm and 9pm on Sunday 22 June the local woman was walking her dog in Lake Lane, Barnham, when a man with a dog approached her and threatened her and her dog with a knife. Fortunately the occupants of a passing car shouted at the man and the woman and her dog ran away to safety. Thankfully nobody was injured. The suspect is described as a white man, in his fifties, with grey balding hair, wearing jeans and a T-shirt.

PC Jill Peacock said: “It seems

the dogs, which were both on

leads, had barked at each other, but that doesn’t account for what happened next. We are seeking any further witnesses to this incident and anyone who can help is asked to contact us via 101 or email

Police test drive hybrid cars

FOR THE FIRST time Sussex Police will take a step towards being a greener force by test driving a hybrid car. A Vauxhall Ampera Hybrid car will be test driven by Surrey and Sussex Police Driving School for four weeks and a Hyundai ix35 Hydrogen will also be tested by the team for one day. Dennis Ord from the Joint Transport Service who sourced the vehicle for the driving school said:

“We are looking to future proof our fleet of cars and reduce our carbon footprint. Over the last 10 years we have been replacing our cars with more fuel efficient vehicles. Around 70 per cent of our fleet are now fuel saving diesel vehicles. We are now looking at the next step by looking at low emission vehicles, such as electric, hybrids and hydrogen which could be used on a daily basis. This is the first time we have looked at these type of cars.”

Sussex

Police

and

Crime

Commissioner, Katy Bourne, has welcomed the move to explore a greener option for its fleet. She said: “I am pleased to see Sussex Police looking for more innovative ways of supporting operational requirements. The use of hybrid vehicles would not only help the Force cut its fuel costs but also reduce its environmental impact.”

Smaller management structure for WSCC approved by Councillors A SMALLER management team to lead West Sussex County Council into the future has been approved by Councillors. The authority’s Governance Committee met on Monday to consider reducing the overall senior management team from eight directors to four executive director posts and from 64 overall senior managers to around 20 with some functions being delivered in different ways. It was also agreed that the council will continue with the Chief Operating Officer leadership model following the decision to make the chief executive position redundant in February. The new structure will align the senior leadership structure to West Sussex County Council’s core priorities of giving children the best start in life, supporting older residents to live independently for as long as possible and creating a strong and diverse economy. It will also provide a renewed focus on strong and vibrant communities where people are encouraged to help themselves and each other, a new commercial emphasis, and

a continued focus on providing quality customer service. West Sussex County Council Leader Louise Goldsmith said after the meeting: “Over the last few months there has been much work going on around transforming services at County Hall - all part of the County Council’s on-going evolutionary process . “At the backbone of that evolution is the relentless focus we have on our three key priorities and of course ensuring that we, the County Council, are always there in an emergency, that we protect the frail and vulnerable and that we help people to help themselves. “There been a considerable amount of consultation with staff about these changes - road shows, meetings and presentations to the county’s different political groups. “We need to evolve so we can continue to provide quality services to our residents at a time when we have a reducing income but increasing demands for what we provide. Our current structure is simply not sustainable. “I’m incredibly proud of our workforce. They’re hardworking,

loyal

and

care

about

the

communities of West Sussex that they serve. But there has never been a more challenging time for local government and it is inevitable that these proposed changes will have an impact on our staff and particularly on our managers. “However, we provide more than 80% of local public services in West Sussex and our frontline services are what matter to our communities. We need to adapt and evolve in order to protect them as much as we can. What matters to us is what works - that services are delivered by the right people, in the right way at the right cost and where we, as a county council, cost the tax payer less.” The final approval for the new structure, and the appointments of key statutory officers, will be taken by West Sussex County Council’s full council meeting on July 25.

£1000 reward offered over man sought for West Sussex burglaries

POLICE are offering a reward of £1000 in a bid to find 38-year old Simon Peter Knights, who they want to interview about with four burglaries and one attempted burglary, at addresses in Barnham, West Sussex during the day on Monday (16 June), and a burglary during the day in Park Road, Burgess Hill, on Thursday 19 June. Two addresses in Downview Road, one in Elm Grove and one

in Barnham Road, Barnham, were broken into and jewellery was taken. An unsuccessful attempt was made to enter another Barnham Road address. In the Burgess Hill burglary several hundreds of pounds worth of jewellery was taken. Knights is white, about 5’8”, and has ginger hair and blue eyes. Officers are also making enquiries in East Sussex and in the Southend and Basildon areas of south Essex, where Knights is known to have connections. The reward is offered subject to arrest and conviction for one or more of the offences. Detective Sergeant Darren Lilywhite of the West Sussex Priority Crime Team said: “If you know where Knights is please contact Sussex Police via 101 or email 101@sussex.pnn.police.uk quoting Serial 840 of 16/06. You can also contact the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”

