Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3ERX6T8 - The Middle of Lidl promotional aisle inside the Lidl supermarket on Thelwall Lane, Latchford, Warrington, photographed in summer 2026. A large display of clothing, footwear, underwear, hosiery, household textiles and accessories fills the centre of the store beneath repeated blue, red and yellow Don't miss out signs. The merchandise is presented in open metal bins and crowded shelving, creating the familiar treasure-hunt appearance associated with Lidl's rotating non-food offers. Visible Esmara branding identifies part of the clothing range, while yellow and blue clogs, folded garments, boxed products and assorted seasonal goods add colour and variety to the scene.
The image illustrates how discount supermarkets attract shoppers with rapidly changing limited-stock lines positioned alongside routine grocery shopping. Customers entering for food can encounter fashion, homeware, tools, leisure products or seasonal bargains that were not part of their original shopping plans. Bold promotional wording, prominent prices and the apparent scarcity of stock are designed to encourage curiosity, browsing and immediate purchasing decisions before products disappear from sale.
This busy retail interior provides useful editorial imagery for articles about consumer behaviour, impulse buying, value retailing, household budgets, supermarket competition and the continuing popularity of German discount chains in Britain. It can also illustrate retail psychology, scarcity marketing, cross-selling, promotional merchandising and the way supermarkets broaden their appeal beyond groceries. The lack of visible shoppers allows the densely packed display, vivid signage and mixed merchandise to dominate the composition, presenting the middle aisle as both a practical sales area and an attraction in its own right for bargain hunters seeking unexpected purchases. Tiled flooring and bright strip lighting reinforce the everyday supermarket setting.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3ER9NK1 - Fire eater in rainbow costume performing at Warrington Pride 2026 in Warrington town centre, Cheshire, England, UK. The red-haired performer stands with arms raised while holding flaming or performance props, wearing a vivid rainbow outfit that visually links the act with Pride colours and LGBTQ+ celebration. Warrington Pride 2026 was staged on Saturday 13 June and brought together music, entertainment, community organisations, businesses and allies across the town centre in support of equality, inclusion and LGBTQ+ visibility. This image is suitable for editorial coverage of Pride festivals, live performers, street entertainment, fire acts, rainbow symbolism, LGBTQ+ culture, diversity, inclusion, local events, community celebration, Warrington tourism and summer entertainment. The full-length composition records both the performer's theatrical costume and expressive pose, making it particularly useful for illustrating the spectacle and creative performance element of Pride rather than only crowds or parade participants. It also provides a strong visual representation of inclusive town-centre programming and the use of professional entertainers to broaden Pride festival attractions.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3ENF28Y - Evening view of an Avanti West Coast Pendolino intercity train standing at Warrington Bank Quay railway station in Cheshire, England, with the service destination shown as London Euston. The photograph captures a busy West Coast Main Line platform at dusk, with passengers boarding beside the open train doors, station lighting glowing under the canopy and a cool blue evening sky above the overhead electric wires. The Avanti West Coast branding is visible on the train side, making the image useful for editorial coverage of rail travel, long-distance commuting, public transport, passenger experience, railway capacity, north west connectivity and journeys between Cheshire, the Midlands and London. Warrington Bank Quay is an important town-centre station on the electrified West Coast Main Line, serving intercity routes as well as regional travel. The scene also shows the industrial rail setting around Bank Quay, with railway infrastructure, platforms, signage, overhead line equipment and station architecture all contributing to a strong documentary transport image. The dusk timing gives the platform a commuter and business-travel feel, suitable for stories about evening departures, timetable reliability, rail investment, fares, station accessibility, sustainable travel, modal shift from road to rail and the continuing importance of direct services to London Euston. The image is also relevant to stock uses around Avanti West Coast operations, Pendolino trains, WCML services, Cheshire transport, rail franchising, passenger rail policy, electrified railway routes and the practical reality of using intercity rail outside the largest city stations. Visible details include the yellow safety line, brick platform surface, destination information display, canopy lights, passengers waiting or boarding, and the distinctive dark Avanti train livery, all photographed in natural low evening light.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EG4C1D - A low level green lawn sign in Grappenhall, Warrington, Cheshire, asks dog owners to keep pets off private grass and to avoid dog fouling, with the words No poop and pee, be respectful around a red prohibition symbol. Photographed at ground level beside a neatly mown residential verge and kerb, the image captures a familiar everyday neighbourhood dispute over dog mess, pet urine damage, responsible ownership and respect for gardens, pavements and shared residential streets. The sign uses simple visual language, with a dog silhouette and crossed red circle, making the message clear for passers-by, dog walkers and residents without needing formal council wording. The scene has commercial and editorial relevance for stories about antisocial behaviour, environmental health, public realm maintenance, private lawns, estate management, tenancy conditions, neighbour tensions and the cost of keeping streets clean. Warrington Borough Council's dog control Public Space Protection Order gives the authority powers to act against irresponsible dog owners who fail to clean up after their dogs, and PSPO breaches can lead to a fixed penalty or court fine, making this small domestic sign part of a wider UK debate about local enforcement and civic responsibility. The cloudy sky and soft daylight suggest typical changeable North West England weather, while the suburban housing backdrop places the problem firmly in an ordinary residential setting rather than a park or tourist location. The photograph is useful for illustrating dog dirt complaints, pet etiquette, community standards, housing estate management, lawn care, urban cleanliness, local authority enforcement, street scene issues, public health risks, tenancy management, resident engagement, estate inspections, and tension between dog ownership and shared space in modern Britain. It can also support articles on how residents use signs to protect verges and communal green space when formal enforcement is difficult.

