The only way to travel. by Visual Photons

Several notable events have marked the long history of the Fleetwood to Knott End ferry service and its vessels, including the current Wyre Rose:

In 1905, the ferry set a record when about 10,200 passengers used the service in a single day, reflecting its popularity among locals and holidaymakers.

Livestock crossings were a common sight in earlier decades. Farmers frequently transported animals such as pigs, sheep, cows, and even horses. Horses would often swim alongside the ferry, secured by ropes, while other livestock and even poultry or ferrets were brought directly onboard.

Weather-related incidents and challenging crossings have shaped the ferry’s reputation for adventure. In the mid-20th century, it was not unusual for the boat to be buffeted by storms. Councillor Jean Mutch recalls that during the 1950s, the ferryboat Wyresdale once flipped onto its side in rough conditions.

Periods of service suspension occurred due to siltation in the river or insufficient funds for maintaining navigable channels, notably detailed in the late 1960s report on required dredging and financial losses.

The ferry’s role as a social hub brought people together, with some couples attributing meeting each other to regular commutes aboard the boat as schoolchildren in the 1940s and 1950s.

The ferry's operation has frequently faced financial uncertainty and campaign efforts to sustain its future, with a significant recent push in 2025 to preserve the service as its contract nears expiry in 2026.

These events illustrate the ferry’s colorful legacy, its central role in local life, and the adventures and challenges experienced both by passengers and operators.

4 Tips to Secure the Privacy of Your Home by East Point Locksmith

Roughly around 325,000 homes across the US are broken into every year, usually in plain view. Altogether there are about 2.5 million burglaries reported and 66% of those are in homes. Most break-ins happen during the day when people are most likely to be out and about.

There are certain things you can do to protect your home in order not to become a statistic. We’ve rounded up 4 tips to protect your home, your family, and belongings better.

Keep valuables out of sight

It’s not difficult for anyone to just walk up and take a peek through one of your windows and see what you have lying around if you don’t have thick curtains or forgot to close them on your way out. While some items are not really meant to be moved around, like a TV screen, others are easier to move and keep out of view. Laptops, mobiles, all other small devices, purses, and wallets can all be put away when you’re out of the house. Even if your purse or wallet is actually empty and the mobile is old, a burglar wouldn’t know that, and it would just be too tempting in their eyes.

Wire up

It doesn’t matter if you live in a building, a house, or own a shop or any other business, you can use a security system to put your mind at ease. If moving into a new home or looking to sell your old one that’s a good time for when to get a wired security system. Having a wired system can increase the cost of your home when selling, and may also have custom made options that wireless security systems do not always offer.

Don’t provide hiding places

Your landscape, tall trees, and bushes are lovely to sit near and under. They provide nice shade on hot days but they also provide more opportunity for thieves and the likes to hide in. Keep shrubs and trees trimmed, at least trimmed enough that they do not block windows. Besides that, don’t leave items outside. Many people will leave a ladder outside after doing some roof repair, for example. This is inviting a would-be thief to the upper floors of a house where windows might be often unlocked.

Change locks when necessary

Anytime you or someone else loses a key to the house, change the lock. You can never be sure if the key was actually lost or if someone got their hands on it, giving them more than easy access to your home. If you rent out a home, it’s also recommended to change locks after a tenant leaves.

You can never be too safe

There really is no such thing as being too safe when it comes to protecting your home. Be an alert homeowner and find out more ways to protect your property. Always keep all doors, windows and the garage locked. You can ask someone you trust to keep a watchful eye if you have to leave home for an extended period. As we say, better to be safe than sorry.

Bangor RFC v Enniscorthy RFC hold by John Mooney

Enniscorthy edged by battling Bangor by Roger Corbett

Bangor produced an excellent performance against a strong Enniscorthy side to once again come from behind and secure a semi-final place by 14-10.

In contrast to last week, the weather and pitch conditions at Upritchard Park were good. However, Bangor’s preparations got off to a bad start when centre Mike Aspley aggravated an injury in the pre-match warm-up and was unable to play. A quick re-shuffle saw Chris Morgan come in from full back as his replacement, and Adam McCusker taking up the full back role. For Enniscorthy’s part, they came to this fixture on the back of a good run of results in the Leinster League Division 1A, and sitting in second place in that table.