Businesses, MPs and councils unite to drive A27 Action campaign for improvements WEST SUSSEX businesses, councils and MPs have united in a campaign to dual the A27. Supported by West Sussex County Council, the A27 Action campaign has now officially launched. It renews the fight for upgrades to the notorious stretch of road that runs across West Sussex. Leading business figures are making the argument that such improvements are vital for the prosperity and economic growth of the county. Companies are being asked to support the fight by completing an online survey at: www.a27action. co.uk The results will be collated and presented to Government as part of a package of evidence about why improvements are so desperately needed. The campaign is being spearheaded by leading business figures from the county, including Ricardo UK and the local Chambers of Commerce. It calls for: Dualling of the A27 across Sussex; Six improved junctions at Chichester; Improvements to the WorthingLancing corridor including the five main junctions and a new junction at Lancing; A bypass of Arundel;

Improvements to the Fontwell junction; Improvements to the trunk road junctions at Brighton; and Improved A27/A26 access to Newhaven. The A27 is on a list of six routes across the country being considered by the Government for improvement, and over the last six months West Sussex County Council has had meetings with the Department of Transport to make the case for improvements on the A27. The campaign group wants to present evidence to the DFT from local businesses about why the A27 needs to be at the top of the improvement list. MP for Chichester Andrew Tyrie, MP for Worthing West Peter Bottomley, MP for Bognor Regis and Littlehampton Nick Gibb, and MP for East Worthing and Shoreham Tim Loughton also support the campaign.

Never knowingly underpaid? My email inbox is awash with petitions, many of which are about the living wage. The living wage has been in the news, with the campaign group backing it, led by the Archbishop of York, telling us most people in poverty are working. Campaigners think a national hourly wage of £7.64 is the minimum to survive on in a way that is socially acceptable. It’s just £1.34 more than the legal minimum wage but for someone working a 40 hour week adds up to more than fifty quid extra. One of the petitions is appealing for the living wage for contract cleaners at John Lewis, another for staff at Picturehouse Cinemas, owned by Cineworld, that includes one of my all-time favourite cinemas, the Duke of York’s in Brighton. Another well-known household name under fire is high street fashion chain Next which reportedly pays 2p above the minimum wage to staff over 21. It’s a bit startling to hear John Lewis, the brand that is never knowingly undersold, mentioned

Allis Moss Writer and broadcaster

in the same breath as those talking about unfairness. Here is a business in which everyone is a Partner. John Lewis has been swift to reject the criticism saying it’s just using contract cleaners like most other firms. Does that make it okay to use cleaners who are paid less than the living wage? A quick flip through the postings on change. com tells you opinion is divided. One contributor says he can’t sign the petition because it should be against the contractor employing the cleaners while another calls the store’s attitude the “wishy washy approach of non-responsibility” of the kind that justifies abuses like child labour, opining that it is “time for John Lewis to set an example.”

As a John Lewis customer, let me throw my penny’s worth in: if your reputation is founded on ethical treatment of staff then it seems to me fair to say you are responsible for anyone working on the premises. Yes, the petitioners could target the cleaning contractor itself. People power, as we now know, is a mighty force - but the contractor probably wouldn’t have the clout to be a trend-setter, to redefine socially acceptable practice and business scruples in a wider sense. All that would happen is another cleaning company would probably undercut them for contracts. There has to be a sea-change in how we find it acceptable to do business for it to become the norm rather than an exploitable exception. John Lewis does have that caché and could take a unilateral stance like other chains have taken decisions about where to display lads’ mags with sexualized content, to give just one example. But John Lewis also seems to be saying it can’t agitate for a living wage for employees of another company

when it doesn’t pay that itself, but rather tops up wages based on market forces through a share-out of the profits among all partners. Mind you, if that’s the corner stone of the company, it could employ its cleaners directly, full or part-time, to benefit from the same system. The way I see it, if a company wants to buy in specialist assistance, whether it’s doing the accounts or important but not necessarily the most glam jobs like steamcleaning the floors, it should take them on under the same conditions as their own shop floor staff. That way contract workers won’t get caught in the undercut loop that pares their wages down to the bare minimum. Coffee, bananas and living wage? Perhaps we could raise the minimum wage and make it liveable? Or maybe we could have a kite mark, like fair trade chocolate, Contact Allis:

The company’s charity, the Checkatrade Foundation was set up to help those most in need both locally and abroad especially children. Checkatrade fundraiser, Claire Allen, said: “Staff at Checkatrade went to visit Redwood Park School and were shocked to discover that the children currently have to change in a small cramped building separate to the pool with no heating, toilets or showers with disabled children changing behind a curtain poolside. They then decided that this was the project they wanted to support. And it’s not just the school that will benefit; other groups also use the pool so it’s going to make a huge difference to the wider local community.” Kevin Byrne said of his achievement: “I took on this challenge because swimming is a hugely important part of sports therapy and we really wanted to help make a difference to the pupils. The Checkatrade Foundation is committed to raising the money needed and we have lots of other fundraising events taking place

cost of getting there. However, the research showed that top days out in the South Downs include Arundel Castle, Petworth House and Park and Weald and Downland Museum, all of which are accessible via the new Discovery bus ticket. Another incentive to explore the region this summer is a new limited edition ice cream flavour, voted for by South Downs residents and created by local Downsview

