Keep it well watered at the roots and mulch with some garden compost. It will be powdery Mildew causing the symptoms you describe, the only thing honeysuckle really suffer from. It will come back so don't worry.
I would say it isnt Powdery Mildew. You would have white patches on the leaves.
The chap at the garden centre was right in suggesting Rose Clear as your honeysuckle has black spot, a disease that usually affects Roses.
Most Honeysuckle are quite vigorous so this doesnt tend to trouble them too much.
I agree with Dave, honeysuckle leaves turn grey/black when succumbing to powdery mildew, before the fungus develops its powdery coat.
It affects honeysuckle that has been weakened by drought - honeysuckle, being a plant of damp woodlands likes it's feet to be cool and damp.
The leaves will go crispy and fall off but if you remedy the problem, plenty of watering (not soggy but moist) and shaded roots, the plant will recover.
No need to spray with anything. I believe Roseclear contains a fungicide so it will tackle mould-type problems, but the leaves that already have it will die, and if you cure the problem the new leaves won't get the mildew.
I bought a new honeysuckle this year and I think it had been a bit dry in the pot at the GC - a few weeks after planting it developed powdery mildew and all the leaves fell off, but it is planted in the right place, with shaded roots and moist but well-drained soil and it is recovering with new shoots appearing everywhere. The mildew only appears some time after the problem has occurred.
I do find that some garden centres like to solve your problems by selling you something!
Graham Thomas is a wonderful honeysuckle - I've grown one in a previous garden and it was one of the first plants I planted in this one. I find it takes a couple of years to get going, and then it's simply beautiful - such a good perfume and such elegant white and honeycoloured flowers - a very good choice
Hi, honeysuckle is pretty tough so hopefully yours will recover.
I'm planting another in a very dry area under some trees - when I plant it I'm going to insert a plastic bottle 'funnel' like this
to enable me to direct water straight to the roots of the honeysuckle - I use this method for growing courgettes in raised beds and it gets the water right down to the roots instead of running off the surface of dry ground.
I almost bury the bottle so that only a couple of inches is showing about the soil, so it's not too unsightly.
Just give it plenty of water to make sure the roots are damp and cool - it will recover
good tip Dovefromabove, will try that myself
Hi I bought a honeysuckle from my GC in June and have planted in a large garden tub attached to an archway (hoping that the honeysuckle would climb over the arch)...and at first it romped away but now for the last week I have noticed the leaves turning a dark colour and what looks like a light dusting of fungus on the leaves and the stems ...please help , what is the best thing to treat it with. I have kept it well watered and it gets sun until late afternoon.
It has Powdery mildew - keep the soil moist and the container shaded and cool - (if yuy can plant it in the ground that will be much better) - the leaves will go yellow and fall, but the plant will recover and grow again if you can get the cultural conditions right, see my posts above.
Good luck

