    Sir Steve drops by to see schools new equipmentPark High School has ust completed two ma or sports facility refurbishments aided by

    funding from Sport England and Awards for All.

    Sport England has provided a 25,000 grant to put towards the provision of a new high

    ew Summer Term has put the bounce back into sporting activities and

    ade a real difference to pupils, staff and community users.

    ead of the PE department Charlie Clubb said: The generous funding

    rom Sport England has provided us with an incredible improved facilitywhich has had a significant impact on the school and the local community

    and will ultimately encourage a healthier lifestyle for everyone.

    Awards for All have provided a 10,000 grant towards the refurbishment

    of our school Fitness Suite. Not only are the new facilities fantastic for

    Queens Park students the grant will enable us to carry out a community

    tness improvement programme with our partner schools and other local

    groups which will start in the summer term.

    The Redgrave Institute supported the PE department in the design of the

    oom and also provided additional equipment to help improve the space.

    Students and staff were delighted by a surprise visit from Sir Steve Redgrave in March. He calledby school to see how the outcome of the refurbishment and offer his support to KS3 students who

    were taking part in an after-school indoor rowing club run by our British Rowing Coach, Annie

    Barsoum, along with our student Sport Leaders.

    There is still a spate of thefts going on around Handbridge. Mainly bicycles are

    being stolen from the schools and college and from garages.

    z I have been working in partnership with CWaC Community Warden Neil

    Denby marking residents bicycles. We have attended the residents homes and

    supplied them with a bike passport and offered crime prevention advice. If you

    would like your bicycle marked please email me on [email protected].

    police.uk.

    z I have also been deploying the Speed Indicator Device on Eaton Road, this has

    been a joint approach with Cheshire West and Chester Community Warden Neil

    Denby. We are looking to deploy it to Overleigh Road in the next few weeks.

    z We have had a vagrant staying in the Overleigh Cemetery recently. I have

    attended with CWaC Community Warden Sharon Marshall to speak to the male

    and he has now been removed and given a place to stay out of the area.

    z I have had reports of drug use down at the river with drug paraphernalia

    littered around, I am currently working with the council on this matter and work

    to clear this up is in the process.

    I WAS asked recently if I would write

    about the older woman and treatmentsthat are available to her.

    Where to start... I have just looked throughmy latest professional beauty magazineadvertising all the latest machines andtreatments, most of which are endorsed bya famous celebrity and with a price tag tomatch, promising to treat every possibleskin and body problem and make you look20 years old again!

    Ageing, as we know, is a natural andinevitable process and some people age

    faster than others due to many factors suchas lifestyle, genes, health, stress, the sunand diet. Later in life your past can catchyou up showing itself in lines and wrinklesand brown pigmented sun damage marks.Sagging skin is another bit of bad news.Now that were all completely depressed,lets look at the good news of how you canimprove your appearance and make youlook really good for your age.

    ad deportment can be very ageing.When standing or walking squeeze yourmuscles in your bottom and immediatelyyou will ind your stomach lattens and yourshoulders go back, lift your chin up and youwill already look taller and younger!

    The sagging jaw line or jowls is a commoncry for help at our clinic. At home, or evenin the car waiting at the trafic lights,performing facial exercises is great! I call

    it The AEIOU exercise. You repeatedlyaccentuate the letter A (about 15 times)then the letter E and so on. At the letter U

    say it like an ooo sound bringing forwardyour lower jaw. Your jaw may be a little stifffor a few days, but that will wear off in time

    and the tighter jaw line will start to showafter about 2 weeks of daily facial exercises!

    n the clinic we have our wonderfulGenie facial toning machine. It is the mostpowerful and fastest machine on the markettoning the whole face in only 10 minutes.The Genie lifts and tones the facial muscles,in particular around the eye area and thejowls. Treatment is twice weekly for 5weeks and then every two to four weeks for

    A BUTCHERS BLOGwith Bruce Edge, from Ernest W.Edge & Son Butchers, Handbridge

    SAUSAGES!WITH all the recent interest in processed foods generated by thehorsemeat scandal, I thought I would lift the mystery of what makes adecent sausage.

    Rule No.1 you cannot make a great sausage without putting great

    ingredients into it. In years gone by the sausage was a way of using up

    leftovers to avoid waste. This still continues today to some degree de-

    pending on where you buy your sausages from! Personally, I think that

    you can tell the quality of your butcher by the sausages he makes. We

    take great pride in our sausages, putting only the best quality shoulder

    and bellies of pork into them. We remove all rind, bone and any excess

    fat, which is why there is no fat left at the bottom of the grill tray. Asausage needs to be juicy and succulent but not fatty.

    Today the Umble Sausage is a gourmet product and should contain

    only quality meat that any consumer would recognise as meat. There

    are endless lists of ingredients that can be used and there is plenty

    of scope to be innovative. James, our sausage maker enjoys blending

    complimentary ingredients together when searching for new sausage

    recipes.

