On Friday 29 January the Year 7 students at Driffield School took part in their first Discovery Day of the year.

The day focused on the independent learning skills of organisation, individuality, problem solving and challenge seeking.

The theme of the day was preparing for a zombie apocalypse and all the activities were devised and prepared by the Performing Arts, Science and English departments.

The day involved workshops involving finding a remedy for a zombie bite, science experiments (including the screaming jelly baby) and the composition of a zombie film soundtrack.

Many students and staff bought into the spirit of the day by dressing up as zombies or zombie hunters.

On Monday the 8th of February Driffield School held its second Year 7 Discovery Day. Students took on the role of detectives in a Cluedo-themed day organised by the Modern & Foreign Languages, Ethics and Maths departments.

The day was centred on the creative learning skills of students. This involved a series of sessions designed around problem solving, challenge seeking, imagination and curiosity. Students were invited to solve a murder and had to examine evidence, motives and accounts of witnesses in order to come to and justify logical conclusions. The day was well received by students.

The next discovery day will happen on Tuesday 1 Match and will involve Art and Design Technology and History departments.

Elkie Brooks should need no introduction, having become a household name back in the seventies with hits such as “Pearl’s A Singer.” Here, in an exclusive interview with “Pulse” author Steve Rudd, the legendary vocalist reflects on her fifty-year career in the run-up to an eagerly-anticipated appearance at Bridlington Spa as part of her latest tour...

Q. So how has 2016 treated you so far, Elkie?

A. Fine, thank you. It’s beautiful here where I live in North Devon. I think I might go out and have a walk later on. I did three or four gigs in January, and I’ve just done a couple in February, and we’re doing very good business. I’ve just been to Gateshead, and we had a really good turn-out... 950 people this year. So the numbers are going up! It’s all looking very, very good.

Q. How does it feel to be touring again?

A. I’ve not stopped working for many, many years. I did 25 shows last year, 30 the year before, and so it goes on. I’ll probably be doing roughly the same this year.

I have an album coming out in November all being well. My eldest son (Jay) and I have been working on it for quite a few years now. It’s our fourth album together.

Q. How many songs have you written for it so far, and do you have a working title for the album?

A. No, we don’t have a working title, and there aren’t that many home-grown songs. There are always one or two that Jay and I have written between us, but I’m doing quite a few cover versions, which I’ll keep to myself for the time being! I’ve got a few really, really fabulous guests on there as well, who have contributed to the writing of the album, and also the playing.

Q. Back onto the subject of touring – it must be extremely gratifying to consistently command full-houses up and down the country.

A. The thing is, people know that when they come and see me, I will be giving my all. I give 100% – and I want that back from my audience as well! If an artist isn’t giving all, you can’t expect all back, can you? I do my best, and I always do all the hits.

Many, many years ago, I remember doing a tour when I just did all the songs from the latest album that no one had really got round to listening to. It hadn’t really been promoted that well, and I made a bit of a mistake.

Now I always try and put a lot of the hits into the show. In fact, I do all of them! I’m on stage for nearly two hours, with a short break in between sets, so I try and give audiences what they pay good money to hear.

Q. Of all the songs you’ve performed over the years, is there any one song in particular that you enjoy performing the most?

A. It varies, to be honest. Most artists will probably tell you the same thing. It can get very, very boring after many years of singing the same song. You have to appreciate that I’ve been singing “Pearl’s A Singer” for almost forty years! 1977 it was released – on my birthday!

It’s difficult to say which one is my overall favourite. I try to rearrange a lot of the songs as the years go on, which makes it interesting for me and the band as well. The audience, too! I do love “Don’t Cry Out Loud” – I never tire of that; it’s a great song. I also really like “Warm and Tender Love.”

Q. What memories do you have of the day that you got up on stage at the Manchester Palace Theatre when you were fifteen? If you knew then what you know now, what advice would you have given yourself as you teetered on the cusp of being “discovered”?

A. To be honest, it was a difficult time for me, because when I did actually get into the business, and make a couple of records, I was doing a lot of the clubs up north, which I didn’t particularly like doing, having to put up with “house bands” that couldn’t play my music very well! I was doing a lot of songs that I was persuaded to sing by my management at the time... songs that didn’t really suit me.

Some of them were from shows, and I’m not a person that likes musicals very much. I was so fed up at the time that I was thinking of doing something completely different. If you’re not enjoying your job, my advice would be, “Go and do something else!” The music business is a very, very hard business. It takes a lot to persevere.