An Illustrated History of Old Sutton in St. Helens, Lancashire
Part 26 (of 83 parts) - Pubs and Beerhouses in Sutton & Bold Part 1
Researched and Written by Stephen Wainwright ©MMXVI Contact Me
Researched & Written by Stephen Wainwright ©MMXVI
In 1891 the temperance movement fought back and a petition was handed to the licensing committee signed by twenty-two St.Helens clergymen. They argued that there were far too many licensed houses for the population of the town and they demanded a reduction. They were especially concerned about beerhouses and the clerics hired a solicitor to argue that fourteen of them should not have their licences renewed. The Chief Constable of St.Helens, James Wood, informed the committee that a total of 1354 people out of a population of 71,200 had been summoned for drunkenness during the last year. However, the vicars' petition was rejected by the magistrates, who were chaired by Col. David Gamble and included Sutton's Arthur Sinclair, as none of the beerhouse keepers had infringed their licences.
Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington, was responsible for putting the Beerhouse Act of 1830 on the statute list, keen to curb the rise of gin consumption and bypass local magistrates. Prior to the Act, drinking houses were either taverns or inns. In taverns you only ate and drank but inns also offered lodgings to travellers and could stay open as long as there was an empty bed. Beerhouses were mainly small, converted private dwellings and owners had simply to pay two guineas to the Excise in order to sell beer and cider to the general public from within their property. In 1834 the opening hours for beerhouses within the Prescot division, which included Sutton, were 6am to 9pm from March to September. During the winter months, the hours were 7am to 9pm with the Sunday and Christmas / Easter opening times being 4pm to 8pm. Later legislation placed newly-opened beerhouses under the control of local authorities, who tightly regulated them along with the public houses. The latter were able to sell wine and spirits and were managed by publicans / licensed victuallers whilst beerhouses were run by keepers or beersellers.
The borough licensing committees of around eight to twelve magistrates considered existing licence renewals plus new applications. In 1884 ten St.Helens publicans and nine beersellers were on the committee's "blacklist" for infringing their licence. Also in that year it was revealed that there were more licensed premises in Sutton per head of population than in any of the other St.Helens districts, with Superintendent Johnson informing the committee that there was a licensed house for every 310 persons in Sutton. As well as drinking places being classified by the licensing committee as public houses or beerhouses, there was a third category of off-licences. These were often known as 'grocers licences' and could be off-beer and/or spirit and/or wine licences. During the last 20 years of the 19th century, the numbers of beer and public houses in St.Helens were roughly equal (about 140 each) with only 7 or 8 grocers holding wine and spirit licences. Chief Constable Wood proactively dealt with any infringements of the rules by all categories of licence-holders. Common offences committed were supplying drink to a drunken man, selling adulterated whisky and permitting drunkenness or gambling on the premises. Licence holders were even prosecuted for serving alcohol to police constables on duty!
Throughout the 1890s, there was a gradual reduction in the number of licensed places in St.Helens. In an editorial dated February 8th 1898, the St.Helens Newspaper claimed that magistrates on the licensing committee had for several years 'never hesitated to take any legitimate opportunity which has offered itself to reduce the facilities for drinking in the borough.' The annual licensing renewal days were seen as opportunities to quash the licenses of those who had broken the rules and new licenses weren't available 'either for love or money'.
On September 2nd 1890, builder Peter Tickle, who also had 15 years experience as a publican, applied for a new licence. He was going to build a new pub at a cost of £2,500 at the corner of Watery Lane and Normans Road. St.Helens Corporation had approved his building plans and he had a number of supporters, but his application was rejected. There was a desire to reduce the number of pubs and beerhouses in the town, not build new ones. The Licensing Acts of 1904 and 1910 introduced compensation for pub owners and licensees. This was payable when the licensing magistrates decided that their houses were unnecessary and it also served as an inducement for the surrendering of licenses. This was paid for by a levy on all licenses, which in St.Helens came to £3000 per year. It was under this scheme that the Chester Lane Tavern, Black Horse Inn and Crown Inn in Peasley Cross, amongst others, closed their doors.
This page will attempt to document all public / beer and off-licensed houses that have been situated in Sutton and its outlying areas. Please contact me if you can supply further information and / or photographs. Thank you! Stephen Wainwright
A to Z of Sutton & Bold Pubs and BeerhousesAlexander Vaults - 58 Crossley Road, West Sutton - Licensee in 1882 was Richard Seddon. Wine and spirits delivery man Peter Street was charged with stealing money from the Vaults in February of that year after sending a barmaid down to the cellar to look for empties. Street was cleared of the charge after his defence solicitor argued that the case for the prosecution simply rested on the evidence of two girls. - The landlord in 1891 was James Ashton -
Alexandra Hotel - 14 Fisher Street (off Peckers Hill Road) - Thomas L. Williams surrendered the licence to Thomas Lunt in December 1871 and it was transferred from Lunt to Edward Westhead in July 1877, who was publican for over 30 years. - In April 1899 landlord Westhead was prosecuted for allowing gambling on his premises and was fined 20 shillings. - Closed 7th March 1932
Alma Vaults - 29 Peasley Cross Lane - Not to be confused with pubs in Duke Street, Liverpool Road and Eccleston - John Peel was the beerhouse keeper in 1881 - Closed 11th February 1922 -
Beehive Inn - 268 Berry's Lane, Moss Nook - licence transferred in March 1891 from William Jones to David Chenney, a well-known hackney carriage proprietor. On October 29th 1891 he visited an old water-filled claypit nearby with his son John and a man named Robert Davies, in order to drive home some of his geese which had got loose. Chenney slipped and fell into the pit, which was about 20 feet deep. Despite an attempted rescue by a man named James Rigby, Chenney was drowned. - In October 1892 the licence was transferred from Jane Bryan to Michael Bryan. - On Boxing Day 1894, David Parry of Parr Stocks Road was fined ten shillings for stealing a duck from the Beehive Inn, the property of landlord Michael Bryan. - Then In May 1895 the licence was transferred from Michael Bryan back to Jane Bryan.
Black Horse Inn - 3 Greenough Street, Peasley Cross 200 yards from St.Joseph's Church - It was part of the estate of Joseph Greenough and James Rowe was listed as Beer House Keeper in the 1881 census - The licence was transferred from Rowe to Elisha Leigh Blake in July 1892 and then in December of that year to Harry Knight - In January 1898 Peter Rafter was denied an application for a temporary licence to replace Harry Knight as landlord. Chief Constable Wood objected, telling the magistrates that Rafter was a "betting man". It was alleged that three months earlier he had assisted a gang of Manchester "betting men and racehorse thieves" who had worked a sting on St.Helens bookmakers. They'd had a man at the Post Office and through "some telephonic communication" had obtained race results and then quickly made bets with the bookies. - In September 1904 the license was transferred from Henry Morecroft to John Coan, who had previously worked as a chargeman for colliery owners Richard Evans & Co. - At this time the property was owned by Mr. J. E. Lewis Jnr., a great-nephew of Joseph Greenough, who received £55 per year by renting it to Forshaw's Burtonwood Brewery. - In 1908 the Black Horse was closed as a result of a campaign to reduce the number of drinking houses in St.Helens. Licence renewal hearings on February 17th and April 9th were told that it was not needed, due to there being four public houses, three beerhouses and two grocery off-licenses within a quarter of a mile of the pub. Out of 42 police visits to the house, a total of 156 customers had been counted, making an average of 5¾ persons per visit. The licensing hearings were told that the block of property that the Black Horse served amounted to 207 houses, of which 57 were unoccupied as a consequence of recent mine closures. However over the last three years the pub had still averaged total sales equivalent to 348 barrels per year. The magistrates chaired by the Mayor Alderman Henry Martin refused to extend the licence and referred the Black Horse Inn to the compensation scheme.
The Beehive Inn which was situated at 268 Berry's Lane in Moss Nook, Sutton
Bold Arms - Bold Heath - Referred to in a Leeds Intelligencer article of January 9th 1787 which described how its honest keeper had discovered the sum of two guineas and a half in gold in one of his beds. This had been accidentally left by a traveller. Although the guest had departed, the landlord managed to return the money to him. - In May 1873 the licence was transferred from Robert Rogers to Peter Golden - The Bold Arms Hotel was also mentioned in a Liverpool Mercury article of July 17th 1883 about the Liverpool Amateur Bicycle Club's annual championship race which took place between the Red Lion Hotel, Rainhill and the Bold Arms. - On February 4th 1908 permission was granted to erect a new Clock Face Hotel in place of the existing inn on condition that Messrs. Greenall gave up the Bold Arms and the Bottle and Glass in Eccleston which the company agreed to. -
Boars Head - 675 Elton Head Road, Sutton Heath (formerly Mill Lane) - Research by Paul Allen has revealed that the Boars Head originally had a holding cell for use by the local constables. Their prisoners were held in the cell pending transport to the Raven Inn in St.Helens, where there was a larger holding cell that prisoners occupied prior to being placed before the local magistrates. Paul believes that the Boars Head is one of the oldest buildings in St Helens and could be as old as 1640-60. It was certainly in existence during the 1700s, according to the Michael Hughes letters and colliery records. - Joseph Large was licensee in 1800 - During the 1840s & '50s, the Sutton Heath Dancing Club held their annual ball at the Boars Head - Peter Webster licensee in 1850 - Listed in Worrall's Directory of 1871 - The licence was transferred in April 1875 from John Woodward to William Henry Sharples who was fined £2 in August 1882 for selling adulterated spirits. - William Sharples was still licensee in 1891 - John Knight publican in 1901 census - Closed in 2015 with plans submitted to St Helens Council by Punch Taverns in April to demolish the Boars Head and replace it with a convenience store, small shop and parking area. The St.Helens Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) objected to the proposals saying that the demolition will "leave a large chunk of the town with no pub to forge a community around". Planning permission was granted in December 2015. However the convenience store operator dropped out and at the beginning of January 2016 it was announced that the building had been purchased by Bravo Inns for continued pub use. Renovation took place and the Boars Head was set to reopen on April 14th 2016.
Boilermaker's Arms - 30 Hoghton Road / Norman's Road (in 1901 & 1911 & 1939 census as 96 Hoghton Road) - In August 1882 licensee Catherine Makin was charged with selling drink during prohibited hours, but the summons against her was dismissed. - In September 1890 and again in September 1892, an application by Alfred Hardy to convert his beerhouse licence to a full licence was refused. It was stated in '92 that a new pub was about to be built on the same site. - On January 19th 1891, landlord Alfred Hardy, who was also a coal miner, was fined £2 by Coroner Samuel Brighouse for refusing to participate on an inquest jury. - In August 1893, an application to make alterations to the premises was again refused by the licensing committee. - In November 1897 William Donnellan was fined 5 shillings for being disorderly and refusing to leave the Boilermaker's when asked by landlord Alfred Hardy. He was still the licensee in 1902 when he then had eight children. Hardy gave evidence at the murder trial of James Shaw after Michael Noonan was shot on August 5th of that year after a row in the Boilermakers. - Hardy's son Billy, who was born in the pub c. 1897, claimed to have drunk beer there from the age of five. He became a preacher at the Methodist Chapel in Herbert Street and then the Emmanuel Mission where he preached against the evils of drink. - Bessie and Edward Armitstead ran the pub early in the 20th century and are listed in the 1911 census - Nicknamed 'Arky's' or 'Arkie's'. The monicker was as a result of a customer named Arkwright who kept a regular slate at the pub and one day, unable to pay his debt, had a big argument with the Armitsteads over it. In more recent times, rugby league legend Jack Arkwright kept the Boilermakers and it has also been suggested that the pub was nicknamed after him. 'Big Jack' played rugby league for Warrington and for St.Helens and was the grandfather of Chris Arkwright who played for Saints from 1978–1990. Dave Latham writes to this website:
The Boilermakers in the 1960s - note Bold power station tower on the right - contributed by Dave Latham
Boundary Vaults - 73 Bold Road - Listed in Worrall's Directory of 1871 - On September 23rd 1874 labourer John Dixon of 'Pecker's-hill' died of 'excessive drinking of whisky' after entering the pub already drunk then gulping down half a pint of whisky followed by a gill. 'Immediately afterwards he fell down insensible' reported the Liverpool Mercury (25/9/1874) - In January 1875 the licence was transferred from William Ratcliffe to Mary Greenough with Joseph Greenough licensee in 1891, declared bankrupt in October 1895. Carl Boddy has written to this website to say: "My great-grandfather was Joseph Greenough on my mums side. My mum used to say that her granddad was a drunken old sot who used to drink the pub dry, regularly. That probably explains why he went bankrupt in 1895." Henry Leather took over in 1896 and was still the publican in 1901 and 1911 - On June 4th 1898, Mary Welsh of Neil's Row, Bold appeared in court charged with stealing a tumbler from the Boundary Vaults. She was caught with it in her possession but claimed that the bag she was carrying did not belong to her and she was given the benefit of the doubt by magistrates. - On December 21st 1914 licensee Eliza Leather was fined £2 for serving after hours. She claimed in court that she'd been "stormed" by Bold Colliery miners coming off the late shift who'd just been paid and wanted drink. - Gladys Sutton was licensee in the 1920s and was still there in 1939. - Renamed 'The Sutton Oak' around 1990 despite not being within the Sutton Oak district - In August 2006 it won the CAMRA Pub of the Year award for best pub within the Liverpool district - The Sutton Oak closed c. 2009 and has been converted into offices -