A mistake by Bangor right from the referee’s whistle at kick-off looked to have handed the visitors an opportunity to take the initiative. However, having won the ball back, McCusker put a superb kick deep into the Enniscorthy twenty two that left the defence no option but to put it into touch. The Bangor line-out was taken cleanly by Curtis Stewart, and a maul was formed that surged towards the Enniscorthy line before Jamie Clegg dropped with the ball and scored the game’s first try after just 4 minutes. Mark Widdowson made the conversion, and the score was 7-0.

Within 3 minutes the lead could have been extended when Enniscorthy were penalised for a high tackle. However, this time Widdowson’s kick drifted wide of the posts.

If Bangor thought things were going their way, this soon changed as Enniscorthy gathered themselves and started to gain confidence through a lengthy period of possession, aided in some part by Bangor’s readiness to kick when in possession themselves. The Enniscorthy attack was now causing Bangor headaches, with the result that the penalty count started to rise. Eventually these repeated infringements around the breakdown led to a yellow card being shown to James Henly. Enniscorthy saw this as their opportunity to capitalise, and laid siege to Bangor’s line. Bangor doggedly held their line despite conceding further penalties, and having to defend the resulting line-out and drive combination by Enniscorthy. As Henly’s 10 minute period in the sin bin came to an end, Bangor had somehow managed to hold off the Enniscorthy attack, and had actually managed to turn over the ball, giving them a chance to clear their lines and gather their breath. However, in a bizarre series of events, Ricky Armstrong’s clearance kick was charged down and bounced back towards the Bangor line, only to be gratefully accepted by one of the big Enniscorthy forwards who was still getting to his feet from the preceding ruck. With barely two steps to the line, he touched down for the try, leaving the Bangor players confused and dejected after working so hard to prevent the score. The conversion was missed, keeping Bangor narrowly ahead by 7-5, after 23 minutes.

For most of the remainder of the first half, Enniscorthy kept play in Bangor’s half. Bangor looked dangerous on the counter attack, with some good runs by the wingers Davy Charles and Mark Widdowson. For Enniscorthy’s part, they had several good scoring opportunities but either knocked-on or missed a pass at the crucial moments. A half time score of 7-5 would have been gladly taken by Bangor but, as 40 minutes approached, a lapse in concentration while in their own twenty two, led to a missed tackle which was clinically exploited by Enniscorthy, allowing them to run in for their second try which, although unconverted, gave the lead by 7-10 as the sides turned around.

As has been the case in many other games, Bangor’s second half performance moved up a gear, and it was now the visitor’s line that was coming under attack. Within the first 10 minutes, Bangor looked to be in a good scoring position, but the Enniscorthy defence was equal to Bangor’s first half display. Although unable to break through at this time, Bangor were now looking more confident as the initial Enniscorthy charge appeared to be stuttering. This certainly looked the case when, after 25 minutes had elapsed, the Enniscorthy kicker elected to go for the posts from close to the half way line – a strange decision given the relatively poor conversion attempts earlier. Once again the kick was missed, but Bangor had at least been pushed back into their own half.

As the game entered the final 5 minutes, it was beginning to look like Enniscorthy would hold firm and take the win. However, in a repeat of the exemplary performance displayed at Clonmel in the previous round, Bangor simply lifted their game again and mounted a surge against their tiring opponents. With just 2 minutes of normal time remaining, Jamie Ball gathered the ball at the half way line, and then passed it to Clegg on his left. Leading by example, Clegg went straight, taking the ball past the 10 metre line and drawing the approaching Enniscorthy defender. A well-timed pass to his left was equally well-received by Widdowson on the wing, who rounded his opposite number and sprinted for the line. With little space to work with and the full-back still to beat, Widdowson produced the speed and footwork necessary to take him over the line, to the left of the posts. He then managed to add the icing on the cake with another well-struck conversion which put Bangor ahead by 14-10.

The moments immediately after scoring are particularly dangerous, and with Enniscorthy now throwing everything they had, the remaining couple of minutes were incredibly tense – for both sets of supporters. To Enniscorthy’s credit, they skilfully kept recycling the ball – almost like sevens rugby – bringing the game back into Bangor’s twenty two. But in the end, it was just too much, with Bangor eventually managing to turn the ball over and close out the game, bringing despair and delight in equal measure on the faces of the opposing players.