Deep down, I knew I had a good technical ability, and I knew I could sing really, really well. I just hadn’t been given the chance to show what I could do. It wasn’t until I met a guy called Pete Gage that I found some sense of musical direction. We later got married, and he had the idea of forming a band called Dada in 1969.

Later on, it became Vinegar Joe with Robert Palmer. Until that point, I’d just been floundering around the business, not going anywhere. I might have been somewhere very different had I not persevered. A friend I went to school with, Maxine, was very religious, a Jewish girl from an orthodox family. My family, in contrast, was very secular. Maxine wanted to go to Israel, to live and work on a kibbutz for a bit, and then join the army. It all sounded rather romantic at 17! But I’m quite glad that I didn’t do that!

Q. Did you find writing your autobiography, “Finding My Voice,” to be a cathartic process?

A. Not really, because that wasn’t the reason I wrote it. I wrote it in case somebody else was going to come out with something that ended up being rather fictional! I did it because that was the thing to do. I just put down what I thought, and how it really was.

Q. Finally, looking beyond your latest tour and new album, what does the rest of 2016 hold in store for you?

A. It’s going to be a very, very busy year in general. I’m actually about to phone Robert Palmer’s mum, Anne, and ask her if she’d like to come to the show in Bridlington. Whenever we’re in York, or around that area, we like to try and see each other. I have such fond memories of Vinegar Joe and staying at Robert’s parents’ place when they had a B&B!

Yorkshire County Cricket Club are reporting, for the first time since 2009, a profit after tax of £368k for the year.

There was an increase in total income of £8.4m (2014 – £7.3m), which represents a 14 per cent growth on the previous year.

Income from the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) increased to £2.4m from £2.2m, reflecting increased receipts due to our development of England players and their representation in the national side.

Overall costs slightly increased in line with sales to £7.8m (2014 - £6.8m).

The success of our international players’ meant that the annual players’ wage bill, which rose by £358k including the cost of maintaining a larger squad to cover players representing England.

During the year, the club received a grant of £700k from the ECB to help part fund the installation of new floodlights at a cost of £1.5m.

With Colin Graves’s appointment as ECB chairman in March 2015, it meant that the club had to refinance his loans so that the club would be financially independent from him.

As a result, the club has refinanced some of its debt.

The Graves family trusts, which are entirely independent from Colin Graves in his personal capacity, have advanced loans of £18.9m, which has allowed the previous loans from Mr Graves, the Graves family trusts and Leeds City Council to be repaid.

Leeds City Council, after reviewing the actual cost of interest that the Council had incurred in servicing the debt, which demonstrated that the cost to the Council of the loan had been fully met by the club, accepted £6.5m in settlement of the £7.4m capital outstanding on the loan.

As a result of the refinancing, we reduced the club’s annual interest bill by £300k per year and there are no scheduled capital repayments until 2019.

Paul Hudson, director of finance, said: “We have made further progress in 2015 and to report an annual profit for the first time since 2009 is a significant step forward.

“It is gratifying that turnover in all areas has increased consistently over the past three years and we expect this trend to continue in 2016.

“The successful completion of the club’s refinancing was a watershed and we are confident that the existing debt is now at a manageable level.

"The club is in a stronger financial position than it has been at any time in recent years.”

The Annual General Meeting of members will be held in the East Stand Long Room, Headingley Cricket Ground on Saturday March 26 2015 at 10am.

Yorkshire County Cricket Club are on yet another collision course with their controversial former batsman Geoffrey Boycott.

In echoes of the Seventies and Eighties, when the respective parties were often at loggerheads, a fresh dispute is threatening disharmony behind the scenes.

Boycott, 75, wants to join the club’s board and has gathered the necessary 30 nominations from the club’s membership to put his name forward for election at the annual general meeting this month.

He feels that “not enough thought” is being given to the members and says Yorkshire – circa £22m in debt – need to “start living within our means”.

Yorkshire say members’ considerations are paramount, that there is a clear plan in place to tackle the debt, and that it is their “unanimous view” that it would be “destabilising” and “not in the best interests of the club” for Boycott to be elected on to the board.

In literature that will be sent to members today ahead of the AGM on March 26, when new board appointments will be announced after a postal vote, chairman Steve Denison outlines three reasons why Yorkshire do not want Boycott on the board and in a position to influence strategy:

• Yorkshire have won back-to-back County Championships for the first time in nearly 50 years under director of cricket Martyn Moxon and first-team coach Jason Gillespie and it would be “counter-productive to disrupt things now”.

• There is a clear dividing line between the board’s responsibilities and those of the management, and that “blurring of this operational divide” has caused problems in the past.

