According to the Parish Magazine this ‘demonstrated that Cranleigh had some players of high standard’. The Cranleigh football team was also revived, and beat Godalming 8-0. The St Nicolas Sunday School went on an outing, as before the war. They went by train to Bramley, then walked to Wonersh Park (by invitation). The children enjoyed the peacocks and deer, the ponds and streams, and played cricket and other games. The tea was transported in a motor van. Races followed, and everyone sang the National Anthem. Rennie Crick of the Royal Army Medical Corps, whose career we have followed during the War, was demobbed in February 1919. He went straight to Rushden in Northants, to see Rosie, the girl he had been corresponding with virtually daily for the past year. During the summer he got engaged to her! However, before the diary ends in December 1919, there were indications that all was not well with the relationship. In 1925 he got married, not to the girl from Rushden, but to the girl who had worked for Rennie’s father in the Northampton Boot Store since 1915 and whom he had known in the Wesleyan Methodist church since 1910, when she was 8! Rennie did not go back to the printing apprenticeship in Reigate which he had left for the Army, but instead joined his father in the North- ampton Boot Store. They moved their premises in 1925 to a newly-built shop next to the Methodist church where Rennie worked for the next 40 years.

he variety of shops run by much-loved local entrepreneurs in Cranleigh has tailed off in recent years as costs prove increasingly unaf- Tfordable.

Nationally known chain stores have moved in alongside a High Street now notable for its plethora of charity shops, coffee-supping outlets, and vacant premises.

I was born on 31st March 1943, in Mount Alvernia Hospital, Guildford. My family had been evacuated from Dulwich, where my mother was a matron at Dulwich Hospital. We were billeted to ‘Hollyhock Farm House’, next to Notcutts, and from there we moved to 20 Kings Road Cranleigh and subsequently to ‘St Anthony’s’ at the top of Avenue Road. We stayed there until the late 1940’s, at which time my mother took the lease on ‘Penwerris’ in Horsham Road, which she ran as a nursing home.

That was how I met John Dixon. In 1960, John and I formed a small band and called ourselves ‘The Senators’. Our drummer was a close friend called Richard Hodby who lived in Ewhurst and had also attended Guildford Art College.

Eventually I got fed up with selling menswear and applied for a job as a Butlin’s Redcoat. They were holding auditions in Oxford Street, London, so I took my guitar and sang ‘It’s Now or Never’ by Elvis Presley, which was top of the charts at the time. I got the job and was sent up to Pwllheli in North Wales. It was the first time I’d ever been away from home.

It was quite a hard regime being a Redcoat. We would work on the ground roughly from 7.30am until Midnight, with little time off to relax. We did everything from Ballroom duty, where we were instructed to dance only with the ‘less attractive’ ladies, to Glamourous Granny competitions.

I hear this is one of the main bands around here.”

us, and he contacted Joe Meek, the famous 'Telstar' record producer. We travelled to north London, to Holloway Road to do some recording in his home studio. Joe was a very unconventional man. He’d have us sitting in all sorts of different parts of his flat recording our instruments. He liked to use natural acoustics. I can remember he put the bass player in the bathroom! All the rooms were miked up. We did a few recordings but nothing much came of it. Ken- neth would call him continually night after night and we’d go to Kenneth’s house, desperate for more news.

Finally, Kenneth got us a recording contract with a song he’d written called “Gotta Tell”. The deal was with Jack Baverstock from With Bill Haley in Germany 1966 Fontana Records. Shindigs. We all piled into a van as you did in those days and found our way to a GI Base in Frankfurt, Germany.

So the band broke away from Kenneth King, we really wanted to get away from the set up.

Nevertheless, we left him. Turns out she was right because shortly afterwards “Everyone’s Gone to The Moon” came out under his stage name 'Jonathan King'. Our guitarist Anthony Hawkes, had worked the chords out for this song because Kenneth couldn’t read or write music. He would hum them, and continued on page 16 we’d work out what chord fitted with each melody.

So Kenneth was on his way up when we’d already broken up with him. Later, he brought out a song called “Good News Week”. The credit would’ve inevitably have gone to us if we’d still been involved with him, but in fact it went to a group of RAF guys, 'Hedgehoppers Anonymous' and the record went to number five in the pop charts.

‘Thank you so much Sue, I feel absolutely amazing! For the first time in 10 years I feel normal’. ‘All my bloating has gone and my skin has cleared up. I have more energy and my head is clear!’ ‘I’ve lost 12lbs in weight, my belly fat has shifted and my friends tell me that I’m glowing. Thank you Sue’. “At last I am sleeping properly! Now I don’t dread going to bed every night. Amazing advice, thanks’.

Seeing these reports makes my heart sing! If you’re struggling with bloating, brain fog, anxiety, skin issues, bowel problems, blood sugar issues or anything else then here are some ways that I could help:

1. Complete a dietary health check which involves keeping a 7 day food and mood diary. This is then analysed by myself, with suggestions and recipes given to improve your overall health and wellbeing.