Charles Green was again the licensee and in July 1897 he successfully applied to sell beer at four places at the highly popular Newton Races - William Keenan described himself as 'hotel manager' in the 1911 census and in 1939 it was Arthur Norman - Closed 9th July 2006 -
The Bowling Green Inn at 220 Watery Lane in Moss Nook - not to be confused with the Robins Lane inn
Bowling Green Inn - 125 Robins Lane (no. 93 in 1881 census) - During the 1870s five individuals with the Christian name of James were landlords. This series began in October 1873 when the licence was transferred from Thomas Peers to James Bullen. - In August 1876 the licence was transferred from Thomas James Kelson to James Lawler and then to James Parker in July 1877. In August 1878 the licence was transferred from Charles Turner to James Millward and then to James Birchall, who was recorded as the licensee in the 1881 census. - On May 14th 1883, Alfred Golden applied for the temporary transfer of the licence from Birchall. Superintendent Johnson told the Bench that there was an objection to the application as Golden had married his wife while her first husband was serving 5 years in prison for stealing a horse. She had re-married bigamously while apparently believing that her husband was dead. As Golden's character was considered good, his application was allowed. - James Grice was publican in 1891 and his licence was transferred in 1894 to John Addison - On Saturday night February 4th 1899, elderly Irishman John Matthews entered the Bowling Green drunk and was ordered out by John Addison. In revenge he smashed a window, for which he was fined £1 and costs in St.Helens Police Court and ordered to pay for the damage. - Alfred Hunter was 'licensed victualler' in 1901 and 1911 census - Mr. Baines was licensee c.1930 - Brenda Macdonald writes to this website from Sydney, Australia: "Mum's school friend Margaret Baines was the daughter of the licensee and although Mum was never allowed in the front door of the pub (only children who lived there were allowed), the girls used to play on the footpath outside the pub door, which is now fenced off, and were given milk to drink on hot days." - Widow Ellen Bickerstaffe was the publican in 1939.