Three men stand behind a brightly branded brewery bar and cask display, representing the people who help staff and support local beer festivals. The photograph is suitable for editorial coverage of 4T's Brewery, Grappenhall Beer Festival, independent breweries, real ale, beer festival volunteers, local brewing, community events, hospitality and Warrington beer culture. Volunteer and brewery participation is central to many regional beer festivals, helping visitors discover locally produced ales and supporting social and fundraising activity. The image can illustrate stories about small breweries, beer tourism, community volunteering, cask ale, regional food and drink events and the social side of independent brewing in North West England.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EFEG34 - Photograph showing volunteers serving real ale drinkers and visitors at Grappenhall Beer Festival in May 2026, held at The Bellhouse, home of the Grappenhall Youth and Community Association, on Bellhouse Lane in Grappenhall, South Warrington, Cheshire. The image shows a long staffed bar with beer mats, pump clips, tasting sheets and festival paperwork in the foreground, while rows of cask beer barrels on stillage line the back of the hall, ready for pouring. Men and women are gathered at the counter and around the room, giving the scene a strong sense of a busy local beer event run by volunteers. According to the organisers and ticket listings, the 2026 Grappenhall Beer Festival took place on Friday 8 and Saturday 9 May 2026 at Grappenhall Community Centre, also known as The Bellhouse, and offered more than 30 real ales and ciders together with live music and hot food. This makes the photograph useful for editorial and commercial searches around real ale festivals, CAMRA style beer events, cask-conditioned beer, local brewing, community fundraising, volunteers, charity-run venues, beer tourism, Warrington social life and traditional British pub and brewing culture. The scene captures the practical side of a local beer festival, with volunteers staffing the serving counter, customers browsing choices, and casks arranged behind the bar in a straightforward temporary taproom setting rather than a permanent pub cellar. Strong concepts include Grappenhall Beer Festival, The Bellhouse, GYCA, Bellhouse Lane, real ale, cask ale, beer festival bar, Warrington, Cheshire, North West England, community centre, charity fundraiser, local brewers, beer lovers, CAMRA supporters, festival volunteers and social gathering. The indoor lighting, casual dress and busy bar atmosphere suggest a welcoming neighbourhood event focused on beer appreciation, fundraising and community spirit.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E8E1HD - A bright pink Gumdrop chewing gum recycling bin is fixed to a post in Warrington town centre as part of efforts to tackle discarded gum, pavement staining and street litter. The sign invites people to dispose of used chewing gum in a dedicated Gumdrop container rather than leaving it on paving, walls, benches or public spaces. Warrington Borough Council's street cleaning guidance tells residents and visitors to put litter and chewing gum in the bin and reminds people that littering is a criminal offence. Gumdrop says its distinctive pink bins are designed specifically for waste chewing gum and that full Gumdrop bins are recycled together with their contents to make new Gumdrop bins, creating a closed-loop approach to a sticky and costly litter problem. The image is commercially useful for stories about town centre cleanliness, local authority environmental campaigns, anti-litter measures, street cleaning costs, recycling innovation, behavioural change, public realm management and the everyday challenge of keeping shopping streets, pavements and pedestrian areas clean. The vivid pink colour, recycling symbol, QR code, Gumdrop web address and clear GUM HERE message make the photograph instantly readable as a public information and waste prevention image. It can also illustrate wider debate about chewing gum litter, council budgets, civic pride, urban maintenance, high street decline, public behaviour, environmental education and the use of small, targeted design interventions to reduce nuisance waste. The Warrington setting gives the scene local editorial value, while the generic street background makes it suitable for broader UK stories about gum removal, litter enforcement, plastic alternatives, circular economy ideas and the visible infrastructure used to encourage better habits in busy town centres.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DGE74K - The Rams Head public house in the village of Grappenhall near Warrington, Cheshire, is shown during a cold winter period in January with light snow covering the ground and a decorated Christmas tree standing outside the pub. The historic building, with its mix of brickwork and traditional architectural features, is set against clear blue skies and low winter sunlight, which highlights the textures of the walls, roof and surrounding outdoor seating areas. Snow settled on benches and pathways reinforces the seasonal setting and the crisp atmosphere of a winter's day in rural England.
Village pubs such as the Rams Head have long played an important role in British social and cultural life, acting as meeting places, landmarks and centres of community activity. During the winter and festive season, pubs often become visual symbols of warmth and tradition, even when photographed without people present. The Christmas tree outside the pub adds a seasonal focal point, linking the image to themes of celebration, tradition and continuity within English village life.
The photograph reflects wider themes of British pub culture, hospitality, leisure and local identity, as well as seasonal change and winter weather in the United Kingdom. It is suitable for editorial use in travel and lifestyle features, hospitality coverage, festive and winter-themed publications, calendars and broader cultural storytelling focused on traditional England, rural communities and the enduring presence of village pubs within the countryside.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3CPAX2W - Directional signage for the Trans Pennine Trail photographed in the Latchford area of south Warrington, Cheshire, England. The blue wayfinding signs indicate west and east routes along the long-distance trail and display symbols for both cyclists and pedestrians, highlighting the shared-use nature of the path. The Trans Pennine Trail is a major national route stretching coast to coast across northern England, designed to promote walking, cycling, and sustainable travel through a mix of urban, suburban, and rural landscapes.
In towns such as Warrington, the trail forms part of local active-travel infrastructure, connecting residential neighbourhoods with green corridors, waterways, employment areas, and nearby towns. The signage reflects consistent national trail branding and supports navigation for leisure users as well as commuters. The image illustrates broader themes of sustainable transport, public investment in cycling and walking infrastructure, and the integration of long-distance recreational routes into everyday urban environments across contemporary Britain.

The building is a listed seventeenth-century inn on Bell Lane, with oak small-framed construction, brick nogging, later brick and sandstone extensions and a grey slate roof. The image is especially useful for editorial stories about Cheshire village pubs, historic inns, traditional British pub architecture, timber-framed buildings, real ale culture, winter hospitality, cosy country pubs and local heritage in the Warrington area. The painted inscription running below the roofline refers to King Edward the Elder founding a fortified settlement here in AD 923 and naming it Thelwall, a story that gives the pub strong value for features on Anglo-Saxon history, place names, village identity and the older defensive landscape of north Cheshire. The low viewpoint, snow-covered foliage, pale winter sky and warm pub windows create an inviting seasonal image, suggesting shelter, food, drink and community life during cold weather. The Pickering Arms is also relevant to CAMRA and pub heritage coverage, as CAMRA describes it as a listed building in the heart of Thelwall village and notes the gable inscription about Edward the Elder. The photograph can support articles on pub preservation, heritage hospitality, rural and semi-rural dining, Warrington tourism, local history walks, historic village centres, community pubs and the survival of characterful independent-looking venues in a changing pub trade. The building's contrast of white render, black timbering, brickwork, slate roof and signboard makes it visually strong for stock use, while the snow adds a less common seasonal angle. It is a distinctive Cheshire pub scene connecting winter atmosphere, architectural heritage, real ale, local legend, Anglo-Saxon history and the continuing role of old inns as social landmarks.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RY1R1J - Thelwall Morris Men were formed in October 1973, the nucleus of the side being a group of regulars from the Thelwall Folk Club at the Pickering Arms, which was run by Maggie and Rod Goodall.
All of these men were absolute beginners. Some had seen morris dancing at Keele University Folk Festival earlier in the year and fancied trying it. The only trouble was how to get started?
The answer proved to be a small ad in Folk Review magazine, asking for someone to come and teach the dance. Around this time, Chris Maple, who became the side's first squire and foreman had arrived in the North West to take up a job in Liverpool. Chris proved well equal to the task of getting his raw recruits off on the right foot (or in our case, the left).
The side's first musician was Fred Horrobin (Maggie's dad) who busked on accordion for a couple of weeks until someone unearthed the exceptionally talented Steve Burgess from downtown Stockton Heath. Under Chris's tuition, the side learned an assortment of Cotswold dances, mainly Bampton and Adderbury to begin with. The first public performance took place, without baldricks and badges, at the Pickering Arms in August 1974 before a sceptical audience of wives and girlfriends and members of the folk club.
By 1975 the side had acquired it's kit. Black breeches and shoes, white shirt and socks, with baldricks of pale blue and claret surmounted by a distinctive badge representing the wall of Thells or stakes from which Thelwall, England's smallest city, derived its name in Anglo-Saxon times.
The side's first invitation to a day of dance was from Southport Swords in May 1975, and the inexperienced side made a favourable impression. The following year they attended their first Ring Meeting at Thaxted and have attended a Ring Meeting almost every year since then.
In 1977, the side visited Ireland for the Cobh festival, quickly followed, in 1979, by an invitation to Mallow, Ireland