• The club have “moved on” from Boycott, who previously served on the board from 2007-2012 and as president from 2012-2013, adopting a “new structure, new relationships and new modes of working”.

However, Denison goes on to praise Boycott for promoting the club in his role as a media pundit, for which Yorkshire are “greatly in his debt”.

To that effect, Yorkshire have instead offered Boycott a role as their first “global ambassador”, a position they say would “carry significant prestige and influence”.

Boycott, who was famously sacked by the club as a player only to be dramatically reinstated by his supporters, has historically enjoyed the backing of the members as one of the greatest players in the club’s history.

He has also given his side of the argument in the AGM literature and bases his candidacy squarely on championing members’ interests, calling them “the lifeblood of the club” and highlighting three key areas of concern to him:

• The size of the membership – “When I was playing in the Seventiess, our membership was over 13,000,” he says. “Now it is below 5,000. All of us need to make a big effort to increase the numbers.”

• The club’s finances – “YCCC has to start living within our means and finding ways to pay back some of the money the club has borrowed.

For many years, Yorkshire cricket has been beholden and lucky that Colin Graves (former Yorkshire chairman and current ECB chairman) was prepared to loan YCCC money.

The club has become too dependent on his generosity and we need to start paying him back.”

• The need for members to be moved from the East Stand to the new Football Stand, which is being redeveloped for 2019, so they can enjoy a better view “behind the wickets”, with a new members’ area also providing more opportunities for functions, conferences, and so on.

Yorkshire say their stance on Boycott has the full support of their principal lender, the Graves family trusts, which are independent of Colin Graves and have provided loans of £18.9m.

Theoretically, a proposed rule change at the AGM would give the Graves family trusts power of veto over board appointments, although whether that would be practically enforced remains to be seen.

Yorkshire say they have nothing against Boycott, but want a more diverse board going forward, both in terms of gender and business skills, with attention now focusing on the redevelopment of the Football Stand, which is earmarked for completion in 2019 to help guarantee Headingley’s international future.

The club is recommending that three people are elected to the board this time – chief executive Mark Arthur, Robin Smith, who is up for re-election, and Sir Gary Verity, chief executive of Welcome to Yorkshire.

In addition to Smith and Denison, the existing board comprises Moxon and Stephen Willis, with club rules permitting up to eight board members.

Yorkshire are also recommending that former player and umpire John Hampshire be appointed in succession to outgoing president Dickie Bird.

Take a fillet of fish, a rising souffle mix in a pomegranate salad and a dash of charm and – voila – you have the perfect dish, an evening with James Martin.

Yep, the boy from Malton did good in his first live tour. It was a sell-out success in Bridlington where more than a 1,000 people came to see their local food hero.

He did what Paul Hollywood failed to do – sell out the Royal Hall. The Great British Bake Off star played to 500 fans – and Martin made sure Hollywood knew who was the star.

He took pictures of his audience and then texted the photos to the celebrity baker. Hollywood’s response was unrepeatable.

The appetite for cookery programmes and its presenters are still there – what Martin has that Hollywood has not are connections – local ones.

Born in a village in Ryedale, he attended local schools before attending what was then Scarborough Technical College to study catering.

He had every praise for his lecturers for teaching him straightforward culinary skills. At age 17 he headed for London to work for Marco Pierre White.

He has appeared on Ready Steady Cook and presents Home Comforts. His decision to quit Saturday Kitchen after 10 years caused a melt down from fans begging him to stay.

He did talk about that – but only to say what he already has: he’s quitting because he wants Saturday mornings to himself – not because of a dodgy sink.

But it is not just his local connections that endear him to us – Martin has natural charm. There’s no flirting with the flambe, crudeness with the crudites – just old-fashioned empathy. He is down to earth.

He is aware he is dishy – the word is used on some of his merchandise – but there is not a soupcon of arrogance about Martin just spoonfuls, large, of self-effacing humour.

There have been few salacious stories about him and women – and the man loves his mum who was in the audience with his sister (the butt of an hilarious story about olive stones).

Martin also keeps it real – he cooked up nine dishes altogether – no flair, no finesse – which I am sure he has but this was not a Michelin-starred occasion – but they looked good enough to eat.

The blow-torched mackerel, salmon mousse, garlic butter chicken and Swiss roll were put together in minutes.

Martin engaged with his audience in a question and answer session – but more just by chatting to them – and thanking them for years of support.

His finale – won’t spoil it in case you are going – but it was wonderfully funny and in keeping with his have-ago personality.