Bridge Inn / Tavern - 37 Sutton Road, Peasley Cross near Gaskell Street and the railway bridge. It was said to have been single storey and painted blue and white and was known for having chained monkeys in its back yard. The Bridge was nicknamed 'The Station', apparently due to its close proximity to Peasley Cross Station. - William Newton was licensee in 1861 - Collier John Pickavance was licensee in 1881 - In August 1882 the licence was transferred from Thomas Rigby to George Milne - In July 1884 the Bedford Brewing and Malting Company of Leigh advertised the Bridge Inn beerhouse in the Liverpool Echo offering "low rent; immediate possession". - In October 1884 licence transferred from Joseph Parr to Thomas Halton - in May 1900 licence transferred from Henry Bickerstaffe to Alfred Smith who was still licensee in 1911 - John 'Jack' Ashton was both publican and undertaker - In March 1914 Frederick John Frost of 4 Orrell Street was fined 20 shillings for stealing from the Bridge Inn's till. He was the boyfriend of Ashton's step-daughter and was spotting stealing by Mrs. Ashton. She had concealed herself in the cellar in order to watch the till after money had gone missing. When John Ashton called for the police, Frost bolted over a back wall. - In January 1926 Ashton was made bankrupt. It was revealed at his examination that he was owed £624 for his services as an undertaker from poor people unable to pay for funerals. - Closed 10th August 1929 and became the site of Peasley Cross Labour Club -
Broad Oak - The sole reference to this pub is in a Liverpool Mercury report of April 15th, 1873: 'The license of the Broad Oak, Sutton, was temporarily transferred from William Pilling to William Roberts.' -
Brynn-y-Fillin - Watery Lane (formerly Brynn-y-Fillin road, Moss Nook) - James Yates Jnr. is recorded as taking over the licence from Ann Ingleby in 1892 - In October 1892 the licence was transferred from Yates to Peter Lees.
Bull & Dog Inn - 2 Clock Face Road - Listed as the Bull & Bitch Inn in the 1881 census - John Greenhaugh was the licensee in 1800, James Lyon in 1881 and Thomas Brown in 1891. Brown also owned a barn / shippon (cattle shed) in Mill Lane and on October 15th 1890 it caught fire. The steam fire engine of the St.Helens Fire Brigade extinguished the blaze after an hour, sourcing water from Sutton Mill Dam. - The Bull and Dog was one of the first pubs in Sutton to have a bowling green. In November 1866 the green, then tenanted by William Woods and measuring 1 rood 10 perches, was put up for sale with the suggestion that there were 'valuable beds of fire and pot clay' underneath. - The licence was transferred in April 1893 to Mary Brown who was still there in 1901 - Tom Jones held it in 1914 - Mary Bradshaw described herself as 'Hotel Proprietress' in the 1939 Register.