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R72E6N - Leading contractor developer for the social housing sector, Lane End Developments Construction, has gone into administration.
The Warrington-based business operates across the North west of England and Wales.
Managing directors of insolvency firm Quantuma Jeremy Woodside and Frank Ofonagoro, both of the firm's Manchester office, have been appointed joint administrators.
The company was set up in 2016 and has built more than 1,100. It currently has live projects on 17 different sites - which aimed to create 1,700 new homes - employing 118 staff.
Current projects include delivering a 177 affordable homes scheme in Llandudno in partnership with ClwydAlyn and a 60 home scheme with Torus in Wigan.
In its last financial year, to the end of May, 2022, the company generated revenues of around £81m with a pre-tax profit of nearly £250,000.
Mr Woodside said:This is obviously a very difficult and uncertain time for the company, its employees and suppliers, and its wider stakeholders.
We're currently working alongside potential funders and senior management to assess the options available to them to restructure Lane End Developments Construction and allow it to continue to operate and deliver housing projects.
The contractor had been developing schemes with a string of housing associations, including L&Q, Jigsaw Homes and Onward, when it announced its collapse in April.
At the time, the three landlords said they were disappointed and concerned about the firm's collapse, but none were named in the list of creditors that are owed money.
The administrator's proposal shows that for the year end of 31 May 2022, Lane End had a turnover of more than £81m, but its profit for the year was less than £178,000. Tangible assets were just over £1m.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNK2 - This image shows the exterior of Warrington Youth Zone, located on Dallam Lane in Warrington, Cheshire (postcode WA2 7NG). The large, purpose-built facility is designed as a modern youth centre providing safe, supportive spaces and activities for young people from across the town.
Warrington Youth Zone forms part of the national OnSide Youth Zones network, which works in partnership with local authorities, businesses, and charities to deliver affordable access to sports, creative arts, mentoring, and wellbeing services. Buildings of this type are often highly visible, architecturally bold, and positioned as symbols of community investment and regeneration.
The colourful cladding and contemporary design distinguish the building from surrounding urban fabric, reflecting its role as a welcoming and aspirational space for young people. The setting within a redeveloping area of Warrington highlights broader efforts to address youth provision, social inclusion, and community resilience.
Photographed in daylight with surrounding roads and vehicles visible, the image is well suited to editorial use covering youth services, community infrastructure, regeneration projects, charitable organisations, modern civic architecture, and social policy in England

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNG0 - This image shows the exterior of Take a Bao, an independent street-food cafe located on Wilderspool Road in south Warrington, Cheshire (postcode WA4 1QJ). The premises occupies a corner position in a red-brick building and features modern grey-and-white fascia signage displaying the business name and bao bun logo.
Take a Bao specialises in Asian-inspired street food, particularly bao buns, reflecting the growth of small independent food businesses outside traditional city-centre locations. Cafes and takeaway outlets such as this contribute to the changing character of suburban high streets, offering contemporary food options alongside long-established local services.
The clean, modern branding contrasts with the older brick architecture of the building, illustrating the layering of new businesses within historic urban fabric. The large windows and corner entrance give the venue strong street presence, typical of small hospitality enterprises seeking visibility and footfall in neighbourhood settings.
Photographed in daylight, the image is well suited to editorial use covering independent food businesses, street food culture, suburban retail, local economies, and the evolution of high streets in towns such as Warrington.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNG8 - This image shows a painted Cheshire Cat artwork displayed on a bus stop shelter on Wilderspool Causeway in Warrington, Cheshire (postcode WA4 1AD), close to the Causeway Hotel. The illustration forms part of local visual identity and public art initiatives that bring character and humour to everyday urban infrastructure.
The Cheshire Cat is a well-known fictional character from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll, who was born in nearby Daresbury, Cheshire. Its use in public artwork across the county has become a recognisable symbol of regional identity, often appearing in murals, sculptures, and street art installations.
In this scene, the smiling cat is painted directly onto the blue bus shelter panel beneath official transport signage indicating services toward Warrington Bank Quay Station interchange. The contrast between functional transport information and playful artwork highlights efforts to humanise public spaces and improve the everyday experience of commuters.
Photographed in daylight with surrounding brick buildings and railings visible, the image is well suited to editorial use covering public art, local identity, community placemaking, transport environments, and the integration of cultural references into ordinary street scenes in towns such as Warrington

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2NCX1XM - Argos Limited, trading as Argos, is a catalogue retailer operating in the United Kingdom and Ireland, acquired by Sainsbury's supermarket chain in 2016. It was established in November 1972 and is named after the Greek city of Argos. The company trades both through physical shops and online, with 29 million yearly shop customers, and nearly a billion online visitors per annum.[2] It has also franchised overseas to countries such as China
The company was founded by Richard Tompkins who had previously established Green Shield Stamps in the United Kingdom. He came up with the idea that people could purchase goods from his Green Shield Gift House with cash rather than savings stamps. He rebranded the original Green Shield Stamps catalogue shops as Argos beginning in July 1973
In April 2016, Argos' parent Home Retail Group agreed to a £1.4 billion takeover by Sainsbury's
On 5 November 2020, Sainsbury's announced that it would close 420 Argos standalone outlets by March 2024, leaving about 100
with other measures 3,500 Sainsbury's jobs were to be cut and £600m saved.
120 standalone Argos stores permanently closed and moved into the nearest Sainsbury's store. The measures were reported to be due to changing consumer habits and the growth of online shopping.[12]
On 19 January 2023, it was announced that Argos would cease its operations in Ireland, including both its online business and its and physical shops, by 24 June 2023

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K8C9NH - The Peel Group is a British infrastructure and property investment business, based in Manchester. In 2022, its Peel Land and Property estate extends to 13 million square feet (1.2 km2) of buildings, and over 33,000 acres (13,000 ha) of land and water. Peel retains minority stakes in its former ports business and MediaCityUK.
The Trafford Centre, which opened in 1998, is widely regarded as Peel's landmark development. It was sold in 2011 to Capital Shopping Centres for £1.6 billion, making it then the most expensive acquisition in British property history. £700 million of the consideration was in shares and Peel continued to buy shares in the purchaser that went into administration, eliminating share value, in 2020.
The Peel Group held a series of other substantial investments in listed businesses including Land Securities Group plc and Pinewood Shepperton plc, and in 2022 owns 14.1% of Harworth Group plc
The Peel Group was known from 1973 to 1981 as Peel Mills (Holdings) Ltd
from 1981 to 2004 as Peel Holdings plc, and then the wider organisation took its present form.
Inspired by the Peel Tower near his native Bury, Whittaker retained the name Peel Mills Ltd for his property and cotton business.
After a period on the Manchester Stock Exchange, Peel Holdings listed on the London Stock Exchange Official List in 1983. It transferred to the Alternative Investment Market in January 2000 before the Whittaker family and Olayan Group majority shareholders bought out Peel Holdings' 6.63% minority shareholders in 2004, taking the business private.
From 1971, Whittaker acquired shares in the Manchester Ship Canal Company that unlike most other British canals had not been nationalised post-World War II.
Peel sold its cotton business for £22 million to finance the purchase of more canal shares, and in 1987 acquired control. It bought out the remaining minority shareholders in 1993

