• 1:19
  Speaker 1: of music and sport. As we start the show with

  Speaker 1: a belt remember this rolling stone? What an intro painted black.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: I wanted into the.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Rolling Stone's there. I do love to get the show
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: on the road with a belter of a song. Get
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: you in the mood. Are you at work and your
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: lunch break. I'll have a little dance around the office.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Why not?
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, so it's time for some cricket news. Now the
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: cricket season is it's coming to an end, believe it
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: or not. So it's time to take an in depth
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: report on our local clubs and see how they're doing
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: this season. So let's start with Folks than first eleven. Well,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: last Saturday they traveled away to play Dartford. They won
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: the toss, decided to bat, made two hundred and thirty
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: six all out, Ruderard Dunde top scorer with seventy seven
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: and Stuart Graham adding sixty two. However, Dartford made two
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: hundred and thirty nine for six, thanks mainly to one
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: hundred and twelve not out from James Thompson, so Dartford
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: won the game by four wickets. This Saturday is a
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: way to top of the table seven Oaks Now Folks
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: then play in the Championship Section, which is the second
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: tier of the Kent League. They've played thirteen of their
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: eighteen games and need a few wins to get them
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: away from the bottom end of the table as they
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: are currently sitting eighth out of ten teams and the
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: teams in ninth and tenth place will face relegation. So
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: and if you said they have a tough one on
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Saturday as their opponents at seven Oaks are top of
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: the table. So let's move on to Hawkins. Now, I
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: may have missed Hawkins fixtures last week by not checking
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: the dates Lilly me because there is an odd number
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: of teams in Division eight Section and they didn't have
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: a game last Saturday. So it's this coming week the
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: top of the table Hawkins play second place Deal Victoria
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: and Barnes close and it's important the Deal keep their momentum,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: keep their noses in front and stay on top because
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: it looks like only one team goes up. I have,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: who are also in Division eight. Shepherd Section won the
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: toss at home to Ash Cricket Club. Decided to bat
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: and made one hundred and seventy one for six. Top
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: scorer was Dan Cowe with sixty. I've then bowled Ash
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: out for one hundred and forty nine, win the game
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: by twenty two runs. Now I ever having a good season,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: currently in third place. This Saturday, they are away to
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Betsanger Colliery. I've green Oo our seventh in Division nine.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Shepherd Section came up against the Informed top of the
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: table Edgerton and found them too strong. On the day,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Edgeton batted first to made one hundred and seventy five.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: The Green could only make eighty two so lost the
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: game by ninety three runs. This Saturday, the Green are
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: at home to Tendendon who are in third place. Silverad
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: traveled to Thanet to play Nelson Cricket Club. Nelson batted
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: first made one hundred and fifty one for seven. Sialt
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: WD then made one hundred and five all out, which
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: was not enough so they lost the game by forty
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: six runs. This week they are home to fourth place
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: north Down, who also come from Margy over Thanet Way.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Now sil would Our in Division nine of the Shepherd
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Section and are currently eighth out of ten teams with
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: five games left, so they could do with a good
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: win on Saturday and a couple more wins before the
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: end of the season. And finally, Sipton Park had a
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: tough time at home to Mersam Sports. The Sibs won
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: the toss, elected to bat and made one hundred and
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: forty three for six. Merselem then took to the crease
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and made one hundred and forty seven with a loss
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: of just two wickets on Saturday is a visit to
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Linton Park, just south of Maystone. Now the SIPs play
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: their cricket in Division five Hurricane Section and are currently
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: fourth out of ten teams, so that's not too bad.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: So it's quite a steady old position there. So let's
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: sum up our local teams in their respective divisions. Folks
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Don are eighth out of ten, Hawkins A top I
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: have a third, Iive Green a seventh out of ten,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Sward are eighth out of ten and Siptm Plark are
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Sipton Park are fourth out of ten. So now I'll
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: keep bringing you the week by week scores and probably
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: do another in depth report going into well the second