For a while his sister's son-in-law William Jervis was granted temporary authority until Heyes's 21-year-old nephew James Winstanley applied for the licence in August 1897. The police objected to the application on the grounds that the 'virtual landlady' was Mrs. Winstanley, who since the death of her brother Wm.

Little Pig / Victoria Vaults - 32 Ellamsbridge Road - Officially the Victoria Vaults, it was dubbed 'The Little Pig' and was so listed on the 1881 and 1891 censuses. Until 2013 the pub was unusual in bearing both names but is now known just as The Little Pig. The origin of its nickname was through its proximity to Fletcher's slaughterhouse and the habit of one landlord in accepting piglets from one customer to pay off his slate. - The licensee was James Rainford on the 1871 census - In December 1871 the licence was transferred to Ellen Kenyon from James Kenyon who had obtained the licence in August 1870. - On September 6th 1875 Victoria Vaults licensee Thomas Brown was summoned by John Critchley, landlord of the Mechanics Arms, and his wife Jane for assault. They alleged that Brown with others had entered their pub and attacked them, violently striking Mrs. Critchley over a table and causing much damage to glasses and jugs. Brown was fined a total of £4 5s. for the assaults and damage. - In January 1876, William Ray and Thomas Davies were sent to prison for 12 months and 3 months respectively for stealing 30s. from the pub's till. The two workmen had fled from the pub after being challenged by the landlady Mrs. Brown, leaving a spade and a rake behind. - Licensee in 1881 and 1891 was William Almond - In July 1886 the pub was put up for auction. Adverts described the Victoria Vaults as "commodious", adding that "The premises are in a populous and improving neighbourhood, and are let to Messrs. Greenall, Whitley, & Co. Limited, until the 1st November 1888, at the low yearly rental of £42". - The pub was the home of the local Oddfellows Lodge and the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants also held their business meetings there. - In December 1905 the licence was transferred from Hannah Jane Wood to Harry Wood - The licensee in 1911 was Richard Leadbetter, originally from Neston.

Locomotive Inn - 78 Ellamsbridge Road on the corner of Peckers Hill Road (78 Peckers Hill in the 1871 census where it is listed as Round House) - Listed in Worrall's Directory of 1871 and owned by Greenall Whitley. - The Locomotive was nicknamed 'The Round House' by Suttoners because of its curved structure and was so referred in newspaper advertisements in May 1870 when the pub was offered for sale or to be let. It was described as 'well situated, doing a good business.' - Jeremiah Haslam was licensee in 1871. - Thomas Fenney became licensee during the 1880s after his marriage to Louise Moyers, a relative of the Haslams. Tommy Fenney is said to have let the pub run down and so his wife's niece, Ellen Haslam, assisted by her sister Margaret, were allowed to take it over and are so recorded in the 1891 census - On December 1st 1896, two sinkers at Bold Colliery, Michael Flannery and Lawrence Garrity, got into an argument at the Locomotive whilst having a drink; the row spilled outside and the dispute led to Garrity of Normans Lane, Sutton receiving a serious stab wound to his neck; 'blood', according to the Liverpool Mercury of December 2nd 1896, 'flowed profusely'. In 1900 Ellen Haslam's licence was reviewed after one of her staff sold threepennyworth of whisky to a seven-years-old boy. Chief Constable Wood opposed her licence renewal. He said there was no necessity as there were three fully licensed houses, a beerhouse and an off-licence within 200 yards. As it was proved that the boy had bought the whiskey for a sick adult, Ellen Haslam's licence was renewed. The Mayor Cllr. J. Beecham, as chair of the bench, pointed out that she had a long and creditable record but must be more careful in future. She had been caught in a drive against under-age drinking. In October 1897, the St.Helens Watch Committee had instructed the police to warn all St.Helens licensed houses against serving children under 13 years of age with liquor and in offering them sweets and toys as inducements to enter their premises. - The Catholic Philanthropic Friendly Society was organised by the inn until the scheme's closure in February 1901. - A niece of the Haslams, Anne Mary, was brought up in the Round House and she married brass moulder Charles Heyes. He took over the licence around 1905 and their family of nine was brought up in the pub, although Heyes continued to work at a local foundry. - In September 1904 permission was granted by St.Helens magistrates to turn the snug into part of the vaults - In 1913 Charles Hayes and Jack Yates patented a safety device that was intended to prevent mine cages from plummeting if ropes or chains broke and an improved version was patented in 1921. Heyes became a director of the British Quick Fire Light Company based in Hoghton Road but was made bankrupt in 1924. Charles Heyes left the Locomotive and moved to Croydon to find work - George Almond was licensee in 1939. - About 1949 John Leslie Houghton took over the pub, initially in the name of his wife Ann. He bred and showed Irish Setters and kept dog kennels in the large stables at the rear of the Locomotive. Between 1961 and 1987, John was Chairman and President of St Helens Canine Society and left the pub c.1954. - The pub had its own Old Folk's Club and on August 5th 1952 it held a novelty dog show in the Locomotive's club room for the funniest and cleverest dogs. It attracted 37 entries, with the proceeds from the show going to the Old Folk's Outing fund. - The Locomotive Inn closed during the mid-1970s -