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0PRNR - In March 2017, the Department for Transport announced that Arriva, a joint venture between FirstGroup and Trenitalia, and incumbent Stagecoach had been shortlisted to bid for the next East Midlands franchise. Abellio was added in February 2018.
FirstGroup and Trenitalia pulled out of the bidding process in April 2018 to focus on the West Coast Partnership franchise. In April 2019 the franchise was awarded to Abellio, with East Midlands Railway (EMR) to take over the franchise from East Midlands Trains (EMT) on 18 August 2019 for a period of eight years
EMR operates commuter services from London St Pancras to Corby, as well as intercity services from London St Pancras along the Midland Main Line to Nottingham and Sheffield with limited extensions to Lincoln. EMR also operate the local East Midlands services and inter regional services to Liverpool and Norwich (Express service). Services from Nottingham to Liverpool Lime Street were to transfer to another operator during the life of the franchise, although following a review by the DfT, this will no longer take place
the service instead being split at Nottingham as intended but remaining with EMR. The Barton line was expected to transfer from Northern in 2019 but this was delayed until May 2021

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JJM7HA - Since 2011, B&M Waste Services have achieved carbon neutrality to the British Standards Industry (BSI)'s Publicly Available Specification (PAS) 2060. In the last 8 years, we have offset just under 20,000 tonnes CO2e by supporting projects in the UK and across the globe. These include supporting UK tree planting in schools and other locations, as well as Landfill Gas Recovery Programmes in Turkey and Indonesia. Also, we have supported a biogas project in Vietnam, renewable energy projects in India, China and Brazil as well as an Avoiding Deforestation Project in Brazil. Within the developing countries, we have supported education and welfare as well as reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This year “ our 8th year of carbon neutrality “ we will offset our carbon emissions through a UK Tree Planting and Protecting the Amazon Programme. For each tCO2e offset, one tree is planted in the UK and an additional tCO2e is offset through the Brazilian Amazon Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD) project to guarantee the emission reductions.

9th December 2017
In October 2016, Vic Charlesworth, Curator of the Warrington Masonic Museum, became aware of the existence of a Mason's grave in the cemetery at St Thomas Church, Stockton Heath, Warrington. Vic visited the grave and discovered that the memorial and gravestones were in a very poor condition
Vic asked Caroline Crook, Archivist at Warrington Masonic Museum, to research the history of William Brittain Roberts, the Mason buried in that grave, and she discovered that William was born in London, worked in Liverpool for a time, where his son was born, and then became head brewer for Greenall Whitley, living in Stockton Heath at Wilderspool House.
At the time of his death in 1909, William lived at Bleak House in Lymm, a village neighbouring Warrington. His only son, Victor George, a medical student, married May Houghton in 1914. Victor was killed in action, in the First World War, in 1918. They had no children and therefore no direct descendants. William's wife, Hilda Marian Roberts, passed away in 1936.
William was initiated into Royal Victoria Lodge No 1013 in Liverpool, on 6 February 1884, resigning in 1890. He later joined Merchants' Lodge No 241, Liverpool, (1886-92 and 1905-07), Lodge of Lights No 148, Warrington, (1887-1909) and Lathom Lodge No 2229, Southport, (1904-1909). In 1903 William was a founder member and the first senior warden of Lodge of Friendship No 2963.
Vic applied to the West Lancashire Freemasons' Charity Communities Grants Committee requesting funding to enable William's memorial and gravestone to be renovated and a grant was made earlier this year. The restoration work has now been completed and is, once again, a fitting tribute to a loyal Mason.
William's memorial is very close to the main entrance to St Thomas's Church

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JBXJMP - The Halliwell Jones Stadium is a rugby league stadium in Warrington, England, which is the home ground of the Warrington Wolves. It has also staged Challenge Cup semi-finals, the European Nations Final, the National League Grand Finals' Day, two games of the 2013 Rugby League World Cup and four games of the 2021 Rugby League World Cup. It is the 62nd largest stadium in England.
Ground was broke at the new site in 2002 and bucked the common trend of modern stadia by including terracing areas rather than being an all-seater stadium, with the South and West stands both containing terracing It also has enormous pitch dimensions of 120 m x 74 m, as requested by Warrington's head coach of the time, Paul Cullen, due to his desire to play expansive rugby. The stadium officially opened in 2004
On 3 March 2011, the club announced that the corners of the East Stand at the stadium would be filled in to create a further 2,000 spaces made up of seating and terracing for the 2012 season. The stadium capacity, set at 15,000 for the first sell-out home match against St. Helens in 2012, was increased to 15,200 and can grow to 15,693 as the club proves it can handle the bigger crowds and get extra safety certificates. The club has also announced plans to increase the stadium's capacity to around 22,000 should the need arise.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AFFFNE - Warrington Town Hall, on the north side of Sankey Street, was designed and built in 1750 by James Gibbs as an elegant Georgian mansion, known as Bank Hall. It was a home for local merchant Thomas Patten and his family.
As more traffic started to use Sankey Street, the Patten family built a high brick wall in front of the building to give them privacy. But when the council bought Bank Hall in 1870 and turned it into Warrington's new town hall, local people started to complain that they were paying rates which helped to look after the building “ but they couldn't even see it!
So Frederick Monks, one of the town's earliest councillors, came up with an idea. As a local ironmaster, he could give the town hall a fitting entrance.

A very successful packet boat service started up running from the London Bridge Inn to Manchester allowing the gentry to travel in style and comfort on the last part of there journey to Manchester, good were also shipped from the warehouse over the road, The boats were in them days pulled by horses, and unusually the horse for the packet boat were trotted along the towpath and were ridden by Bank riders who lived in what is now Thorn Marine.

Since we took over
We passed Thorn Marine in the spring of 1991 on our 25' Dawncraft Hammie on a two week trip around the Cheshire ring, we noticed it was looking a bit unloved and there was a for sale sign out side.
A few phone calls on our return home we discovered it was still for sale, but not with the agents anymore. After nearly 12 months of negotiations with the vendor and The Manchester ship Canal Company, we finally moved in on the 11th April 1992.
Over the next few years Margaret turned the business around from a fancy good shop back to a chandlery with help from Brian and Nigel when they were not working in their own careers. Brian decided in 1997 to stop paining and decorating and joined Margret working full time in the shop.