Racing pundit Tony McCormick from.irishbigracetrends.com presents his weekly column, this week Tony looks at the start of the Cheltenham Festival Preview Nights.

The Exeter Cheltenham Preview Evening took place on Friday, February 26, after racing at the course. Hosted by commentator Richard Hoiles, it featured Paul Nicholls’ assistant trainer Harry Derham, jockey Nick Schofield plus trainers Philip Hobbs and David Pipe.

Derham stated off by saying their stables’ main hopes are with the four-year-olds in the Triumph and Fred Winter saying the stable had nine winners in the last week and the horses are looking well.

Surprisingly Hobbs said he has have very few horses for the Grade One conditions which makes life very difficult, David Pipe said they don’t have many favourites, if any, but hopefully they can get some nice priced winners. 

As far as day one was concerned, the main talk was of the opening race, the Supreme Novices’ and the red hot favourite, the Willie Mullins-trained Min. Schofield said there is no better jockey to help him settle than Ruby Walsh but he thought there was plenty of hype around Min though and they are hoping Nico de Bonville can bring his ‘A’ game on day one with Altior and Vaniteux. 

Trainer Pipe said the Supreme is the only race Moon Racer – winner of last year’s Bumper, is entered in and if they can get him there in his best form then he could be the one to give Min a race 

Derham said he knew Johnny Burke and he really likes Supasundae and he’s 14/1, going on to say he’d be keen to take Min on as he could easily get lit up. 

As for the Arkle, the majority of the panel simply said Douvan wouldn’t get beat.

Schofield had niggling doubts about Annie Power’s participation in the Champion Hurdle, saying she should run in the Mares’ Hurdle.

Over at the Limerick Strand Hotel Preview Night, jockey Davy Russell said Min is too keen during a race and said Tombstone was the most likely winner of the Supreme Novices, while saying Douvan and Limini were his best bets of the meeting.

David Mullins, speaking on the Goat Grill preview night in Dublin, said Min was the ‘real deal’, while he thinks Henry de Bromhead’s Sizing Europe could ‘serve it up’ to Douvan in the Arkle.

As far as the best bets of the meeting around the previews, David Pipe said his own Doctor Harper would win in whichever race he turns up in.

Schofield was all for Connectable, each way, while Hobbs put up Balthazar King, but only on good ground and Derham was all for Aux Ptit Soins and Qualando in the Martin Pipe.

Russell said Limini is ‘nailed on’, while Adrian Hesketh said Yanworth in the Neptune was his bet of the meeting, while Kate Harrington was very ‘bullish’ on the chances of Rock The World.

Racing starts at 12.30pm with the Derwent and Staintondale Hunt members’ race which has received nine entries.

Some classy types could go to post, such as Boy In Bangkok, Lucky Cody and Ross Na Righ, however as a result of previous wins they carry some heavy penalties and may look for alternative races where they are double entered.

This race could provide the perfect opportunity for Amy Collier to open her account on Tasheba.

Only in her first season, Amy has partnered Tasheba twice, finishing second last time out and this would be a great result in front of a home crowd.

Race two is the Yorkshire Area Point-to-Point Club Members race with penalties applied for previous wins.

Shantou Prince will take all the beating, having won all of his starts in UK point-to-points and he continues to look progressive.

Boy in Bangkok could choose this race over the hunt race due to the reduced weight and could lay down the challenge with Mr Chippy another in the mix.

The Men’s Open looks to be a very hot affair.

Klepht won a hunter chase on his seasonal debut, Harris is a new recruit to point-to-pointing and has had some good form under rules before tailing off towards the end of last year and if rejuvenated, could be a force to be reckoned with.

Monsieur Jourdain was another to win on his seasonal debut, “Fingers crossed he runs as well as the horses did at Askham Bryan as he continues his preparation for another crack at the Grimthorpe Gold Cup,” said his rider, William Easterby.

Six A Side will surely be in the mix, but this will be his toughest test yet.

Drom contests the Ladies Open and will be the likely winner provided that the ground is good enough for him.

The biggest challenge could come from Lincolnshire raider His Excellency, who, like Drom, finished second on his most recent start.

Young Hurricane is another who will prefer better ground and can improve from his run at Alnwick at the end of January.

The restricted races have seen a resurgence in the Yorkshire area this season and 17 entries have been made.

Barton Jubilee went very close on this course last year and could go well on his seasonal debut.

Asheanymoney has been running well this season and was fancied to go well at the Sinnington meeting where he finished fourth so it would be no surprise to see him in the frame.