Maytag Salutes: Dr. John and Carolyn Anoskey
13 May, 2014
Dr. John and Carolyn Anoskey
Evansville, Indiana
Why We're Saluting John and Carolyn:
John, a dentist, and Carolyn, a dental hygienist, have been giving the gift of a beautiful smile to the people of Honduras for several years. They have been on multiple mission trips where they serve on the medical/dental teams, visiting the poorest areas of Honduras and providing dental care to those in pain.
At home, John is the medical director for the St. Mary's Mobile Dental Center, a Mobile Dental Bus that visits schools to provide dental care to children – some who may have never been to a dentist before. Since the bus goes to the schools, it makes it easier for these children to see a dentist.
In addition, John and Carolyn volunteer four times a year at Impact Christian Health Center to provide extractions to the working poor or to those who cannot afford dental care. They see around 80-90 patients each time. They explain, "There is such a need out there for dentistry, and so many do not have insurance or have no money, so this is our way of giving back."
John and Carolyn add, "We love what we do and it is a blessing to be able to share our time, talent and treasures with those less fortunate than us. To be able to put a smile on someone's face….to get them out of pain…to help them feel better about themselves gives us such joy."

text: So I'm thinking that I'm in trouble for not getting the Mother's day cards in the mail while driving home. I get Deb onto the tandem and figure we've got a fair shot at getting to the mail box a few miles away before final pick-up. But even though we are cooking, the traffic lights are against us and its becomes obvious that we won't get to the post office in time. Another light turns red up the road. As we do an extended coast-down, I spot a mail delivery truck in my glasses nerd mirror. He's heading in for the day. It's warm and as we match coast-down speed/position he says howdy out his open right-hand drive window. I say "Hey, can I give you two?" He extends his arm, I quick-draw the envelopes from my jersey pocket, make the handoff, yell "Thanks!" and take the immediate right fork to get out to the farm roads. Total exchange took about 3 seconds. Deb says he got a kick out of it. We sure did. And moms will get their cards in time.

Shoppers Drug Mart Corporation Receives TSX Approval To Renew Normal Course Issuer Bid
TORONTO, Feb. 13, 2013 /CNW/ - Shoppers Drug Mart Corporation (the "Company") announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") has accepted the notice filed by the Company to renew its normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") program. The renewed NCIB program commences on February 15, 2013 and will terminate on February 14, 2014, or on such earlier date as the Company may complete its purchases pursuant to a Notice of Intention filed with the TSX. Under the renewed NCIB program, the Company is authorized to purchase up to 10,200,000 of its common shares, representing approximately 5.0% of the 204,071,196 common shares outstanding as at February 6, 2013, by way of normal course purchases effected through the facilities of the TSX. Common shares purchased by the Company will be cancelled. Purchases will be made by the Company in accordance with the requirements of the TSX and the price which the Company will pay for any such common shares will be the market price of any such common shares at the time of acquisition, or such other price as may be permitted by the TSX. In connection with the NCIB program, the Company intends to enter into an automatic purchase plan with its designated broker to allow for purchases of its common shares during certain pre-determined black-out periods, subject to certain parameters as to price and number of shares.

Seasons of the Soul
Holy Saturday: The Space Between
This Lent has been in part for me about dwelling in the border spaces of my life and recognizing those places and experiences that do not offer me easy answers, those fierce edges of life where things are not as clear-cut as I hope for them to be. There is beauty in the border spaces, those places of ambiguity and mystery. In Esther de Waal's rich little book To Pause at the Threshold: Reflections on Living on the Border, she writes that the ability to live with uncertainty requires courage and the need to ask questions over finding answers. I am called to hold the space for mystery within me.
In Living on the Border of the Holy: Renewing the Priesthood of All, William Countryman writes that this border country is one we all carry within us. There is a fault line running down the middle of our lives that connects our ordinary reality with its deeper roots. The border country, he argues, is what gives our lives meaning:
This border country is a place of intense vitality. It does not so much draw us away from the everyday world as it plunges us deeper into a reality of which the everyday world is like the surface . . . To live there for a while is like having the veils pulled away.
Threshold space opens us up to life that is vital, intense, and filled with unknowns. Borders and edges are the places of transformation, transformation that makes demands of us. Jesus' journey in the desert was a willingness to dwell in the border space of that landscape and the walk toward Holy Week often fills me with more questions than answers.
Suggestion for Practice
Much of our lives are spent in Holy Saturday places but we spend so much energy resisting, longing for resolution and closure. Our practice this day is to really enter into the liminal zone, to be present to it with every cell of our being.
Make some time on Holy Saturday to sit with all of the paradoxes of life. Bring yourself as fully present as you can to the discomfort of the experience. Rest in the space of waiting and unknowing and resist trying to come up with neat answers or resolutions. Imagine yourself on a wild border or standing on a threshold, knowing that you cannot fully embrace what is on the other side until you have let this place shape and form your heart. When you notice your attention drifting or your mind starting to analyze, return to your breath and the present moment. Allow yourself to feel whatever arises in this space. Honor the mystery.