Appleton appeared in the Domesday survey as Epeltune,meaning the tun where the apples grew.
Bawming the Thorn
Each June, the village hosts the ceremony of Bawming the Thorn. The current form of the ceremony dates from the 19th century, when it was part of the village's walking day. It involved children from Appleton Thorn Primary School walking through the village and holding sports and games at the school. This now takes place at the village hall. The ceremony stopped in the 1930s, but was revived by the then headmaster, Mr Bob Jones in the early 1970s. Bawming the Thorn occurs on the Saturday nearest to Midsummer's Day.
Local schoolchildren dance around the tree in the style of a maypole chanting verses to the tune of Bonnie Dundee, with the following repeated chorus:
Up with fresh garlands this midsummer morn,
Up with red ribbons on Appleton Thorn.
Come lasses and lads to the Thorn Tree today
To bawm it and shout as ye bawm it Hurray!
Bawming means decorating “ during the ceremony the thorn tree is decorated with ribbons and garlands. According to legend, the hawthorn at Appleton Thorn grew from a cutting of the Holy Thorn at Glastonbury, which was itself said to have sprung from the staff of Joseph of Arimathea, the man who arranged for Jesus's burial after the crucifixion. Thorn Cross (HM Prison) is in Appleton Thorn, on the site formerly occupied by Royal Naval Air Station HMS Blackcap, a wartime aircrew training and aircraft repair airfield. There are a number of graves of aircrew who died at HMS Blackcap, mainly in flying accidents, in St Cross churchyard, known locally as the war graves.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2MG42KY - Carpetright Limited is one of the largest British retailers of floor coverings and beds. The company is owned by Meditor.
History
The company was established by Lord Harris of Peckham in 1988 when he opened its first shop in Canning Town. It was first listed on the London Stock Exchange in June 1993. In 1999, the company expanded through the acquisition of selected shops from Carpetland and Allied Carpets. It acquired its first operations in Continental Europe in 2002, and in 2005 acquired May's World of Carpets. In 2007, it added the Storey Carpets business, a firm based in Sunderland, which had 54 stores at the time.
Cascade Investment, LLC, the investment vehicle of Bill Gates, acquired a 3% in the company in May 2008. Carpetright expanded again with the purchase of Sleepright UK in 2008. However, in June 2011 it announced significant shop closure plans and that year posted its first loss since 1993.
It was reported on 21 March 2018 that Carpetright was struggling after issuing several profit warnings, and that it was looking at possible shop closures. On 12 April 2018, it was announced that Carpetright would close 92 stores, with a total loss of 300 jobs out of the total workforce of 2,700, as part of restructuring measures
In May 2018, Carpetright secured a £15 million loan to provide short-term working capital. In November 2019, Carpetright announced that its largest shareholder, Meditor, had agreed to purchase the company. A bid of £15.2 million was accepted by the company, amid fears it could not pay off its debt. Carpetright have estimated that the company would need around £80 million to get out of its debt problems. The company's gross debt was evaluated at £56 million
Carpetright announced the departure of chairman Bob Ivell in January 2020, as the store returned to private ownership after more than 26 years. Several non-executive directors stood down from the board because of the takeover

Daresbury was the birthplace of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland author Lewis Carroll, in All Saints' Vicarage. Daresbury has a Lewis Carroll Visitor Centre and the parish church, All Saints, a Lewis Carroll window, including an image of the Cheshire Cat.Lewis Carroll as born 27 January 1832 “ 14 January 1898.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (commonly shortened to Alice in Wonderland) is an 1865 novel by English author Lewis Carroll (the pseudonym of Charles Dodgson). It tells of a young girl named Alice, who falls through a rabbit hole into a subterranean fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. It is considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre. The tale plays with logic, giving the story lasting popularity with adults as well as with children.
The Daniell Chapel contains one of the best-known features of All Saints', the Lewis Carroll Memorial Window. To mark the centenary of his birth, Carroll enthusiasts from all over the world subscribed to a memorial fund, which resulted in a gift to All Saints' of this striking and unusual stained glass window, dedicated in 1935.
The window was designed by the stained glass artist Geoffrey Webb and depicts a Nativity scene, at which both Carroll and Alice are present. Below the Nativity scene are 5 panels illustrated with characters and scenes from Alice in Wonderland including the White Rabbit, the Lizard, the Dodo, the Caterpillar, Fish-Footman, Mad Hatter, Dormouse, March Hare, Duchess, Gryphon, Mock Turtle, Knave and Queen of Hearts. The famous Cheshire Cat can be found in the centre of the fifth panel. The 3 centre panels contain verses from the Lewis Carroll's poem ˜Christmas Greetings (From a Fairy to a Child)'.
Geoffrey Webb's mark was a spider's web that he would incorporate into the design of his windows. The web can be found in the fifth section of the Window, just above the Queen of Hearts and includes the date ˜1935'.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3XNE9 - A credit union is a member-owned nonprofit cooperative financial institution.
Credit unions may offer financial services as commercial banks such as share accounts (savings accounts), share draft accounts (cheque accounts), credit cards, credit, share term certificates (certificates of deposit), and online banking. Normally, only a member of a credit union may deposit or borrow money. In several African countries, credit unions are commonly referred to as SACCOs (Savings and Credit Co-Operatives).
Worldwide, credit union systems vary significantly in their total assets and average institution asset size, ranging from volunteer operations with a handful of members to institutions with hundreds of thousands of members and assets worth billions of US dollars. In 2018, the number of members in credit unions worldwide was 375 million, with over 100 million members having been added since 2016.
Leading up to the financial crisis of 2007“2008, commercial banks engaged in approximately five times more subprime lending relative to credit unions and were two and a half times more likely to fail during the crisis. American credit unions more than doubled lending to small businesses between 2008 and 2016, from $30 billion to $60 billion, while lending to small businesses overall during the same period declined by around $100 billion. In the US, public trust in credit unions stands at 60%, compared to 30% for big banks. Furthermore, small businesses are 80% more likely to be satisfied by a credit union than with a big bank.
Natural-person credit unions (also called retail credit unions or consumer credit unions) serve individuals, as distinguished from corporate credit unions, which serve other credit unions

Full Planning (Major)
Parish:
APPLETON
Ward:
Grappenhall
Main Location: Land to the East of Stretton Road, North of Pepper Street, Appleton Thorn
Proposal: Full Planning (Major) - Proposed Erection of 71 dwellings, public open space, landscape and associated infrastructure.
Following pressure from campaigners, the scheme was reduced again.
The revised proposal for 71 properties to make way for more green space on the site was approved by the committee on Wednesday.
It will feature 22 affordable homes and eight bungalows.
It brings an end to a long planning battle, with residents campaigning against the proposals since the developer held public consultations in 2014.
Kevin McAloon, representing the Campaign Against Ruining our Environment and Neighbourhood Development Plan groups, said residents felt a 'more acceptable' amount of green space has been provided following positive talks with Bloor.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RK9X6K - Patisserie Valerie is a chain of cafés that operates in the United Kingdom. The chain specialises in cakes, and its menu included continental breakfasts, lunches and teas and coffees. The company went into administration in January 2019, prior to a management buyout funded by Causeway Capital Partners.
According to Helene (Leni) Vermeirsch, the niece of the founders, Patisserie Valerie was first opened in 1926 on the corner of Dean Street and Old Compton Street in Soho, London by Esther van Gyseghem, born in Ostende, Belgium on 22 April 1900 and her husband Theophile (Theo) Vermeirsch. There is not known to have been a Valerie in the founders' families, but Esther came to be referred to as Madame Valerie.
The chain has expanded rapidly since 2006, growing from eight shops in 2006 to 192 as of May 2017. It opened its first shop in the Republic of Ireland in 2017, in Debenhams in Blanchardstown Centre.
In April 2014 the company announced plans to raise £33m on the London Alternative Investment Market, using the sum to reduce its debt.
Trading in the shares of Patisserie Holdings, the parent company of Patisserie Valerie, were suspended on 10 October 2018 following the discovery of potentially fraudulent accounting irregularities, which had led to the possibility that there had been a material mis-statement of the company's accounts.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K3XN94 - Rhubarb forcers are bell-shaped pots with a lidded opening at the top, used to cover rhubarb to limit photosynthesis. They encourage the plant to grow early in the season and also to produce blanched stems. The pots are placed over two- to three-year-old rhubarb crowns during winter or very early spring. Once shoots appear the lid is taken off, causing them to grow towards the light.
Around 18 inches (46 cm) high and 14 inches (36 cm) wide without the lid, they are traditionally made of terracotta but can be as simple as an upside down plastic bucket