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: last game and see if there's any really close you know,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: things that hinge on the last couple of games, and
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: then obviously we wrap it up with the last games
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: of the season. Time for a bit of music now,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and this is Kelly Clarkson. Remember this one.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: This is because of you, our man bag the same
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: mistakes Judy from twenty sixteen. There one Republic and wherever
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: I go.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Right now, let's have a little look back at my
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: sporty weekend. I had no race to compare. On a Saturday,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: I was asked to make a small football presentation. Now,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Mickey and I has been a football coach for twenty
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: five years and finally decided to call it a day.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: He's been coaching at schools all over Kent and every
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Saturday morning he's been taking a class on the pitch
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: outside Lynn Village Hall. Now the mums of Lynn decided
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: to surprise him with a gathering of family. Loads of
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: his family turned up and even some former pupils going
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: back to his very first training session twenty five years ago. Now,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I personally first met Mickey down to Hive of twenty
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: five years ago.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: I was about that time.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, when I was playing down there, I bumped him
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: to him every now and then, you know, like you do,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: you get out of touch. But in recent months I've
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: been watching my seven year old grandson Reef enjoy taking
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: part in Mickey's coaching sections. Now to say he was
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: overwhelmed as an understatement as tributes and messages were read
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: out by myself over the PA system after listening to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: some great footy music and O Matter Day, Free Lions
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Big thanks goes to Lisa and
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: the two Kyliees for secretly organizing the gathering, which was
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: a really huge successful morning.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: It really was.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Now I've always known him as Mickey, right, but I
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: don't know why his name. He calls himself Mike. But
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: he was presented with this beautifully engraved plaque. He is
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: a glass plaque and this is the engraving that was
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: on it. It says, with our greatest appreciation, presented to
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Coach Mike Knight, in recognition of your passion, leadership and
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: dedication to the game of football, your ability to inspire
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: greatness to shape the character and futures of countless players,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: with gratitude for your twenty five years of commitment, mentorship
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: and excellence. Now, the morning was packed, you know, there
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: was loads of people. Lisa and the team got together.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: There were some well cup football kicks and some excuse me,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: and some hot dogs flying around, and everyone love to
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: come up and have a chat with him and to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: have the picture done with him. And as I say,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: there were some people there that actually were at the
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: very first coaching session twenty five years ago. I was
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: asked to go along and just had a bit of
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: music and a bit of fun and we had a
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: couple of guest speakers. One lady in particular, she was
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: a Dutch lady, and she told this story about her
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: husband who came over with her and he played a
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: bit of amateur football in Holland. And what Micky did.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: He was at a tournament and no one knew this really,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: but Micky introduced him as a Dutch international goalkeeper as
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: he's handed out the prizes, and it's something that Mick
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: has never forgotten. Anyway, I played some music, as I say,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: and there was only one song that I could play
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: and belt out after we'd presented him with his trophy.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: So sit back and listen to Tony Basil's Love or Hate.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: This one is a Marmight song. It's called Hey Mickey.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Well let me go, Hey Mickey. I'll tell you what
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: people were really clapping and getting in the mood on Saturday,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: as that was a little tribute to Mickey and I
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: who's been coaching for twenty five years and football coaching
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: and finally decided to call it a day.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, So coming up.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: After the next song, I'm going to tell you what
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I got up to at the Folks and Bowls Club.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: This is Anastasia and not that kind of All the.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Time that we speared twogether.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Anastasia not that kind of girl, And I think she's
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: trying to say she's not that kind of girl.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: That's from the year two thousand right now. Last Saturday afternoon,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I thought, what am I going to do?
