  • Blythe Valley Park, Solihull, West Midlands Location
    Blythe Valley Park, Solihull, West Midlands Location Blythe Valley Park is a business park in Solihull in the West Midlands. It is accessed from Junction 4 of the M42, on the A34 Stratford Road between Solihull and Hockley Heath. Post code B90 8AA. Figure 1: Aerial of Blyth Valley Park. (Courtesy of BVP Management Company) Description Blythe Valley Park contains one of the largest and oldest ?SuDS? scheme in England. Several systems of swal es, ponds and wetlands were installed as part of the infrastructure work to protect the River Blythe, a SSSI, from the effects of development on what was formally farmland. Construction started in 1999 and has been continuing since. There are two phases to the overall site ? phase 1 is a partially built-ou t office park, and phase 2 has been subject to some earthworks remodelling and the provision of SuDS for future use. The whole of both development phases now covers some 257 acres. The site is used by the Environment Agency as an exemplar. Figure 2: Blythe Valley Park SuDS Figure 3: Boardwalk through Hawkeshaw Wood Main SuDS used The site lies on impermeable clay, so there is very little infiltration into the ground. The attenuation systems are therefore very extensive. System 1 is located to the west of the business park and System 2 to the north. Both systems work as ?treatment trains? and are comprised of swales that feed thro ugh wet attenuation ponds, into constructed wetlands and ?polishing ponds?, eventually discharging into either the Hawkeshaw Brook (west) or the Illshaw Brook (north).

Unfortunately this edition again includes obituaries but this is also a sign of the club’s heritage and an opportunity to publish some lovely memories of past adventures. You can't fail to notice that cycle cross continues to grow in popularity in the UK and with this in mind I make no apologies for the cycle cross centric nature of this edition, which includes giving the Knights twins pride of place on the front cover. Harrison and Jacob, like many youth riders before them, have been great role models for our younger riders, my son included and with them moving onto their next chapter I’ll just like to wish them all the best with their riding and University life. Let’s also not forgot those club members participating in less high profile events, young and old, who include a couple of youth riders, Nathan Edensor and Jordan Hall-Wallace both active on the track, I hope to bring you reports of their adventures in the next edition.

  • Status Quo – En Studie Av Ett Rockbands Karriär
    “Together We Can Rock´n´Roll” Status Quo – en studie av ett rockbands karriär Eva Kjellander Pedagogiska institutionen/ Avd. för bild, musik och kulturpedagogik Växjö universitet Handledare: Boel Lindberg D-uppsats i Musikvetenskap Ht 2005 2 Abstract Eva Kjellander: “Together we can rock´n´roll”, Status Quo – a study of the career of a rock band. Växjö: Musicology 2005. 80p. The main purpose of this essay is on one hand to try to find and explain the formula of success of the rock group Status Quo, and on the other to elucidate and explain the foundation and essence in the music made by Status Quo, but also to study how, if and why the foundation and essence have changed over the years. The method of investigation is partly based on a musical analysis of three albums from three different periods: Hello! (1973), Ain´t Complaining (1988) and Heavy Traffic (2002), and partly on a sociological study of the group’s career between 1962 and today, 2005. The first part of the essay concerns the period between 1962-1973 with an analysis of the album Hello!; the second part concerns the period 1974-1988 and the album Ain´t Complaining; finally, the third part concerns the years between 1989-2002 with an intensified analysis of the album Heavy Traffic. In the forth part of the essay I discuss the career of Status Quo from a sociological point of view. I run to the conclusion that the essence of Status Quo is the boogie-woogie comp on Fender guitar by Rick Parfitt, the riff on Francis Rossis´ Fender guitar in combination with the base, the piano and the drums.