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JHBJTN - St Wilfrid's Church is in Church Lane, Grappenhall, a village in Warrington, Cheshire, England. It is designated by Historic England as a Grade I listed building. It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester and the deanery of Great Budworth.
History
The church is Norman in origin, built probably in the earlier part of the 12th century and completed about 1120. This was a small and simple church, consisting of a nave, chancel and, possibly, an apse. The foundations of this church were discovered during the 1873“74 restoration.
A chantry chapel was added by the Boydell family in 1334 in a position where the south aisle now stands. From 1529 the church was largely rebuilt in local sandstone. The old church was demolished and a new nave, chancel, north aisle and a west tower were built. In 1539 the south aisle was added, which incorporated the Boydell chapel. The south porch was added in 1641 and at this time the west wall was strengthened. In 1833 the roof of the nave was raised to form a clerestory and in the 1850s the south aisle was further extended, and a vestry was built. There was a more substantial restoration in 1873“74 by the Lancaster architects Paley and Austin, which included the provision of new floors and roofs, at a cost of about £4,000
The church is built in red sandstone with a slate roof. Its plan consists of a west tower, a continuous nave and chancel of seven bays with a clerestory, north and south aisles, a chapel at the east end of the south aisle, a vestry and a south porch. The tower is in three stages, with a Tudor west door, and a four-light west window. It has diagonal west buttresses and square east buttresses. In the middle stage are small windows, above which are clock faces and bell openings. On the summit is a crenellated parapet. The tower is about 76 feet (23 m) high

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H0GDCP - Grappenhall is a suburban village in Warrington, Cheshire, England. It is situated along the Bridgewater Canal, and forms one of the principal settlements of Grappenhall and Thelwall civil parish. According to the 2001 UK census, the population of the entire civil parish was 9,377.
Grappenhall is mentioned in the Domesday Book with the name Gropenhale and with a valuation of five shillings.
St Wilfrid's Church has a carving of a cat on the west face of the tower. This is believed to be Lewis Carroll's inspiration for the grinning Cheshire Cat in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The church itself was first constructed in 1120, though was rebuilt 400 years later. The church was also, at a time, in the possession of the Boidelle (Boydell) family.
Along with the church, the centre of the village contains two pubs “ the Parr Arms and the Ram's Head “ and Grappenhall Hall Residential School (no longer a Residential School) and St. Wilfrid's Primary School. Bradshaw Community Primary School is located north of the village centre.
Parts of the Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes were filmed in the centre of Grappenhall. The village name appears in the title of the song Grappenhall Rag, by the Darwen singer-songwriter Bryn Haworth.
Grappenhall is home to the 25th Warrington East (St. Wilfrid's) Scout Troop. There is also a cricket ground, which is the home of Grappenhall Cricket Club.

It is designated by Historic England as a Grade I listed building. It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester and the deanery of Great Budworth
The church is Norman in origin, built probably in the earlier part of the 12th century and completed about 1120. This was a small and simple church, consisting of a nave, chancel and, possibly, an apse.[3] The foundations of this church were discovered during the 1873“74 restoration.[4]
A chantry chapel was added by the Boydell family in 1334 in a position where the south aisle now stands. From 1529 the church was largely rebuilt in local sandstone. The old church was demolished and a new nave, chancel, north aisle and a west tower were built. In 1539 the south aisle was added, which incorporated the Boydell chapel.
The south porch was added in 1641 and at this time the west wall was strengthened. In 1833 the roof of the nave was raised to form a clerestory and in the 1850s the south aisle was further extended, and a vestry was built. There was a more substantial restoration in 1873“74 by the Lancaster architects Paley and Austin, which included the provision of new floors and roofs, at a cost of about £4,000

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy EY5KET - The first public baths in the town opened on Church Street on 1 May 1851 The foundation stone for Legh Street Baths was laid in 1865 and they opened in 1866. They were originally privately owned by the Warrington Baths Company who went bankrupt. The council purchased them in 1873 and added two extra pools in 1912. This was commemorated in a foundation stone on Legh Street
The baths closed forever on 31 July 2003 and stood empty until the demolition company Anthony O'Connor & Sons Ltd from Salford moved in on Saturday 16 April 2011. They had a contract to clear the site in preparation for the construction of a new health centre. The baths consisted of four swimming pools, a steam room, laundry, and slipper baths for both ladies and men. The early boilers were typical ships' boilers (there were two of those) running on heavy oil. Phil recalls spending many a happy hour warming the oil line with a blowlamp in order to get the oil thin and warm enough before the boilers would fire up.

Near field communication (NFC) is a set of ideas and technologies that enable smartphones and other devices to establish radio communication with each other by touching them together or bringing them into proximity, typically a distance of 10 cm (3.9 in) or less. Each full NFC device can work in 3 modes: NFC target (acting like a credential), NFC initiator (as a reader) and NFC peer to peer. Most of the first business models like advertisement tags or other industrial applications have not been successful, always overtaken by another technology (3D barcodes, UHF tags, ...)
The main advantage of NFC is that NFC devices are often cloud connected. Connected credentials can be provisioned over the air unlike a standard card (Hotel or visitor applications). All connected NFC enabled smartphones can be provisioned with dedicated apps, which gives any application hundreds of millions of potential dedicated readers in opposition of the traditional dedicated infrastructure of ticket, access control or payment readers. All NFC peers can connect a third party NFC device with a server for any action or reconfiguration.

79 is the atomic number of the chemical element gold (Au).
SeventyNine is the smallest number that can't be represented as a sum of fewer than 19 fourth powers and a strictly non-palindromic number. The 22nd prime number (the next is 83).
The smallest prime number p for which the real quadratic field Q[\u221ap] has class number greater than 1 (namely 3)
79 is an emirp, because the reverse of 79, 97, is also a prime
A fortunate prime and one that is also a Gaussian prime (since it is of the form 4n + 3). Also a happy, Higgs, sexy, lucky and permutable prime.
79 is a Pillai prime, because 23! + 1 is divisible by 79, but 79 is not one more than a multiple of 23.