    I think the perfect percentage of meat in a sausage is 75-80%, the

    legal minimum requirement being 65%. If you see someone advertis-

    ing 90% I would suggest that it is seasoned meat in a skin rather than a

    sausage. To be juicy and succulent the sausage must contain the right

    amounts of lean meat and fat, rusk (breadcrumb) and seasoning. If

    the sausage contains for example, sage, red onion and garlic like one of

    our sausages then these added ingredients will affect the percentage

    of meat in the sausage. No doubt everyone will have a style of sausage

    that they favour.

    Last but not least is the sausage skin that the meat is illed into.

    Today, more and more butchers and all processors are using collagen

    skins for their sausages. These are in essence edible plastic. They are

    very convenient in that you can put a 100 yards spool on a sausage

    iller and ill it out in seconds with no knots or breaks in the skin. This

    is ine, but the result is that these skins are very chewy. We use only

    natural sheep or hog skins. The sheep skins are smaller in diameter

    and are suitable for thin sausages. The hog skins are suitable for thick,

    chunky sausages. These skins are only approximately 30 yards long

    and far more time consuming to separate, use and ill out but are a

    totally superior product. They also add approximately 50pence to a

    pound of sausages. This is a lot of money but I strongly feel that if you

    are going to make a gourmet product you cannot skimp on any of the

    ingredients.

    I occasionally get asked whether we make our own sausages in the

    shop. For the record we always have made our own sausages and we

    always will. If you buy in a product like this you have no control over

    how it was prepared, the ingredients used and even the hygiene stand-

    ards of the person making it. Enough said!

    This months recipe is a very

    straightforward and tastysausage casserole.

    Sausage Casserole - Serves 4

    Ingredients

    4 large potatoes

    4 carrots

    8 good-quality sausages

    2 tbsp olive oil

    1 onion, chopped

    1 garlic clove, crushed

    1 tsp paprika400g can chopped tomatoes

    400ml vegetable stock

    1-2 bay leaves

    Method

    1. Turn the oven to 180C/fan160C/

    gas 4. Peel the potatoes and carefully cut

    them in half, then into quarters. Peel the

    carrots and cut each carrot into about 4

    or 5 even pieces.

    2. Prick the sausages all over with a

    fork this helps the fat to run out of thesausages, so that they dont split open as

    they cook. Heat the olive oil in a heavy-

    based casserole and fry the sausages,

    turning often, until lightly golden all

    over this should take about 10 minutes.

    Remove the sausages from the pan and

    put them on a plate.

    3. Add the chopped onion to the cas-

    serole (there will still be some oil in the

    pan from the sausages) and continue to

    cook over a low heat for 5-10 minutes,

    until the onion is slightly soft. Add thegarlic and paprika and cook for another

    minute.

    4. Add the chopped potatoes and carrots

    and stir everything around in the cas-

    serole so that the vegetables are coated

    with the oil.

    5. Add the tomatoes and stock (to

    measure the stock, you can use the empty

    tomato can illed up, it will hold 400ml

    of stock) and the bay leaves. Bring to a

    simmer (so its just bubbling gently).

    Return the sausages to the casserole.6. Using your oven gloves, carefully put

    the casserole into the oven. Cook for 45

    minutes, until the potatoes are cooked

    through, and serve.

    G young men and one young woman from

    the atholic High chool chose to test their

    career aspirations by taking up the offer of a

    residential course in Halton Barracks, the army

    training camp or the Lancashire Regiment.

    The barracks which clearly saw service in the

    WW2, is located on a hill between the River

    Lune and the less romantic M6, permitting keen

    east win s to cut a swathe.

    Accommodation was basic but clean, regulation

    sheets with two scratchy blankets on a steel-

    ramed bunk bed, with shared washing acilities

    outside the dormitory.

    They were up at 6.30am with breakfast at 7.30,

    room inspection at 8.15 and training at 9.

    During the week the students were shown how

    to cope in certain specific situations such as,

    survival skills, heart start, survival under enemy

    re, how to stake out the enemy, operation night

    owl where students under cover of darkness

    had to rescue some nuclear materials from

    under the nose o the enemy and working in a

    team to get over an assault course. The course

    was topped and tailed by a 1 mile run by which

    the students could determine an improvement in

    tness levels.

    All the trainers had seen service on the

    battle eld whether in Bosnia, A ghanistan or Iraqand yet showed such humility.

    Will Carter when challenged by the PT trainer to

    race over a course of one and a half miles, beat

    him by eight seconds. In contrast when staking

    out the enemy under camouflage, Marley put his

    hand up to ask if he could go to the toilet, which

    in e ect meant that the team were all blown up

    None of the students who went wanted to be

    a soldier prior to this and apart from Rhys and

    allum who would like to oin the A , they stilldont. But what a learning experience it has

    proved to be.