Have you ever been with someone and the moment you two started hanging out, you just "clicked"? It feels as if you've known this person a lot longer than you actually have? I'm not talking about infactuation which can be mistaken for the "click".
Did you get into a romantic relationship with this person? How did it go? Was the "click" one-sided?
I experienced the "click" with my ex. Our first date (which actually began as a favor and ended like a date) we talked, laughed, and hooked up and were inseperable from then on. Our relationship had its share of problems and ran its course, which is why we are no longer together.
As I am evaluating all my past mistakes in relationships, it's that "click" that I search for. My last one, I came close to it but the more I think about it, I just think I was in a vulnerable position and wanted it more than it actually existed. I was in love but more so, I was infactuated with a relationship I hoped I could have for the wrong reasons: I didn't want to be alone.*
* Note to self: being alone is not that bad, actually you need this time alone to work on YOU
TBH, for some reason, I don't find myself finding the "click" by someone I meet on-line. Doesn't mean I won't give it a shot, but I'm skeptical....

Using a breast pump to go into labor?
There is no way to know for sure what your baby weighs right now unitl you have it. Big baby or not if it's not sending the signals to go into labor it's not ready to come out. Plus you're going to kill some of your colostrum.
Brianne(21) Chris(25) Married 06/24/11
BWing, CDing, EBFing momma to: Mia 07/18/10 and Ava 10/26/2011
I tried sometime last week. Did nothing for me. you body will go in to labor when its ready and you always have the right to say no to induction and or c/s over the big baby card.
Mommy to Damian 3 and Jade 2 yrs. Angel baby Sept,10
Baby Devin coming soon Oct,2011
You could pump all day long, feel you're in labor, and then get to the hospital, they monitor you for two hours and send you home because it's a false labor. If your body isn't ready to go into labor, it's not going to do it. Our LC said a woman tried to pump early so that her baby would "have enough milk" when they came home because she was paranoid about not being able to breastfeed. She'd go into false labor, get monitored, and then sent home 3 hours later because contractions stopped. It wasn't until they took the class some 3 weeks later that she realized what she was doing - wasting money by trying to deliver early!
It will only put you into labor if your body is ready to go into labor. Not all Drs calll 37 weeks full term, most are saying 39 weeks nowadays. There is a lot of research that shows that babies born at 37 and 38 weeks have many more complications than those that are born after 39 weeks.
I am still nursing my son and he nurses 2 or 3 times a day and nothing has happened at all thank goodness, I am hoping to go a full 40 weeks.
When you are closer to your due date try Evening Primrose Oil (either inserted vaginally or taken orally) and semen also helps get your cervix ready.
It worked for kimbermichelle so why not? It wont work unless baby and body are ready you could also just store and freeze what you get.
One boy 11/2/11 One girl 1/29/15 My heart is full <3
You're not going to get real milk out of your boobies until the baby is born.
Kimber's baby was not ready and had several issues due to being born early.
Bad, bad plan. Just have some sex and walk.
Mommy to Keegan (5) & Archer (Oct '11)
I understand how you feel. This last weeks are the worse. But, try to relax. Try to rest a lot. Write in a journal how you feel. Indulge. And wait. He or she will be here, and they grow fast. Pray.
Good luck
I'll add to the bad reasons for nipple stim for labor induction - it can cause uterine hyperstimulation - just like Pitocin can... which can cause fetal distress.
When we're at the end of the line as far as "about to be induced", nipple stim is probably one of the "better" ideas to use before doing Pit, etc.... but right now, as PPs have said - it is not going to work like it needs to until your body is ready.