I've been waiting to hear your voice for too long now
One way conversations do not work somehow
Tell me how does one get your soul in touch with the one above
When one way conversations pay a price for the use of love
I tried so hard last night you would not talk to me
I live with the fear of the few with the gift
And I know what's going to be...
Sunrise was a track from Lowlife, the third New Order album. Released in May 1985 by Factory Records, Low-Life is considered to be among New Order's strongest work, displaying the moment in which the band completed its transformation from post-punk hold-overs to dance rock pioneers. The album shows New Order's increased incorporation of synthesizers and samplers, while still preserving the rock aspects of their earlier work.
The album's artwork is the only New Order release to feature photographs of the band members on its cover. By default, drummer/keyboardist Stephen Morris is on the front cover, but it actually features four photographs inside the case and a semi-transparent piece of paper with the band's name on. Owners can choose which band member is seen through the sleeve.
The original Factory release (Japan and UK) CD versions of this album are mastered with pre-emphasis.
The album was preceded by the release of the full-length version of 'The Perfect Kiss' as a single (only an edited version appears on the album). John Robie's remix of 'Sub-culture' was also released as a 12' single. Both of these extended versions eventually were included on 1987's Substance.
Fiddlers Ferry Power Station is a coal fired power station located in Cuerdley, Cheshire in North West England, which is capable of co-firing biomass. It is situated on the north bank of the River Mersey between the towns of Widnes and Warrington. Opened in 1971, the station has a generating capacity of 1,989 megawatts (MW). Since the privatisation of the Central Electricity Generating Board in 1990, the station has been operated by various companies. Since 2004, Scottish and Southern Energy plc have operated the station.
With its eight 114-metre (374 ft) high cooling towers and 200-metre (660 ft) high chimney the station is a prominent landmark and can be seen from as far away as the Peak District and the Pennines. rather than a sunrise, this is a sunset as locals will notice.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 8089409008 - 'An agaric is a type of fungal fruiting body characterized by the presence of a pileus (cap) that is clearly differentiated from the stipe (stalk), with lamellae (gills) on the underside of the pileus. 'Agaric' can also refer to a basidiomycete species characterized by an agaric-type fruiting body. An archaic usage of the word agaric meant 'tree-fungus' (after Latin agaricum)
however, that meaning was superseded by the Linnaean interpretation in 1753 when Linnaeus used the generic name Agaricus for gilled mushrooms.
Most species of agarics are classified in the Agaricales, however, this type of fruiting body is thought to have evolved several times independently, hence the Russulales, Boletales, Hymenochaetales, and several other groups of basidiomycetes also contain agaric species. Older systems of classification place all agarics in the Agaricales, and some (mostly older) sources still use 'agarics' as a common name for the Agaricales.
Contemporary sources now tend to use the term euagarics when referring only to members of the Agaricales. 'Agaric' is also sometimes used as a common name for members of the genus Agaricus, as well as for members of other genera, for example, Amanita muscaria is sometimes called 'fly agaric'.
Amanita muscaria poisoning occurs in either young children or people ingesting it to have a hallucinogenic experience. Occasionally, immature button forms have been mistaken for puffballs. Additionally, the white spots can be washed away during heavy rain and it then may seem as the edible A. caesarea.
Amanita muscaria contains a number of biologically active agents, at least one of which, muscimol, is known to be psychoactive. Ibotenic acid, a neurotoxin, serves as a prodrug to muscimol, with approximately 10-20% converting to muscimol upon ingestion. A toxic dose in adults is approximately 6 mg muscimol or 30 to 60 mg ibotenic acid
this is typically about the amount found in one cap of Amanita muscaria. However, the amount and ratio of chemical compounds per mushroom varies widely from region to region and season to season, which further confuses the issue. Spring and summer mushrooms have been reported to contain up to 10 times as much ibotenic acid and muscimol compared to autumn fruitings.
A fatal dose has been calculated at an amount of 15 caps. Deaths from this fungus A. muscaria has been reported in historical journal articles and newspaper reports
however, with modern medical treatment a fatal outcome because of the poison of this mushroom would be extremely rare. Many older books list it as 'deadly' but this is a mistake that gives the impression it is far more toxic than it actually is. The North American Mycological Association has stated there are absolutely no reliably documented fatalities in the past century. The vast majority (90% or more) of mushroom poisoning deaths are from having eaten either the greenish to yellowish death cap (A. phalloides) or perhaps even one of the several white Amanita species which are known as destroying angels.
The active constituents of this species are water soluble, and boiling and then discarding the cooking water will at least partly detoxify A. muscaria. However, drying may increase potency as the process facilitates the conversion of ibotenic acid to the more potent muscimol. According to some sources, once detoxified, the mushroom becomes edible.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 6026541669 - 'Peter Gabriel - Steam - Play this track here.
\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
'Steam' is the second single from Peter Gabriel's 1992 album, Us. It reached number 10 on the UK singles chart.
Peter Gabriel has said that the song is about a relationship in which the woman is sophisticated, bright, cultured, and knows everything about anything and that the man knows nothing about anything, except, he does know about the woman, and she doesn't know much about herself.
An alternate version of this song called 'Quiet Steam' was a B-side on the 'Digging in the Dirt' single. It is a very lo-fi take on the popular version that appeared on the album. On Secret World Live, 'Steam' is preceded for a minute or so by the 'Quiet Steam' version.
As you will probably know, Peter Brian Gabriel (born 1950) is a British singer, musician, and songwriter who rose to fame as the lead vocalist and flautist of the 1970's progressive rock group Genesis.
After leaving Genesis in 1975, Gabriel went on to a successful solo career. More recently he has focused on producing and promoting world music and pioneering digital distribution methods for music. He has also been involved in various humanitarian efforts. In 2007 Gabriel was honoured as a BMI Icon at the 57th annual BMI London Awards for his \u201cinfluence on generations of music makers.\u201d
Gabriel was also awarded the Polar Music Prize in 2009 and inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Genesis in 2010.
A Showman's road locomotive or showman's engine is a steam-powered road-going 'locomotive' designed to provide power and transport for a travelling fair or circus. Similar to other road-going traction engines, showman's engines were normally distinguished by the addition of a full-length canopy, a dynamo mounted in front of the chimney, and brightly coloured paintwork with ornate decorations. The dynamo was used to generate electricity to illuminate and power various fairground rides. Although originally the ride's motion was powered by an internal steam engine, some later rides were driven direct from the showman's engine via a belt drive.
The one shown here is the John Murphys proud Peacocks Fowler B6 traction Engine. Seen here at the 2011 Cheshire Steam fair, held at Daresbury near Warrington 9th July 2011.

Your local library is a great place to check out a better way of doing your pastimes or learning a new skill.
Learning techniques to paint, draw, photograph or film help you with some inspiration. I would have loved to see some of this ladies watercolours, or see how they have improved after getting a helping hand at the local library.
Some artists are using their skills, maybe learnt in libraries to help in the fightback over cuts. Below is the start of a compelling account from 'Artists of the Resistance', a bunch of folks who clearly think libraries are worth fighting for:
Unison, a local campaign for library and public services, concerned locals, political activists from a couple of different parties and library users previously unaware and needing no encouragement to join in.
Stalls were out, petitions offered, placards home made and more familiar were all present, children and their parents were chalking a giant \u2018Save Our Libraries\u2019 on the square floor, balloons in the air, a local author, local press, students, young, pensioners, activists, library staff, union members, authors, all ages, all backgrounds assembled and we knew we had alot of work to cover faithfully the atmosphere and the passion of this event.
More here.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 5787275251 - 'The church is dominated by its spire, 281 feet (86 m) high. It is the seventh highest in the country, the fifth highest parish church in the UK, after the St. Walburge's Church, Preston, St. James Church, Louth, St Mary Redcliffe, and St. Wulfram's Church, Grantham.
Within the church, St Ann's Chapel was founded by Thomas Massey, rector of Warrington from 1448 to 1464. It continued to belong to the Massey family until they died out in 1748. The chapel was then acquired by the Patten family who built a vault to bury members of the family, the last being Lord Winmarleigh in 1892. The Lady Chapel was founded and endowed by Sir John Boteler in 1290. He and other family members were buried in the chapel. In 1943 it became the chapel of the South Lancashire Regiment and in 1976 the chapel of The Queen's Lancashire Regiment.
The gateway to the church dates from the 18th century. It consists of two stone rusticated gate piers surmounted by a cornice and urns. Between these are two iron gates over which is a curved iron arch. To the sides are low stone side walls and small iron side gates for pedestrians. The gateway is listed Grade II. Also listed Grade II are the cobbles and the pavement leading to the gateway.