Farmhouse, which will launch to coincide with the ticket roll out. As a picnic in the fresh air proved a favourite South Downs activity for 71% of residents, many chose the ‘Cream Tea’ flavoured ice cream, containing strawberries, clotted cream and poppy seeds, as the taste that conjured up their experiences of the South Downs. For one day only, on Saturday 5th July, this exclusive ice cream flavour will be available for £2 per cup at selected locations across the South Downs including Arundel Castle (2pm-5pm), Queen Elizabeth Country Park (10am1pm), Lewes Castle (10am-1pm) and Seven Sisters Sheep Centre (2pm-5pm). Nick Stewart, Campaigns & Identity Project Manager, South Downs National Park Authority (SDNPA) says: “We hope the Discovery ticket will make our popular attractions and beauty spots easier to visit and better value for money by bus, giving visitors even more of a reason to leave the car at home and explore the South Downs with the kids this summer. And because an ice cream is an essential part of any summer day out, we hope families will enjoy our limited edition Cream Tea ice cream as part of the ride!” Sarah from Downsview

alongside such as dress down days, cycle rides and a jailbreak fundraising challenge this month too. It’s been hard work running a marathon a month especially in January when I ran on my 50th birthday and also had our Checkatrade annual ball on the same day! But it’s all been worth it and we are aiming to start work this summer.” The view is shared by Lynda Butt, new head teacher at Redwood Park. She said: “We are very fortunate to have a lovely indoor heated swimming pool. Unfortunately for some of our pupils the condition of the current changing facilities can be a barrier to engagement in swimming. The new changing rooms will make a huge difference ensuring that, before and after swimming, all our pupils feel safe in a brilliant ‘fit for purpose’ environment.” If you would like to find out more or to donate to ‘The Big Build at Redwood School’, please go to www. checkatradefoundation.org.

Farmhouse added: “We are passionate about helping people enjoy all that is special about the region and hope that a combination of the new Discovery ticket and a bespoke ice cream flavour becomes the recipe for a perfect summer day out.” This Saturday 5 July there are even more reasons try the Discovery ticket. Anyone who travels to one of the selected four locations via bus will receive a free Cream Tea ice cream. Ice creams will be sold at selected times at Arundel Castle in West Sussex, Queen Elizabeth Country Park in Hampshire and Lewes Castle and Seven Sisters Sheep Centre in East Sussex only. To make it even easier for families to Discover the South Downs National Park on a budget the SDNPA is working with the most popular attractions in the area to offer 2-4-1 entry to reward those who leave the car at home and arrive by bus including Petworth House and Park, Weald and Downland Museum and Seven Sisters Sheep Centre. South Downs residents can share their picnic experience on social media with #DiscoveryTicket. For further information visit www. discoveryticket.co.uk or follow @ snpa on Twitter for updates.

Discover the new flavour of the South Downs

A NEW WAY to explore the South East, the Discovery ticket, officially launches in the South Downs area today, giving families the freedom and flexibility to hop on and off all buses in the National Park throughout the day, making travel in the South Downs easier than ever before. To celebrate the launch, on 5th July for one day only South Downs residents can ‘discover’ a summer ice cream surprise at

selected locations across the South Downs and beyond. Launching in advance of the summer holidays, the Discovery ticket allows unlimited, one-day travel across the region for £12.50 for a family and the ticket is timely as new local research shows that whilst many South Downs residents are keen to travel by bus – 56% think it’s difficult to visit favourite places and 34% worry about the

National News News in Brief • A woman dubbed the “Angel of Woolwich” for confronting one of the killers of soldier Lee Rigby has been detained under the Mental Health Act. Ingrid Loyau-Kennett, 49, from Helston in Cornwall, was praised by the prime minister for her actions shortly after the attack on Fusilier Rigby last year. She had been under investigation after claims a Tesco worker was racially abused in the town on Friday.

Record number of deaths recorded on our railways

• The world could soon be “cast back into the dark ages of medicine” unless action is taken to tackle the growing threat of resistance to antibiotics, Prime Minister David Cameron has said. He has announced a review into why so few anti-microbial drugs have been introduced in recent years. Economist Jim O’Neill will lead a panel including experts from science, finance, industry, and global health. It will set out plans for encouraging the development of new antibiotics. • Questioning of four suspects in the Madeleine McCann investigation has concluded without any new developments, a source has told the BBC. The source close to the inquiry played down the significance of the interviews carried out in Portugal on Tuesday. Portuguese detectives in Faro were observed during the questioning by officers from the Met Police, which is conducting its own investigation. Madeleine disappeared aged three in the Algarve resort of Praia da Luz in 2007. • Five teenagers who murdered a man in a Liverpool launderette when some of them were 13 years old have been sentenced. The “truly wicked, marauding mob” stabbed Sean McHugh, 19, with a “sword stick” in Anfield on 30 September 2013. Reese O’Shaughnessy, 19, was jailed for a minimum of 18 years after he was convicted alongside four others. Andrew Hewitt, 15, Keyfer Dykstra, Corey Hewitt and Joseph McGill, all 14, were also detained by Liverpool Crown Court. • A temporary stop notice has been issued to halt work on a Cheltenham house, where a Banksy artwork appeared. Locals have been trying to save the “Spy Booth” mural after it was claimed it had been sold and would be removed. On Tuesday, it looked “increasingly likely” the work would be removed after efforts by local businesses to save it stalled. But Cheltenham Borough Council has served a notice to stop work on the house on Fairview Road for 28 days. The artwork, depicting men “snooping” on a telephone box, appeared in April.

