His daughter, Lynda Clifton, had taken a photo of her dad enjoying a cup of tea and a packet of Tyrrells crisps just after his 100th birthday and had sent it to Tyrrells, based near Leominster . Members of staff then visited Mr Gascoyne at Christmas and gave him a big packet with lots of smaller packets inside of the different flavours of crisps.

Heineken objects to 1,200-homes proposal
ONE of the biggest employers in the county has objected to the 1,200-homes proposal in Three Elms in Hereford. Heineken, which employs 296 people at the Cider Mills in Plough Lane, Hereford and a further 350 within the local supply chain, objects to the proposal to build the homes on a site which is bordered by the A4103 Roman Road to the north and the A438 Kings Acre Road to the south.
Litter, including an old carpet, dumped on the Ledbury to Much Marcle road.
STATISTICS from Much Marcle volunteers indicate that last year was the worst on recent record for littering, along roads near the village. In 2014, Much Marcle Parish Council announced that biannual community litter picks would take place, to deal with the problem.