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: So I decided to take myself off to the folks
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: and Bowls Club and see what's going on. It's just
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: a while, it's a while since I reported on the
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: game of bowls, you know. I found out there was
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: indeed a friendly game in progress between Folkston and Sheritan
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: Bowls Club. So I bought myself a paint and settled
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: down in the sunny, peaceful and tranquil surroundings and watched
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: them play. Now I don't begin to understand the rules
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: or the finer points of the game, but I faoroughly
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: enjoyed my quite afternoon. It was so relaxing down there.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: It just made a total change from some of the
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: sporting environments that I get to.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Here it's all.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: Noise and music and shouting, but it was so peaceful,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: it was lovely. Now there wasn't just one game going
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: on the green. There was six, six games on the
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: green all at once. I had a quick chat with
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: two of my friends who were playing. It was nice
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: to see Nigel and Denese Punnet and found out that
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: in those six games there were thirty six people involved.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: From a distance, I saw Cheron Bowls Club, my Cheriton
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Bowls Club contact Peter Bamford, but I didn't go over
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: as it was their two break and they all seem
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: to be engrossed in talking tactics and I didn't want
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: to spoil it. So however, Peter did contact me with
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: some up to date news. Now he told me that
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Rose James from the Folkston Bowls Club will be at
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: the National Finals in Leamington after qualifying in the ladies'
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: under seventeenth singles, and Daniel Bagent from Folkston Park Bowls
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Club in Radne Park on the corner there as also
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: qualified in the under seventeenth singles. Both play their games
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: on the Thursday, the fourteenth of August.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: Now, this is a.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Great achievement for the both, especially for Rose as it's
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: her first season playing bowls outdoors. Now you've got to remember,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: but this is the National Final. We've said this before
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: when it comes around from Lymington Spa It's like the
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Wembley is to football, the Twickenham is to rugby, the
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Wimbledon is to tennis. Lemington Spa is to bowls. It's
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: the national final. You cannot get any higher in this
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: country if you get to a national final. And also
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: former Charitan member and former guest of the show Leah Bamford,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: who has now moved to Essex. She's qualified for the
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Ladies two Wood singles and plays her first game on
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: the Wednesday, the eighteenth of August. Now you can tell
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: thereby the age of those youngsters there, Rose and Daniel
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: that they are still in their teens. So this stigma
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: of bowls being for a senior person, if you like,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: it's a job to get it lifted, you know, because
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: there are plenty and plenty of young people playing the game.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: I do hope to get Leah Bamford and her dad
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Peter in the studio. We're just trying to work out
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: a date Leah when she comes down to see a
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: family from Essex. It's going to drop me a line
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: and hopefully pop in and see us. Now it's a
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: bit double edge really because I want to do a
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: little special on Sherit and Bulbs Club and Leah was
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: one of my guests many years ago when she came
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: in with three other young ladies and it was just
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: a momentous morning.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: It really was.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: No one had ever heard of these girls and they
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: represented Kent and represented England later on, and it was
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: just a story that went under the radar. It's one
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: of my all time favorite stories. And added to that,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Leah is hoping to run the Brighton Marathon, so she's
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: going to tell us about that. So that's really a
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: date to look forward to. And I'll be letting you
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: know when we can get them in. Okay, time for
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: any music now? And this is the Stereophonics and taken
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: a tumble Veriophonics there in a tumble.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Do you know what? There's something that Missus Ferrett does.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: She goes out for a run.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: We were in Cypress. I keep going on about Cypress,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: but you know I've got a soft spot for Cypress.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: We were in Cypress.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: And she decided to go for a run and without me,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: which was good, and so for a bit of peace
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: and quiet for a little while. So she goes and
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: what does she do She comes back covered in blood. Yeah,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: she took a tumble and went flying and cut her
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: knee and cut her hand open. And it's not the
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: first time she's done it. You know. She takes her
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: eye off the ball and it's she's got a nose
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: in the dust.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: But so that song was for her, for.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Suda taking a tumble and the other person that did
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: take a tumble recently, but she's recovered.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: It's Julie Gibbs.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Julie, Yes, Julia.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately, she took a tumble along the seafront there at Hive.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: She was off on a run, all keen to go
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: bomb down. She goes like a sack of potatoes. But
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: she's okay now having a little chuckle about it. I'll
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: tell you what's dangerous this running, isn't it?
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: Okay?
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Talking of running, I'm going to after this song, I'm
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: going to be talking about the Soul Sisters in Cypress.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: There is a special I know it's not local folks
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: the news, but if I've got a great connection with
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: these people. So listen to this song by Busted and
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you about the Soul Sisters in Cypress after this.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: Track, Thunderbird Are Go.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: You remember Thunderbirds? Are you that you remember them?