A RECORD number of people died last year from either trespassing or committing suicide on the railways. In all, 300 members of the public were killed, either by taking their own lives or from accessing parts that they were not supposed to.

That is 22 more than the year before and the highest number recorded so far by the Rail Safety and Standards Board (RSSB) in its 10 years of records. However, it is still the safest form of transport on land.

ELEVEN people have been arrested in raids across Greater Manchester by police targeting suspected suppliers of a drugs operation worth £300m. Police executed warrants at addresses in Altrincham, Prestwich, Salford and Bolton in

the early hours. Eight men were arrested on suspicion of drugs trafficking offences and three women were arrested on suspicion of possessing class B drugs. A quantity of cash and drugs were also seized, police said. Det Supt Jason Hudson, head of operations at Titan, the North West Regional Crime Unit, said the arrests came after a year-long investigation. He said: “We continue to send a strong message to others involved in this type of crime that we will act on information we receive and we will be knocking on your door.”

£300 million pound raids

The RSSB’s latest report also shows a steep rise in the number of trains going through red lights. There were 293 Signals Passed At Danger (SPADS) last year, which is 43 more than the year before. Eight people also died on level crossings. Mick Cash of the RMT union said: “This should serve as a wakeup call to those pushing for more cuts to staffing and maintenance budgets.” But, having said all of that, it is important to remember that the train is still the safest way to travel on land. Moreover, all of this sits against a whopping increase in the number of us actually catching

a train, with journeys up 53% in a decade. And that there were no passenger or workforce deaths as a result of a train actually crashing. In fact, not one passenger train came off the rails over the past year, which is the first time that has happened for two decades. So the big picture here is that, compared with even a few years ago, trains are safer than they have ever been. When I met the new boss of Network Rail recently, Mark Carne, I asked him what he said in his interview to land him the top job. He told me that his big pitch was that by making the network safer, he would make it more efficient too. He came from the oil industry, which he said adopts the same philosophy. And his predecessor, Sir David Higgins, also regularly told me that safety came first in everything he did on the network. Still, it is hard to understand why 293 trains went through red lights, when most people would assume we have safety systems to stop that happening. There is a system on our network, called Train Protection & Warning System (TPWS), which basically stops the train if you pass a red signal. Clearly, you have still passed the signal, but that does not in itself mean you will have a crash if you stop fairly quickly afterwards. TPWS was introduced after the Ladbroke Grove crash in 1999, when more than 30 people died after a train went through a red light.

Firefighters to join strike FIREFIGHTERS in England and Wales will join a one-day strike by public sector workers on 10 July, the Fire Brigades Union has announced. More than a million council staff, health workers, teachers and civil servants are expected to take industrial action on the same date. The FBU is involved in a row over pensions and retirement age. The government said fire authorities had “robust and welltested plans that include back-up

support if needed”. Firefighters have been involved in a series of strikes over the past year

but

the

dispute

remains

unresolved. The FBU strike is due to take place between 10:00 and 19:00 BST and will be the 15th in the firefighters’ campaign. The union is expected to announce further action later this week.

Nordic Walking for lunch? Kylee Charles Director of PR Consultancy Mindseye Management

I was pleased to be contacted by Herald reader, Sylvia May last week. Through reading my weekly column, Sylvia recognised that I’m a great advocate for balancing work, life and healthy living and was keen to make me aware of her new Nordic Walking business. The description alone caught my attention and I was eager to find out more. Working hard to ensure her business finds it feet within Chichester, Sylvia’s busy organising walking groups

Chichester Herald provides businesses with an unrivalled, targeted and costeffective advertising solution across the City with a newspaper readership of 83,000.

