With evertightening budgets some of these may haveturned to cheaper meat supplies andin–advertently been or still be usinghorsemeat.“With rising public alarm over the prevalentuse of horsemeat in retail food products andpossible health issues the government mustrequire all public services that feed vulnerablemembers of society to verify that they have notused horsemeat. This is necessary to allaypublic concern or to highlight where there mayhave been a problem.” Southport andOrmskirk Hospital NHS Trust’s cateringservices manager, Angela Wakefield, gavereassurances to patients, staff and visitorseating hospital meals.‘Our meals aremade from locallysourced meat’ sayhospital bossesShe said: “The majority of meals for patients,staff and visitors are freshly prepared by ourown chefs on site at Southport and Ormskirkhospitals.“The trust has a policy of using local foodsuppliers where possible and this includesmeat.

If everyone did the right thing wewould save millions of pounds every year andhave a country that was clean and litter–free.“We all have a role to play in keeping ourhighways clean and showing that we lovewhere we live.”The Highways Agency said it spends £10million every year cleaning up litter thrown bydrivers onto motorways and trunk roads, andpointed out this money could be used insteadFACTORY FIRES & FIREPLACES • FACTORY FIRES & FIREPLACES • FACTORY FIRES & FIREPLACES • FACTORY FIRES & FIREPLACES • FACTORY FIRES & FIREPLACES • FACTORY FIRES & FIREPLACES • FACTORY FIRES & FIREPLACESA59BridgeWE AREHEREBURSCOUGHHop VinePublic HouseA59Bridge& Car ParkBlight: Roadside rubbishfor road improvement projects.Stephen Hammond MP, the roads minister,said: “No one likes to see litter on our roads.

HURLSTON LANE, SCARISBRICK, L40 8HB.11165550000000Healthier lifestyle for me isjust a bowl of porridge oatsI’VE just about recoveredfrom my dose of flu – anddepending on how you lookat it it’s either my own fault Iever got it, or it’s mydoctor’s.Because, despite a letterfrom his surgery inviting meto have a flu jab, I contrarilydecided against it.Not because I’m afraid ofjabs, but because I knew fullwell that if I presented myselffor it I would be collared, as Iwas last year, by the practicenurse and told my bloodpressure is high, as is mycholesterol level.Last year, when thishappened (and it was thefirst time I’ve ever set foot asa patent in the HealthCentre), it resulted in‘doctor’ wanting to see me.And he confirmed thenurse’s fears about my bloodpressure and cholesterol –but to my relief said he wasnot going to put me on statinsbecause he reckoned that my‘lifestyle’ – taking longwalks with the dog – mightbe compromised if theproposed cure reduced myenergy levels, so better toleave things be.I left a happy man and goton with my life.I never heard any moreabout another visit and sowhen the invitation for a flujab arrived I thought ‘no,let’s hope they’ve forgottenabout me’. So I got flu, andhorror of horrors, just when Iwas feeling better, I got aletter from the surgery tellingme I was on their ‘at risk’list.I was a bad lad for notturning up to have mycholesterol checked, and Ishould make an appointmentto see the nurse again.Now I have no idea what myblood pressure is or shouldbe, but I have a feeling it willalways be high if checked in adoctor’s surgery – because Iam mortally afraid of hearingbad news about my health.My philosophy always hasbeen ‘if it ‘ain’t broke,don’t fix it.’And indeed a medical chapon the radio said he didn’tthink regular check–upswere a very good idea.If, for instance, hediscovered a heart murmur,there was nothing he coulddo about it, the knowledgewould worry the patient, andthat was the worst thing he orshe could do. Blissful adviceto my ears. And from whatI’ve read of late, somemedical opinion these daysseems to be swinging awayfrom the idea that cholesterolis necessarily such an awfulthing.Now don’t get me wrong. Iwould never, ever adviseanyone to be as stupid as I amprobably being in my blasédisregard for health advice.But as I am concerned, thefewer medicines and drugsthat I take the better.And if the Government isnow demanding informationon patient’s weight, drinkingand smoking habits, bloodpressure, cholesterol etc fromGPs, then so far as I amconcerned the less my GPknows about me the better.Big Brother may bewatching, but I amdetermined to give him aslittle to look at as possible.But I suppose it’s only amatter of time before I pickup the phone, and make anappointment with mynemesis.The best I can hope for is afurther interview with mydoctor, with a similaroutcome to last year.Oh, and I did amend my‘lifestyle’ a little after that.Religiously every morningnow I have a bowl of porridgeoats – because oats aresupposed to reducecholesterol.Aveling DriveThe home of stone ...Open:Mon-Fri 8am - 5pmSaturday 10am - 4pmGuineaHallLanePetrolStationroundaboutsignpostedBANKSGraniteHouseto Southport to PrestonSouthport New RoadNatural Stone TilesNatural Stone PavingBespoke Worktops1111876Unit 2 • The Old Laundry (Off Aveling Drive)Greaves Hall, Banks • Southport PR9 8BJTel: 01704 228 574www. granitehouse.co.uk • email: info@granitehouse.co.uk

Given some of the shocking stuffsat in the icy depths of my freezer, it’salmost inevitable.I can’t be the only person in Britain whoisn’t especially bothered, though –surely abottom–of–the–range spaghettibolog–neighs wouldn’t taste any bettereven if it didn’t have horsemeat in it? Aslong as it’s cheap, tastes vaguely nice anddoesn’t instigate a trip to the doctor, I reallycouldn’t care less. All of which brings me toDacia. The company is Renault’srecession–busting riposte to all those1116466credit–crunched UK motorists who want acheap new car and nothing else.I’ve yet to drive the Sandero but of all of2013’s new arrivals it’s one I’mparticularly keen to try because it looks likethe kind of car I’d enjoy.But what particularly brightened my daywhen checking out Dacia’s website wasdiscovering just what you get for your£5,995. In particular, the section on theSandero’s spec sheet entitled “Comfort andConvenience”, which reveals exactly whatthe entry–level model’s buyers will get fortheir – wait for it – comfort andconvenience. They will get winding rearwindows. They will get a heated rearwindscreen. And that’s it.Still doesn’t stop me from wanting to testdrive it, though.PARBOLD CARS52 Vauxhall Corsa Comfort Automatic 3-Dr Hatch, in aquametallic, only one owner from brand new, 64,000 miles, service history, r/c/locking, CD, PAS, e/front windows . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . £219504 Nissan Almera Tino SE Extra MPV 5 Seater, in silver metallic, halfleather & suede trim, service history, multi-change CD player, Nissan alloywheels, air conditioning, electric tilt and slide fitted sunroof. . . . . . . . £259504 Nissan Micra 1.2 S, finished in aruba blue metallic paint, full Nissanservice history, only group 2 insurance, power steering, central locking, CDPlayer, 56,000 miles, full MOT, electric front windows. . . . . . . . . . . . . £249556 Nissan Micra Initia, finished in Techno grey metallic paint.

Shaun is happy withthe situation and happy to behere.”Watson added that it wouldtake an “unbelievable offer” forhim to sell Whalley.He added: “Shaun’s pace putthe keeper under pressurewhich led to the goal onSaturday. We were a lotstronger in the second half, verysolid defensively.“Neil Byrne had a very goodgame, Smithy marshalledeverything and Andy Owen hadhis best game for me since hecame back to the club.“We looked hard to breakdown and we should have killedthe game off by the end.“We’ve had a decent run ofform since Christmas andwe’re further and further awayfrom the bottom four.
