Chips strips!<br />
Lytham St Annes’ Under 7s football team has Jon<br />
Doyle, of CHIPS Lytham St Annes, to thank for<br />
their smart kit. Jon, whose CHIPS store is on The<br />
Crescent, was only too pleased to help out with<br />
sponsorship when he was asked to help the lads<br />
and there’s no mistaking the CHIPS name on their<br />
smart green-and-white strip.<br />
The boys have been training together for the<br />
last two years and the squad is now 20-strong.<br />
Over the summer, there have been a number of<br />
tournaments along the Flyde Coast and the team<br />
has been taking part and doing extremely well.<br />
Among the squad of budding Beckhams,<br />
eight are training at the Manchester United<br />
Development Centre in Blackpool and one is at<br />
the Liverpool Development Centre.<br />
The youngsters love every minute of their<br />
time on the pitch and they really are the envy<br />
of all the kids around for having such a cool and<br />
generous sponsor.<br />

Congratulations to James Vickers, 11,<br />
of Fulwood, Preston, who scooped the<br />
incredibly rare World of Warcraft<br />

artist Dan Scott, is one of only 20 in<br />
the world. The picture was donated by<br />
BradyGames. Well done James!<br />

Young artist Stephanie Fong has a great talent,<br />
as you can see. This is a drawing of Squall<br />
Leonhart, from Final Fantasy VIII, created by<br />
the 14-year-old.<br />
Stephanie, who attends Highworth Grammar<br />
School, has shopped at CHIPS Ashford in Chapel<br />
Mews since the store opened and she’s a great<br />
RPG fan. Her favourite game of all time is Final<br />
Fantasy VII.<br />

CHIPS Longton customers have<br />
helped big-hearted franchisee<br />
Stephen Osborne boost the coffers<br />
of a Stoke on Trent hospice.<br />
Stephen was so impressed with<br />
the care given to his nan, Irene<br />
Osborne, in her final days at the<br />
Douglas Macmillan Hospice, he<br />
decided to show his gratitude by<br />
raising funds for the charity in shi<br />
store, and with his customers’ kind<br />
help he managed a grand total of<br />
£112 in memory of Irene.<br />
“Douglas Macmillan Hospice<br />
cared for my Nan and gave her<br />
dignity and comfort in 2006. The<br />
work it does is fantastic and I<br />
am delighted to help them,” said<br />
Stephen who is pictured handing<br />
the donations to Nicola Hancock, of<br />
Douglas Macmillan Hospice.<br />