We also deliver thousands of newspapers to homes across the area every week. As well as this, over 1000 businesses

that appeal to all, including workplaces, through the creation of regular sessions. I was particularly interested in this aspect, as I personally understand the importance of stepping away from the computer each day, to get some fresh air, exercise and recharge. The invitation to ‘have-a-go’ was one I didn’t want to miss and it was a on a hot and sunny afternoon at Chichester Rugby Club that I met the NWUK qualified Instructor behind the new local fitness group. Greeted with a big smile and two specialised walking poles, Sylvia began to teach me the practice of Nordic Walking around Oaklands Park. She explained how Nordic Walking’s an enhancement of ordinary walking, taking something we learn to do as babies, but making it twice as effective. The use of poles to walk was something I had never tried before but I could feel just how my upper body and arms were getting a good work out as they helped in our area will also get at least one newspaper delivered to them whether they are in the City Centre, a town or village, an industrial business park or a lone café on a country road.

to propel me along. Chatting to Sylvia about the technique, I could hear I was slightly out of breath, which I didn’t expect! I could really feel that I was working harder at walking, yet the support given by the poles made it feel easier too. Sylvia made sure I understood that Nordic Walking is a specific fitness technique and one not to be confused with trekking, hill walking or trail running. Offering a great body workout, it can be done by anybody, anywhere and does not require expensive equipment or clothing. Sylvia’s aim is to ultimately have enough instructors to develop Chichester Nordic Walking, so that there is a class every day of the week, somewhere in the District. “What I love about being part of Nordic Walking UK, is that I

am constantly being trained in new ways and sharpened to give the best possible service to the community. I am not just a lone instructor, but part of a bigger National programme to encourage

people to Nordic Walk in the best possible way,” Sylvia said. “A number of my clients are also up for training to be part of the Children on the Edge Half Marathon this year in October so we will be behind the runners with our own time record.

ALTHOUGH COMMUNICATING in 140-character messages may feel a bit foreign, Twitter offers unique ways to reach new people and engage with existing customers. Here are a few reasons to focus on growing your business’ presence on Twitter: Twitter’s community is much more active. More than 100 million daily active Twitter users post 500 million tweets a day. That means the average Twitter user posts five times a day, compared to Facebook users who post less than once a day. Twitter reaches a different demographic. Although Facebook is growing in popularity with users over the age of 25, older teens are actually “embarrassed” to be associated with Facebook and worry their parents will be watching their every move. Younger social media users prefer Twitter to Facebook or Instagram. Twitter gives you more for your money. Thanks to a decline in Facebook’s organic reach, brands’ presence on Facebook is beginning to depend on just how much they’re willing to spend. Meanwhile, Twitter drives more clicks than Facebook and routinely outperforms Facebook ads.

APPLICATIONS for grants from West Sussex County Council’s Social Enterprise Fund have opened for this year. From Tuesday, July 1 social enterprises can apply for a share of the £350,000 fund for projects and initiatives that will benefit the local economy, community and environment. Grants of up to £25,000 are available. Social enterprises are companies with social values at the heart of their business. Profits are reinvested into the business or into the local community. Examples include co-operatives, where staff own a part of the business, and community interest companies. Previous recipients of funding include the Chichester-based Sailboat Project, which helps people develop skills such as navigation, engine maintenance and team working and can lead to a recognised sailing qualification. The project was awarded £12,000 to develop their community training programme, enabling them to identify and reach out to marginalised communities across West Sussex. Another recipient was Breathing Spaces, a project that aims to

improve the quality of life and wellbeing of older people through therapeutic gardens, which appeal to all five senses and are specially adapted to the needs of the user. A grant of £25,000 has allowed them to set up a service in Worthing. West Sussex County Council is running free information workshops to provide more detail about the Social Enterprise Fund and who can apply. This will be County Hall, Chichester Wednesday, July 9 from 10am to midday in our area. Additional free of charge oneto-one sessions will be available to support organisations through the application process, and help them develop their plans and budgets. There are two funding schemes available under the Social Enterprise Fund. The deadline for applications to Stream 1 (Early Stage Development Grant) is 5pm on Tuesday, August 12. The deadline for Expressions of Interest under Stream 2 (main grant scheme) is 5pm on Thursday, August 14. Full details can be found at www.wssen.org.uk/socialenterprise-fund-2014-2015.

Caroline’s Dairy raises over £800 for the Sussex Snowdrop Trust

promotes a passion for farming and natural produce, and is attended by hundreds of thousands nationally each year. This is the second year running that the Spiby family have opened up Marsh Farm Dairy where they produce the milk for Marks & Spencer, who once again showed their support for the event through the contribution of refreshments and a raffle prize. The milk is also used to make Caroline’s Dairy luxury ice cream which is produced at Chalder Farm. There was a range of activities running throughout the day across both farms including tours of the dairy, a chance to meet the farm vets and watch the cows being milked, pond dipping and wildlife activities. Visitors also got the opportunity to see Caroline’s Dairy ice cream being made in the parlour and to buy some to take home or eat on the day. There were plenty of other

This exciting technology can improve our quality of life and help to grow our economy by enabling new businesses to start up and existing ones to prosper.” More than 40 new roadside fibre broadband cabinets are being built and connected to power supplies and BT’s fibre-optic network in phase one of the eight phase roll out of publiclyfunded broadband infrastructure in West Sussex. When a cabinet is live customers contract to buy fibre broadband services from an internet service provider, in the usual way.

Caroline was delighted with the day, commenting: ‘We would like to thank everyone who came to learn more about our farm and support local farmers. The enthusiasm of visitors made Open Farm Sunday a hugely enjoyable event for everyone, and ensured a great success for the charity.’ Open Farm Sunday is an annual event run by LEAF, a charity supporting farmers and producers in their efficient and ecological management of farms.