To the Bangor supporters who had been unable to travel to the game at Clonmel, and who had not fully appreciated the performance there, this brought everything that had been said into focus, and with it the realisation that Bangor now have the ability to go all the way in this competition. With Ulster rivals Clogher Valley and CIYMS, and Leinster high-fliers Dundalk now joining Bangor in the semi-finals, the next hurdle will be equally challenging, but having beaten two of the strongest junior sides in Ireland, confidence is high and everything is now to play for.

Here is a DIY project to make shock cord holders. These are often used for tents or a dining fly. Commercially they are made with a plastic Ball on the end. Here is how I made mine.

1) I cut 1/2 inch or so pieces off of a Dowel rod (1.25 inch I think). I used a hand saw and miter box. This created a ragged edge which would have to be sanded out for a nicer finish. For what I am doing I did not do that.

2) Drilled a hole in the middle of this "Cookie". just big enough to push the shock cord through doubled at the center.

3) Cut my shock cord slightly longer than twice around the object I am securing. 3in pipe that protects my straight edges in this case.

4) Fused the ends of the shock cord so they do not fray.

5) Folded the shock cord at the middle. Pushed that center point through the hole in the "cookie"

6) Tied a figure 8 knot in the bitter end of the shock cord. Pushed the "cookie" to the knot.

7) Tacked the assembly to the wall of the shed where I wanted to secure my tools with a fence staple (a U shaped nail that is driven with a hammer).

8) set my pipe in place and looped the middle over the cookie.

9) Repeate steps 1-8 3 more times. Then step back and said what a good idea.

The more tools you put in the tool box the less thinking you have to do outside of it.

I had most of the parts but it look like i cost buy for.

48in 1.25 dowel $5.00 Lowes

shock cord 1/4in X 10 Feet $6.00 Amazon

Staples are $6.00 a box (I only used 4)

There are a bunch of uses for these. You could make the "cookie" out of all kinds of material. These will NOT be exposed to the weather so I did not finish them if I were planning on using them outside I would poly them.

CEA Racing Award Winners! by Unixx TR Motorsport

The Bangkok Motor show provided the backdrop for 2014 Pro Racing Series (now named Grand Prix Racing League) awards dinner. CEA Racing had a fantastic 2014 season narrowly missing out on the drivers’ championship but winning the overall team championship and securing second place for the driver’s title. Along with these two awards CEA Racing were giving the honour of collecting the winning manufacturer’s award on behalf of HONDA motorsport.

The evening began with a fine array of food and drinks being offered to the teams and their guests, it was a great time to catch up with all the other teams since the season ended. As the VIP’s were seated Khun Annothai head of The Grand Prix Racing League and Team Eakie Motorsport gave a speech giving thanks to all who had contributed to such an exciting and enjoyable 2014. He also announced that a new class of car would be entering the series for 2015 ‘Japanese Power Challenge’ this was met with great cheers and applause from all.

After all the speeches were complete a short interlude followed while all the winners were briefed of the protocol for collection of their awards.

CEA Racings Thomas Raldorf graciously collected his trophy for 2nd place in the drivers’ championship but more importantly collected the 1st place trophy for winning the team championship. Earl Brown of CEA collected on behalf of Honda motorsport the winning manufacturer’s award for 2014.

Although CEA racing fell so agonizingly short of the drivers title they were still very happy with the nights proceedings, thoughts now turn to 2015 and going one step further.

CEA Racing would like to congratulate all the winners for 2014 and look forward to some more exciting racing in 2015!

Secure Your Load by Eli Christman

I'd argue this is negligent bordering on criminal.

My coworker was driving on the highway when the truck in front of him lost a large piece of metal it was carrying. If flew through the air and struck the van.

If you look at the photo of the steering wheel, you'll see it's bent. The steering wheel kept him from being impaled in the chest, neck or face.

Airbags did not deploy and he was covered in glass.

Police are still looking for that driver, who caused three additional, separate, accidents up the road as more metal rods fell off his truck.

Locker by M W

Our current Sculpture project brief is a fairly open one; it asks that we explore objects in relation to a site or sites.

Aside from the set work I have created this locker in response to the dire lack of space and secure storage on my course.

The locker is created entirely from scrap timber and fittings and was fun to make. One of my tutors suggested that as a bespoke object it could be considered ‘Sculpture’.

I do find it a pleasing object, and to some extent it does provide an elegant grounded response to the brief. It is essentially an intermediary between the (objects) I give importance to and the uncertain and chaotic space/(site) of our studio.