Five Piers could make his UK debut, having won his maiden in Ireland and no doubt we will find out a bit more about him here.

The one they will all have to beat is Nobuttaboy who won his maiden on his racing debut and gained more experience when coming second to Things Change in the Sinnington hunt race, Things Change has since gone on to win again franking the form.

The Open Maiden has received 28 entries and could be split on the day if the declarations come forward.

Nicky Tinkler has a good reputation at this course with horses by Desideratum, the sire having had three winners in one day here a couple of years ago and Desimadonna represents the yard here.

Grove Mountain made a good debut to finish fourth at Sheriff Hutton in the short maiden and can benefit from the experience to go closer here.

Zandino was another to run well at Sinnington, beaten by Bedford Forrest who has since won again and could be the one to beat for local trainer Tracey Corrigan.

The postcode for satellite navigation is YO13 9QU and admission is £10 per person. There will be homemade refreshments on sale.

A funeral service was held at the East Riding Crematorium on Monday February 22, for Mrs Violet May Wilson who died at Riverhead Hall Residential Care Home on the February 5. She was aged 96 years.

The service was conducted by Father David White and the organist was Mr Steven Westaway.

Violet was born in 1919 at Kirkby in Ashfield, near Nottingham. She had three sisters and two brothers. She attended junior and senior schools in Kirkby. She really enjoyed her school days and did really well. At the outbreak of the World War Two she joined the WAAF’s. Due to her English and Arithmetic skills from school she was selected to go for training as a Pay Accountant so had the further education she missed in earlier years.

She was posted to RAF Leuchars in Scotland where she met her husband-to-be, James (Jimmy) Wilson, who was already working in the Pay Accounts section there. They married in Edinburgh in 1942. After the war she was demobilised from the WAAF and her husband stayed in the RAF. They went on to have two children, Tony and Ian. Jimmy was posted to Egypt in 1949 and Violet and Tony followed him out there. After two years they returned to the UK. In 1963 he was posted to Australia (near Adelaide) and Violet and Ian went with him, although Tony had already joined the RAF himself and was unable to go. She really enjoyed her time there and obtained a job as a receptionist at a local GP surgery. She was also involved in the accounts and bookkeeping. After two years they returned to the UK.

Jimmy left the RAF in 1968 and they settled in Doncaster. Violet worked at the Maternity Unit at Doncaster Royal Infirmary. In 1972 they went out to Cyprus to see Tony and Mary and their first grandchild, Alistair.

They were planning for their retirement when in late 1975 Jimmy was diagnosed with lung cancer. He sadly died in June 1976, at the age of 54.

Violet tried to get on with her life as much as possible and carried on working at Doncaster Royal Infirmary until her retirement at 60. She was also a volunteer for Age Concern in Doncaster for over 25 years and a member of WAAF Association for many years.

Since retirement she has been with her family on holiday to the Caribbean and Florida as well as visiting Tony and his family in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, several times during the 80s. She had lots of friends in Doncaster and went on several holidays with her closest ones.

After a number of mobility problems she moved into Riverhead Hall Residential Care home in Driffield in February 2012 to be close to her family.

Family mourners: June and David Ledger (sister and brother in law), Tony and Mary Wilson (son and daughter in law), Ian and Sue Wilson (son and daughter in law), James and Alistair Wilson (grandsons), Lynsay Wilson and Mario Nowak (granddaughter and fiance), Kieran Wilson (great grandson).

Others present: Shirley Dowling, Bernard Watts, Andy and Teresa Coleman, Betty Jenkinson, Derek and Anne Steeper, Pam and Gary Breedon, Linda and Colin Mclay, Violet Basford, Peter and Bradley Coleman and Kirsty Duffield also rep Riverhead Nursing Home.

After almost a year out of action, Emily Carver is looking forward to running at two national competitions in the space of two weeks.

Injury forced the 15-year-old to take her to take an extended break for 12 months, but she is back on track now and heads to the English Schools Cross Country Championships this weekend.

She will be representing Humberside at Wollaton Park in Nottingham, after finishing fifth in the regional qualifiers at Longcroft School.

And next weekend, Carver, who lives in Burton Fleming, will be off to Birmingham, where she will be on county duty again at the UK Inter Counties Championships, where she will compete in the under-15s age group.

Carver, who trains with Bridlington Road Runners, qualified for both championships last year too but had to withdraw because of her injury troubles.

Despite the frustrations of having to take a year off, she returned to form immediately and finished second in the Humberside Cross Country Championships, over a 4.5km route at Quibbell Park in Scunthorpe, in January, which booked her spot for the Birmingham event.