It may be an old cliché for some but for us every penny counts and £800 is formidable. As a unique local charity we provide nursing care at home for local children who have been diagnosed with a life threatening or terminal illness and we keep all our costs to a minimum so that money we receive can be spent on our special children and their families. The parents rely on our Snowdrop nurses and the entire Snowdrop care at home team are exceptional, as all the families we look after will tell you.’ If you would like to learn more about the dairy farm and Caroline’s Dairy ice cream, please sign up to the newsletter and join the recipe room via their website http://www. carolinesdairy.co.uk/

Mrs Brown’s Boys D’Movie (15) Running time: 95 mins Director: Ben Kellett Starring: Brendan O’Carroll, Jennifer Gibney, Fiona O’Carroll, Robert Bathurst, Danny O’Carroll, Eilish O’Carroll, Rory Cowan

Brendan O’Carroll’s brilliant comic creation defends her market stall from a nasty developer in her hilarious big-screen debut. Feisty

matriarch Agnes Brown (Brendan O’Carroll) runs a fruit and vegetable stall in Dublin’s historic Moore Street Market. It’s been in her family for generations and she hopes eventually to pass it to daughter Cathy (Jennifer Gibney). Then she receives a vast tax bill. Maria (Fiona O’Carroll) and Rory (Rory Cowan) embark on a foolhardy plan to raise the cash by swimming the channel. Meanwhile, our potty-mouthed heroine learns that she’s not the

only one to have her livelihood and heritage threatened. A dastardly developer wants to bulldoze the entire market. Now Agnes must take on the Irish establishment - with a little help from Buster Brady’s troop of blind trainee Ninjas, an alcoholic solicitor, and a barrister with Tourette’s Syndrome! This uproarious spin-off from Brendan O’Carroll’s much-loved, BAFTAwinning TV comedy sensation was filmed in authentic Dublin locations.

Sky Diary July 2014 Graylingwell Park Summer Garden By Peter Littlejohns

Elusive little Mercury only reaches about 4 degrees above the NE horizon this month with the Moon fairly close by on the 23rd as a guide. Venus moves from Taurus into Gemini and sits above and to the right of Mercury in the pre-dawn sky. The Earth reaches aphelion on the 4th of July at 01:13, its furthest point from the Sun at 152 million km. Also the Moon is at its furthest point from the Earth at a distance of 406,568 km on the 28th of the month. The red planet Mars is gradually getting dimmer as it moves ever further away from us, lying in the constellation of Virgo and setting around midnight.

Jupiter has been amazing to observe but, by the end of July, it will be getting lost in the evening twilight. Saturn crosses the meridian at 20:30 mid-month in Libra and is only one degree above the Moon on the 8th. A small to medium telescope will show the largest one of its 65+ satellites, Titan, which is considerably bigger than our Moon. Meteors :- There are several showers this month, the favourable ones being on the 21st from Cygnus high in the E, and on the 8th and 26th from low in the E, all with about 5 meteors per hour. On the 28th from low SE there is a better shower with around 20 per hour at maximum.

Entrepreneurs put Europe’s leftover food online

WOULD YOU eat a stranger’s leftover lunch? Across Europe, apps and websites that distribute excess food are edging into the mainstream as both start-ups and charities join the sharing economy trend. But critics are calling for better regulation to police hygiene standards. If you are hungry in Hungary, you could do a lot worse than tucking into one of Judit Szilagyi’s

dishes. When the 26-year-old student gets home from university, she spends her evenings roasting spicy vegetables, mashing creamy potatoes or frying sweet pancakes. She posts photos of her food on Piqniq, a new Budapest-based app, which allows her followers to request a portion for themselves. “My biggest hobby in the world is to cook,” she says. “It’s not the same if you don’t

have someone to share your food with. And if you’ve made too much to eat by yourself then why not give it to someone else who wants it?” Gorging on someone else’s halfgobbled goulash or snacking on their surplus sausages certainly won’t be to everyone’s taste, but Hungary’s venture into the foodsharing economy follows the rapid success of similar start-ups around Europe.

Greek company Cookisto began as a community to connect family cooks hoping to make some extra money with busy business people looking for an affordable hot dinner. In just 12 months it has attracted 40,000 members in Greece and the UK. Other similar sites include Shareyourmeal.net, which has 62,000 home cooks in the Netherlands and 20,000 in the

rest of Europe - making food with influences from as far afield as Indonesia, Afghanistan, Japan and India - and Leftoverswap, which started in the US last year and now has an expanding base in Europe. Piqniq was co-founded by Tamas Kiss who used to travel a lot through his previous job as a consultant and missed Hungarian home cooking when he on the road. “I wanted to build an app to allow me to peek into my neighbours’ kitchens and see what they are eating, what they are making, what’s in their fridge and then somehow connect with them,” he explains. The start-up currently asks users to share meals free, although there are plans to allow cooks to sell their food to strangers in future. “Our data shows that early adopters seem to be engaging either because they don’t want to eat the same food every day or because they feel proud and want to show off about what they make. For others it is just about being social and having fun,” adds Mr Kiss.