2. Book a personal food shopping experience with me. This is where I accompany someone on their weekly food shop, advising them on how to read ingredient labels, what to look out for and how to make healthy food swops. I also include some relevant recipes.

3. Purchase a 21 day online clean eating plan with weekly menus, all recipes and shopping lists included plus extra advice and content.

4. Join my 8 week online Detox course including weekly challenges, 4 live group calls with me, recipes, loads of content, further reading and more.

The event initially started as the Cranleigh Parish Bound- ary Challenge, before changes to the course resulted in the current route following most of Cranleigh’s northern parish boundary. It mainly follows public footpaths and bri- dleways. With around 1,800 feet of elevation gain for the two-lap marathon course, this running event isn’t for the faint of heart. However, 111 runners completed the one-lap half marathon this year, with Edward Hadley finishing first in 1 hour 30 minutes, 55 seconds, followed by Chris Loffs in 1:35:16, and Matt Brand in 1:39:17. The full marathon was completed by 50 runners, led home by Adam Quinn in 3:13:48, followed by Ben Sunckell in 3:28:08, and Edward Harper in 3:28:41.

It re-emerged from its cloak of industrial buildings in the early part of the 20 Century and served as a residential property until, once again, in 1923, it was hidden from view, disappearing behind the façade of the Cranleigh Motor Works. Realising their predicament, the Co-op approached the Lambert family with an offer of a deal that could be of mu- tual benefit. A land-swap with the potential to develop a new service station. It gave Bryan Lambert the opportunity to continue his business, The Little Manor a safe pair of hands,

Chipstead of Cranleigh where Boots the chemist is now The Lamberts were running Chipstead of Cranleigh, a petrol forecourt and car dealership located where Boots now stands. The business was on the up with a thriving multi-franchise car sales business, car and motorcycle workshops, and extensive land, ripe for further development to the rear. It was this land that also made the premises a very attractive Brewery Cottage - discovered behind the demolished old proposition for supermarket development; something that Cranleigh Motor Co. Ltd. building the Village was short of at the time. Waitrose had already made an approach to the property’s freeholder but Chipstead’s Principal, Bryan Lambert, as part of his contract had the first option to buy. Exercising this option as a precaution he found himself under pressure to sell the premises-on but with the inherent risk of losing his liveli- hood in the process.

Cranleigh Motor Company building in its final days Coincidentally, the Co-op also had their sights on Cranleigh. They had purchased the freehold of the Cranleigh Motor Works site complete with its rather dilapidated, 15th Century, grade II listed building sitting at the centre of the plot.

Bryan, seizing the opportunity, also added a caveat into the deal whereby the Co-op would support the provision of community facilities including the Band Room and Youth Club buildings that we know today. Once Bryan’s intentions for the former Cranleigh Motor Works became public however, there was considerable local opposition to any development of the site and its precious John Wiskar opening the garage with Jonathan and William building. Much work went into placating the community until Lambert - 1989 eventually Bryan was granted planning consent for The Little Manor Service Station. “ I couldn’t wish With the demolition of the workshops located on what is for a better team, they’re like an now the petrol station forecourt, the Little Manor building extension to the family.” emerged, neglected and abused, but saved from collapse by tenacity and imagination. Bryan’s forward-looking plan to renovate the building made it the centre of the business we know today. One of Bryan’s most vociferous opponents at the time, the Mayor of Cranleigh, was so impressed by the final outcome that he offered to officiate at the opening event. The Little Manor Service Station was however, formally opened by Bryan in June, 1989 with the help of sons, Jonathan and Wil- liam, and Cranleigh’s then oldest Councillor, John Wiskar. Much of the shop’s original infrastructure is still in use today, a testament to Bryan’s forward thinking and architect of the business’s success. This success was however, sadly, short-lived for Bryan when in 1993 he was diagnosed with thyroid Cancer, a disease that sapped his energy, leaving his wife, Anna, to take over the reins.

Through honeysuckle breeze, On cool summer nights. Gazing up from Cranleigh Common, Maple trees and cottage lights.

(Seeing with my eyes)

Counting many stars, Looking down on me below. Each with a face I love, From so many years ago.

(Looking with my heart)

Calling my name, With tears in their eyes. All left us far too soon, No time to say goodbye.

(Feeling, oh feeling with my soul)

Now dawn’s breaking, And stars fall into sea. I do hope they will remember, To save a place for me. An excerpt from the book

Cranleigh enjoys the regular live streams from Royal Opera House, but there is nothing quite like the atmosphere of top professional singers in full voice in an intimate auditorium. It is impossible to pick a favourite but the audience enjoyed the tenor/baritone “Duet”Untitled-1 1 29/05/2019 10:37:24 from Puccini’s La Boheme, the “Quartet” from Tchaikovsky’s Eugene Onegin, “Ombre mai fu” from Handel’s Xerxes and “Glitter and be Gay” from Bernstein’s Candide. The performance was full of humour and action, the singers all demonstrating both their virtuosity and their engagement with the audience. They were ably supported by Simo Haynes on piano, who also performed a solo Tchaikovsky piece.