The Driffield School pupil has also taken 20 seconds off her times at the Sewerby Parkrun 5km since returning to the weekly event at the start of the year.

Last month she clocked an impressive 21:22 to finish 14th at Sewerby, and last Saturday she finished in 21:40

Dad Howard said: “She was always the fastest girl in races at Wold Newton School, but as she got older she loved running longer distances, and she has really done well working with coaches Leigh Fulton and Shaun Pickering.”

She has experience of being involved in the Inter Counties Championships in Birmingham, having run there in March 2014, completing the shorter 3km course in 14:19 for 272th place.

Driffield RUFC will continue to blood its emerging talent between now and the end of the of the 2015/16 campaign.

Teenagers Will Brigham, Will Burns, Cameron MacPhee and Harry Sheader have all made their 1st XV debuts this season, with Ben Dinsdale in line to follow suit on Saturday when the Woldsmen travel to Percy Park.

And with the club’s North One East status all-but secured for another season, following a run of six victories from their last seven games, director of rugby Patrick Burdass says that he plans to keep giving the club’s young players a chance.

“Now that we’re not too worried about the issue of relegation, the pressure is off a little bit and that does give us the freedom to blood one or two of the younger guys who are coming through,” Burdass said.

“If we were scrapping for points at the bottom of the league, things may be a bit different, but that’s not to say that we don’t have confidence in these lads.

“They are being selected on merit and are playing because they are good enough, I’ve every confidence in every single one of them.

“They need 1st XV experience in order to learn the game, and develop as players.”

Burdass paid tribute to the club’s junior set-up, which he feels is doing an excellent job as the conveyor belt of talent continues to feed the Woldsmen’s senior sides.

“I worked out this week that just short of 20 players have come through from the under-17s and played for either the 1st or 2nd XV in the last two years,” he added.

“This is fantastic for us, and is a testament to the fine work the junior coaches are doing.

“We’ve always been a club that gives the young lads a chance and we’re reaping the benefits now.”

Brigham has become an established member of the 1st XV squad, making the fly-half position his own in the second half of the season, while MacPhee, Burns and Sheader have also enjoyed a taste of the action.

Sheader is in the squad for Saturday’s trip to Percy Park, while Dinsdale starts on the wing in what will be his debut for the club’s senior side.

Driffield under-15s took revenge for a defeat earlier in the season when they claimed a 50-29 home win over Malton & Norton.

The visitors only travelled with a squad of 13, so their hosts loaned them one player in each half to even up the numbers at 14-a-side.

Shortly after kick-off, Walkington ran in an early try after the young Woldsmen moved the ball swiftly down the back line, his turn of pace taking the defence by surprise and allowing him to cruise over the line.

A few minutes later the same player punished a mistake from Malton by scooping the ball up inside his own half and speeding down the left wing to score a second, this time converted by Napier.

The visitors started fighting back and enjoyed some possession but lacked invention.

A loose ball was effectively cleaned up by Driffield, who built a confident, well executed attack.

The ball was moved out to Jack Schwer on the left wing who made a decent break before then passing and when the ball eventually ended up in Walkington’s hands on the right flank he scored his hat-trick try, converted by Napier.

Malton responded with some good handling and grabbed a well-deserved try on the right wing at the 20-minute mark bringing the score to 19-5.

The next score went to Driffield with Randerson receiving the ball just inside the Malton half.

The away defence failed to stop his determined run and he went under the posts to make the conversion easy for Napier.

Carr then caught the high ball from the kick-off and Walkington set off at speed into the Malton half.

He drew the defence before offloading to Tonks, who ran through four defenders to power over the whitewash.

The away side made a concerted effort to get back into the game and managed to form a maul close to the Driffield line, they controlled it well and were rewarded with a try, which was converted to bring the half-time score to 31-12.

The hosts kicked off the scoring in the second period with a spectacular second try for Tonks.

He received the ball inside his own 22 and set off on a run, beating three defenders to go under the posts. The conversion was added by Napier.

Having looked comfortable in the first half, the Woldsmen started to lose some of their shape in defence.

Malton took advantage and started spreading the ball around, scoring three tries in quick succession to bring them right back into the game at 38-29.

Driffield recovered their composure and managed to stop the visitors scoring any more points.

Forward pressure close to Malton’s line gave Wilson an opportunity to force his way through the defence for a try to widen the gap to 43-29.

The final score of the game went to Walkington – his fourth try of the match.

His blistering pace was once again too much for Malton and he ran through three tackles to score his 11th try of the season.