Cornwall parents spared school holiday fines

NO CORNWALL PARENTS have been fined for taking their children on holiday during term-time in the past academic year, according to council figures. In neighbouring Devon nearly 900 fines were handed out in the same period. Parents are banned from taking their children on breaks outside the traditional school holidays unless there are “exceptional circumstances”. Cornwall Council said it was up to heads to decide what was “exceptional” and whether fines should be issued.

David Barton, of the Cornwall Association of Secondary Heads, said fines were “not an automatic reaction” to absences without permission. “A conversation would be held with parents that the absence would be unauthorised,” he said. “I want to work with them to discourage them from taking their children out of school during term time and don’t believe an automatic fine, particularly for someone with good attendance, is a positive way forward.” Cornwall Council said in a statement: “The authority has not

advised head teachers in Cornwall to avoid issuing fixed penalty fines. “The decision on whether to grant leave of absence in term-time is always made by the head teacher of each school.” It said absences in primary schools reduced from 36,100 halfdays in 2012 to 23,100 in 2013, and in secondary schools over the same period absences were cut from 14,100 half-days to 10,300. “This shows that more children are now attending school in Cornwall without the need to unduly prosecute parents.” The Department for Education said: “Each local authority must consult with schools in its area to set the criteria for issuing penalty notices. “Evidence shows allowing pupils to regularly miss school can be hugely detrimental to a child’s education. “The most recent full-year figures show we are making progress, with 130,000 fewer pupils regularly missing school under this government.”

Hotel Hippo under investigation TRAVEL WEBSITE Hotel Hippo is being investigated by the information commissioner’s office (ICO) for a bug on the website that potentially allowed hackers to steal data. The security flaw was discovered by Scott Helme, a consultant at security firm Pentest, who found it while booking a hotel on the website. A spokesman from the ICO said: “What it appears to be is that people were given a five digit code and that was included in the URL, so when you changed it you could look at other people’s details.” Though Helme informed Hotel Hippo of the bug, he claims it was not until the BBC started to investigate that the company took the problem seriously.

He said the flaws were severe enough that it could place the site in breach of PCI compliance, and also allow hackers to operate “an effective and convincing phishing scam”. “Whilst I have to applaud them for taking the affected areas of the site offline at that time, it shouldn’t have to get so far before companies start taking responsible disclosures seriously,” he added. Hotel Hippo confirmed the website had been put on hiatus so that it could “take some urgent action to deal with a technical situation”. “Privacy of customer data is our prime concern, and we are committed to ensuring this safety,” it added.

Are you having enough…

I love them, I add them to my juice every morning, chop them for the children daily and quite frankly should have my own farm or have shares in one, because in my household we literally eat tons of them. What am I referring to? Cucumbers! Cucumbers are the fourth most cultivated vegetable in the world and known to be one of the best foods for your body’s overall health, often referred to as a super food. Cucumbers are often sprayed with pesticides so it is important to buy organic or even better, grow them yourself. If you can’t buy organic, peal them before eating. What are the Benefits of cucumbers? They are a great ‘pick me up’ as they are a good source of B vitamins. Put down your fizzy drinks and coffee and juice or eat cucumbers on a daily basis! They also rehydrate and boost your vitamin intake because they are 95% water, keeping the body hydrated and helping the body

Denise Kelly Naturopathic Nutritional Therapist eliminate toxins, while boosting most of the vitamins the body needs in a single day. Cucumber can be used brilliantly for skin irritations and sunburns if you place a slice over puffy eyes, its anti-inflammatory properties help reduce puffiness, plus the silicon and sulfur in cucumbers help to stimulate hair growth. Cucumber are also known to contain lariciresinol, pinoresinol, and secoisolariciresinol. These three lignans have a strong history of research in connection with reduced risk of several cancer types, including breast cancer, ovarian

cancer, uterine cancer and prostate cancer. For bad breath you can take a slice of cucumber and press it to the roof of your mouth with your tongue for 30 seconds. The phytochemcials will kill the bacteria in your mouth responsible for causing bad breath! Another great tip to avoid a morning hangover or headache is to eat a few cucumber slices before going to bed. Cucumbers

Cool as a cucumber! The term “cool as a cucumber” is actually derived from the cucumber’s ability to cool the temperature of the blood. Also when applied topically, cucumber really does cool the blood and eases facial swelling, which is why cucumbers are so popular in facial regimens. contain enough sugar, B vitamins and electrolytes to replenish many essential nutrients, reducing the intensity of both hangover and headache. Daily consumption of cucumbers can be regarded as a remedy for chronic constipation. It can also cure diabetes, reduces cholesterol and controls blood pressure. Cucumber juice contains a hormone which is needed by the cells of the pancreas for producing insulin which has been found to be beneficial to diabetic patients. Researchers found that a compound called sterols in cucumbers may help reduce cholesterol levels. Cucumbers contain a lot

of potassium, magnesium and fiber. These work effectively for regulating blood pressure and this makes cucumbers good for treating both low blood pressure and high blood pressure. Cucumber is an excellent source of silica, which is known to help promote joint health by strengthening the connective tissues. They are also rich in vitamin A, B1, B6, C & D, Folate, Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium. When mixed with carrot juice, they can relieve gout and arthritis pain by lowering the uric acid levels. So… what’s not to like about Cucumbers!