A great track I first heard on a give away CD www.amazon.com/MAGAZINE-MMMMM-TASTY-TRACKS-SAMPLER/dp/B00... .
It had some of the best bands and tracks of the 90's and by far the most brilliant Q give away CD ever.
This was only available with Q magazine. Track Listings were: Melanie Davies - Supergrass Stars - Dubstar Hammering the cramps - Sparklehorse King of New York - Fun Lovin' Criminals On Raglan Road - Sinead O'Connor I'm cracking up I need a pill - Babylon Zoo Flicker - Patti Rothberg She's everywhere - Strangelove Crusin' - D'Angelo Mugwump - Terrorvision Adrenalina - Octopus After hell - Tasmin Archer Spirit level - Cecil Private Universe - Crowded House Electra made me blind - Everclear Tomorrow is maybe - Indigo Lemonade secret drinker - Mansun Bishop's robes - Radiohead
Babylon Zoo were a British rock band of the mid-1990s from Wolverhampton, England, fronted by Jas Mann. They were best known for the song 'Spaceman', which on its release on 21 January 1996, went straight to #1 on the UK Singles Chart, selling 418,000 copies in the first week of release.
This is from an album entitled The Boy with the X-Ray Eyes. It was released in 1996, and included new-age tracks such as 'Is Your Soul for Sale?' and 'I'm Cracking Up I Need a Pill'. It debuted at no 6 on the UK Albums Chart, and reached the Top 20 in 17 countries, including Australia, New Zealand and Canada

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
Wales has been under represented in my iPod artists so far, so hopefully I can start to put that right here. 'The Bartender and the Thief' is a 1998 single by British rock band the Stereophonics. It was the first single taken from their second album Performance and Cocktails. It was released in November 1998 and reached no 3 in the UK charts.
The song, which is one of their heavier tracks, is frequently played amongst their live sets. During live performances, vocalist Kelly Jones has been known to utilise the two bars without vocals before the final chorus to reference the Motorhead song 'Ace of Spades'. The lyrics therefore are 'The ace of spades, the ace of spades. The bartender and the thief were lovers...'
Strangely, the song's full length intro only featured on the CD1 single (and in the music video), but was edited off the Performance &
Cocktails album.
------------------------
The Saracens Head was the 'brewery tap' pub next to the old Warrington Greenall's Brewery. The concern was founded by Thomas Greenall in 1762. Initially based in St Helens, the Company relocated to Warrington in 1787.
It ceased brewing in 1991 to concentrate on running pubs and hotels. Greenall's owned beer brands were brewed by Allied Breweries at their Leeds and Burton plant. Greenall's ale can still be bought in some pubs in the North West of England, although it is thankfully slowly disappearing and often only the 'Greenall's Mild' brand can be found.
For a short while I lived fairly close to the pub and enjoyed many a good guest pint in there. I was told it was a good place to pick up the odd piece of hot property, but no-one offered me anything while I was drinking there. It has rrecently been given a lick of paint and has become a JW Lees pub. When they are serving food, apparently the hand cut chips are worth a look.

Its called CaskFinder.
There is a varied menu at the Ring Of Bells and they have a four star rating from the local council. All the food is freshly prepared and as far as practical from locally sourced ingredients.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JKMWXH - A close view of two green petrol pump nozzles at Sainsbury's filling station on Church Street in Warrington town centre, Cheshire. The left nozzle is labelled Unleaded E10 and the right is marked Super Unleaded E5, showing the two principal petrol grades available to British motorists. Black rubber hoses, moulded handles and rounded advertising panels form a practical study of everyday vehicle refuelling equipment.
The pump-mounted advertisements carry Elysium Healthcare recruitment messages seeking support workers and nurses for Arbury Court and St Mary's Hospital in Warrington. A monochrome portrait, orange panel and vacancy wording turn the fuel dispenser into a local recruitment medium, combining petrol retailing with healthcare employment advertising. The image records both transport infrastructure and the use of commercial forecourts to reach drivers and potential job applicants.
E10 became the standard grade of unleaded petrol in Great Britain, while E5 remains available as a super-unleaded option for vehicles requiring or better suited to fuel with a lower ethanol content. The prominently displayed grade labels help motorists select the correct product before refuelling.
Sainsbury's Warrington petrol station forms part of the supermarket site at 100 Church Street, close to the town centre. Supermarket forecourts are familiar features of British retail and transport infrastructure, supplying petrol and diesel alongside grocery shopping and other everyday journeys.
The photograph has editorial value for petrol retailing, E10 and E5 fuel grades, supermarket filling stations, motoring expenditure, fossil fuels, road transport, healthcare recruitment, nursing vacancies, support work, mental health services and local employment in Warrington. The tight composition gives clear prominence to the fuel labels, pump hardware and recruitment campaign.

Rail union RMT launch 3 days of national strike action across the railway network.
Over 50,000 railway workers will walkout as part of 3 days of national strike action later this month, in the biggest dispute on the network since 1989.
The union will shut down the country's railway network on 21st, 23rd and 25th June, due to the inability of the rail employers to come to a negotiated settlement with RMT.
Network Rail and the train operating companies have subjected their staff to multiyear pay freezes and plan to cut thousands of jobs which will make the railways unsafe.
Despite intense talks with the rail bosses, The RMT has not been able to secure a pay proposal nor a guarantee of no compulsory redundancies.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2A9D89J - The Bridgewater Canal connects Runcorn, Manchester and Leigh, in North West England. It was commissioned by Francis Egerton, 3rd Duke of Bridgewater, to transport coal from his mines in Worsley to Manchester. It was opened in 1761 from Worsley to Manchester, and later extended from Manchester to Runcorn, and then from Worsley to Leigh.
The canal is connected to the Manchester Ship Canal via a lock at Cornbrook
to the Rochdale Canal in Manchester
to the Trent and Mersey Canal at Preston Brook, southeast of Runcorn
and to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal at Leigh. It once connected with the River Mersey at Runcorn but has since been cut off by a slip road to the Silver Jubilee Bridge.
Following the construction of the Sankey Brook Navigation, Bridgewater has been argued to be the first true canal of the Industrial Revolution in England, and it required the construction of an aqueduct to cross the River Irwell, one of the first of its kind. Its success helped inspire a period of intense canal building in Britain, known as Canal Mania. It later faced intense competition from the Liverpool and Manchester Railway and the Macclesfield Canal. Navigable throughout its history, it is one of the few canals in Britain not to have been nationalised, and remains privately owned. Pleasure craft now use the canal which forms part of the Cheshire Ring network of canals.
In September 1761, with his assistant Hugh Oldham, Brindley surveyed an extension from Longford Bridge to Hempstones, near Halton, Cheshire. He assisted in obtaining Parliamentary approval for the Bridgewater Canal Extension Act of 1762 which allowed the construction of an extension to the canal, from Manchester, to the River Mersey at Runcorn. Despite objections from the Mersey and Irwell Navigation Company, Royal assent was given on 24 March 1762. A junction, Waters Meeting, was created in Trafford Park, at which the new extension branched south through Stretford, Sale, Altrincham, Lymm and finally to Runcorn.