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: Well, I do, because I used to live in Borenwood,
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: you know, and the Thunderbirds and all that sort of
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: stuff was made at the studios, and the studios in
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Boorenwood were a source of employment. A bit like power station,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: bit like you're a tunnel, a bit like this, you know,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: the dot. A lot of people used to work at
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: the Boringwood studios, and not just in the films, you know,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: there was lots of other trades. There was electricians, carpenters,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: you know, people that were doing the sets, painters and decorators.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: It really was a hive of industry, sadly you know
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: more but the actual studios there they made all sorts
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: of classic things like Danger Man, the Avengers and the
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: great film that was made in Boringwood. And there's been
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: loads of pictures on Facebook is on the buses and
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: now we know on the buses was once a week show,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: but they did a full length feature and it was
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: made all around the streets of Boringwood where I was
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: brought up. And there's one particular shot. It was right
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: outside my front door and the bus comes down the hill.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Blake was standing by the bus and there was a massive,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: massive puddle and what does the bus driver do? Of
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: course he goes ridge varney, isn't it It goes straight through
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: the puddle and soaks him. How many times they took
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: that to get the shot right?
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Amazing.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Anyway, that was a little bit about Boringwood of my childhood.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: I could go on forever about that because it was
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: really good fun times. So but I did say I
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: was going to tell you about the Soul Sisters now.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: As you know, me and missus Ferrett do like our
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Cyperus holidays, and over the years we've got to make
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: loads and loads of friends over there, especially members of
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: the Pathos Running Club. Well, a few weeks ago I
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: mentioned the ladies section and played Hey Soul Sister by
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: train and sent a Joe you a little two minute
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: clip which ended up on the Soul Sisters Facebook page.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: When played it back in a nice way, though it
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: sounded like all they did was me up, drink coffee
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: and eat cake, so I wanted to put that right.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: There is much more to the Pathwas Running Club and
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: the Soul Sisters, and I felt I owe it to
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: them to explain what else they do now the Soul Sisters,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: which they've since made me an honor re member. You know, yeah,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: I'm going to get a badge. I hope it's made
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: up of ladies only, but in recent times they've accepted
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: men into the group and they are Soul Misters. They
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: meet three mornings a week for a run around the
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: pathwass region and welcome new members. They are mostly expats
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: and they have formed a group who support each other
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: and offer encouragement to their fellow runners as they're all
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: at different levels now. One member, Jackie Maison, I hope
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: we've got that right. Jackie or Jackie Mizzen, told me
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: how much the Soul Sisters supported her when she went
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: through her breast cancer. The Soul's Sisters helped to organize
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: the club's charity fundraiser called the Breast of Friends. This
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: is a round jog walk event where pink is the
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: themed color that sound familiar and is held every year
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: in October. In fact, one year we did go out
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: in October. I think it was one of the many
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: times that we went out. We normally go in November December,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: but we went out in October and we actually took
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: part in this.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: Event and it was great.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: And I recently found out that over the years, this
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: event has raised nearly twenty thousand euros, which is around
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: about eighteen thousand pound now. The money goes towards buying
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: spe the Shore Hospital beds lymphidemer sleeves. Now that is interesting.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: They are a compression sleeve for the relief and prevention
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: of swollen upper limbs due to post mastectomy, radiological and
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: chemotherapy treatments. They offer financial support for taxes so that
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: cancer patients can get to their appointments, and they organize
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: coffee and fundraising mournings for cancer support and to promote
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: the awareness of prostate cancer as well as breast cancer.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: And they do make a contribution to the local hospice. Now,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: of course this is the main thing. They do love
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: their running and they do love the camaraderie that is
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: generated when they meet up. And I'm so glad I've
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: been able to share with everybody just what else they
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: do to help others in the Cypress community. I want
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: if Jackie Misn't and the Boss Zoe Caudry, for their
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: input into this report, which has been invaluable. Now we'll
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: be back in Cypress in November and we'll try and
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: meet up with the soul Sisters for coffee and cake.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: In the meantime.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: I'm now, as I said, an honorary member. And you
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: know that it's not just people in England, it's they
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: are expats that think about others in the community. You know,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: once again we've got a group of runners that get together.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: They've also got a cycling section, a walk in section,
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: and they have great fun nights. But they also do
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: a lot for local community. And if you're ever out
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: in Pathos, please please before you go, just check out
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: their website or their Facebook page and you fancy your
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: run or a jog, then they would really welcome you.