Man of the match was Schwer in only his second game for the team.

Packs of organic apricot kernels have been withdrawn because wrong labels fail to warn of cyanide poisoning risk if too many are eaten.

The Food Standards Agency recommend no more than two kernels are eaten a day because of a long-term build up of cyanide, a natural toxin in bitter apricot kernels.

But 175g packs of organic apricot kernels from Ireland-based Nua Naturals have been wrongly labelled advising to consume "no more than three to five kernels daily."

Sold through health food stores, apricot kernels, like most nuts and seeds, are packed with nutrients such as amygdalin, or vitamin B17 which many claim attacks cancer cells.

Bitter apricot kernels have long been used in traditional Chinese medicine to relieve coughs, asthma and improve bowel function.

But when metabolised amygdalin produces hydrogen cyanide.

Although amygdalin is found in apple, grape, cherry, peach and nectarine pips, only bitter apricot kernels. have such high high concentrations.

The FSA said: "Nua Naturals is recalling batches of Organic Apricot Kernels as the recommended usage on the label incorrectly advises to consume 'No more than three to five kernels daily.'

"We advise consumption of bitter apricot kernels should not exceed one to two kernels per adult per day due to potential acute and long term toxic effects associated with cyanide, which is found as a natural toxin in bitter apricot kernels.

"Due to the potential acute and long term toxic effects associated with cyanide, the FSA advises that the consumption of apricot kernels should not exceed one to two kernels per adult per day, as doses above this could cause an acute health risk.

"Nua Naturals has recalled the above products and issued point-of-sale notices to stores selling the products, requesting customers who have bought this product to return it to the store of purchase.

"Consumers are advised not to consume any of the above product, and return the affected products to the store of purchase.

The company based in Galway said: "Nua Naturals are recalling our Organic Apricot Kernels 175g due to an update in labelling recommendations as directed by the FSA.

"The reason is the usage of "No more than 3 to 5 per day" which is above the maximum level of 1 to 2 per day as recommended by the FSA in order to avoid any potential health risk.

"We apologise for any inconvenience that this may have caused."

The affected packets have the 'Best before' end: May 2017 with batch codes: 150929, 151117, 160119 and 'Best before' end: November 2016 with batch codes: 150629, 150129, 150410.

No other Nua Naturals products are known to be affected.

A funeral service was held at All Saints’ Church, Wold Newton on Thursday February 25, for Mrs Gwendolyne Mary Blunden (formerly of Filey) who died peacefully on February 13. She was aged 95 years.

The service was conducted by the Rev Barbara Hodgson and the organist was Mr Dick Robinson.

Gwendolyne, better known as Mollie, was born on Boxing Day 1920 to James and Gertrude Wilson at Wold Newton Grange. It was thick snow and the doctor couldn’t make it through, so advised her father it would be like lambing and her father delivered her. She attended Wold Newton School from the age of three-and-a-half and had to walk the mile-and-a-half to school. She left school at the age of 14 and became a hairdresser in Hunmanby, biking to work.

In 1940 she met Eddie at a dance in Sledmere where he was stationed. As Eddie was due to go overseas they got a special license and were married in April, 1941 at Wold Newton Church. Eddie went to Burma until 1946.

Mollie went to Leeds for government training to be a toolmaker, then worked at Smart and Browns in Keighley on milling machines. She was the only woman and the men there didn’t like it, but Mollie made the way for the next women.

On Eddie’s return they moved to Filey where they bought a guest house and it was there they raised their four children. Always being part of the community, Mollie baked for the church and fund raising. People would stand and wait at the cake stall until the trays of apple pies and scones arrived, usually still warm.

Molly and Eddie loved dancing and going to dinner dances. In later life they loved going on cruises, dancing their way all round the world. Mollie did her last cruise at the age of 89. They moved to Driffield in 1997 to be near to family in their retirement. Eddie passed away in 2002 after 61 wonderful years of marriage.

Mollie loved gardening, knitting and watching sport.

To sum up her life Mollie filled in a memory book and it ended with what things in life made her the happiest which were: Bringing up her family, having a wonderful and caring husband, and meeting so many people from all walks of life.

In 2013 Mollie moved into Southlands due to failing health. Mollie loved her family and she will be greatly missed.

Bridlington’s Sophia Topham has been selected for the under-15s Northern Division Academy squad after impressing while playing for Yorkshire.

She was selected for the county in November, but her performances have caught the eye and have seen her chosen to play at the next level.

Being part of the Northern squad puts her in the top 120 players in her age group nationally.