There is nothing more important than looking after your health to accomplish a thriving and vibrant life.

Pippa Middleton looks cool and chic in forties-inspired playsuit for laid back lunch THE DUCHESS OF CAMBRIDGE’S STYLISH SISTER showed off her fashion credentials once again in a summery outfit for lunch yesterday. Pippa Middleton, 30, wore a flirty forties-inspired polkadot playsuit which featured black cap sleeves, lapel and waistline detailing. Thrifty Pippa recycled the taupe outfit from Whistles’ AW 2010 collection, pairing it with a sensible pair of gold flat pumps and a matching tote. A similar style currently retails at £135 on the High Street label’s website. Pippa spent the day out with a friend in London before sitting down with her for some lunch in the sunshine. The royal sibling, who was spotted enjoying the tennis from the Royal box with her brother James last week, was indulging in an altogether more low key affair

as she was spotted deep in conversation with her pal as they took their time over a bite to eat. A waiter was seen bringing a tray of zesty drinks over to their table and the pair indulged in food and drink over their chat. Part way through their meal Pippa put her shiny hair up into a low, understated ponytail. She recently completed a marathon 3,000-mile Race Across America bike challenge with her brother James for charity, and her summery outfit allowed Pippa to show off results of her hard work. Her arms looked toned to perfection, with wellsculpted shoulders and triceps clearly showing as she clasped her handbag.

Conflict over who is going to drive causing couples in the South East to argue DECIDING who’s going to drive on an evening out can be a contentious issue with new research revealing it has caused an argument for one in five couples in the South East, while for one in eight it has ruined the evening entirely. Car insurance specialist Admiral surveyed South East motorists to find out who does the driving in their relationship. It found that for some couples the question about who will drive on an evening out is particularly tricky, with plans often going awry: 13% said they and their partner rarely stick to a plan about who’s going to drive on a night out where alcohol is involved 15% said their partner had offered to drive but then had a drink so they had to drive home instead 17% said they have had to leave their car behind as both they and their partner ended up having a drink despite one of them saying they would drive home Admiral managing director, Sue Longthorn said: “In any relationship there are going to be

issues which cause disagreements and for some couples deciding who will drive is clearly one of those. Our research shows negotiating who will drive when going out for the evening is causing a lot of couples to bicker, with 21% of motorists in the South East saying it has caused them to row with their partner and 13% saying an evening had been ruined by it.” However people in the South East don’t argue as much as motorists in the rest of the UK about who is going to drive, where 26% said it had caused an argument. But they are less generous than motorists elsewhere in the country when it comes to picking up their partner if they are out with their own friends for the evening. Only 50% of motorists here said they do this, compared with 61% in the UK as a whole. Sue Longthorn commented: “A lot of the couples we surveyed said they split the driving evenly, which is surely the fairest way, and the best way to prevent arguments.”

Zombies get punished by Falcons Chichester Falcons 22 Portsmouth Zombies 4 CHICHESTER FALCONS SOFTBALL CLUB notched up another win against Portsmouth Zombies last Sunday, taking their season to 3 for 4 in the Solent Softball League. Third and first basemen Emma Brown and Lucy Morris set the tone by earning first inning walks to put the Falcons 2 up as Ben Sawkins, pitching his first game of the season, shut out the Zombies before airmailing an RBI double to centre field. Sam McGann in left field was typically solid, and was able to gun several line drives back to his cutoff to limit the Zombies to 3 runs in the second, but the Falcons were cruising with 10 already on the board. Emma Burfoot, untroubled at centre right, got on base twice but debutant Matt Burgess stole the show, making a textbox fourth inning catch at second base and

Chichester Falcons Softball Club would welcome new interested people

hitting 4 for 5. Amelia Peachment and catcher Kelly Mikulla both slammed an impressive 100% OBP, leaving shortstop David Morris and rightfielder Raj Seedeehul to both hit home runs in the fifth to put the game beyond the Zombies’ reach at 22-4. Meanwhile the Falcons’ youth softball club has been taking shape during weekly sessions at Oaklands Park. Following several secondary

school taster sessions, the squad is steadily building as the youngsters hone their softball skills led by a handful of Falcons coaches. Boys and girls of age 12-16 are welcome to join in with the fledgling softballers as the Monday night sessions continue into the summer. Anyone who wants to try softball and join the Falcons can email chichesterfalcons@gmail.com or visit www.chichesterfalcons.com