hospital bag ready???
I packed babies bag, that was a snap after washing. I put in a handful of diapers and wipes just in case, but I know we'll get some at the hospital. I packed her a couple gowns and a couple sleepers in various nb & 0-3 sizes just in case we have a c-section, I know we'll be there a few xtra days. I also brought her caps, socks, a swaddler, 2 rcving blankets and a warm blanket for the car ride, oh and I'll bring her car seat..haha.
My bag is much harder to pack because I need to use most things in the mean time. My robe, slippers, kindle, toiletries are a definite and then Im thinking a sweat suit for the ride home. I know for sure we need to remember our charging cords and a camera and then hubby needs at least a change or two of clothes and his toiletries too. Goodness there is alot to think of! Feels like we're moving in..haha.
DD Sienna - 1/10/13
Diamond ( o )( o )
Chrissy- why are you letting dh bring xbox? Is he a teenager? If he was focusing more on his score then his wife birthing ya'lls first child I would smash it against a wall!
I would double check to make sure your local hospital has diapers. I'm hearing different things some hospitals do hand them out like candy, others don't.
Don't forget birthplans too.
I'm taking the bare minimal. If I forget/need anything I have my bil that has already volunteered to run home for me!
I'm having baby at a birthcenter so I will be there only 4-6 hours after baby is born so I don't need alot of clothes for baby, dh or me. I'm 33wks I have baby's clothes packed and a couple nursing tee's but need to wash baby clothes. Which I will probably wait until I'm in labor to do because being first time mom we are suppose to be in labor forever it'll give me something to do.
I'm 32 weeks and I'm starting to get all my things together. I have a list and i don't want to miss anything. I just cant believe that that time is here already.

Why does everyone say to use separate bags for baby and mom? Just seems like it's one more thing for me to forget! haha!
And I haven't packed a thing yet. But it's all washed so I guess I'm not a total waste! haha!
FTM Gianna 1/14/13
I really only have 3 pairs of yoga pants and like 4 tank tops in my maternity wardrobe. I plan on bringing that with me, not all of it, but prob half, so I won't pack that until its time to go. *hope its clean*
Otherwise I suppose I could put some socks in a bag, but that's the only thing I don't normally have on me that I'm not going to be using everyday anyway. I may ask my mom to help me pack a bag when she comes for christmas, and get travel size stuff. I suppose since dh will be staying in hospital with me I should talk to him about it too, he'll need a change of clothes and toiletries.
As far as baby goes I have some nb onesies, and the gowns. I need to get some long sleeve 0-3 onesies just in case she's too big for nb, and the ones I have are all short sleeved.

Peter&Katelyn: those were my thoughts exactly lol I would murder my husband if he even thought about bringing his xbox.
dmhooper485: the reason why I will have 2 bags is to keep our things seperate and to have more room. I always over pack because I rather be prepared for anything.
I am 34w6d and just came back from a road trip, so I packed his stuff just incase I had to deliver him on the side of the road, but I didn't wash it yet. My OB told me I didn't have to worry about it until I was closer to 40 weeks, but I will most likely do it this weekend.
I have bought travel size stuff for dh and I and I bought a duffle bag to pack it all in since we don't really own anything besides a few backpacks... Now just need to pack our clothes and grab our pillows on the way out the door!
And get the car seat installed!

Excited to become parents after 8 years and meet Ryder William 01-07-2013!!
just a little heads up the hospital gives you wipes, diapers, and other stuff as well for baby. in my baby's bag i have the picture outfit :) and taking home clothes sizes newborn and 0-3 cuz you never know which they will fit, recieving blankets about 4 i do believe, mittens, hat and her big coat just in case its freezing. For me a nightgown, robe, slippers, socks, my own pads i hate hospital pads, brush, hair ties, deodrant, toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, underwear, camera, extra batteries, phone charger, word cross puzzles, a magazine, baby books so DH can read to baby, fruit snacks, carmax, and going home clothes. For DH i have lots of change in a baggie for vending machines, toothbrush, clothes, socks, underwear, mp3 player, carmax, and i think that's about it. everything is ready to go!!!
I haven't even begun to pack any bags for the hospital. I'm still trying to figure out what I will need exactly. We live a ways from the hospital and I would hate for the hubby to have to make a run home because I forgot to pack something. I should probably get going with my due date only 7 weeks away! I'm a last minute kinda person unfortunately!

I wish Ice king would remember Marceline too.
Very nice.
One of the best eps!
now I wish I had Marcie as a friend.
I think Ice King sings the Fry song because it has to do with her dad and he pretty much took over that role from when she was little.
Saddest episode of adventure time I cried during it well you no every one did
Damn sneaky ninja putting onions everywhere......
Sadly adorable
the feels are coming back!!!!!
Really cute and touching
NnnnuuuuuuuuuNNNUUUUUUUUUUU THHEE DAMN FEEELSSS
So sweet. So sad
And yes, that episode was by far one of the best, as is this little piece you got there. Love it
And yes, that episode was by far one of the best, as is this little piece you got there. Love it
Can't tell you how much this warms my heart.
Ice King will remember Marceline if he takes off that cursed crown
Bellisimo dibujo!!! (*w*)

gah my heart got all warm!
The friendship between Marceline and Simon (aka The Ice King) is so damn beautiful.
aww ^^
((I have this recorded on my DVR))
I love this episode, I love Simon and Marceline, I wish Simon can remember Marcy too! I feel bad for BOTH of them.
I have so many for Marcy and Simon. I mean honestly, these two were dealt the worst hand this show has to offer.
If you know or are related to someone with Alzheimer's, you know what Marcie is going through.
My all time favourite characters in my all time favourite episode in my all time favourite show.. I just love them so much :'/
awesome and funny.
So cute
Ice King is such a cutie! I wanna hug him!