Topham began playing rugby at Dukes Park in Bridlington at the age of four, before moving to Driffield when she was 11.

When she had to stop playing mixed rugby, a lack of local teams saw her move to play for an all-girls team at West Park Leeds, where she plays at centre, or on the wing.

Training with the Northern squad includes weekends away in Sheffield, while matches are played in Birmingham against Southern Divisional sides. Topham is also be hoping to make it through to the Talent Development Camp towards the end of the season.

The new rugby league season is about to start and any boys or girls aged four upwards interested in playing the game are more than welcome at Beverley Braves.

The club already more than 100 players from across the East Riding of Yorkshire but always open to new players who are new to the game or who have played before.

The club also offers other opportunities for its members. For example, recently teams have played games on tour in Newcastle and Lincolnshire, played on the pitch at half-time at both Hull FC and Hull KR and met professional players as well as having the opportunity to train on the City of Hull academy programme.

If you are interested in joining or finding out more, go to Longcroft school on a Saturday at 10am or speak to Neil on 07460 898724 or Nikki on 07846 580158.

A funeral service was held at the East Riding Crematorium on Thursday February 25, for Mrs Verena Hoggard of Southlands Residential Home, Cranswick (formerly of Driffield), who died on February 12. She was aged 89 years.

The service was conducted by the Rev Jacki Tonkin and the organist was Mrs Margaret Dowson.

Verena was born in Leven on September 24, she was the fifth of seven children born to Robert and Gertrude Scrouston with three brothers and three sisters. She attended school in Leven leaving at the age of 14. She then went to work as a housekeeper. It was there she met her husband-to-be, Leslie Hoggard, and they married at Leven Church.

Their first home was in Scarborough Road in Driffield where Leslie built up a successful business and their last home was The Mount. Neither Verena or Leslie learnt to drive and so relied on foot, bike, bus or train. They had many days out in Filey and Scarborough.

Verena delighted in her garden. She was a lover of flowers, especially roses and gladioli. She was a great cook, famous for her butterfly cakes and meat pies. She was always very involved with her nieces and nephews and always proud of each new generation.

Unfortunately Leslie died suddenly 18 years ago. It was a great shock to Verena but she got on with life drawing on her friendships and her family. She delighted in her family and her dogs and cats.

She moved to Southlands six years ago after illness and a bad fall but she always had a constant stream of visitors. She will be greatly missed.

A total of £133 was collected for Cancer Research.

A memorial service was held on Friday February 26 at St Andrew’s Church, Bainton, following committal at Octon Crematorium, for Mrs Ivy Anderson of Bainton, who died on February 14. She was aged 92 years.

The service was conducted by Miss Catharine Otton-Goulder and the organist was Mr Steven Westaway.

Ivy was born on September 1, 1923 to Rose and Andrew McKee. She grew up in Aldbrough. She was the youngest of nine children. Her father died when she was very young and her mother managed to raise all the children single handedly – a testament to where Ivy probably got her strength of mind from.

Ivy loved school and was often the top of her class. She was a natural mathematician and worked for the Co-op as a bookkeeper, before joining the team of Carmichaels Jewellers in Hull to do the accounts and payroll.

She met her husband-to-be, Eric Anderson, through a friend and they married in 1949 and lived with Eric’s parents at Bainton Heights Farm until a house became available in Bainton Village. They celebrated over 60 years of marriage before Eric passed away in 2010.

They went on to have three sons, Peter, John and David.

Ivy soon took to village life, participating in whist on a competitive level, enjoying darts and later becoming a founder member and active team player at Bainton Bowls Club – in fact, Ivy was a driving force behind reinstating the Bainton Bowling Green as it is known today, meeting with Mr Caley who very kindly donated the land.

Ivy was the last keeper of Bainton Village Shop on Church Street, which literally was open all hours. When the shop closed they moved to Leafield Road until they found a plot of land to have their own bungalow built. Ivy also helped out at the NAAFI shop on the Driffield Army Camp where she stayed full time for many years, before finally retiring in Laburnum Bungalow on Church Street.

Ivy made many friends in the village, especially Sylvia Walters who was a great friend for over 50 years.

Ivy lived for her family, she had seven grandchildren whom she adored and loved nothing more than having them sit round her dining table for Sunday tea. She also had four great grandchildren. She will be dearly missed.

A funeral service was held at the East Riding Crematorium on Wednesday February 24 for Mr James Leslie Roe, who died peacefully in hospital on February 12. He was aged 91 years.

The service was conducted by the Rev Stuart Grant and the organist was Mr Steven Westaway.
