Almost anyone can produce a chocolate bar; the difficult part is to produce one that people enjoy and want to eat. It's a fine distinction but the contented slurp - or the Reasonable Prices expectation of it - is the real starting point of our business. If at the end of the day you dislike a product you will simply not buy it. So to be successful, in our & Personal Service terms, means knowing what the consumer wants and providing it: at the right time and, of course, at the right price. Much careful research goes into a product before it appears in the shops. Marketing find out what people like and dislike abouta product; confectioners and designers create the product and the wrapping; accountants cost it; researchers analyse the preparation and if all goes well, buyers procure the raw materials; engineers design the machinery and fitters install it; production make the product, distribution transport it and finally thesales force sells it. It's a long and complicated chain and we have listed only a few of the skills that go into producing a "contented slurp". In short, it takes a lot of people to make sweets that sell well; in fact we employ about 20,000 people in the UK. Although many of Our openings are for graduates (of almost any discipline) we also take on, each year, a small but select number of school leavers whose homes are in the York area.

Drysdale, M.A. Editorial Committee: Bridget Hamilton, Mark Heywood, David Kean, Sophie Atkinson, Adam Stone, Paul Close, Judith O'Reilly, Mark Simpson, Paul Minnighan, Jeremy Atkinson, Paul Moayyedi and Tim Kaner. PREFACE Some years ago The Times adopted a radically different format for its front page. Rolls Royce then dramatically altered the shape of their cars. The world did not stop. Now The Peterite, too, changes. No doubt there will be some who argue that it is foolish to tempt Providence still further and that the world will definitely stop. We hope not. The content of the magazine is much the same as before, although more original entries have been published. The aim of the magazine remains to give as broad a view of all the many activities in the School as possible. We hope that this edition will show the depth of talent and the wide range of activities to be found in the School. The more discerning readers will notice reports of two Speech Days and two Sports Days in the same academic year. This is not in line with Government attempts to increase productivity, but merely an administrative re-shuffle. Lastly, I would like to thank all those who have helped me with the onerous task of editing the magazine. I would particularly like to thank the Editorial Committee and Dave Hughes for helping to select from the large number of poems submitted. The Editor wishes to thank the many contributors to "The Peterite" and would welcome articles of general interest from Peterites past and present. The makers of Colt motor cars have a noticeable interest in styling, a deep-seated interest in luxury a burning interest in economy a dynamic interest in performance, a vital interest in safety and a lasting interest in quality and reliability And of course a ^passing interest in other cars.

The following are extracts from the Headmaster's speech: I am sure it would be right for a Headmaster on his first Speech Day We started the year off well with five awards at Oxford and Cambridge, to look forward as well as back.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • 70Th Anniversary of Coxwold Cyclists Service
    SEVENTY COXWOLD SUNDAYS A HISTORY OF THE ANNUAL CHURCH SERVICE FOR CYCLE TOURISTS 1927/1996 ST. MICHAEL’S CHURCH COXWOLD, NORTH YORKSHIRE. Cyclists arrive at the lychgate ready for the service. Coxwold, 1987. Revd. Jim Thom with The Archbishop of York, Dr. John Habgood. FOREWORD BY THE FORMER ARCHBISHOP OF YORK, DR. JOHN HABGOOD. When people want to give thanks for something they enjoy, it is right that the Church should help them do so. I am therefore delighted to be able to commend this booklet. It tells the story of an initiative almost seventy years ago which blossomed into a tradition and which, for seventy Sundays, has enabled countless people to thank God for the pleasures of cycling, and for the glorious countryside which their cycles have enabled them to enjoy. In a society in which too many people take too much for granted, such acts of thanksgiving are an important corrective. I hope the tradition may long continue. John Ebor, Bishopthorpe Palace, YORK. 1 FOREWORD BY THE VICAR OF COXWOLD, REVD. D.F.JOHNSON, M.A. A view from the vicarage. I became Vicar on April 29th, 1988. They told me "Cyclists' Service in a fortnight". This, of course, was a woefully inadequate briefing and far too late to invite a visiting preacher anyway. Nowadays, when I invite someone to preach, the sort of thing I say is: "This is a festive occasion. The Church will be packed with a crowd of great people of all ages, predominantly dressed in modern cycling dress, which means skin tight gear in lurid colours.

    Welcome to the Diocese of York The Diocese of York is a family of 607 churches and 127 schools in 470 parishes, stretching from the Humber to the Tees and the A1 to the coast. We hope this pack will give you a good idea of what it might be like to live and work in the Diocese of York. Contents: Vision and mission Living in the Diocese Housing and money Ministry together Lifelong learning Spiritual sustenance York Minster Central support Young people Who’s who “We will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.” Ephesians 4:14 & 15 Vision and mission We have a vision of Generous Churches Making and Nurturing Disciples. “We will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.” Ephesians 4:14 & 15 As a Diocese, we want to see our churches making disciples of all ages. We want to see mutual resourcing to build up the Body of Christ, to grow in five areas: • Christ-likeness Becoming like Christ is the fundamental call of Christian discipleship. It is not always easy to assess, but we often recognise the flavour of a life becoming more godly. • Commitment Commitment itself has several features, including: commitment to God, to seeking God’s kingdom, to Christ’s body the Church. • Partnership Working with other churches, locally and globally, with schools, community groups, people, organisations for the common good, peace, justice and a healthy environment.

  • New Bishop of Hull and New Archdeacon of Cleveland
    News from the Church of England between the Humber and the Tees May 2015 New Bishop of Hull and new Archdeacon of Cleveland On Wednesday 25th March, Archbishop Sentamu announced our new Bishop of Hull - the Revd Canon Alison White, and our new Archdeacon of Cleveland - the Revd Sam Rushton. The official announcements were made at Bishopthorpe Palace, where the choir of Archbishop of York's CofE Junior School, Bishopthorpe, sang at a service in the chapel. The Revd Canon Alison White then visited places in her new Archdeaconry - Archbishop Sentamu Academy in Hull, and All Saints Church in Kilham, near Driffield. At Archbishop Sentamu Academy, Alison was welcomed by Principal School, and an amazing afternoon Andrew Chubb and the school's tea (with bubbly) courtesy of All choir, and treated to lunch (and lots Saints Church. of media interviews!).

  • Around the Societies
    The newsletter of the Council of Cricket Societies CCS Editorial address: [email protected] Autumn News 34a Chawn Hill, Stourbridge DY9 7JB 2016 The views expressed in this newsletter are not necessarily those of the Council or any individual cricket society Backspin Magazine The fate of Backspin is still to be determined, though it looks very much as if issue 12 will be the last. This is a great pity as previous issues were chock full, cover to cover, with items of cricket interest of yesteryear, which, ironically, may be one of the reasons for its demise. I offer the following observations. The retro title was launched in 2013 as the sister publication to Backpass, which was founded in 2007. Both titles were published by a small group of enthusiasts, which has now dwindled to just the founder. Backspin is probably unique in that it carries absolutely no advertising, which is crucial for survival. The editor told me that he has to pay a crippling £10k just to put the title on the shelves of WH Smith. Probably one of the biggest causes of failure was that the obvious target market of older cricket followers is largely unaware of the magazine’s existence. I would have thought a mailshot plus a complimentary copy should have been sent to all cricket societies – perhaps it was. Did any society ever receive any mailshots? To quote John Simons, the editor of The Cricket Society News Bulletin, “Backspin packs far more interest in a single issue than in a year’s worth of the competition.” The potentially farewell issue #12 was planned to appear in June (originally May), and actually arrived in July! If you go to Smith’s you’ll have to hunt for it in the larger branches.
